CINCINNATI >> Given the instability in their starting rotation and the health issues that have plagued that group this season, the Dodgers expecting Brett Anderson to retu from back surgery and morph into a workhorse was akin to buying exercise equipment from an infomercial. Disappointment was almost inevitable.
Anderson couldn’t make it through four iings without another injury in his second start of the season. Things weren’t going very well before he left either as the Cinciati Reds pounded the Dodgers 11-1 Saturday night in a game interrupted for over an hour by rain.
The Dodgers were outhit 18-3 in the loss, their third in a row. It is their first three-game losing streak since July 5-7 and they have been outscored 25-7 during this one. But the San Francisco Giants also lost Saturday, leaving the Dodgers just a half-game out of first place in the NL West.

DEL MAR >> Remember when some were calling Califoia Chrome a weak Kentucky Derby wier in 2014? Some in Louisville cringed the day he won the country’s most famous horse race. He wasn’t a mile and a quarter horse, they claimed beforehand.
Wonder what those same folks are saying today after Califoia Chrome toyed with arguably the toughest Pacific Classic field in the Del Mar race’s 26 ruings Saturday, demolishing a field that included three-time Eclipse Award wier Beholder and the highly respected Dortmund.
Final tally? Califoia Chrome by five lengths under a perfect ride by Victor Espinoza, who guided the 5-year-old son of Lucky Pulpit to a gate-to-wire victory through fractions of 23.20, 47.29, 1:11.22 and 1:35.69. Final time for the 1 1/4 miles was 2:00.13, but it could have been faster if Espinoza hadn’t taken a long hold late.

ANAHEIM>> Garret Anderson knocked the dust of his 2002 World Series championship ring Saturday moing.
The Angels all-time leader in seven offensive categories called it the only tangible thing from his 20-year baseball career. He wore it when he became the 14th individual inducted into the Angels Hall of Fame in a pregame ceremony on Saturday, where Angels owner Arte Moreno presented Anderson with a couple more tangible reminders of his lofty place in Angels history, a Hall of Fame ring and a bright red jacket.
“Even watching video (of my career), it still doesn’t feel real to me,” Anderson said before the ceremony. “I can drive by the stadium taking my kids somewhere and it still feels like I honestly didn’t play there. I wish I could hold onto something to let me know it was real. Even though I played 20 years of pro ball, snap, it was gone.”

ANAHEIM >> A day after Angels owner Arte Moreno cited a lack of pitching in defense of manager Mike Scioscia’s role in the team’s dip 20 games below .500, Ricky Nolasco didn’t debunk the argument.
The trade deadline acquisition, who Moreno owes $12 million next year, dropped his third game in four starts in an Angels uniform, surrendering an early lead to the Yankees in a 5-1 loss on Saturday at Angel Stadium.
Entering Saturday, Angels starters had a collective 5.04 ERA, the fourth worst in the major leagues.
Nolasco gave up five runs in six iings, swelling his ERA to 5.22 on the season, but allowed all seven of his hits with two outs.
“I thought I was pretty good, just couldn’t finish two guys off with two outs,” Nolasco said. “That was the whole game.”
In Nolasco’s defense, the Angels have scored a total of two runs while he’s been on the mound in his three

LA QUINTA >> The oldest living Ram is Jim Hardy. He’s been too busy living to notice.
Every week Hardy drives two hours to watch USC practice. He quarterbacked two Rose Bowl victories for the Trojans, in 1944 and 1945. He and his wife Henrietta, whom he calls Hank, don’t miss USC home games either.
He is 93. He drives, without glasses. He takes not one single pill. “My blood pressure is real low,” he said.
He can sit in his handsome house at the La Quinta Golf Estates, and pull up obscure names from more than 60 years ago, as he did Wednesday. As the former general manager of the Coliseum Commission, he’s glad the Rams are back there.
And he seems determined to stick around until USC wins another national championship.
“I guess it’s sad that a guy my age hasn’t gotten over being a freshman,” Hardy said.
So he goes to a health club in the desert, nearly every day,

Los Angeles Rams season ticket holder Jamaal Artis crawled down the 110 Freeway, inched for what seemed like an eteity on side streets toward Exposition Park, then drew a breath upon seeing the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum — billed as “the greatest stadium in the world.”
As a teen, Artis had come to the Coliseum with his father, Andrew, for deafening USC Trojan games. Now he clutched the hand of his 5-year-old son, Evan, and squeezed into its narrow tuel jammed with fans. And emerged into the great bowl of cheering retuing Ramdom.
“It felt like home,” said Artis, 36, a registered nurse who lives in Echo Park, of last Saturday’s preseason game, which drew a record-breaking 89,140 fans. “It brought back a flood of memories.

RIO DE JANEIRO >> He had just created a moment that lifted the entire country.
But Neymar reacted by instead falling to his knees, raising his outstretched arms and sobbing.
His score Saturday gave host Brazil a desperate 5-4 victory in a penalty shootout over Germany, after the teams had played to a 1-1 draw.
The shot secured this soccer-crazed nation its first Olympic gold medal in its beloved sport.
“This is one of the best things that has happened in my life,” Neymar said. “The only thing on my mind was I had to do this.”
The victory came before nearly 65,000 inside Maracana Stadium, a place that has hosted its share of soccer history.
It avenged Germany’s stuing 7-1 victory over Brazil in the semifinals of the 2014 World Cup, although no players from Saturday’s game participated in the blowout two years ago.

The enthusiasm in Mike Hopkins’ voice sounded clear as he spoke into the phone.
He just finished another practice as a court coach for the U.S. Olympic men’s basketball team, leaving him inspired about working with some of the NBA’s best players. That did not mark the only thing that made Hopkins feel excited, though.
He expressed appreciation for being a Syracuse assistant under Hall of Fame coach Jim Boeheim for the last 21 years. He sounded optimistic about remaining the expected head coach in waiting.
Hopkins laughed as he charted his own jouey from a Syracuse benchwarmer to captain. He reflected with nostalgia on playing for his alma mater, Santa Ana Mater Dei, which he considered “one of the greatest high schools on the planet.”
All of those moments featured a common thread that explained Hopkins’ endless trajectory despite encountering endless obstacles.

RIO DE JANEIRO >> The Paralympics will go ahead in Rio next month but organizers say deep budget cuts mean one venue will close down, facilities will be dismantled and the workforce will be reduced.
Poor ticket sales have compounded existing financial challenges in recession-battered Brazil that have already hit operations at the Rio Olympics, which close Sunday.
Rio has less than three weeks to prepare for Paralympics, the piacle of the disability sport calendar where organizers hoped to build on progress made at the well-attended games in London four years ago. But Rio organizers have reported sales of just over 290,000 tickets for the Sept. 7-18 Paralympics.
“At this point, it is difficult for us to expect the full venues that we saw in Beijing or London, or expect to see in Tokyo in four years’ time,” Inteational Paralympic Committee President Philip Craven said Frid

RIO DE JANEIRO >> Geno Auriemma and Diana Taurasi shared a long, emotional embrace. Mission accomplished.
The U.S. women’s basketball team won a sixth consecutive Olympic gold medal in dominant fashion, routing Spain 101-72 on Saturday. Taurasi, who is originally from Chino, and the Americans played nearly flawless basketball in Rio, and were never challenged. They have won 49 consecutive games in the Olympics with only one of those decided by single digits.
With that kind of sustained success, no one wants to say this is the best women’s basketball team ever assembled. They won by nearly 40 points a game, but fell short of the record 102.4 points the 1996 team averaged.
But if they aren’t the best ever, they’re close. There never really was any doubt that the U.S. would win the gold in Rio. The only question was by how much.
Still, closure to their jouey Saturday had Au

ANAHEIM >> Arte Moreno has no illusions about what has gone wrong, and what could have been done, to keep his team from this miserable season.
“It’s pretty hard to win when you have no pitching,” the Angels owner said Friday, referring to the spate of injuries that shattered the club’s pitching staff.
While there are some cries from frustrated fans that the Angels need an organizational shakeup — starting with the end of Mike Scioscia’s 17-year run as the manager — Moreno shrugged it off.
“I don’t care who you put on the coaching staff,” he said, “if you don’t have any pitching, it’s pretty hard to win.”
Moreno addressed the team’s disappointing season, how they got here and how they can tu things around, in an interview with the Southe Califoia News Group. It was his the first interview since early in spring training for the Angels owner.

As he tries to hang on to his career, Jered Weaver reached a new low Friday night.
Weaver gave up four homers in the Angels’ 7-0 loss to the New York Yankees, bringing his season total to 30 for the first time in his career.
Weaver’s previous worst was 27, and he matched that on the first batter of the game, when Jacoby Ellsbury hit one into the right-field seats.
The Yankees had just a 2-0 lead before Weaver gave up three solo homers in the fifth, to Ronald Torreyes, Didi Gregorius and Gary Sanchez.
That was all for the fourth game in Weaver’s career in which he had allowed four homers, the first since April 6, 2014.
The performance lifted his ERA to 5.47, well above last year’s 4.64 mark that was his previous career worst.
The 33-year-old Weaver said after his last outing, on Sunday in Cleveland, that he was thinking this could be his final season.
Previously, however, he had

CINCINNATI >> The Dodgers look forward to the days when starting pitchers such as Rich Hill and Clayton Kershaw move from the DL to their rotation.
This retu they could probably have done without.
Right-hander Bud Norris was activated from the DL on Friday after missing 2 1/2 weeks with a strained muscle in his back. The Cinciati Reds were certainly happy to see him back on a pitcher’s mound. They pounded him for six runs in less than four iings on the way to a 9-2 victory over the Dodgers at Great American Ball Park.
The Dodgers have lost back-to-back games for only the second time in the past two weeks and could fall out of first place depending on the outcome of the San Francisco Giants’ late game against the New York Mets on Friday. The Dodgers started the day with a half-game lead over the Giants in the NL West.

LAS VEGAS >> The time for the trash-talking and bottle-chucking is thankfully over.
Bring on the welterweight rematch between Nate Diaz and featherweight champion Conor McGregor.
The heated rivals will step back into the Octagon in the UFC 202 main event Saturday at T-Mobile Arena, more than five months after their epic welterweight clash at UFC 196.
In March, Diaz famously stepped up on 11 days’ notice after a broken foot forced then-lightweight champion Rafael Dos Anjos out of his bout with McGregor, who was looking to become the first fighter to hold two UFC belts at the same time.
McGregor and Diaz agreed to fight at 170 pounds — 25 pounds greater than the division McGregor reigns. Despite being a heavy underdog, a bloodied Diaz weathered McGregor’s best in the first round and stued the MMA world by forcing a second-round tapout due to a rear-naked choke.

LOS ANGELES >> By not showing up, Tre Mason made a huge impact on the Rams’ ruing-back battle in training camp.
If Mason had not been arrested in March, to start an apparently sad, complicated saga in his life, the Rams’ depth chart would have been fairly well set with Todd Gurley, Mason and Bey Cuingham. That’s a mix of speed and power that would have made it tough for anyone else to crack the rotation.
Instead, more than halfway through training camp, there’s intriguing flux, and heading into Saturday’s preseason game between the Rams and Kansas City Chiefs, there’s at least one job to be won.
“I want the best backs to be on the roster, no matter who that is,” Cuingham said this week. “You just try to come out and compete and set the bar for the next guy. Hopefully we can make each other better, with the competition being so strong.”

Venturing down memory lane to coect Rams’ past to Rams’ current, there’s a curious, colorful sidepath that leads to Paraquat Kelley.
Southe Califoia rock music fans from the 1970s and ‘80s grew up with the exuberant and iconic KMET radio personality – “Whoo-ya!” – who jokingly took his nickname from the toxic weed killer in the news 40 years ago because of how it was a health hazard to unwitting marijuana users (Kelley was not one).
But what’s really in a name? Kelley.
As in Bob Kelley, the Rams’ well-known play-by-play man from the moment the team arrived in Los Angeles in 1946 and the radio voice through the ‘50s and ‘60s on the old KMPC-AM 710 signal.
That’s Patrick “Paraquat” Kelley’s dad.
Pat was 16 when his father passed away in Sept., 1966, much too young at the age of 49. His chair was passed onto a very young Dick Enberg just days before th

The United States will play for another gold medal in men’s basketball, and they’ll be doing it thanks largely to Clippers center DeAndre Jordan.
On the surface, this seems like a remarkable sentence.
Jordan is the third best player on his team, he can’t make free throws and he’s not exactly a tactician with the ball in the post.
But Jordan’s performance Friday in Rio de Janeiro was another reminder that it’s what Jordan can do that matters – not what he can’t.
In a touament in which the U.S. has had to sweat out wins in the early rounds, they’ve handled two veteran teams in the medal rounds, beating Argentina in the quarterfinals before beating Pau Gasol, Ricky Rubio and Spain on Friday in the semifinals, 82-76.
For long stretches, Jordan looked like the best player on the court, soaring for put-back jams and patrolling the paint, swatting away shots and grabbing ev

ANAHEIM >> More than once this season, Angels catcher Geovany Soto told teammate Carlos Perez to relax. And more than once, the 25-year-old Perez would grip the bat tightly, resisting the advice of his 33-year-old mentor.
Perez ultimately leaed his lesson the hard way.
By the All-Star break, he had nearly as many strikeouts (35) as hits (38). His .204 batting average left the Angels little choice but to send him to Triple-A Salt Lake to clear his mind.
It worked. As soon as he arrived in Salt Lake, Perez said, “I just felt like you don’t have to have that kind of pressure. Just play. When I came back the first time, that’s what I did.”
Perez, who was recalled for a second time Wednesday when Soto was placed on the 15-day disabled list, is over his slump. Perez has 11 hits in 32 at-bats since his first demotion, a .344 average. The soft-spoken Venezuelan has cut down on h

LOS ANGELES >> Jack Jones’ pledge to USC last February started with flash.
When Jones aounced his commitment in February, he did so in a three-minute video with rapper Snoop Dogg.
As the clip winds down, Snoop tus to the five-star prospect from Long Beach Poly High School and asks, “Mr. President, can you let everyone know where you’ll be playing at for the next four years?” Jones stands up on command and raises his right hand to flash the school’s “Fight On” sign as cardinal and gold balloons fall down.
Jones’ first fall camp at USC has provided some highlights too.
Last week, he leveled fullback Reuben Peters in the flats during an 11-on-11 drill. It drew quite the reaction from one sideline. A number of players started dancing in celebration.
The 5-foot-11 defensive back has also seen the chance to work out on special teams as a punt retuer.

RIO DE JANIERO >> The U.S. team made the most of its second chance to qualify for the women’s 4x100-meter relay final, ruing the fastest time of the day in a solo re-run before the night session began.
The Americans dropped the baton during the moing preliminaries and appeared to be out of contention.
But track officials upheld the U.S. protest because Allyson Felix was jostled by a Brazilian ruer, in the next lane, as she tried to hand the baton to English Gardner on the second exchange. The U.S. finished the race, 10 seconds off the pace. If the team had not finished, it could not have lodged a protest.
Because relay finals must be limited to eight teams, the Americans were called back to run all by themselves, in the same order and in the same lane. Their goal was to beat the time of 42.70 seconds run by China. They ran a 41.77, almost a second faster, evening bettering

LAS VEGAS >> The UFC’s next big thing is ready for approach — and his landing could come at UFC 202.
Cody Garbrandt, a rising star out of Sacramento’s Team Alpha Male, is in an ideal spot Saturday when he takes on Japanese veteran Takeya Mizugaki in the featured bout on the UFC 202 prelims card on Fox Sports 1.
Nicknamed “No Love,” Garbrandt is about as recognizable as they come: handsome and typically sharply dressed, with countless tattoos covering most of his body, including his neck where it meets his trim beard.
He’s also the eighth-ranked bantamweight in the UFC, sporting a spotless 9-0 record. And he just tued 25 last month.
“Cody’s looking great. It’s fight week. That’s when he really comes alive. That’s when the ‘No Love’ character comes out,” Team Alpha Male coach and former UFC fighter Justin Buchholz said. “He’s like a sweetheart of a

Such audacity would have been laughable from any other sprinter. Then again there never has been any other sprinter like Bolt. Besides, the result Thursday night was never in doubt, even the most remote of chances for an upset vanquished before the race even hit the homestretch.
Bolt once again reduced the rest the field at a major championships to spectators, racing to a 19.78 victory in his last individual Olympic final.

RIO DE JANEIRO >> Helen Maroulis made a great run in women’s wrestling Thursday, reaching the gold medal match at 53-kg in the Rio Olympics.
Once there, she reached an entirely higher level, defeating a legend in the sport, Japan’s Saori Yoshida, 4-1.
It was the first Olympic gold medal for an American in women’s wrestling.
Maroulis lives in Huntington Beach, where she shares a room with teammate Elena Pirozhkova, who lost to Yekaterina Larionova of Kazakhstan 5-0 later Thursday in the bronze-medal match in the 63-kg class.
Yoshida, 33, a 13-time world champion, is a three-time Olympic gold medalist, her fame such that she has an award named after her in her hometown and made a cameo on a drama TV series in Japan. She was Japan’s flag bearer in London and the country’s delegation captain here, a first for a female athlete for Japan.

NBC’s resources are pretty vast and fast in this department, and through one sector or another it can blanket this better than anyone and then construct a nifty package out of it, between those long lulls at the track stadium where we get another shot of Usain Bolt loitering under the stands without getting arrested.
But as the clock struck 10 p.m. during Wednesday night’s prime-time coverage, one could easily read the sm

ANAHEIM >> Mike Trout — and the Angels — had their hopes dashed by a surprising slider and an electric fastball.
The Angels superstar came to the plate twice in Wednesday night’s game against the Seattle Mariners with the potential tying runs on base, and both times he struck out.

However, Felix told NBC that she was contacted, and a replay did in fact confirm that the Brazilian third leg, ruing next to the Americans, swung her elbow far into the American lane, contacting Felix as she attempted to hand Gardner the baton.
USA Track & Field submitted a protest of the race, and the Brazilian team was disqualified. After a lengthy debate, the appeal jury for the IATF (the goveing inteational federation for the sport) agreed that the Americans’ chances were unfairly impacted by the contact. The IATF granted the USA a Hail Mary heat—the defending gold medalists will run a solo heat a
