safety Paul Oliver was found dead at his Atlanta-area

It appears the Winnipeg Goldeyes enjoy hitting in Texas. The Goldeyes scored in the first four innings of the game and continued their hot start on Monday night with an 11-5 victory over the Amarillo Sox. Winnipegs offence knocked out 20 hits in the contest, the most by the team since July 21 of last year against Sioux Falls and improved their record on the season to 4-0. The Goldeyes jumped out to a 3-0 lead after two innings and expanded the lead in the third. Winnipegs first six batters of the inning reached base with Ryan Scoma, Luis Alen, and Nate Samson hammering out consecutive RBI base hits to put the Goldeyes up 6-0. “When you get ahead and play ahead, it makes it a lot easier on your pitching and defense,” said Goldeyes pitching coach Jamie Vermilyea on the TSN 1290 post-game show. Amarillo cut into the lead in their half of the third when David Peralta took a Pete Gehle offering over the wall in right field for a two-run homer. The Goldeyes answered right back in the fourth on a two-out RBI from Scoma that chased Sox starter Ryan Mitchell from the ball game. The Sox kept chipping away, scoring again in the fourth and twice in the fifth on an error and a RBI groundout from Jason Martin to make it 7-5. But it would be as close as the Goldeyes would allow them to get. After adding one more in the sixth, Winnipeg batted around in the ninth and sent three across the plate, leading to the eventual 11-5 final. Gehle picked up the win in his first start of the season. He went five and a third innings, giving up three earned runs while striking out three. Four Goldeyes relievers shut the door on Amarillo, allowing only one hit after Gehle left the game. Nick Liles went four-for-six at plate with a pair of RBIs and two stolen bases, while Alen went three-for-five with two RBIs. They were two of the eight Goldeyes hitters to record multi-hit games. Mitchell picked up the loss for Amarillo. He lasted three and two-thirds innings, getting tagged for 11 hits and five earned runs. He walked three and struck out three. Former Goldeye outfielder and Sox manager Bobby Brown was ejected in the ninth for arguing a third strike call. Amarillo committed four errors. The Goldeyes and Sox meet again Tuesday night for a 7:05 p.m. start. The action starts with the pre-game show at 6:30 p.m. with Paul Edmonds on TSN 1290.

Landon Donovan scored the tiebreaking goal on a pass from Robbie Keane in the 60th minute, and the Galaxy beat Juventus 3-1 Saturday night in the International Champions Cup tournament. Nobody from the Galaxy ascribed much importance to the result, but the Galaxys fans got extra enjoyment from their clubs first appearance at Dodger Stadium, the venerable 51-year-old Southern California landmark. "Our team played well, (but) the result isnt going to change anything in this world," Los Angeles coach Bruce Arena said. "We played well against a very good team, but we understand its an exhibition. I dont want to play them when it really counts." Omar Gonzalez scored in the first half, and Keane added a goal in the 88th minute on a terrible turnover by Andrea Pirlo as the back-to-back Major League Soccer champion Galaxy beat the two-time defending Serie A champions in the second soccer match ever played at Dodger Stadium. Real Madrid beat Everton 2-1 in the doubleheaders first game to advance to the tournament final. "Especially for our players from Southern California, it was great to see the excitement in the stands while we were here," Arena said. "Its a really good experience for our local players and our young players." Although the rest of the tournament schedule hasnt been announced, Los Angeles is expected to play in the third-place game in Miami on Wednesday night, likely against the loser of Chelseas match with AC Milan on Sunday outside New York. With Donovan, Keane and Robbie Rogers working in concert, the Galaxy performed splendidly for their hometown fans against Juventus, repeatedly controlling play and possession against their powerful opponents. Alessandro Matri scored in the 39thh minute for Juventus, which lost to Everton and the Galaxy in consecutive games in California this week.dddddddddddd Coach Antonio Conte thinks the second straight loss to a theoretically inferior opponent will put his talented club on notice before the Serie A season begins in three weeks. "Its good that this very bad loss happened during the preseason, when it doesnt matter," Conte said through a translator. "We have to go back and get organized for the season. We understand were not doing things properly, and we need to go back to the hard work that got us two championships in Italy." Both teams had good chances early on, with Rogers constantly causing trouble for Juventus from the wing. Los Angeles took the lead when Gonzalez left his defensive position and charged into the box, taking a pass from Juninho and chipping a goal over Gianluigi Buffon. Three minutes later, Matri capitalized on a scramble in the Galaxy box, banging a hard shot off Brian Rowe for a goal. Keane and Pirlo, the Italian national team star, entered the game at halftime. Keane hadnt played since injuring his hip in a match against Portland three weeks ago, but the Irish national team captain immediately got back to top form, putting the Galaxy back ahead with a pass across the box to Donovan for a tap-in goal. Juventus pressed in the second half, but Pirlo doomed his club with a tentative back-pass that was pounced upon by Keane, who flicked it past Buffon for the clinching score. Its been a rough trip for the 34-year-old Pirlo, who also missed a penalty kick at the end of Juventus loss to Everton in San Francisco. "We need everybody to wake up, and I put myself as the first one," Conte said. "We have great players, a great roster, but in these last two years, weve always gone beyond our limits with hard work and determination. We need to go back to that. They were in better shape and faster than us." ' ' '
