The Winnipeg Goldeyes had it in the bag and Zac Mitchell took it away. The Gary SouthShore RailCats light-hitting shortstop hit his first homer of the year, a two-run shot in the second inning, and then blasted a game-winning three-run bomb with two out in the bottom of the ninth to beat the Winnipeg Goldeyes 6-5. It was a heartbreaking loss for the Goldeyes, who took a 5-3 lead into the bottom of the ninth. In the ninth, Chris Kissock, the closer of the day, got two quick outs, but then Brian Kolb singled, Drew Martinez singled and then Mitchell hit the first pitch he saw from Kissock – fastball over the heart of the plate – over the right-field wall for the game-winning home run. Mitchell, the 5-foot-9, 170-pound shortstop, who went into the game hitting .269, went two-for-four with two runs scored and five runs driven in. It was also a heartbreaking way for Goldeyes starter Justin Garcia to get a no-decision. Garcia pitched brilliantly and Josh Mazzola knocked in a pair of runs to get the Fish rolling, as Winnipeg built an early 4-0 lead and seemed to be in control. But that collapse in the ninth gave the RailCats a thrilling victory in the rubber match of this three-game series. With the loss, the Goldeyes finished 3-3 on their six-game road trip and fell to 20-19 on the season. The Goldeyes got off to a quick start. In the top of the first, Mike Coles led off with a single, Amos Ramon walked and then Josh Mazzola doubled both of them home. Casey Haerther singled, sending Mazzola to third and then Mazzola scored as Fehlandt Lentini grounded into a fielders choice. Luis Alen then singled, but Lentini was thrown out trying to go to third. However, that allowed Alen to get to second and he scored on a single by Nick Liles. Gary scored three times in the third, but thats all theyd get against Garcia, who gave the Goldeyes a fourth-straight quality start. Winnipeg made it 5-3 in the fourth as Liles walked and Nate Samson singled. Liles eventually came around to score on a fielders choice RBI ground out by Mike Coles. Garcia pitched six strong innings, allowing three runs on six hits and then lefty reliever Brendan Lafferty pitched scoreless, hitless innings in the seventh and eighth. But Kissocks mistake to Mitchell gave the RailCats the series victory and handed Winnipeg its second straight loss. Ramon led the Goldeyes offense with a couple of hits and a run scored. Haerther had a pair of hits and Mazzola knocked in the first two runs of the game with his only hit. Gary reliever Kyle Lindquist (1-0, 3.09 ERA) got the win, while Kissock (0-3, 3.27 ERA) suffered the loss.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- Singapore swimmer Joseph Schooling left Rio de Janeiro known as the man who defeated Michael Phelps. And as a millionaire.In addition to winning the gold medal after beating Phelps with an Olympic record in the 100 meter butterfly, the 21-year-old Schooling also took home a reward of 1 million Singaporean dollars (about US $750,000) from his national Olympic committee.Singapore was among the many countries offering hefty cash prizes to their medalists at the Rio Games, a practice that has become more common as nations continue to give greater importance to the final medal count.Few pay nearly as much as Singapore, but almost every country has been awarding at least some sort of prize money to medal winners in an attempt to improve their position in the medal table. The bonuses usually come through the national committees, sponsors or national governments. Some also give out non-cash prizes such as cars and apartments.Twenty percent of Schoolings prize will go to the local swimming association for future training and development, Singapores national committee said. Schoolings gold was the first ever for Singapore at the Olympics.Phelps returned home with more gold than Schooling, but less money. The American great earned $25,000 for each of his five gold medals and $15,000 for the silver, earning $140,000 from the U.S. Olympic Committee.By the end of Friday, the USOC had spent about $1.8 million in prizes after 105 medals were won by its athletes.Britain, second in the medal standings, did not award any prize money to its medalists.Italy was ninth in the medal count by Friday, but with the equivalent of nearly $170,000 awarded to each gold medalist in Rio, it had already spent about $2.6 million in prizes with 25 medal winners. The amount paid for each medal was the same even for athletes in team sports.Other top payers at the Olympics included Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Malaysia, each disbursing about $250,000 for gold medalists. Kazakhsstan also gave out prizes to athletes finishing up to sixth place, while Malaysia awards a lifelong monthly pension that can reach about $1,200.ddddddddddddOf course the money helps, said Patimat Abakarova, who won a bronze for Azerbaijan in Taekwondo and took home more than $60,000. But any athlete will tell you that this is not why we are here. We dont think about the money, thats not why we compete in the Olympics.Azerbaijan also gives its coaches half of the amount awarded to the medalists.Russias federal government is giving out about $60,000 for gold, and this time there is no word on whether it will also award luxury cars to all of its medalists, as it did at the Sochi Winter Games.Host Brazil is paying roughly $11,000 for its medalists, regardless of the color of the medal. The winners in team sports earn half of that amount. The Brazilian soccer federation reportedly is also expected to hand out $100,000 to Neymar and all of his teammates if they help Brazil win the soccer gold medal for the first time, although it doesnt officially confirm or deny the bonus amount.Sweden is among the few countries that dont reward athletes with money if their athletes win. The Swedish national committee said there was no medal bonus because we spend all our commercial money on preparation for the athletes, which means that we usually support them for six to eight years to reach world class.Some countries apparently didnt give any support at all.The national committee of the South Pacific islands of Vanuatu, which competed with four athletes, said the local government did not give even a cent to help our team participate in Rio 2016.---AP Sports Writers Gerald Imray and James Ellingworth contributed to this report.---Tales Azzoni on Twitter: http://twitter.com/tazzoni.
