Ubaldo Jimenez (5-11, 6.62) makes his second start since returning to Baltimores rotation. He pitched six innings of one-run ball last time out.FOLLOW UPNationals right-hander Max Scherzer (14-7, 2.92) pitches against Philadelphia after tossing a gem in his last start. Scherzer pitched eight innings of two-hit ball in a 4-0 win over Baltimore, striking out 10 and throwing just 95 pitches. Jerad Eickhoff (9-12, 3.87) has won three straight decisions for the Phillies.BACK-TO-BACK AGAINTexas left-hander Cole Hamels takes the middle game of a series against Seattle with the Mariners trying to get closer to the AL West-leading Rangers. It will be the ninth straight time Hamels follows Yu Darvish in the rotation since the Japanese right-hander returned from right shoulder discomfort in the second game after the All-Star break. The Rangers were 10-6 in those starts with four straight wins going into Darvishs outing Monday night.BACK-TO-BACK AGAINTexas left-hander Cole Hamels takes the middle game of a series against Seattle with the Mariners trying to get closer to the AL West-leading Rangers.

After seeming to turn things around with a solid June, Greinke has struggled in August, going 1-1 with a 7.84 ERA in four starts.KERSHAW VS TEBOW?Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw will face hitters in a simulated game in Los Angeles, and it just happens to coincide with the baseball tryout Tim Tebow is holding in the same city. But no, the 2007 Heisman Trophy winner wont be stepping into the batters box to face Kershaw, whos working his way back from mild disk irritation. Great athlete. I dont know if hes ready for the Clayton Kershaw slider, though, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts joked.

LAKE PLACID, N.Y. -- Steven Holcomb wins a World Cup bobsled gold medal on home ice nearly every year, and Jamie Greubel Poser may be following that same path.It was a U.S. bobsled sweep at Mount Van Hoevenberg on Friday. Greubel Poser and Aja Evans held off U.S. teammates Elana Meyers Taylor and Lolo Jones to win the womens race, and Holcomb teamed with Sam McGuffie to win the two-man race -- his sixth gold in the past seven international two-man races on his home track.Every single person out here wanted to win today, Holcomb said. To have a victory, to be on top, no matter where it is, its nice; just getting back to that mentality of winning again. It is a mentality. Putting together two runs. These cold conditions make the ice very hard and very slippery. Being the veteran on the tour, my experience paid off today.For Greubel Poser, it was the second straight year she drove to a World Cup win at Lake Placid.She and Evans finished their two runs on a frigid day in 1 minute, 52.02 seconds, taking advantage of super-hard, super-fast ice to set a track record along the way. Meyers Taylor and Jones were 0.14 seconds back in 1:52.16, while the Canadian team of Olympic champion Kaillie Humphries and Cynthia Appiah was third in 1:53.05.It just shows how strong Team USA is, Meyers Taylor said.ddddddddddddGreubel Poser and Evans broke the track record in their first heat, finishing in 55.81. Thats a significant shaving off the former mark, 56.28 set by Meyers Taylor and Cherrelle Garrett two years ago.We were so excited to see that time when we crossed the finish line, Greubel Poser said. I was screaming -- we were just so excited to know that we went that fast. We literally gave everything we had at the top.And in the mens race, only U.S. and Canadian sleds reached the podium as well -- a rare World Cup bobsled day with nothing but North Americans in the top three spots.Holcomb and McGuffie won in 1:49.47. Canada took silver and bronze, with the team of World Cup points leader Justin Kripps and Jesse Lumsden finishing in 1:49.74, 0.01 ahead of Chris Spring and Lascelles Brown.The four-person race is Saturday, and Meyers Taylor is expected to be one of the drivers in the field -- pushed by a team that will include her husband, Nic Taylor. She would be competing against male drivers for the third time in World Cup competition, after doing so twice in the 2014-15 season and finishing 13th and 16th. ' ' '
