Beachsaison 2011 » Blue Jays SS Jose Reyes

MONTREAL -- It was almost as if Jim Furyk, Graham DeLaet and Matt Kuchar were a team when they went on a birdie spree in the second round of the US$5.7 million RBC Canadian Open on Friday. The threesome were all smiles after they combined for 22 birdies (and only three bogeys), while Furyk and DeLaet tied the course record with 63s in near-perfect scoring conditions at Royal Montreals usually daunting Blue course. Furyk, who birdied four straight holes early in his round, emerged with a share of the tournament lead at 10-under 130 with veteran Tim Petrovic, who shot 66. Weyburn, Sask., native DeLaet in was in a tie for third at 8-under 132 with Kyle Stanley, who had 67. "Theyre fun to play golf with," Furyk said of DeLaet and Kuchar. "We chatted a lot out there. "And then to have everyone play well, youre seeing birdie putts going in, its a lot of fun. And I think you can feed off that a little bit. Those guys are making birdies, you feel like putts are going in, its a good vibe." In a way they are a team. They are among the 10 PGA Tour players sponsored by RBC that includes Graeme McDowell, who had five birdies of his own for a 65 to sit at 7-under 133 along with Justin Hicks (67), Scott Brown (66) and Andrew Svoboda (66). Kuchars 65 put him in a group at 6-under 134 that included first-round co-leader Michael Putnam, who shot 70. The entire RBC-sponsored crew plays the Canadian Open, which many top stars skipped to rest up after last weeks British Open at Royal Liverpool. The 44-year-old Furyk had extra motivation. He won the event back-to-back in 2006 and 2007. One more win would put him in a tie for the second-most Canadian Open titles with Tommy Armour, Sam Snead and Lee Trevino. Leo Diegel won four in the 1920s. "Winning any event is special," said Furyk, who has 16 career victories. "Ive had a lot of success (in Canada) and really a lot of support here. "But were only at the halfway point." Furyk came into the tournament off a sizzling 65 at Royal Liverpool on Sunday that got him fourth place in the British Open. He hopped on a charter after that round to get to the Canadian Open in time to readjust to the Eastern time zone and get reacquainted with the course, which he played while on the U.S. team that defeated the Internationals at the 2007 Presidents Cup. With the fairways and greens softened by heavy rain on Wednesday, Royal Montreal was ready to be taken. "The golf course is soft and receptive, and they have it set up where we can attack and fire at pins, so scores are going to be good," he said. "It would be a totally different scenario if these greens were firm." DeLaet isnt short of motivation either. Canadas top-ranked player at No. 31 in FedEx Cup standings is seeking his first PGA Tour win and would like nothing more than to become the first home grown player to win the Canadian Open since Pat Fletcher in 1954. He started the second round at 1-under, then posted five birdies on the first eight holes and nine on the day to go with a pair of bogeys. "I felt I was in control of my game all day, with a couple of little hiccups," the 32-year-old said. "I mean, all three of us played great. "I never saw so many putts rolling in. It was a lot of fun. We were feeding off each other. When you see putts rolling in from everywhere like it was in our group, you just feel like puttings easy or something and you just start holing them." Tying the course record was a particular thrill for the Canadian. It was set in the second round the last time the Canadian Open was played at Royal Montreal in 2001 by David Morland and Scott Verplank, the tournament winner. "To share a course record here is pretty special and to have two guys in one group do it is pretty amazing," said DeLaet. Petrovic has been a surprise. The 47-year-old was on a family vacation when he got the call on Tuesday that he was in the Canadian Open as the seventh alternate when another player withdrew. He arrived the next day and barely had time to look at the course. Then he opened with a six-under 64 and followed with a 66 to take a share of the lead. I have been hitting the ball really well for about the last three weeks," said Petrovic, who missed the cut at his last five tournaments. "Ive seen signs of some good rounds coming. "Am I surprised? Maybe a little." The cut was set at even-par 140 and 73 players made it, including six of the 19 Canadians in the field: DeLaet, David Hearn of Brampton, Ont at 3-under 137 after a 70, Adam Hadwin of Moose Jaw, Sask. at 1-under 139 from a 69, and Mike Weir of Brights Grove, Ont. (70), Brad Fritsch of Ottawa (68) and amateur Taylor Pendrith of Richmond Hills, Ont. (75), all at even-par 70. It was a rough day for Pendrith, who stole the show in Thursdays opening round with a 65. The 23-year-old gave back all his strokes by shooting five over par. "It was a disappointing round," said Pendrith, who had a double bogey, four bogeys and only one birdie. "To play well yesterday and come out and not play my best, I didnt hit many greens -- only six -- and didnt give myself too many chances for birdies. "My short game was pretty good -- I had a few nice saves -- so I cant be too disappointed about that. The ball striking was off today." 76ers Jerseys 2020 .

PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Jose Lobaton came up big again for the Tampa Bay Rays. Lobaton hit a solo home run in the 10th inning and the Rays beat the Toronto Blue Jays 2-1 on Sunday. Lobaton sent a 2-1 pitch from Brad Lincoln (1-2) with one out into the right-field seats. Lobaton had a game-ending triple in the ninth Friday. "Its different," Lobaton said. "Walk-off triple, that was amazing. Walk-off homer, run the bases like that, is unbelievable. Its something that you want to do all the time. Hopefully its not the last one." Lobatons parents were at the ballpark for both of his key hits. "Seriously, thats pretty cool for him," Rays manager Joe Maddon said. "Very, very cool." Jake McGee (3-3) struck out one during a perfect 10th. Tampa Bay took two of three from Toronto, which hasnt won a series at Tropicana Field since April 2007. Rays starter Chris Archer allowed one run and four hits over seven innings. Blue Jays right-hander Todd Redmond, a St. Petersburg, Fla., native, gave up one run and six hits over six-plus innings in his first start at Tampa Bay. "We wasted great pitching out there," Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. "If youre going to play in prime time, youve got to win those games. Weve had so many of them over the course of the season and we havent been able to win them." Evan Longoria put the Rays up 1-0 in the first with his 24th homer, an opposite-field drive to right that resulted in a video review after a fan in the front row caught the ball just above the fence. "One bad pitch to Longoria, one of the best-hitting third basemen in the game right now," Redmond said. "You do that, and you pay the price. (The fan) probably reached over a little bit, but it was probably just far enough to where it didnt matter." The Blue Jays ttied it 1-1 when Edwin Encarnacion connected for his 31st homer this season with two outs in the seventh.dddddddddddd He nearly put Toronto ahead in the ninth, but his two-out drive off Fernando Rodney hit off the top of the left-field wall and the slugger wound up with a double. "Very, very lucky right there," Maddon said. Archer retired nine in a row before Anthony Gose started the fourth with a single. Gose stole second and went to third on Jose Bautistas one-out flyball, but was left stranded when Encarnacion flew out. Gose was the only Toronto baserunner until Encarnacions seventh-inning homer. After the home run, Adam Lind and Brett Lawrie had consecutive singles before Mark DeRosa grounded out. The Rays got a one-out double from Longoria in the fourth and Yunel Escobar hit a leadoff double to begin the fifth, but Redmond worked out of both jams without allowing a run. Redmond also got an inning-ending double play from Wil Myers with two on during the sixth. Tampa Bay also wasted a scoring chance in the seventh with no outs when pinch-runner Sean Rodriguez was caught in a rundown between third and homer after pinch-hitter Jason Bourgeois failed to get a bunt down.
