SAN FRANCISCO -- Baltimore Orioles second baseman Jonathan Schoop gets a chance to face his favorite pitcher Sunday when the San Francisco Giants send right-hander Johnny Cueto to the mound in the finale of a three-game interleague series.Schoop had never faced Cueto in his career before they hooked up twice over the course of 19 days in August and September last season.Suffice it to say, its a five at-bat stretch the 24-year-old will never forget.Schoop belted three homers and a single in those two games, leading the Orioles to 8-5 and 8-2 wins over Cueto and his team at the time, the Kansas City Royals.The three homers were one-fifth of Schoops entire season total of 15, and were three of the seven the Orioles smacked off Cueto in 11 1/3 innings.Cueto is the only pitcher against whom Schoop has as many as three homers in his career.Cueto, meanwhile, has allowed more than three career home runs to only three players -- Aramis Ramirez (six in 50 at-bats), Andrew McCutchen (four in 75) and Alfonso Soriano (four in 46).Schoop, a fourth-year Oriole, has pounded out 17 home runs already this season. But more than anything else, hes known for his consistency.Schoop played all nine innings in Saturdays 6-2 loss to the Giants. He is the only major-leaguer to have played every inning of every one of his teams games this season.Schoop has started 116 consecutive games, the second-longest active streak in the majors. Only Cuetos former teammate, Alcides Escobar of the Royals, has started more consecutive games (125).Chris Davis (two), Manny Machado and Adam Jones added to Cuetos miseries with homers last season. The veteran right-hander walked away from those two starts with a 10.32 ERA in his only two career starts against the Orioles.Cueto might not have to worry about Jones on Sunday. The veteran outfielder injured a finger on a bunt attempt in Saturdays loss and was last seen icing it after the game.Orioles manager Buck Showalter was concerned to the point of telling reporters, Were pretty thin if we lose Adam. Basically, we have Adam or Adam (to play center field).Cueto has made 27 other interleague starts and has ranked among baseballs best in those games. Hes gone 14-4 with a 2.08 ERA in those games.Even counting the Baltimore debacles, Cueto has logged a 2.59 ERA in interleague games, the best among all active pitchers who have made more than 27 such starts.Cueto has made just one interleague start this season. He did not allow an earned run over six innings in a 2-1 win over the New York Yankees.The Orioles will counter with left-hander Wade Miley, who will be making his 22nd interleague start. Hes gone 9-5 with a 5.27 in his first 21.A former member of the Arizona Diamondbacks, Miley will be facing the Giants for the 11th time in his career. Hes gone 4-4 with a 3.23 ERA in those games.Miley hasnt faced the Giants since 2014, when he went 3-1 in four starts against the National League West rival.He will be facing a team coming off what manager Bruce Bochy considered to be a crucial win on Saturday night.Good bounce-back for us, said Bochy, whose club lost the series opener 5-2. We needed a win tonight. Saucony Shoes Deals .

The 18th player to shoot 60 on the tour, Jamieson settled for par on the final hole when his 15-foot birdie chip grazed the edge of the hole and stayed out. After opening with rounds of 66 and 73 to make the cut by a stroke, he had 11 birdies in the bogey-free round. JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- With a rookie quarterback and one of the NFLs best defenses, the Denver Broncos were content to play conservatively at Jacksonville.It was the perfect formula against the self-destructing Jaguars.Bradley Roby returned an interception 51 yards for a touchdown, and the defending Super Bowl champions beat the mistake-prone Jaguars 20-10 on Sunday and gained ground in the AFC playoff picture.Roby picked off Blake Bortles wobbler across the middle in the third quarter -- star linebacker Von Miller hit Bortles as he released the ball -- and went untouched the other way. It was one of three turnovers for Denvers defense.They were exceptional, Broncos coach Gary Kubiak said.It was the 11th pick-6 of Bortles three-year career and his third in the past four games. Houston and Detroit also returned interceptions for touchdowns in games the Jaguars lost by fewer than seven points.Its the biggest nightmare possible, said Bortles, whose 37.9 quarterback rating was the worst of his career.But what are you going to do about it? You cant sit there in a corner and pout. You cant blame people. You cant feel sorry for yourself because I think all thats going to do is affect the way I play. ... All you can do is put your head down and continue to play as hard as you can and prepare each week.Bortles latest pick-6 resulted in a seventh consecutive loss for Jacksonville (2-10) and secured another miserable milestone for the small-market franchise.The Jaguars became the fifth team in NFL history to post double-digit losses in six consecutive seasons, joining Tampa Bay (1983-94), Detroit (2001-06), Oakland (2003-09) and Cleveland (2008-13).Jacksonville had a chance to tie in the final minutes, but Bortles fumbled trying to make a play in the pocket.The Broncos (8-4) rebounded from an overtime loss against Kansas City, and with Miamis loss at Baltimore, moved into position to get one of the conferences wild-card spots.They did it without quarterback Trevor Siemian , who missed the game with a sprained left foot. Rookie Paxton Lynch made his second career start and first on the road. Denver didnt ask him to do too much. He didnt need to, either.The Broncos scored all 20 points with help from Jacksonville, including two turnovers and two 15-yard penalties.Denver was 1 for 13 on third downs and finished with just 206 yards, the fewest allowed in Jaguars coach Gus Bradleys four-year tenurre.ddddddddddddIt was the franchises fewest since giving up 146 yards in a victory against Baltimore in 2011.Were playing good defense right now, said Jaguars defensive tackle Malik Jackson, who played his first game against his former team.The Broncos were gouged on the ground for 154 yards, but the defense made several game-changing plays.Robys interception was the key. It was huge for the third-year pro who gave up a late touchdown to New Orleans two weeks ago and surrendered an 11-yard catch on fourth-and-10 last week against the Chiefs.There was no way we were going to lose this game late like we did last week, Roby said.SPECIAL TEAMS WOESThe Jaguars continued their streak of special teams gaffes. Reserve tight end Alex Ellis was flagged for unnecessary roughness on a punt return in the final minute of the half. His 15-yarder set up Brandon McManus 32-yard field goal and put the Broncos ahead 10-3. It also gave Jacksonville a major meltdown on special teams for the seventh consecutive week. The streak includes five fumbled punts -- including three turnovers -- a punt return for a touchdown and two long punt returns that set up scores.HELPING HANDSJaguars receiver Allen Robinson continues to help his opponents. Robinson dropped his sixth pass of the season and his third that resulted in an interception.Just trying to make a play, Robinson said. For me, again, each and every Sunday I try to go out here and try to make plays.Robinson bobbled a deep pass from Bortles down the left sideline, and it landed Harris Jr.s hands for Bortles 14th interception of the season. Robinson, a Pro Bowler last season, also bobbled passes that ended up as picks against Chicago and Oakland earlier this season.Robinson finished with three catches for 31 yards. It looked as if he was tackled before the ball got to him on a fourth-down play early in the fourth, but the play didnt draw a flag. Robinson ripped off his helmet to yell at an official and was flagged unsportsmanlike conduct.Sometimes youve got to let it out and that happened, he said. Ive never been this frustrated playing the game of football in my life.UP NEXTBroncos: Play at Tennessee on Sunday.Jaguars: Host Minnesota on Sunday.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys cheap jerseys Cheap Jersyes Cheap Basketball Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys cheap jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys ' ' '
