TORONTO -- The Cleveland Indians found out that they did not like to lose on Saturday when the Toronto Blue Jays beat them 9-6.It has been a long time since they experienced the losing feeling. It was June 15 when they lost 9-4 to the Kansas City Royals.Between losses they won 14 games, the longest winning streak in club history.Losing is hard, I dont care, Indians manager Terry Francona said after the game Saturday.The loss was only the seventh by the Indians in their last 30 games. Before the Blue Jays used a three-run eighth to beat them on Saturday, they had won eight in a row on the road as well.The Indians were down to the Blue Jays 3-1 and 5-3 and came back to gain a 6-5 lead.We showed a lot of what were about, catcher Chris Gimenez said. We got down a few times early in the game and were able to claw back. Especially after last night (a 2-1 win in 19 innings), I think it could have been easy for a lot of guys to just kind of throw in the towel and say, Hey, well get them tomorrow.I think it shows a lot of what this team is about. Weve got something special going on here.Blue Jays manager John Gibbons was impressed by the way both team played after the marathon on Friday.It was a big game, you could feel it, Gibbons said. Everybody was tired. Both teams were exhausted. A number of guys on both teams were down, things like that.But both teams put on a pretty good show. A good entertaining game. We needed that win more than they did.Gibbons and Edwin Encarnacion missed nearly all of the game Friday after being ejected because they argued balls and strikes in the first inning.Myself and Eeddie were the most rested guys on either team, Gibbons said.Encarnacion made his presence felt in the first inning Saturday with a three-run homer.The Indians will try to start a new winning streak Sunday when they send out right-hander Corey Kluber (8-7. 3.50 ERA) against Blue Jays left-hander J.A. Happ (10-3, 3.70 ERA).Both pitchers were 4-1 in June. The difference is how they did it. Kluber had a 2.19 ERA in five starts, holding opponents to a .154 batting average and a .194 on-base percentage.Happ had a 5.28 ERA in June.Kluber is 1-2 with a 4.82 ERA in three career starts against the Blue Jays.While the Indians have been surging, the Blue Jays have been hanging on. The win Saturday was only their fifth in the last 13 games,The Blue Jays will try to salvage a split of the series Sunday, and get two wins in a row.Josh Donaldson, who tied the game Saturday with a home run and singled in the go-ahead runs, is not fussy. He will take the wins where they come.Any win is important, no matter if youve won 14 in a row or lost 14 in a row, Donaldson said. Its major-league baseball, and its going to come down to the wire. Well take every win.

Paul Pierce couldnt believe he missed at the end.

Cheap Authentic Nike Shoes Online . The 31-year-old Spain midfielder hasnt played since Madrid lost in the Copa del Rey final to Atletico Madrid in May due to back and foot injuries. Authentic Nike Shoes From China . Brad Jacobs and his Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., team took control of the game early. Nick Saban is on the verge of another milestone victory, another number that shows just how dominant his teams have been at Alabama.A victory by the Crimson Tide against Mississippi State on Saturday in Tuscaloosa would be Sabans 40th when Alabama is ranked No. 1, matching Bobby Bowden and Woody Hayes for the most wins coaching an AP No. 1 team.Saban is currently 39-5 in games when the Tide is No. 1. Bowden was 40-5 with Florida State as No. 1. Hayes went 40-6 with Ohio State. The difference? Bowden coached Florida State for 34 seasons. Hayes was at Ohio State for 28 years. Saban is in his 10th season with the Crimson Tide.Alabama has been ranked No. 1 in 33 percent of its 132 games coached by Saban. Florida State was No. 1 in 10.8 percent of the 417 games Bowden coaches. Ohio State was No. 1 in 16.7 percent of the 276 games Hayes coached.One more note on Alabama: The Crimson Tides game against Mississippi State will be its first against an unranked opponent since Oct. 1 versus Kentucky. Alabama became just the third top-ranked team to play and win four consecutive games against ranked opponents when it beat LSU last week.In 1943, No. 1 Notre Dame played ranked opponents in four straight games and beat them all. In 2001, No. 1 Miami had a four-game winning streak against ranked opponents over a five-week span that included an open date.The picks:THURSDAY NIGHT THROWDOWNSNo. 15 North Carolina (minus 10+) at DukeThe Blue Devils need to win out to reach six wins and bowl eligibility, but the path is tough (at Pitt and at Miami after this week) ...
