DAVIE, Fla. -- Reggie Bush has joined the Miami Dolphins injury list with a sore knee. The teams leading rusher was added to the injury report after being limited in practice Thursday. Bush hurt his left knee Sept. 23 against the New York Jets but has started every game. The Dolphins (2-3) are already thin at running back going into Sundays game against St. Louis (3-2). Backup Daniel Thomas sat out practice for the second day in a row after suffering a concussion for the second time this season last Sunday. Cornerback Richard Marshall remained sidelined with a back injury. He missed Sundays win at Cincinnati. wholesale nfl jerseys . -- Strong safety Kam Chancellor is set to play for the Seattle Seahawks against San Francisco despite an ankle injury that limited him in practice this week. cheap jerseys from china . Life is never bland when youre a struggling closer in New York. "I like the challenge," Francisco said Monday night after saving a 3-1 victory for Miguel Batista and the surprising Mets against the Milwaukee Brewers. http://www.cheapsoccerjerseys.us.com/... . "Team B" went on a spending spree adding an MVP candidate at shortstop, a top-notch starting pitcher and a blue chip closer. Team A kept its payroll in the $70 to $80 million range.

Fiers (8-6) held the Cubs to four hits and struck out six, helping Milwaukee beat its division rival for the 13th time in 16 games this season. The Brewers have won eight of their last nine overall and moved within five games of .(Sports Network) - Left-hander Zach Britton goes after a fifth straight win on Sunday when the Baltimore Orioles close out a four-game series with the New York Yankees at Camden Yards. Hell have to do so, though, without the services of outfielder Nick Markakis, who broke his thumb after getting hit with a CC Sabathia pitch in Saturdays 5-4 win and will miss the remainder of the regular season. "Its broken. A minimum of six weeks, but its so preliminary right now," said Orioles manager Buck Showalter after the game. "Theyll get some more pictures. ... I knew when I looked at it going out there. Im sure you guys that have been around Nicky know when he comes out of a game that quick, its not good. It breaks my heart, personally, and for him. I know how much this time of the season means to him. Well go forward from there." The Orioles moved back into a first-place tie with the Yankees with a little help from the umpires on Saturday. Baltimore overcame an early two-run hole thanks to home runs from Lew Ford, J.J. Hardy and Mark Reynolds, but New York rallied in the ninth. Holding a 5-3 lead, Orioles closer Jim Johnson gave up back-to-back singles to Ichiro Suzuki and Eric Chavez before Derek Jeters bunt single loaded the bases with no outs. Nick Swisher plated a run when he grounded into a fielders choice. Mark Teixeira, who returned to the lineup after missing 10 games with a strained left calf, hit a grounder to second that turned into a game-ending double play. Teixeira appeared to be safe as he slid into first, leading to frustration for New York. "Sometimes you wonder if the umpires are just trying to get out of there," Teixeira said. "They dont want you to make a comeback. They want to go home, because those are terrible calls." Then, to add injury to insult, Teixeira aggravated the calf injury and will miss Sundays finale. Still, Johnson earned his 42nd save, as the Orioles won for the fifth time in seven tries. Alex Rodriguez hit a solo homer and knocked in two runs for the Yankees, who have lost seven of their last 10 games. Sabathia (13-5) gave up five runs on eight hits while striking out five over 6 1/3 innings. He fell to 16-4 lifetime against the Os, but failed to hold a lead for the Yankees for the third straight start. "I feel like Im letting everybody down, not going out and making pitches I need to make," Sabathia said. "We had a 2-0 lead and I come right back and give it up. Thats not me. Hopefully I can correct this thing and go out and pitch well next time." Britton, meanwhile, won again on Tuesday with a terrific effort in Toronto that saw him scatter four hits over seven scoreless innings. He also struck out eight and ran his record to 5-1 to go along with a 4.15 ERA. "I think when he misses a few times, hes able to adjust and make a good pitch -- its not just sort of aim for the middle, hes able to hit a good spot," said Os catcher Matt Wieters. He has a 0.94 ERA during his four-game winning streak and a 29-7 strikeout-to- walk ratio. Britton had struck out a career-high 10 batters in his previous trip to the hill. Britton, though, will be looking to avenge his lone loss this season against the Yankees back on Aug.1 when he was pounded for seven runs in just 2 2/3 innings. In five starts against the Yankees he is 1-2 with a 6.95 ERA. Opposing him will be veteran Freddy Garcia, who is 7-6 with a 5.09 ERA, but is winless in his last three starts. Garcia took the loss on Tuesdayy against Tampa Bay, as he was hit for five runs and five hits and walked four batters in 5 1/3 innings.dddddddddddd "Thats my fault today," said Garcia. "I gave up five runs; we lost, 5-2. Like I say, I dont make the pitch when I need it, and thats why I got hurt." Garcia lost to the Orioles the last time he faced them and is 6-8 with a 4.34 ERA in 20 games (18 starts) against them. Despite Saturdays loss, the Yanks have won five of eight in Baltimore this season and 22 of 32 at Camden Yards since last losing a series of at least two games there April 6-9, 2009. The Orioles have won nine of 17 games with the Yankees this season. Rangers at Rays (Sports Network) - Roy Oswalt returns to the Texas Rangers rotation on Sunday when they play the rubber match of a three-game set with the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field. Oswalt hasnt started since he picked up a no decision against the Minnesota Twins on Aug. 23. Hes since pitched 2 1/3 innings in relief, but Texas manager Ron Washington decided to give him the start in an effort to give Matt Harrison an extra couple of days rest. Tampa, meanwhile, will counter with right-hander James Shields, who has won five of his last six decisions. Shields latest win came on Monday against the New York Yankees, as he allowed three runs and five hits in eight innings to improve to 14-8, while lowering his ERA to 3.88. Tigers at Angels (Sports Network) - The move to acquire Zack Greinke is beginning to pay off for the LA Angels of Anaheim and the right-hander looks to keep his unbeaten streak intact in the finale of a three-game series versus the Detroit Tigers. Greinke is 3-0 with a 1.66 earned run average and 16 strikeouts in his last three starts, spanning 21 2/3 innings, and fired seven innings of one-run ball in a 6-1 win at Oakland last time out Tuesday. He improved to 4-2 in eight starts with the Halos to go along with a 4.36 earned run average. Detroit will counter with Anibal Sanchez. Much like Greinke, Sanchez was acquired in a deal and came over from the Miami Marlins. Even though he has given up two earned runs in his last three starts, Sanchez is 1-1 in that time. He last toed the rubber in a 3-2 loss to Cleveland and did not figure into the decision, permitting two unearned runs in six frames. The Angels are even with Tampa Bay at two games off a wild card spot, and will host Oakland for four games on this homestand. Athletics at Mariners (Sports Network) - The Oakland Athletics have their sights set on a sweep of the Seattle Mariners today at Safeco Field. The As have posted back-to-back 6-1 victories and received another strong outing from Brett Anderson last night, as he allowed one unearned run in six innings for the victory. Pat Neshek, Sean Doolittle and Evan Scribner held the Mariners off the board the rest of the way. Milone was tagged for five runs and 10 hits, and dropped to 11-10 in 26 starts while his ERA went from 3.73 to 3.94. Opposing batters are hitting .267 against the left-hander this season. Milone faced the Mariners in a 4-1 win on July 6 and did not factor in the outcome, as he struck out nine and permitted just one run through seven innings. Jason Vargas looks to extend his career-high win total to 15 games when he toes the rubber this afternoon for Seattle. Vargas was 0-1 in three starts before defeating Boston with seven innings of one-run ball, five strikeouts and no walks in a 4-1 win on Monday. He lifted his record to 14-9 in 29 starts to go along with a 3.85 earned run average. ' ' '
