BOSTON -- Rick Porcellos performance has flown under the radar this season.He didnt make the American League All-Star team despite a 10-2 record and 3.82, but hes been one of the bright spots for a shaky Boston Red Sox pitching staff.Porcello will try to keep that trend going in Saturday afternoons game against the Tampa Bay Rays at Fenway Park, the second of a three-game series that takes both teams into the All-Star break.After signing a five-year, $82.5 million deal before even throwing a pitch and struggling through a 9-15 campaign last year, nobody knew what Porcello would give the Red Sox going forward.Thus far, Boston has received 10 victories from a pitcher who won 15 games with the Detroit Tigers in 2014.Porcello is 4-0 with five no-decisions in his last nine starts. He gave up 12 hits and four runs (three earned) in six innings against the Los Angeles Angels last Sunday, but cruised behind his teams 21-hit attack, adding another notch to his Fenway belt.He did bend, he didnt break, Red Sox manager John Farrell said that day, noting, Pors has been extremely comfortable at home here.He is 7-0 in eight starts at Fenway Park, making him one of three pitchers in the major leagues without a loss in the first eight home starts of the 2016 season.Porcello is 2-0 with a 2.77 ERA against Tampa Bay this season and 7-4 lifetime, and his seven straight quality starts against the Rays is the longest active streak in the big leagues.Tampa hitters have some impressive numbers against Porcello. Evan Longoria is 8-for-13, Logan Forsythe is 6-for-17 and Steven Sousa Jr. is 6-for-15.Brad Miller is 2-for-8, but both Miller hits have been home runs.Meanwhile, the Red Sox are dealing with all kinds of injuries as they look to complete a 6-2 homestand -- losing All-Star utility man Brock Holt, among others, to a left ankle sprain in Fridays 6-5 win.Rays left-hander Matt Moore, still completing his comeback from Tommy John surgery that ruined his 2014 and 15 seasons, has won two straight starts for the first time since Sept. 24 and 29, 2013.On Saturday, he hopes to give Tampa Bay its fourth win in its last 24 games.He has thrown at least six innings in six straight starts and is 3-1 with a 2.43 ERA in his last five outings.Moore is 4-4 with a 4.67 ERA lifetime against the Red Sox, but held them hitless for the first five innings and scoreless for seven in St. Petersburg June 29 -- and has a string of 12 2/3 scoreless innings against them.Despite constant trade rumors, Moore remains focused on the task at hand.Theres things that are going on in our clubhouse that are on the forefront of my mind right now, and thats just to get us back into a good place, which is winning more games than Im losing, Moore said.That other stuff, I still feel very comfortable right now. Im not really sure whats going on there. I dont feel like anythings going to happen, to be honest with you.David Ortiz, who has done extensive damage to the Rays over the years, is 8-for-23 with three homers and eight RBI against Moore, while Mookie Betts is 5-for-9 and Xander Bogaerts and Travis Shaw both 5-for-10.Jackie Bradley Jr. is just 1-for-8 while Dustin Pedroia is 4-for-20 (one homer) off of Moore.

Barcelonas entertaining victory ensured the defending Spanish champions retained their share of the league lead with Atletico Madrid two rounds ahead of their meeting in the capital. Real Madrid needed a late goal by substitute Jese Rodriguez to earn a 3-2 victory at Valencia to stay in third place and three points behind its title rivals. Custom Los Angeles Dodgers Jerseys . -- Matt Ryan needed one of the best games of his career to lead the Falcons and their depleted offence out of their three-game losing streak last week. Geoff Ogilvy will carry a two-stroke lead heading into Sundays final round of the Australian Open, but he has a raft of big names including American superstar Jordan Spieth on his tail.Ogilvy expressed surprise after firing the low round of the tournament, a brilliant, unblemished eight-under-par 64 at Royal Sydney on Saturday.The former US Open champion is 11-under, with Spieth lurking ominously two shots back after grinding out a third-round 68 despite a shaky start.Two-time champion Aaron Baddeley is also at nine-under after carding a 67, as is Ryan Fox (70) in his bid to become the first New Zealander in more than a century to lift the Stonehaven Cup.In-form veteran Rod Pampling is three off the pace after a rollercoaster round of 70 vaulted the 47-year-old into contention for his maiden national championship.Adam Scott is a further shot back at seven under after salvaging a 71 with two late birdies.Ogilvy made the most of the favourable early morning conditions to go out in a red-hot six-under 30 courtesy of birdies at the first, second, sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth holes.He didnt grab another birdie until the par-five 16th, where he moved into the outright lead.The 2010 Open champion iced his round with a stunnning approach on the 18th for a tap-in birdie three.ddddddddddddTo be honest, I didnt really see 64 on the first tee, Ogilvy said.But after going out so well on the front nine I kind of started seeing a score like that. Its always a nice feeling. Im back in the mix.This mornings big mover was unheralded Australian Jake Higginbottom who capitalised on an early tee time, shooting six-under-par 66 to be six-under for the tournament.The 23-year-old from Charlestown opened his account with a birdie on the first hole, before mixing five birdies and an eagle with two bogeys to sign for a 66.It was actually pretty breezy this morning, said Higginbottom, who won the 2012 New Zealand Open as an amateur.I played well. They call it moving day for a reason and its always nice being in contention.Nitties (74), along with Higginbottom (66), Jason Scrivener (69) and 20-year-old Lucas Herbert (71) all share sixth place with Scott.Two-time former champion Robert Allenby (68), teenage amateur Min Woo Lee (71) and fellow young gun Cameron Smith (68) are not out of it at six under and five in arrears of Ogilvy.
