SAN DIEGO (AP) — Seattle Mariners manager Scott Servais kept his word to Edwin Diaz
Larry Bowa Jersey , matching the closer’s flashy haircut following a milestone save over the weekend.Servais had promised he’d get a styled cut similar to
Diaz’s if the closer got 50 saves. Diaz notched his 50th save on Saturday, and
Servais sat in the chair for Diaz’s personal barber Tuesday.“I think it’s
looking fresh, man,” Diaz told MLB.com. “I think he looks like the swaggiest
manager in the league.”The hairdo includes a pair of shaved lines along each
side of the head, coming to a point behind the ear before curving toward the
back of the head. Not exactly a natural look for the 51-year-old Servais.“I’ve
got to get some sun on the back of my head, my forehead

team rule. I’ll just have to put my head down and grin and bear it. That’s all I
can do.” SAN DIEGO (AP) — Javy Guerra raced around the bases with one thought in
mind. And even if third base coach Glenn Hoffman had held up his hands, Guerra
was going to ignore them.Freddy Galvis doubled home Guerra from first base with
the winning run in the 15th inning Friday night to give the San Diego Padres a
3-2 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks in a game that lasted 5 hours, 2
minutes.“Even if I get the stop sign, I wasn’t to going stop,” Guerra said.
“Right away I was going to home plate.”Hunter Renfroe’s pinch-hit homer for the
Padres with two outs in the 12th tied the score at 2. Renfroe was a late scratch
from the starting lineup because he was ill.“He wasn’t feeling good at all
today,” manager Andy Green said. “I kept asking if he had a Kirk Gibson moment
in him or a Michael Jordan flu game. He said he had a swing in him
Jim Thome Jersey , and that’s what he had in him. He was able to go out there and gut it out in the outfield. That was gutsy from him.”Archie Bradley gave up
Renfroe’s tying drive.“He was fairly upset about it walking back into the
dugout,” Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said. “I know that Renfroe is a very
capable hitter and if you make a mistake to him in the middle of the zone, he’s
going to punish the ball. Archie’s been very effective as of late … and felt
like it was the right situation. He just made one mistake.”Guerra drew a
pinch-hit walk from Matt Andriese (0-3) leading off the 15th and scored on
Galvis’ double to right field.Colten Brewer (1-0) worked two innings for his
first major league win.“It’s something that I will remember for a long time,”
Brewer said. “I couldn’t be happier and it’s especially gratifying when it came
in a long game like that. I just wanted to pitch in the big leagues and to get a
win feels even better than I imagined.”Nick Ahmed’s sacrifice fly put the
Diamondbacks ahead 2-1 in the top of the 12th. Ahmed sent a shallow fly ball
toward Franmil Reyes in right and initially Ketel Marte wasn’t going to try to
advance from third base. But when Reyes was tardy in throwing the ball in, Marte
took off and was safe on a close play at the plate.Jose Pirela’s home run off
Diamondbacks reliever Silvino Bracho in the seventh tied it 1-all. Arizona had
taken the lead in the top of the inning when Chris Owings scored on a passed
ball.Padres rookie starter Eric Lauer allowed singles to the first two batters
he faced — after limiting the Dodgers to one run over five innings in his
previous outing. But the lefty tiptoed out of trouble in the first two
innings.From there, Lauer settled down. He gave up an unearned run and seven
hits with six strikeouts in 6 1/3 innings.Owings opened the seventh with a
single and John Ryan Murphy followed with a double. With the infield
in
http://www.philliesfanproshop.com/authentic-scott-kingery-jersey , Galvis made a spectacular, over-the-shoulder catch in short center field on
pinch-hitter Patrick Kivlehan’s popup to hold the runners.Marte drew a walk to
load the bases and then rookie catcher Francisco Mejia let Robert Stock’s
outside pitch bounce off his glove. Owings scored to make it 1-0.Arizona starter
Patrick Corbin went five scoreless innings. He allowed three hits and a walk
while striking out four but remained winless since Sept. 7.TRAINER’S ROOMPadres:
