The Detroit Tigers have returned to the No. 1 ranking in the TSN.ca MLB Power Rankings, remaining ahead of the Los Angeles Dodgers and overtaking the Pittsburgh Pirates. While the Tigers have been ranked second seven times this season, they were the last team to be ranked on top before St. Louis went on a two-month run at the top, a run that ended last week. Detroit has been slugging, with an .803 OPS the best in baseball since the break, which is a nice complement to a pitching staff that has a 2.17 ERA, also best in baseball, in that same time frame. The Texas Rangers, adding right fielder Alex Rios and winning 12 of their last 13 games, made a big jump in the rankings, up from 10th to fourth. Five wins in the last six games, along with an improving young pitching staff, resulted in the New York Mets moving up from 23rd to 17th. Respectable play, including an 8-6 record in the last 14 games, helped lift the Milwaukee Brewers from 28th to 22nd, the highest the Brewers have been ranked since Week Four (the same time that the Tigers were last ranked on top). Going the wrong way, the Tampa Bay Rays have lost five in a row, falling from a season-high fifth to 10th in the rankings. The Toronto Blue Jays are hanging around at 24th; its tough to gain ground with a 5.43 ERA, worst in the American League, since the All-Star break.

He said Tuesday thats a big reason why he is now the new coach of the Tennessee Titans. Whisenhunt said he hit it off quickly with Ruston Webster when interviewing for the job Friday night. Nike Air Max Plus Outlet . -- There were so many positives from the Orlando Magics first victory of the season that it was hard for coach Jacque Vaughn to stop praising his players. CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. -- Now that Bronco Mendenhall has his first victory as Virginias coach, the Cavaliers want to end a 17-game road losing streak that stretches to November 2012.Mendenhall and right tackle Eric Smith both said Monday they had no idea how many game it has been since the Cavaliers (1-2) won on the road. They also had somewhat different views on how they will approach it this week as they prepare to play at Duke (2-2, 0-1 Atlantic Coast Conference).The last time Virginia won in Durham, North Carolina, was in 2006.Its something that we talk about, Smith said on Monday. What would it be like to win this away game and break the streak? Thats a big thing.Mendenhall, who recorded his 100th career victory when the Cavaliers beat Central Michigan 49-35 on Saturday, saw his team come up short in excruciating fashion two weeks ago at Connecticut. A third-down play was stopped at the 2 yard-line and a hurried 20-yard field goal to tie the game failed in the 13-10 loss.The coach is not eager to focus on the past or even on breaking the streak, but rather on continuing to improve.I dont think its something that, other than how fiercely we need to prepare, needs to be addressed, Mendenhall said. Right now we play Duke and I know exactly where our team has to improve and grow and where our focus needs to be. ... Im looking forward on what we can do, not what hasnt been done.Linebacker Zach Bradshaw hopes the venue will matter less to thee Cavaliers than the task at hand in Durham.ddddddddddddI know a lot of people think that theres some mystery about winning on the road, he said. But I think that if we just prepare like we prepared last week, well win.Smith has some ideas of what needs to be done, and much of relates as much to mental preparation as what happens on the field.If anything, Id just say finish. Weve definitely been up in away games. Its how we finish, the senior said. I feel like, how we come out the second half is just big with UVA football. In the past, we havent had the second-half kind of mentality of finishing or having the hunger that we came out (with) in the first half. Its just always been either kind of complacent or playing kind of scared.That started to change in the second half of a 44-26 loss at Oregon in Week 2.Despite trailing 30-6 at halftime, the Cavaliers remained upbeat and outscored the Ducks 20-14 after halftime.If anything, that was the most excited weve ever been, Smith said, speaking of the teams demeanor on the sideline. But the hump, I would say we have to get over going away, going against Duke, is ourselves. Were not worried about any outside sources. Its what are we going to do.---Online: The APs college football page: http://collegefootball.ap.org---Follow Hank on Twitter: www.twitter.com/hankkurzjr China NFL Jerseys Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys NFL Jerseys Cheap Wholesale NFL Jerseys Cheap Basketball Jerseys Online Stitched Hockey Jerseys Wholesale Baseball Jerseys Football Jerseys Outlet College Jerseys For Sale Cheap MLB Jerseys Wholesale Soccer Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys For Sale Wholesale NFL Jerseys ' ' '
