KITZBUEHEL, Austria -- Robin Haase of the Netherlands rallied to defeat top-seeded Philipp Kohlschreiber 6-7 (2), 6-3, 6-2 on Saturday to win the Bet-at-Home Cup for a second straight year. Randall Cobb Womens Jersey . It was the 42nd-ranked Haases second career title in as many finals. The Dutchman took control of the match after an hour-long rain delay at 1-1 in the second set. Kohlschreiber, who is now 4-3 in career finals, will move into the top 20 for the first time when ATP rankings are updated Monday. Kohlschreiber missed six break points as the opening set went with serve. The German won the tiebreaker when Haase hit his third double fault at 6-2 down. Haase converted his first chance on Kohlschreibers serve in the opening game of the second set but dropped his own serve immediately afterward. After the rain delay, Haase dominated play and used two more breaks to take the second set, helped by Kohlschreiber who hit his only double fault in the set at set point down. Like in the opening set, Haase saved six break points in the decider to close out the victory. Both players will next swap the clay for a grass court at the London Olympics, with Haase taking on Richard Gasquet of France and Kohlschreiber facing Blaz Kavcic of Slovenia in the first round. Packers Jerseys . The Milwaukee Brewers had just gained a game, keeping their wild-card chances flickering. Marcum got his first win since returning from an elbow problem, and Ryan Braun hit his NL-leading 41st home run on Wednesday night for an 8-1 victory over the Cincinnati Reds that allowed the Brewers another day to dream. Clay Matthews Autographed Jersey . McLouths bat never co-operated. The Pirates designated McLouth for assignment on Friday and recalled infielder Matt Hague in hopes of injecting some life into their listless offence, which ranks last in the National League in batting average (. http://packersjerseys.ucigreeks.com/[/... . You have to give the New Jersey Devils their due, and I dont think anybody has; certainly not the fans that came to the Staples Center in Los Angeles for what they expected to be a coronation in Game 4. [url=http://packersjerseys.ucigreeks.com/]Packers Autographed Jerseys . The 19-year-old forward scored once for London and has nine goals and 17 assists during his streak. He now has 19 goals and 44 points in 26 contests, which is good for second in OHL scoring. Aaron Rodgers Womens Jersey . Harangody recently underwent arthroscopic knee surgery and is expected to be sidelined for another month. The former Notre Dame star appeared in 42 games over the past two seasons for Cleveland, averaging 4. GREEN BAY, Wis. -- As if bearing the brunt of the call that ultimately led to the end of the NFLs replacement officials wasnt enough, Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers nearly had a big comeback win undone by a blunder from the regular refs. Rodgers threw a go-ahead touchdown to Jordy Nelson in the fourth quarter, and the Packers shook off a weeks worth of controversy with a rally to beat the New Orleans Saints 28-27 on Sunday. With Lambeau Field fans howling about what appeared to be yet another bad call -- this time by the regular officials, not the replacements -- Garrett Hartley missed a 48-yard field goal attempt with just under three minutes remaining that cost the Saints a shot at the lead. "Weve probably had to deal with more adversity than most of the teams Ive played with, especially early on weve had some interesting games already," Rodgers said. "Were four games in. So, I think the character of this team is very strong. Winning games like this says a lot about the kind of men that we have." Rodgers threw for 319 yards with four touchdowns and an interception for the Packers (2-2). "Im very proud of our football team, especially the week weve endured," Packers coach Mike McCarthy said. "We talk a lot about integrity and character, and I thought todays game had plenty of those types of situations where it showed up big." Drew Brees threw for 446 yards with three touchdowns for the winless Saints (0-4). "Its going to hurt when you lose a game like this," Saints interim coach Aaron Kromer said. "But I will not let them get down. We are too close." Brees now has thrown at least one touchdown in 47 straight regular-season games, tying the NFLs all-time mark set by Johnny Unitas. "Yeah, its disappointing," Brees said of the loss. "It stinks. But despite where were at, right now I think this teams going to do something." With the win, the Packers were able to put Monday nights controversial replacement official-driven loss at Seattle behind them. But even with the regular refs back this week, the Packers and their fans still nearly were dealt a crushing blow on a blown call. After Rodgers touchdown to Nelson, Darren Sproles appeared to fumble the ensuing kickoff but officials ruled that he was down by contact. Replays showed that the ball clearly came out but the Packers were out of replay challenges, leaving Packers fans screaming at the officials for the second week in a row. "You guys were all happy that the officials were back, and we tried to tell you that theyd still get booed," Nelson said with a laugh. Brees then led the Saints into field goal range, and Hartley hit a 43-yard attempt -- but the Saints were called for holding, forcing HHartley to line up a 53-yarder. Authentic Aaron Rodgers Jersey. The Packers then were called for encroachment, leaving Hartley to try a 48-yarder and he missed it wide left. It was a sigh of relief for the Packers, who spent most of the week in the middle of a nationwide firestorm after a last-second decision by replacement officials cost them a game at Seattle on Monday night. It was a burden for the Packers to bear, but likely played a significant role in the NFL agreeing to a deal with its regular officials during the week. Referee Jeff Triplette struck a triumphant tone during the pregame coin toss Sunday, announcing that "its great to be back, gentlemen!" A handful of Packers fans came to the game dressed as officials, and some brought signs showing support for the regular refs. The honeymoon didnt last long. Fans howled for an offensive pass interference call after Brees threw a 20-yard touchdown pass to Marques Colston late in the first quarter, but no flag was forthcoming. With the Packers leading 21-14 in the third quarter, fans -- and McCarthy -- were on the officials again when McCarthy challenged a catch by Jimmy Graham but it wasnt overturned. A 20-yard field goal by Hartley cut the lead to 21-17 with 9:41 left in the third quarter. Rodgers responded with a drive but needed attention from the teams training staff after getting poked in the eye on a face mask by New Orleans Malcolm Jenkins. "I wanted to stay in the game -- obviously, I dont like coming out for anything," Rodgers said. "Just didnt have any depth perception immediately thereafter and so I figured we were a yard away and we could punch that thing in there. Unfortunately, didnt happen." Rodgers came out of the game for one play and backup quarterback Graham Harrell came in -- then tripped and fumbled as he tried to hand it off, allowing the Saints to get the ball. Brees then found Joseph Morgan wide open behind the defence for an 80-yard touchdown and a 24-21 lead. Rodgers then threw an interception to Patrick Robinson and the Saints drove for a 27-yard field goal by Hartley to take a 27-21 lead with 13:04 remaining. With the Packers trailing by 6, Rodgers threw an 11-yard strike to Nelson as the Saints Corey White tried to wrap his arms around the ball -- briefly re-creating a scene eerily similar to the controversial game-ender in Seattle on Monday. This time, though, Nelson clearly came away with the ball and spiked it emphatically. NOTES: Packers S M.D. Jennings, who played a key role in the controversial play at Seattle, left the game with a shoulder injury. ... Packers WR Greg Jennings caught a touchdown in the second quarter but later came out of the game. Jennings has been struggling to stay healthy with a groin injury. ' ' '
