TAMPA, Fla. -- Sidney Crosby had another eventful night.The Penguins star returned after passing concussion protocol following a first-period hit to get his 20th goal, and that stoked Pittsburghs rally for its latest victory.Crosby and Evgeni Malkin both scored their second goals on third-period power plays, helping the Penguins come back to beat the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-3 on Saturday.Crosby was shaken up by Luke Witkowskis check with eight minutes to go in the first but returned for the start of the second period.It was just kind of a stinger in my neck, Crosby said. I got jammed.It was the first meeting between the teams since the Stanley Cup champion Penguins beat Tampa Bay in a seven-game Eastern Conference final last season.Pittsburgh, which won its fifth straight game, got three assists each from Phil Kessel and Kris Letang. The Penguins are 6-6-1 when trailing after two periods.After going 1 for 30 on the power play over the last nine games, Pittsburgh converted 3 of 5 chances Saturday.Im not going to sit here and say it looking pretty early and we knew it was coming, Crosby said. But (later) we had some really good looks and we put them in.Tampa Bays Jonathan Drouin had the first of his two goals shortly after getting cut by a high-stick. Valtteri Filppula also scored for the Lightning, who are 1-6-1 over their last eight games.Teams go through these situations, Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper said. Theres a lot of hockey left to play.Matt Murray made 20 saves for the Penguins, and Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped 33 shots for Tampa Bay.After Crosby pulled the Penguins even at 3 with his 20th goal at 5:08 of the third, Malkins right-circle shot with 11:24 left gave Pittsburgh a 4-3 lead.Malkin has 111 power-play goals, which moved him past Jaromir Jagr (110) and Kevin Stevens (110) into second on Pittsburghs career list. Mario Lemieux tops the list with 236.Crosby opened the scoring 12:03 into the game, diving toward a loose put and putting it past Vasilevskiy.The first goal he got, for me, personifies his compete level, his willingness to go to the battle area, Penguins coach Mike Sullivan said.Crosby has a goal in three straight games and a seven-game point streak (six goals, 12 points).Tampa Bay got a 4-minute power play late in the first after Drouin was cut below the left eye by a high-stick by Malkin. Drouin returned soon after and tied it at 1 from the left circle with 2:03 left.Drouin put the Lightning up 3-1 midway through the second by lifting a backhander past Murray.I think we were in it physically and emotionally, Drouin said. But you cant give that team too many chances.Murray made a terrific glove save along the goal line on Filppula in the third.I think I was pretty lucky, Murray said.Game notes Pittsburgh has outscored opponents 39-17 in the third period. ... Malkin has a 13-game point streak against Tampa Bay (15 goals, 30 points). ... Lightning RW Ryan Callahan missed his sixth straight game. He has played in just 15 games since offseason hip surgery.UP NEXTPenguins: Play Arizona on Monday night in the first of three straight games at home.Lightning: Start a three-game trip Wednesday night at Calgary.

The league has discussed placing its next two expansion teams in Miami and Atlanta. SAN FRANCISCO -- Madison Bumgarner is expected to be named to the National League All-Star team when the rosters for next weeks annual midseason classic are announced Tuesday.Bumgarner is a strong candidate to make the team. He will take a 9-4 record and 2.20 ERA into Tuesdays matchup with the Colorado Rockies.Then later in the day, San Francisco Giants manager Bruce Bochy is expected to announce why his ace left-hander wont be playing next Tuesday in San Diego.Bochy hasnt disclosed his pitching plans for the clubs three-game series against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday through Sunday that will take the Giants into the All-Star break.One things for sure: Right-hander Albert Suarez wont be in the rotation.Suarez, who has been serving as Matt Cains injury replacement in the rotation, was demoted to Triple-A Sacramento on Monday, an indication that either Cain will return from his strained right hamstring this week or the Giants will go with a four-man rotation through the weekend.Cains return isnt likely. Bochy has indicated hed like to see the veteran take his regular spot in the rotation following the All-Star break.Being that the Giants have a day off Thursday, a four-man rotation would put Bumgarner in line to pitch Sunday. That would make him ineligible to pitch in the All-Star Game.Bochy said many factors -- but not whether he makes the All-Star team -- will go into deciding if Bumgarner is called upon to start Sunday.Your priority is here, the veteran manager insisted. You want these guys to have a chance tto pitch in the (All-Star Game).dddddddddddd But youre here to win and maybe win a championship.You cant change your rotation around so they can pitch in it.The Rockies will counter with an All-Star candidate of their own Tuesday, right-hander Tyler Chatwood.

Ten National Leaguers began play Monday with more wins, including Bumgarner and Los Angeles Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw, who is injured.Interestingly, Chatwood also is scheduled to pitch Sunday when the Rockies, who have seven games this week, conclude the first half at home against the Philadelphia Phillies.Colorado manager Walt Weiss has not announced what he would do if Chatwood were to get selected to the NL squad.Weiss has other more immediate concerns. His club recorded only six hits against six Giants pitchers in a 3-1 loss Monday after having been held to a total of two runs in three straight defeats to the Los Angeles Dodgers in a series that ended Sunday.I thought our approach was better, Weiss said of his offense in Mondays opener in San Francisco. We swung the bats better, but not well enough to put together a big inning.The Rockies welcomed shortstop Trevor Story back into the starting lineup Monday, but it didnt help.The rookie standout went 0-for-3, walking once and striking out for the 106th time this season.
