    FC Dallas . Obafemi Martins also scored for the Sounders (4-3-3), who racked up a third straight win after enduring a five-game winless streak. Johnson' second goal in the 62nd minute game only seconds after Michel had pulled Dallas into a 2-2 tie on an unassisted ...

  • Holland looks to maintain season-long consistency

    In a rotation with two rookie right-handers and a converted reliever, Rangers left-hander Derek Holland has become increasingly important to his team. Delivering a level of consistency so far this season, Holland has tossed seven or more innings and allowed four runs or fewer in six of his eight starts. He'll look to give the Rangers that same kind of boost on Sunday against the Tigers in ...

  • Kinsler out of lineup Murphy hits second

    Email ARLINGTON -- Ian Kinsler was out of the Rangers' lineup for the second straight game with sore ribs Saturday night and with Elvis Andrus bumped up into the leadoff spot again, manager Ron Washington made the surprising move of inserting struggling left fielder David Murphy into the No. 2 spot in the batting order. Washington said Kinsler is available to run or play defense but still ...

  • Martin letting secret out about strong arm

    Email ARLINGTON -- Rookie Leonys Martin's arm is about to be a secret no longer. His bullet, on-the-fly throw to the plate to nail a sliding Andy Dirks at the plate in the third inning Friday night was his team-leading third outfield assist this season. Washington said Martin has the strongest outfield throwing arm on the team and his spreading notoriety may soon make opposing third-base ...

  • Discomfort not something for Ogando to be shy about

    Email ARLINGTON -- Sometimes the language barrier gets in the way but manager Ron Washington says he's pretty sure that Alexi Ogando now understands that it's his responsibility to let someone know if he's having some sort of discomfort, even if he's experienced it before. Ogando landed on the 15-day disabled list this week with some biceps soreness in his pitching arm that ...

Poseidon

Poseidon

The disaster genre, specifically as formulated and perfected by producer/director Irwin Allen in the early 1970s, has to be one of the most masochistic of film genres.

  • Burns making bullpen decision harder for Rangers

    ARLINGTON -- Called up as an extra reliever when starter Alexi Ogando was placed on the disabled list, right-hander Cory Burns has given manager Ron Washington something to think about when the team has to send someone out Monday to make room for starter Josh Lindblom, who is coming up from Triple-A Round Rock to start against the A's.

  • Thunder not considering amnesty clause for Kendrick Perkins MAY 18

    Kendrick Perkins will be leaving Oklahoma City soon. Thunder GM Sam Presti said Saturday the team hasn't even considered using the amnesty clause on the embattled big man, despite the apparent deterioration in his performance the past few years. Once considered a talented defender, the kind of physical presence OKC would need to win postseason games, Perkins has devolved into an utterly ...

This is presumably good news as the future Hall of Famer contemplates whether he'll return for an 18th NBA season or decide to call it quits following the team's brief trip to the postseason. Garnett, 36, battled ankle issues throughout the ...

  • Sounders FC vs. FC Dallas preview and prediction

    M David Ferreira — The league’s MVP in 2010 missed last week with a leg injury, but it sounds like he should be back in the lineup. He, of course, scored here in 2010, an 87th-minute equalizer to sent the Sounders to 4-8-4 on the season (Seattle went on to close the season on a 10-2-2 run). He’s the engine in the attack, so much so the team runs more of a 4-2-3-1 formation ...
