Kevin Glenn rallies Lions late to knock off Stampeders

The B.C. Lions welcomed a dose of confidence from a 25-24 win over the Calgary Stampeders on Friday. A week ago, the Lions felt rather demoralized.

B.C. scored the fewest points in a game in almost three decades in a 23-6 home loss to Winnipeg in Week 5. Trailing Calgary by 11 points at the half Friday, the Lions offence came to life.

Andrew Harris rushed for a four-yard touchdown and Ernest Jackson scored on a 65-yard catch in the fourth quarter to claw out the victory.

B.C. improved to 3-3 and handed the Stampeders their first loss of the season. The Winnipeg Blue Bombers top the Canadian Football League's West Division at 5-1 ahead of Calgary at 4-1.

Cornerback Ron Yell scored a touchdown for the B.C. defence by running back a 35-yard interception in the first quarter. Kicker Paul McCallum was good from 45 and 21 yards in the game.

'It was a big character win for us and I think this is what we needed, against this type of team and this kind of atmosphere and environment.'- Lions QB Kevin Glenn on the team's win over Calgary

Former Stampeder Kevin Glenn completed 22 of 32 passes for 277 yards and a touchdown in his return to McMahon Stadium. He was intercepted once.

"It's a big emotional win from last week to this week, to do what we did against this type of team," Glenn said.

"It was a big character win for us and I think this is what we needed, against this type of team and this kind of atmosphere and environment. We were down 11 points at halftime and we fought back in the second half to come away with a victory."

Well-travelled

Glenn quarterbacked Calgary to 20 wins in two seasons, including a trip to the Grey Cup in 2012, before he was claimed by Ottawa in the expansion draft. He was dealt to B.C. earlier this year.

But in the decade before joining the Stampeders, the 35-year-old had never won at McMahon as a visiting quarterback until Friday. His record is now 1-8 wearing enemy colours in Calgary.

Stampeders quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell made 21 of 31 pass attempts for 227 yards and a touchdown. His first interception this season was costly as Yell parlayed it into a touchdown in the first quarter

Calgary defensive back Keon Raymond picked off his former teammate in the second quarter for a 63-yard touchdown. Marquay McDaniel had an 18-yard touchdown catch and backup quarterback Drew Tate capped a scoring drive with a one-yard dive.

Rene Paredes was good on his one 35-yard field-goal attempt in front of an announced 27,266.

Harris's four-yard scoring run at 5:01 of the fourth quarter pulled the visitors within two points. B.C. failed on their two-point convert attempt.

Paredes gave the hosts some breathing room at 9:02, but Glenn combined with Jackson for the eventual winning touchdown at 13:28.

Costly turnover

The Stampeders pushed into B.C. territory in the final minute for the winning field goal, but Calgary turned the ball over on an Anthony Parker fumble.

"I was not disappointed with the way we played," Mitchell said. "We lost the game though so there's obviously things we've got to do better.

"I thought we had control the entire time. There were some small things in the end that we let go."

Harris finished with 70 yards on 15 carries.

"We just had to man up a little bit," the CFL's leading rusher said. "A lot of times we'd look around for someone else to make the play and we decided to collectively get it together. It wasn't a pretty win, but we got together and made it happen."

"This game was a must-win for us. To knock off an undefeated team that's the best in the CFL, we weren't playing so well last week, so to win this on the road against the best team we're feeling pretty good about it right now."

Martell Mallett rushed for 116 yards in his first CFL game since 2009 when he was Lion. He was named the league's rookie of the year. He filled in for halfbacks Jon Cornish and Matt Walter, who are both out of the lineup with concussion symptoms.

Cornish, the CFL's most outstanding player and leading rusher in 2013, is on the six-game injured list. Mallett averaged 10.3 yards on 10 carries and fumbled the ball once.

"I feel like I did OK, but there was a lot I left on the field," Mallett said. "I wanted to come out and get a 'W". I didn't want to come back in the locker room 4-1 after my first game. I wanted to come in 5-0.

"That didn't happen. I have to get better as an individual and we have to get better collectively."

The Lions host the Hamilton Tiger-Cats next Friday with the Stampeders at home to the Ottawa Redblacks the following day.

Canadiens vs. P.K. Subban: What’s next?

Poll

Can the two sides patch things up?

CBC Sports Posted: Aug 01, 2014 8:04 PM ET Last Updated: Aug 01, 2014 8:26 PM ET

Both parties have drawn their lines in the sand, and now it's up to an arbitrator to pick.

Defenceman P.K. Subban and the Montreal Canadiens went to a salary arbitration hearing in Toronto on Friday because of a salary impasse.

Subban is asking for $8.5 million US, while the Canadiens countered with $5.25 million. Regardless of the outcome, the process has become very personal, according Hockey Night commentators Elliotte Friedman.

He continues: Everyone tries to keep it professional, but it's hard. Lawyers are lawyers, they do this for a living, trying to be as dispassionate as possible. But for players — like Subban and Habs GM Marc Bergevin — this is harder. It's not what they are trained to do.

Here's a video by Canadian Press hockey writer Stephen Whyno that shows a subdued Subban discussing his first – and hopefully last – arbitration hearing.

But how can Subban and Bergevin patch things up moving forward?

Vote in poll below and have your say in the comments section.

How would you like the P.K. Subban-Habs stalemate play out?

Astros end Blue Jays' six-game winning streak

Gregorio Petit's wife Yessica didn't come to Friday night's game because she had a headache.

She thoroughly regretted her decision after Petit hit his first career home run to help the Houston Astros to a 3-1 win over the Toronto Blue Jays.

The homer put Houston on top in the eighth inning and the Astros held on for the victory, snapping Toronto's six-game winning streak.

"My wife is mad because she didn't come to the game," Petit said. "I got like seven messages, all smiling faces. It wasn't really smiling, but crying faces all over in my phone. (She said) I won't forgive myself for this. I missed the first one.

He tried to console her.

"It's OK," he said he told her. "You could YouTube it."

The game was tied at 1-1 when Petit launched Aaron Loup's first pitch into the first row of the Crawford Boxes in left field to give the Astros the lead. Jose Altuve connected on the next pitch by Loup (3-3) for a ground-rule double before stealing third base.

"I threw two pitches and the next thing you know I give up a home run and a double," Loup said. "I guess it just wasn't my day today."

Houston got an insurance run on a sacrifice fly by Robbie Grossman.

Jose Veras (1-1) got the last two outs of the eighth inning for the win and Chad Qualls threw a scoreless ninth for his 12th save.

Melky Cabrera singled with one out in the first and reached third on a single by Jose Bautista that crashed off the wall in left field and knocked a number out of the scoreboard there. The Blue Jays took a 1-0 lead on a sacrifice fly by Dioner Navarro.

Toronto starter J.A. Happ gave up three hits and one run with six strikeouts in seven innings.

Happ retired the first 11 batters he faced before Chris Carter singled on a dribbler with two outs in the fourth inning. Matt Dominguez drew a walk before Carter scored on a single by Guzman to tie it at 1-1.

Houston starter Collin McHugh did not factor into the decision after allowing five hits and a run in 6 1-3 innings to remain winless since June 3.

Jake Marisnick, acquired Thursday from the Marlins as part of a six-player deal that sent right-hander Jarred Cosart to Miami, went 0 for 3 in his Houston debut.

Mound work

The game was delayed in the third inning when the Astros complained about the mound being too soft. Three members of the grounds crew came onto the field with rakes and other tools and worked on it for several minutes.

McHugh threw a few warmups pitches after they finished and the crowd cheered as the workers walked off the field and the game continued.

Spelling test?

The Astros had a bit of fun teasing rookie pitcher Mike Foltynewicz about his difficult to spell last name on his first day in the clubhouse after being called up from Triple-A on Friday. They used tape to spell his name phonetically (Fultynevichz) and affix it to the nameplate above his locker. He got a good laugh out of the ribbing and said there's no trick he can give them to help make spelling it easier. "I had trouble when I was younger, too," he said. "I don't think anybody's going to really get it right ... they can just keep it nice and short and call me Folty."

Trainer's room

Blue Jays: Infielder Brett Lawrie (broken right index finger) began a rehabilitation assignment with Class A Dunedin on Friday. Manager John Gibbons said he will probably need at least a week of rehab games before he's ready to return to the team.

Astros: Rookie OF George Springer, on the disabled list since July 20 with strained left quadriceps, is inching closer to his return. "He's taking batting practice," manager Bo Porter said. "He was able to do the outfield work (Friday). So we're pretty excited that he's coming along well."

Guzman left the game after the fourth inning with back spasms. He was replaced at 1B by Jon Singleton.

On deck

Toronto's R.A. Dickey looks for his third straight win when he opposes left-hander Brett Oberholtzer when the series continues on Saturday. Oberholtzer is coming off a win over the A's when he allowed three runs in 6 2-3 innings.

Blue Bombers stage last-second win over Tiger-Cats

Written By Unknown on Jumat, 01 Agustus 2014 | 21.22

Drew Willy did it again.

Willy's two-yard TD pass to Nic Grigsby on the final play rallied the Winnipeg Blue Bombers to a stirring 27-26 comeback win over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats on Thursday night. Grigsby's catch capped an impressive 11-play, 95-yard drive that began with 1:40 remaining and ended with Lirim Hajrullahu's winning convert.

On July 11, Willy's 17-yard TD pass to Julian Feoli-Gudino with 28 seconds left gave the Bombers a 34-33 road win over the Montreal Alouettes. Feoli-Gudino had a hand in Thursday's victory, his clutch 22-yard catch putting Winnipeg (5-2) at the Hamilton two-yard, nice redemption after losing a fumble earlier in the quarter to end a promising drive.

"We did it before against Montreal so I was saying in the huddle, 'Hey, we've been in the same situation before. Let's just go down there and get a touchdown,' " Willy said. "I think every single guy had a piece of that drive, it was impressive to be a part of.

"That's everything a quarterback wants, you just want the ball in your hands to give your team a shot to win. Guys were just making terrific plays out there."

Willy's winning pass was hardly a thing of beauty. It was a high, fluttering throw into coverage that hung up in the air seemingly forever before falling softly into Grigsby's hands.

"I was looking at Denny (Clarence Denmark) in the corner and I knew I had Grigsby in the flat and saw both were covered," Willy said. "I just wanted to give enough air where those guys go up and make a play and luckily Grigsby came away with the ball.

"I'm not going to say it was a skillful play because it really wasn't. We practise it all the time, we just made a play and sometimes that's how it goes."

Willy finished 31-of-41 passing for 361 yards and a TD. Former Ticat Aaron Kelly had seven catches for 101 yards — both game highs — while Grigsby ran for 56 yards and a TD on 13 carries and added six receptions and 63 yards.

Rookie Quincy McDuffie's 66-yard punt return TD at 2:15 of the fourth earned Hamilton a 24-20 advantage, its first lead of the game. McDuffie, making his CFL debut, delighted a Ron Joyce Stadium gathering of 6,500 that was forced to endure a horrendous first half by the Ticats (1-4).

Hamilton managed just two first downs and 22 net yards in the first half after registering two TDs and 158 yards on its first five plays in a 33-23 home win over Ottawa on Saturday night. And when Grigsby put Winnipeg ahead 20-3 with a 16-yard run at 2:38 of the third, it looked like the game was over.

But quarterback Dan LeFevour — who threw for 361 yards and a TD and ran for 109 yards and a touchdown against Ottawa — hit C.J. Gable with a 48-yard scoring strike at 6:35. LeFevour, the CFL's offensive player of the week, scored on a two-yard run 12 seconds into the fourth to cut Hamilton's deficit to 20-17 before McDuffie's electrifying return.

Hamilton went ahead 26-20 after Hajrullahu was forced to boot the ball out of the end zone for a safety following a high snap at 3:53. Feoli-Gudino then fumbled after a nine-yard catch that Rico Murray recovered at the Hamilton 31-yard line with under six minutes remaining.

"It's a good win for us but we don't want to keep having to do it that way, that's for sure," Bombers head coach Mike O'Shea said. "We recognize we made some mistakes . . . it looked like Hamilton was ready to take it but these guys just believe in each other and no one gave up.

"When you get guys who are going to stick with their teammates, who are going to stick together, it's a great thing."

Hamilton's offence, which had over 550 yards against Ottawa, mustered just 218 net yards against Winnipeg. Willy and Co. rolled up 396 net yards offensively.

LeFevour was impressive in his CFL debut as a starter against Ottawa but wasn't nearly so prolific against Winnipeg. He finished 19-of-33 passing for 189 yards with a TD and interception while running for just 15 yards on five carries.

LeFevour was a dismal 4-of-12 passing for a paltry 17 yards in the first half but head coach/GM Kent Austin didn't blame his quarterback for the offence's early struggles.

"It wasn't Dan in the first half," Austin said. "No quarterback is going to be consistently in second and long against a defence like that and string first downs together."

Instead, Austin blamed much of the loss on penalties as Hamilton was flagged 19 times for 114 yards.

"We're not a good enough football team to overcome penalties," Austin said. "We're not that football team and I told the guys we play with great effort, we're very resilient, we play hard, we play for 60 minutes but we can't get penalized like that."

Robert Marve had Winnipeg's other touchdown. Hajrullahu booted two field goals and the converts.

Jays' Nolan Reimold sinks Astros with 2 home runs

Nolan Reimold found out he was starting right before batting practice Thursday night. He made the most of the chance to play.

Reimold hit two home runs, including a tiebreaking solo shot in the ninth, and the streaking Toronto Blue Jays rallied for a 6-5 win over the Houston Astros.

Reimold was claimed off waivers on July 6 after he was designated for assignment by Baltimore. It was just his fifth start with Toronto.

Manager John Gibbons said the Blue Jays got Reimold and Danny Valencia for a reason. Valencia, who was acquired in a trade with Kansas City on Monday, had two hits.

"They've both played in the big leagues and had some success and they're both going to help us out," Gibbons said.

Reimold's first homer came in the fifth and cut Houston's lead to 4-3. His second homer of the season was off Chad Qualls (1-3) and sent Toronto to its ninth win in 10 games.

It was Reimold's second career multihomer game and first since May 26, 2011.

"I was trying to be aggressive," Qualls said. "I just wanted to be really aggressive with the fastball to get ahead. He ambushed it and hit it over the fence."

Reimold has been hampered by an assortment of injuries the last two years. He said Thursday night helped show he might be back.

"It's been two years since I could say that I feel like I am good enough to play again," Reimold said. "It's been a long process, so hopefully, all the work I did to come back pays off."

Jose Bautista and Dioner Navarro also had solo homers for Toronto. Bautista connected for his 21st homer in the first, and Navarro tied it at four with his eighth in the sixth.

Aaron Sanchez (2-0) threw two scoreless innings for the win, and Casey Janssen pitched the ninth for his 18th save.

Jon Singleton homered for Houston, and Robbie Grossman had two hits.

"Their four solo home runs proved to be the difference in the game," Houston manager Bo Porter said. "They're definitely a power-hitting team."

The Astros scored three times in the third to open a 4-2 lead. Grossman and Marc Krauss each hit an RBI single off Drew Hutchison, and Jason Castro had an RBI double.

Hutchison was charged with four runs and six hits in three innings. He is 2-5 with a 6.64 ERA in his last eight starts.

Gregorio Petit's run-scoring groundout gave Houston a 5-4 lead in the sixth, but Bautista tied it again with a sacrifice fly in the eighth.

Jake Buchanan started for Houston after scheduled starter Jarred Cosart was dealt to Miami earlier in the day. Buchanan allowed three runs and five hits in five innings.

Trainer's room

Blue Jays: First baseman Dan Johnson was placed on the 15-day disabled list with a left hamstring strain. The Blue Jays recalled right-hander Chad Jenkins from Triple-A Buffalo.

Astros: Either outfielder George Springer, who has been on the disabled list since July 20, or Dexter Fowler, who has been on the DL since June 27, could go on a rehab assignment during the next road trip, which starts Monday, Houston general manager Jeff Luhnow said.

On deck

Left-hander J.A. Happ (8-5, 4.58 ERA) starts for Toronto on Friday against his former team. The Astros are sending right-hander Collin McHugh (4-9, 3.45 ERA) to the mound.

Rasmus scratched

Toronto outfielder Colby Rasmus was scratched for being late to the stadium. "I wasn't here when I was supposed to be here, and they punished me as they should have," Rasmus said. Anthony Gose started in centre field, and Rasmus entered in seventh as a defensive substitution.

Houston trade

Houston acquired outfielder Jake Marisnick, infielder Colin Moran and right-hander Frances Martes as well as a 2015 compensatory draft pick from Miami for right-hander Jarred Cosart, infielder Kike Hernandez and outfielder Austin Wates.

Right-hander Brad Peacock, who was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday, will likely take Cosart's place in the Houston rotation, Luhnow said.

P.K. Subban 'very, very, very' likely to stay with Habs, he says

The fate of P.K. Subban has been the talk of Montreal for weeks now, but the Canadiens' star defenceman has remained tight-lipped as negotiations continue over his contract.

Subban is scheduled to go to arbitration on Friday unless he can ink a new deal with the club before then.

The 2013 Norris Trophy winner is asking for $8.5 million for one year, according to Hockey Night in Canada's Elliotte Friedman.

Subban took a break from the salary speculation today to take fan questions on CBC Montreal's Radio Noon. 

Here a five of the best ones:

Q: Who do you like playing against the least and the most in the NHL?

A: That's a very good question.… You know what? I enjoy playing in Toronto. It's my hometown and I always have a lot of family and friends there.

Where do I not like to play? I don't think there's a place in the league that I don't like to play. I enjoy going into everybody's building and I enjoy winning in everybody's building. I try and take that positive approach when I go on the road.

Q: Aside from being with the Habs, what do you like about living in Montreal?

A: The culture, the city, the way people embrace each other. I think Montreal is such a friendly place to be, but it's very European. I like that European style. I like their lifestyle here. It's a fun lifestyle to be a part of and to live and I think they live life the right way. I've been here for four years. I've been coming to Montreal for the past seven years and it's definitely one of my favourite cities to be in.

Q: If you could play with any defenceman from any era, who would it be?

Definitely Bobby Orr. Statistically and probably favourite as the best defenceman of all time. I figure that I'd be able to win a lot of Stanley Cups if I was able to play with him.

Q: Who on the Habs has the best nickname?

A: I like Carey (Cash) Price. Nobody calls him that but me. Carey (Cash Money) Price, CP, CPizzle. His last name is Price, so anything to do with money, I just flow it into his nickname. I've got many other nicknames for him as well, but I probably shouldn't say them on air.

Most of the guys call me Sizzle. I'd like them to call me Subbanator, but they don't. The only person that calls me Subbanator or Subbatron is Colby Armstrong, but he's not on our team anymore. But most of the guys on our team call me Sizzle.

Q: Could you give a percentage chance that you think you'll be back with the Montreal Canadiens next season?

I would say that there is a very, very, very good chance that I'll be back. It's a place that I want to play and I think I've made that pretty clear, so I have no reason to believe that a deal won't get done and I'll be back with the Montreal Canadiens.
