MONTREAL -- The Montreal Impact will play friendly matches against Serie-A clubs Bologna and Fiorentino on a post-season tour of Italy, the Major League Soccer club announced Friday. . The Nov. 5-17 trip will see Impact designated player Marco Di Vaio face his former team Bologna on Nov. 8. The club will travel to Florence to play Fiorentino on Nov. 15. "This trip will give us the opportunity to extend our season by three weeks and cut down on the down time prior to the opening of training camp for the 2013 season," Impact sporting director Nick De Santis said in a statement. "We would like to thank the two clubs for giving us the opportunity to organize these games, despite the fact that they are in mid-season of their championships. This trip will also help us forge a stronger relationship with two prestigious organizations and could open doors for players wishing to play in North America one day." Di Vaio scored 65 goals in 143 matches with Bologna FC from 2008 to 2012. "It will be an honour and a pleasure to see Marco once again and meet his new teammates," said Bologna president Albano Guaraldi. "For everything Marco Di Vaio meant to Bologna, the city and its team, we are very pleased to be able to spend an afternoon celebrating with him." The Impact have a strong Italian presence, including former national team defenders Alessandro Nesta and Matteo Ferrari. Defender Nelson Rivas, midfielder Felipe Martins and striker Bernardo Corradi also played in Italy, although all three are out with long-term injuries. The Impact, who are eliminated from the MLS playoffs, visit Toronto FC on Saturday and end the regular season Oct. 27 at home against New England.

Kinsler hit a leadoff home run and Mitch Moreland launched a 463-foot shot, leading Ryan Dempster and the Rangers over the Minnesota Twins 9-3 Saturday for their fourth straight win. Kinsler homered in the first inning, hit a bases-loaded triple in the third that made it 9-0 and also singled. Texas had 11 hits by the third, including six for extra bases. "Its tough as an offence to have every single guy going well," Kinsler said. "Right now its happening. It seems like were seeing a lot of pitches and making the pitchers work." The Rangers, who have outscored opponents 39-12 during their winning streak, got 14 hits. The only Texas player without one was Adrian Beltre, who went 0 for 4 a day after hitting for the cycle. "Theyve been doing that a lot for everybody, getting four or five runs in an inning," Dempster said. "The game plan is still the same. But you have a little leeway when one run is not going to change the game." The AL West leaders have won eight of nine against the Twins this season. "Were swinging the bat pretty well," Moreland said. "One through nine, there are no breaks." Justin Morneau went 4 for 4 with a home run for Minnesota, which has lost five in a row and 14 of 16 overall. Dempster allowed two runs in six innings and improved to 3-1 since he was acquired from the Cubs on July 31. He was 5-5 with Chicago. After two shaky outings in his first three starts with Texas, Dempster has yielded just three runs in 14 innings over his last two starts. He struck out seven and walked two to beat the Twins for the second time this season. Brian Duensing (3-9) gave up a career-worst nine runs in 2 1-3 innings. It was another disappointing outing for Minnesotas starting pitchers this series -- they have allowed 18 earned runs and 24 hits in 9 2-3 innings. "It was really tough," Duenssing said. [url=http://www.lionsofficialteamstore.com/autographed-david-akers-jersey-uz-47.... Akers Jersey. "I had a bad day that came at the worst possible time." Duensing was coming off one of his best outings of the season, having held Oakland to two runs in six innings on Monday. But the left-hander got off to a rough start when Kinsler drove his third pitch into the seats in left. It was Kinslers 25th career leadoff homer. Nelson Cruz added an RBI double in the first to make it 2-0. Morelands three-run homer in the second inning was the third-longest shot at the Rangers stadium. Josh Hamilton hit the longest, a 490-foot drive in 2010. Moreland made his first start against a left-hander this season. "I come in every day ready to play," Moreland said. "I saw my name in the lineup and went out like I do every day." Geovany Soto had an RBI single and Texas loaded the bases in the third to chase Duensing. Kinsler, the second batter reliever Alex Burnett faced, tripled to deep right-centre. Morneaus 17th home run of the season in the fourth was the first homer by Minnesota since Aug. 17. In the sixth, Morneau was thrown at home by Craig Gentry trying to score on a single to centre.
