Jarryd Hayne is back in the National Rugby League, less than three months after quitting the San Francisco 49ers so he could make an ultimately failed attempt to play rugby sevens for Fiji at the Rio Olympics.The Gold Coast Titans announced Wednesday that Hayne had signed a two-year contract, and hes set to begin playing this weekend, subject to a fitness test, as part of the deal.Financial details werent disclosed, but Australian media said the contract was worth 1.2 million Australian dollars ($914,000) a season.The Parramatta Eels, the team Hayne began his NRL career with before leaving in 2014 for the 49ers, appeared to have not made an offer, leaving the Titans to add one of Australian sports most recognizable and talented players to their roster. His already high profile was only enhanced by his NFL stint.It wasnt the easiest decision for me to make ... very emotional, Hayne said at a media conference. I never thought Id ever join another club, but I guess everything happens for a reason. A part of me is sad as Im not going to be part of the club I grew up with.So instead of playing for a team based in working-class western Sydney, Hayne will suit up for an up-and-coming side -- the youngest in the 16-team competition -- on the glitzy Gold Coast tourist strip south of Brisbane.Hayne will likely make his debut on Sunday for the Titans, who are at home against the New Zealand Warriors. With five regular-season rounds left in the season, and the top eight teams make the playoffs, the Titans are currently seventh.Just get my body right and get in shape and the rest will look after itself, Hayne said.The 25,000-seat stadium at Robina on the Gold Coast could be filled to capacity to watch the Hayne Plane make his competitive return in Australia.We are expecting a massive turnout, Titans chief executive Graham Annesley said.In mid-May, Hayne announced his retirement from the 49ers in order to push for selection in the Fiji rugby sevens team for the Rio de Janeiro Games.I simply could not pass that chance up, Hayne said at the time. The Olympics has been something I have admired since I was a little boy.The 28-year-old Hayne surprisingly made the initial 53-man roster out of training camp as a rookie running back last year with San Francisco. Playing eight games with one start, he had 17 carries for 52 yards and six catches for 27 yards while also returning eight punts for 76 yards.His rugby sevens career turned out to be even shorter. Hayne struggled to adapt to the pace and fitness demands of sevens -- a modified version of the traditional rugby in which teams play several matches in tournaments which last two to three days.And it didnt help that Fiji has one of the best sevens sides in the world and could win the countrys first Olympic gold medal -- or medal of any color -- when the Rio mens tournament is held from Aug. 10-12.Hayne began his NRL career in 2006, and he scored 103 tries in 176 matches for the Eels. But Parramatta has been involved in a salary cap scandal this season which has seen the club stripped of competition points and had team executives banned.Hayne once wrote a letter to club supporters saying if he ever returned to the NRL, it would definitely be with Parramatta. But those current boardroom dramas appeared to have affected his decision to look elsewhere.The way that the board is, the way things have gone this year ... couldnt get something done, Hayne said Wednesday. Its sad and it hurts me just as much as I know it hurts the fans down there. Tim Howard Jersey . PETERSBURG, Fla.

Freeman hit a three-run homer, Jason Heyward had four hits and the Braves beat the Miami Marlins 9-4 on Sunday. The Braves took two of three in the series. Their 14-game winning streak ended in a 1-0 loss to the Marlins on Saturday night. Freeman said it was important to move past the shutout loss. "When you win 14 in a row, its always a good thing and then the next thing you know you get shut out," Freeman said. "You dont want that to keep going. We wanted to come out here and get some runs on the board early." B.J. Upton drove in the go-ahead run with a sacrifice fly and Chris Johnson hit a two-run double in the four-run seventh inning that broke open a tie game. Evan Gattis had three hits, including his run-scoring double in the seventh. Mike Minor (12-5) gave up four runs on six hits and one walk in seven innings, ended a streak of six straight starts with no more than two earned runs allowed. The Braves trailed 3-0 in the second inning before taking their 38th comeback win of the season, the most in the majors. The Texas Rangers began Sundays games second in the majors with 36 come-from-behind wins. "Theres a lot of trust in our guys," Freeman said. "We never panic. We lead the league in coming back. I think thats just a testament to our team." Braves outfielder Justin Upton left the game in the fifth inning with cramping in his left hamstring. Manager Fredi Gonzalez said its the second time this season Upton has had the problem. "Its just a cramp that he gets every once in a while," Gonzalez said. "Weve got to figure out a way to keep him on the field without cramping." The Marlins have lost seven of eight. Right-hander Henderson Alvarez gave up four runs on seven hits and a walk in six innings. "I thought Henderson was good," said Marlins manager Mike Redmond. "We came out and scored those runs early and we couldnt shut them down. ... Thats a tough lineup to plow through." The game was tied at 4 when pinch-hitter Joey Terdoslavich replaced Minor in the seventh. Dan Jennings (1-3) walked Terdoslavich to start the BBraves four-run inning.dddddddddddd Heyward singled and Terdoslavich scored the go-ahead run on a line drive to left field by B.J. Upton off A.J. Ramos. Following Ramos intentional walk to Freeman, Gattis hit a run-scoring double and Johnson drove in two runs with a double over Giancarlo Stanton in right field. Stanton appeared to lose the ball in the sun. "That seventh inning, we just couldnt stop them," Redmond said. "We didnt execute some pitches and theyve got a lot of weapons over there. And as you can see, they have the ability to do some damage with the middle of their order and we couldnt stop them. Couldnt get them out." Justin Upton left the game after running to first base on an unsuccessful sacrifice bunt attempt in the fifth inning. Marlins catcher Koyie Hill threw out Minor, who was not expecting the bunt, at third base as Upton reached on the fielders choice. B.J. Upton replaced his brother as a pinch-runner. Freeman followed with his three-run homer that gave Atlanta a 4-3 lead. Alvarez escaped a bases-loaded jam in the fourth. Freeman led off with a double and moved to third on an infield hit by Gattis. With one out, Dan Uggla walked to load the bases, but the inning ended on Andrelton Simmons fly ball to shallow right field and Jordan Schafers groundout. The Marlins took a 3-0 lead in the second. Ed Lucas doubled and scored on a single by Jake Marisnick. Hill singled before Alvarez lined a two-run double over Justin Upton in left field.
