He picked up a break in the second set en route to his first career victory over the 11th-seeded Frenchman. Tsonga outlasted Raonic in a marathon match at the London Olympics in 2012 and beat him again last year at Indian Wells.

Hell make his fourth Masters 1000 Series quarterfinal appearance of the season Friday against Jeremy Chardy of France. Chardy, who upset Roger Federer of Switzerland in the second round, advanced with a 6-3, 6-2 win over Croatias Ivan Dodig. Raonic has yet to reach a semifinal this year. Also Thursday, Rafael Nadal was pushed to three sets for the second consecutive match before ultimately prevailing to set up a quarterfinal against Andy Murray. The top-ranked Nadal dropped behind a set and a break against Mikhail Youzhny of Russia, then won 11 of the final 12 games to win 6-7 (4), 6-2, 6-1 on another windy day at the Foro Italico. "Get used to (it)," Nadal said of his recent struggles. "With the years thats the normal thing. Everybody suffers. Thats part of the sport." At 27, Nadal believed his best days were probably behind him. "At this age, (Bjorn) Borg was doing other things," said Nadal, a 13-time Grand Slam winner. "Its not possible to win for 10 years with easy scores and easy matches. At the same time, Im sure I can do much better than I am doing." Nadal was looking forward to facing Murray for the first time in more than two years. "I play against one of the top players in the world after two tough days," Nadal said. "If I play well Im going to have my chances, if not Im going to spend the weekend (at home) in Mallorca." Murray eliminated Jurgen Melzer of Austria 7-6 (1), 6-4 to celebrate his 27th birthday. In an upset, the seemingly ageless Tommy Haas beat third-seeded Stanislas Wawrinka 5-7, 6-2, 6-3. On the womens side, Maria Sharapovas 12-match winning streak — which included titles in Stuttgart and Madrid — ended with a 6-1, 6-4 loss to Ana Ivanovic. Showing no signs of trouble from the left thigh injury that forced her to withdraw from Madrid, defending champion Serena Williams cruised past fellow American Varvara Lepchenko 6-1, 6-2. Pushed for three hours by Gilles Simon to nearly midnight a day earlier, Nadal didnt generate the usual depth with his groundstrokes, and began to take control only when Youzhny started committing more unforced errors. "The conditions were very impossible," said Nadal, a seven-time Rome champion. "You always have to find the positive thing. I was able to play with the right motivation even if the feeling was not perfect." Nadal consistently ran around his backhand, a shot that also caused him concern in recent losses to David Ferrer and Nicolas Almagro in Monte Carlo and Barcelona, respectively. Of Nadals 29 winners, only two of them came with his backhand. Haas, the oldest player in the draw at 36, used his expertise to give Wawrinka trouble with heavy topspin. Haas last beat a top-10 player more than a year ago in Miami, where he took out then-No. 1 Novak Djokovic. "These things dont happen too often anymore, so when I take them Im really proud of them," the German said. He has been winning this week in Rome for the first time since he lost the 2002 final to Andre Agassi. Wawrinka cited a back injury that occurred in colder conditions during his opening win. "I couldnt move too well," he said. "Its really nothing serious. Its just painful and I need some rest — maybe a few days." Wawrinka has made a great start by winning the Australian Open and the Monte Carlo Masters but another early exit in last weeks Madrid Open leaves his form in question with the French Open starting in 10 days. Haas quarterfinal opponent will be Grigor Dimitrov, who at 22 is the youngest player in the top 20. Dimitrov rallied past sixth-seeded Tomas Berdych 6-7 (3), 6-2, 6-2. Fifth-seeded David Ferrer beat Ernests Gulbis of Latvia 6-2, 6-3 and will meet either Novak Djokovic or Philipp Kohlschreiber, who were playing late. In womens play, second-seeded Li Na defeated Sam Stosur 6-3, 6-1 and will next meet Sara Errani of Italy, who kept the crowd content by beating Czech qualifier Petra Cetkovska 6-4, 7-6 (3). Also, third-seeded Agnieszka Radwanska eliminated Francesca Schiavone 6-4, 6-1, and will play 2007 and 2008 Rome champion Jelena Jankovic, who got by Flavia Pennetta 6-2, 6-3. Derrick Henry Jersey . "He came up to me and said, I want to train," said Toronto coach Ryan Nelsen. The 26-year-old midfielder is expected to play Saturday night when Toronto hosts D.C. United, returning to his Major League Soccer squad with mixed feelings about the Americans World Cup run -- sad that it ended when it did but proud of his teams performance. Jonnu Smith Jersey .

The game can be seen live on TSN2 starting at 7pm et/4pm pt.NEW YORK -- Brian McCann began the day on the bench and ended it all wet, soaking up his best moment in pinstripes. McCann lined a pinch-hit, three-run homer with two outs in the 10th inning Sunday that gave the New York Yankees a 7-4 victory and a three-game sweep of the Chicago White Sox. "It just shows you that he had stayed ready all day. Mentally, he was ready," New York manager Joe Girardi said. Ichiro Suzuki had a two-run single and Mark Teixeira hit an RBI double for the resurgent Yankees, who rallied against All-Star ace Chris Sale en route to their fourth straight victory following a 2-7 slide. Desperately chasing a playoff spot, they finished a 4-2 homestand against two losing teams by getting their second game-ending hit against Chicago in three days. Carlos Beltran doubled off Jake Petricka (0-3) with two outs in the 10th, and Chase Headley was intentionally walked. McCann, batting for backup catcher Francisco Cervelli, laced a full-count changeup over the 314-foot sign in the right-field corner. A fired-up McCann pumped his fist and shouted as he rounded first base, then threw down his helmet when he approached a swarm of happy teammates at home plate. Two buckets of liquid were dumped over his head. Someone even slapped a pair of sunglasses on his face. "I dont know what was going on. I just know that was an amazing moment Ill never forget," McCann said. "Walk-off home runs dont happen in your career every day. So when you hit one, Im going to enjoy every minute of it." McCann joined the Yankees as a prized free agent last off-season, signing an $85 million, five-year contract. But his first year in New York hasnt been easy, and hes hitting only .235 with 15 homers and 54 RBIs. "Just so exciting. Hes such a great presence in the clubhouse," Yankees starter Chris Capuano said. "To watch him have that moment was great." Avisail Garcia hit a tying homer in the ninth for the White Sox, who have lost a season-high six in a row and 13 of 17 overall. Chicago has dropped its last eight games at Yankee Stadium since winning on June 29, 2012. New York scored four unearned runs off Sale in the sixth to take a 4-3 lead, capitalizing on an error by left fielder Dayan Viciedo. Sale walked two batters and hit rookie Zelous Wheeler on the leg with a first-pitch breaking ball, forcing in a run. "Things just kind of unraveled for me," Sale said. "That stuff is going to happen. You have to find a way to get through that." Suzuki capped the outburst with a two-runn single, making him the first left-handed batter to drive in a run against Sale since Minnesota star Joe Mauer on Aug. Titans Jerseys China. 17, 2013, according to STATS. After striking out his first three times up, Garcia led off the ninth with a home run against Yankees closer David Robertson, who had converted 22 consecutive save chances since June 5 -- the longest active streak in the majors. David Huff (3-1) threw a called third strike past slugger Jose Abreu with two on to end the top of the 10th. "I was trying to throw a ball there," said Huff, who didnt want to give Abreu anything to hit. "I was missing some spots, in a good way." Alexei Ramirez hit his first career leadoff homer and Conor Gillaspie had a two-run shot for the White Sox. RESPECT New York saluted White Sox captain Paul Konerko before his final regular-season game at Yankee Stadium. Derek Jeter presented Konerko with an encased and autographed base, and the two posed for photos behind home plate. "As far as that whole retirement thing, it is probably the highlight of the year for me so far," Konerko said. "Definitely a classy move by them. I certainly did not expect it." TRAINERS ROOM White Sox: CF Adam Eaton (strained right oblique) went 2 for 5 with a double and a run Saturday night in the first game of his rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte. Eaton was scheduled to play for Charlotte again Sunday and probably Monday, manager Robin Ventura said. Yankees: LF Brett Gardner sat out with a sore ankle on his 31st birthday. "Were hoping its just today," Girardi said. ... RHP Masahiro Tanaka (elbow ligament) felt good after throwing 35 pitches in a two-inning simulated game Saturday and is scheduled for another simulated game Thursday in Detroit, Girardi said. ... RHP David Phelps (elbow inflammation) will stay home to play catch when the team goes on the road this week. UP NEXT Chicago is off Monday before opening a seven-game homestand Tuesday night, with LHP Jose Quintana (6-10, 3.25 ERA) facing Cleveland LHP T.J. House (2-3, 3.80). New York begins an important seven-game road trip Monday night with RHP Michael Pineda (2-2, 2.05 ERA) on the mound against Kansas City RHP James Shields (12-6, 3.28) in the makeup of a June 9 rainout.
