ANAHEIM, Calif.
Cheap Hurricanes Jerseys . -- C.J. Wilson wasnt threatened by the swarm of bees that took
over the Angel Stadium field during two brief game delays. With little help from
his teammates, the Los Angeles Angels durable left-hander couldnt avoid a
streak-snapping loss. Justin Smoak hit a tiebreaking two-run homer, Felix
Hernandez had 10 strikeouts in a four-inning start and the Seattle Mariners beat
the Angels 3-2 Sunday in a game delayed twice by bees. Both teams retreated to
their dugouts during an initial 23-minute delay in the third inning when the
bees roamed over the right side of the field and eventually hovered near the
ficus trees beyond the wall in centre. The Angels had two runners on and two
outs when the bees interrupted. Most fans stayed in their seats as a few brave
grounds crew members and crowd volunteers attempted to deter the swarm with a
broom, a Gatorade cooler and a cardboard box. "That dude just came out of the
stands and said Its OK. Im a beekeeper," Wilson said. "It was like a Seinfeld
episode. Do you tip a bee guy? Throw him a 20? I dont carry cash on me when Im
pitching, so it wouldnt have been me." Hernandez escaped a bases-loaded jam when
the game resumed, but there was another short delay in the fourth when Mike
Trout and Kole Calhoun began swatting at more bees in the outfield. "I thought
they had gotten rid of all of them, and then when I got out there, all the fans
were yelling: Theyre on the ground! Theyre on the ground!" Calhoun said. "So Im
looking around and I see them swarming and stuff, and then I see a pile of bees
on the ground -- hundreds and hundreds of bees. There were bees everywhere. I
had to call (umpire) Jim Joyce over there." A quick blast from the fire
extinguisher dissuaded the bees from sticking around. "Kole was really freaking
out all of a sudden because I guess there was a softball-size bee colony that
was swarming on the ground," Wilson said. "It was amazing. Ive never seen that
before." Wilson (17-7) pitched eight-hit ball into the ninth inning but lost for
the first time since July 5 against Boston, ending streaks of nine straight
victories and 13 consecutive starts without a loss. The left-hander struck out
nine while reaching 200 innings for the fourth consecutive season. Wilson had
two outs and two strikes before Smoak lifted a tailing fly into the short stands
down the left-field line. The homer was Smoaks 18th this season, but his first
batting right-handed. Wilson got a big ovation when he left with one out in the
ninth after 123 pitches. He has been the Angels best pitcher in their
disappointing season, going 13-1 with a 2.91 ERA in his previous 18 starts since
June 14. "Its frustrating to get outpitched, but it happens," Wilson said.
Calhoun hit a solo homer in the eighth inning, and Efren Navarro got his first
career RBI for the Angels, who couldnt finish off a three-game sweep. Los
Angeles had won nine of 11 and 21 of 28 for the majors best record since late
August despite getting eliminated from playoff contention on Saturday. Los
Angeles had plenty of opportunities to help out Wilson, but stranded three
runners in the seventh and two more in the eighth. Despite the bees rude
interruptions, Hernandez set a major league record for strikeouts in a
four-inning start. King Felix hadnt pitched in 20 days since leaving a loss at
Kansas City on Sept. 2 with a strained oblique muscle. Hernandez walked four and
gave up a run in the Angels second-inning rally, but otherwise looked sharp in
his return to the rotation. "I was just trying not to overthrow, just throw
strikes," said Hernandez, who left feeling fine after 92 pitches. "It was a
little different with the bees. I was talking to the guys: Im going to be in the
clubhouse if they come over here." Oliver Perez (3-3) struck out the side in the
fifth inning after relieving Hernandez. Danny Farquhar, the Mariners fifth
reliever, pitched the ninth for his 15th save in 19 chances. "We had to use a
lot of guys, most of which were tired and at the end of their ropes, but they
did fine," Seattle manager Eric Wedge said. Mike Zunino had an early RBI double
in just the third win in 14 games for the Mariners. NOTES: Just eight pitchers
have thrown 200 innings in each of the past four seasons. ... Seattle had lost
five straight to Los Angeles. ... The Angels last five games have been decided
by one run.

Cheap Hurricanes Jerseys
Authentic .C. -- After turning Tobacco Road into "Raleigh Top," Tennessee
is headed to the round of 16.
http://www.cheaphurricanesjerseys.com/ . The Swiss won on the fastest run-time tiebreaker after the four-racer teams
tied 2-2. Wendy Holdener and Reto Schmidiger won their final heats against Julia
Mancuso and Tim Jitloff, respectively.Imagine a playoff that includes Arizona
facing TCU in one semifinal and Mississippi State meeting Georgia Tech in the
other. Is it a long shot? Sure. But its not quite as far-fetched as it may have
seemed before this season of surprises began. No. 3 Mississippi State, No. 9
TCU, No. 10 Arizona and No. 22 Georgia Tech are all unbeaten after starting the
season unranked. The list of undefeated teams that opened the season outside the
Top 25 also includes Marshall, which remains unranked despite winning its first
five games by an average margin of 31.8 points. Its way too early, but I thought
before the season when everybody started lining teams up for the four-team
playoff, I said, you know, theres so much that can happen in the regular season
in college football, Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez said. All the polls are nice
for the fans, but theyre going to be presumptuous. Lets wait and see what
happens because I think the Power 5 conferences have so much more parity than
theyve ever had that theres so much more thats still going to happen over these
next six or seven weeks. Heres a look at these five unbeaten teams that started
the season unranked. -- ARIZONA (5-0, 2-0 Pac-12) How they got here: Arizona is
5-0 for the first time since 1998 with a young offensive backfield featuring
redshirt freshman quarterback Anu Solomon and true freshman running back Nick
Wilson. Linebacker Scooby Wright leads a defence that has eight sacks over its
last two games. In its last two games, Arizona edged California 49-45 on a Hail
Mary and pulled off a 31-24 stunner at No. 12 Oregon, which was ranked second at
the time. Potential roadblocks: Arizona has a tough home test with Southern
California on Saturday and has three more games with ranked teams: Nov. 1 at No.
18 UCLA, Nov. 22 at No. 24 Utah and Nov. 28 at home against No. 20 Arizona
State. If the Wildcats stay unbeaten through the regular season, theyd still
have to survive the Pac-12 championship game. -- GEORGIA TECH (5-0, 2-0 ACC) How
they got here: The Yellow Jackets have found an ideal quarterback for Paul
Johnsons triple-option attack in Justin Thomas, who has rushed for 470 yards
while also throwing seven touchdown passes with only one interception. Georgia
Tech beat Georgia Southern 42-38 on a touchdown with 23 seconds left and erased
a 10-point deficit in a 27-24 triumph over Virginia Tech. Id say theyre
resilient, Johnson said. Nothing much seems to affect them. We get behind and
nothing changes. They dont panic. Potential roadblocks: Georgia Tech hosts
defending ACC Coastal Division champion Duke on Satuurday and closes the regular
season with a Nov.

Teuvo Teravainen Jersey. 15 home game against Clemson and a Nov. 29 trip
to No. 13 Georgia. The Yellow Jackets avoid No. 1 Florida State in the regular
season but could face the Seminoles in the ACC championship game if both get
that far. -- MARSHALL (5-0, 1-0 Conference USA) How they got here: Marshalls the
one team on the list that isnt really a surprise. Before the season, Marshall
was touted as a team that could go unbeaten thanks to star quarterback Rakeem
Cato and a tissue-soft schedule. Cato directs an offence that leads all FBS
teams with 595.6 yards per game. Cato has done a tremendous job, Marshall coach
Doc Holliday said. He is extremely unselfish and could care less about his
stats. What he cares about is winning the football game. Potential roadblocks:
Marshall has a potentially tricky home game Saturday with Middle Tennessee,
which beat the Thundering Herd 51-49 last season. The only other remaining
opponent that currently owns a winning record is UAB, which hosts the Herd on
Nov. 22. Marshall also could end up in the Conference USA championship game. --
MISSISSIPPI STATE (5-0, 2-0 SEC) How they got here: Quarterback Dak Prescott has
emerged as a Heisman Trophy candidate while leading Mississippi State to its
highest ranking ever. The Bulldogs have gained at least 500 yards in each of
their games this season, though their brutal schedule gives them little time to
celebrate. The difference between a pat on the back and a kick in the rear end
is about six inches, Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen said. We have to make
sure we keep in the high-end of those six inches right there because if not, it
will turn to the second. Potential roadblocks: Mississippi State hosts No. 2
Auburn on Saturday. The Bulldogs also have two upcoming road games against Top
25 teams: Nov. 15 at No. 7 Alabama and Nov. 29 at No. 3 Ole Miss. If the
Bulldogs get through that grind unscathed, theyd still need to play the SEC
championship game. -- TCU (4-0, 1-0 Big 12) How they got here: The Horned Frogs
already have matched their win total from last season, when they finished 4-8.
TCUs offence is averaging 516.2 yards per game, 171.4 more than last season.
That represents the best statistical improvement of any FBS offence this season.
We are good enough to win the Big 12, TCU linebacker Paul Dawson said after a
37-33 victory over No. 11 Oklahoma, which was ranked fourth at the time.
Potential roadblocks: TCU visits No. 5 Baylor on Saturday and hosts No. 16
Oklahoma State on Oct. 18 and No. 17 Kansas State on Nov. 8.
