Darlington Nagbe scored in the 52nd minute and the Portland Timbers ran their MLS unbeaten streak to 13 games with a 1-0 victory over FC Dallas on Saturday. Portland (6-1-8, 26 points) pulled within two points of Western Division-leading Dallas (8-3-4). Portland hasnt dropped a match since losing to East-leading Montreal 2-1 on March 9. The victory Saturday was the Timbers sixth during their club-record unbeaten streak. Dallas lost for only the second time in its past 13 games, but both defeats came on trips to the Pacific Northwest. Dallas lost at Seattle 4-2 on May 18. Nagbe said it was "definitely the biggest win of the season," and Timbers coach Caleb Porter thought it was a highly-entertaining match despite the lack of goals. "It was outstanding soccer . a bit more of a track meet than I would have liked, but I thought we managed possession better in the second half," Porter said. Portland won the season series over Dallas, with the teams playing to a 1-1 tie May 8. The Timbers play at Dallas on June 26 in the U.S. Open Cup quarterfinals, a non-counting MLS match. Dallas outshot Portland 19-18 and forced Timbers goaltender Donovan Ricketts to make seven saves. "We had scoring chances. Were on the road and they make seven saves? Thats enough," FC Dallas coach Schellas Hyndman said. The Timbers lone goal was set up early in the second half when Kalif Alhassan passed to Nagbe in the penalty box. Nagbe pivoted to his right and blasted a 12-yard shot into the top right corner of the goal. "The ball landed perfectly for me. Once I saw the corner, I put it there," Nagbe said. It was Nagbes fifth goal of the season, tying him for the team lead with midfielder Will Johnson. "Hes the type of player who can pull off a play like that. Ive seen him do it plenty of times," Porter said of Nagbe. Both teams had several good chances to score in the first half. Portlands best came during the 15th minute when Diego Valeris header off a cross from Michael Harrington hit the cross bar. Dallas threatened seconds before halftime, but Timbers keeper Donovan Ricketts deflected Jacksons 20-yard rocket shot. Portland had several chances to add to its lead after Nagbes goal. The best was a breakaway during the 77th minute by Diego Chara, whose 10-yard shot glanced off the right post. Dallas best chance to tie came during the 72nd minute when Jackson broke away from two defenders, but his 15-yard shot sailed over the crossbar. Dallas starting forward Kenny Cooper did not play. Cooper flew back to Dallas on Saturday morning to attend to a family emergency. Eric Hassli started in his place, but he left during the seventh minute with a leg injury. "We went into the game without any strikers. Put those three guys in, and maybe its a little different today," Hyndman said. Grizzlies Jerseys 2020 .

CHICAGO -- After giving up three runs on five hits in throwing only 39 pitches Saturday in a 3-2 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers, the Chicago Cubs are moving Jason Hammel up one day in the rotation to start Wednesday night against the Pittsburgh Pirates.I didnt even pitch today in my mind, Hammel told the Chicago Sun-Times after the game Saturday. I barely threw 40 pitches. It was a side day for me pretty much.Now Hammel, who is 3-2 in August with two straight losses, will get a chance to make amends.The Cubs made the last-minute rotation switch Tuesday, moving originally scheduled starter Mike Montgomery to Thursday.Montgomery, 27, acquired on July 20 from Seattle, was to make his third start with the Cubs and first against an NL Central foe. He allowed only three runs despite walking four and giving up six hits in a no-decision outing Friday at the Dodgers, a 6-4 Cubs win in extra innings, but threw a season-high 90 pitches.We want to get Hammer back out there a little sooner, and Montgomery, coming off 90 1/8pitches 3/8 in his last outing, gives him an extra day, Cubs manager Joe Maddon said Tuesday, via MLB.com. It makes all the sense in the world to do it.Hammel will face 39-year-old right-hander Ryan Vogelsong in a series finale at Wrigley Field.Hes performed very well, said Pirates manager Clint Hurdle of Vogelsong. (Hes) given us a chance to win every game hes pitched. Hes been pitch-efficient.He reminds me of the generation that I kind of grew up with and played with. Hes still got the coore values.dddddddddddd Hes done what he need to do to improve himself and get better and hes had a very consistent and strong system in his own skill set.Vogelsong (3-3, 3.02 ERA) makes his 18th appearance and eight start of the season in the finale of Pittsburghs seven-game road trip.Wednesdays appearance would be Vogelsongs sixth this month. Hes 2-2 with a 2.48 ERA in that span, including a 5 1/3 inning outing and win against the Brewers last Friday in Milwaukee.Vogelsong rejoined the Pirates in 2016 after five seasons with the San Francisco Giants and three seasons prior to that in Japan.He suffered a left eye injury when he was hit by a pitch from Rockies starter Jordan Lyles on May 23. Vogelsong had surgery in early June to repair damage from facial fractures and was on the disabled list until Aug. 4.I dont think hes the same guy, Hurdle said. Theres probably a little bit of a velocity gap from what he was able to do. However the experience, the makeup on the mound, awareness of the league, knowledge of hitters, belief in himself and his skill set plays up very well.The Cubs remain home following Wednesdays game, hosting another series with a NL Wild card contender. The San Francisco Giants, currently leading the wild card standings, visit Wrigley Fielder a four-game series.The Pirates return home for a three-game series with the Milwaukee Brewers starting Friday.
