FLORHAM PARK, N.
O. J. Howard
Womens Jersey .J. - Darrelle Revis has been back before, as an opposing
player taking on the New York Jets.Not this way, though. This time around, hes
an enemy.Hes a member of the playoff-bound New England Patriots now, and walking
into MetLife Stadium on Sunday with the Jets AFC East rivals likely wont be the
same experience hes used to.You know what, I dont really know, Revis said during
a conference call Wednesday. Ill probably just approach it like I did when I
played with Tampa last year, just treat it like another game.But the star
cornerback is hardly just another big-name player making his way back to the
town where he began his NFL career, as he was in the opening game of last season
with the Buccaneers.Revis was once considered to be on his way to becoming one
of the Jets greatest players, a shutdown cornerback who was the face of Rex
Ryans defence that helped the franchise to consecutive AFC title game appearance
in 2009 and 2010.The contract-related issues that marked his six seasons with
the Jets came to a head when new general manager John Idzik traded him to Tampa
Bay before last season.Revis, who bounced back from a severe knee injury, was on
the move again a few months later when the Buccaneers tried to trade him last
winter because of his huge salary scheduled for this season, but then released
him.He was a free agent and chose Bill Belichick and the Patriots, a team he had
learned to despise while in New York.Meanwhile, the Jets were never truly in the
mix for the cornerback — a sore spot in New Yorks 3-11 season. Its a predicament
that could cost Ryan his job, among others.They have a lot on their plate over
there in that situation this year, Revis said. Its kind of sad for the position
that Rex is in right now, but at the same time (the record is) something that
theyve got to change.Revis was then asked whether he thought he could have
helped if he were in New York.Im over here, he said. That ship has sailed. I
missed that boat. I caught the New England Patriots boat.Having Revis in his
secondary allowed Ryan to run his ideal scheme that uses a cornerback who locks
down opponents best receivers. And that aspect has been sorely missed by Ryan
and the defence, especially this season.Revis? a smiling Ryan said when asked
about not having the cornerback. Ah, no. You know.Ryan did his best to tout the
players on his current roster, but it has been clear that removing Revis from
his defence has taken a toll.Consider this: The Jets starting cornerbacks last
week at Tennessee were Marcus Williams and Phillip Adams, neither of whom was on
the roster in training camp.Guys, I think weve addressed all of this before,
Ryan said. You go back to our notes from the first time we played New England
(in October) or even when Revis was in Tampa. You make decisions based on
things. A lot of them work out, and some maybe dont work out as well as others.
But I dont think its fair to sit back and say this or that.Revis still talks to
some of his former Jets teammates, and hes aware of whats going on with the
franchise he called home since being a first-round pick in the 2007 draft.Im
really not trying to pay attention to that, Im really not, Revis said. Me and
Rex have a lot of history and we all know that. Some of those guys are dear to
my heart and everything, but like I said, Ive got to focus on the things that I
am doing here and I wish Rex the best.Revis is playing at a Pro Bowl-level
again, with 45 tackles, two interceptions and 14 passes defenced in the Patriots
mixture of man-to-man and zone coverages.Oh, hes had a great season, Ryan said.
Hes playing well. Theres no question about that.Revis future, though, is
uncertain with the Patriots. He has a two-year contract with New England, but is
scheduled to count $25 million against the teams salary cap next season. That
means theres a strong possibility Revis could be available again if the Jets —
with or without Ryan — want to bring him back home.Right now, my focus is
playing against the Jets, Revis said. Im not really thinking about the
off-season right now. Im thinking about focusing on the next game and the rest
of the season.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL

Lane Bowl.HOUSTON -- Houston rookie George Springer has had a month to remember.
And hes not about to let up. Springer hit a tiebreaking two-run homer in the
seventh inning, and the Astros extended their winning streak to six with a 3-1
victory over the Baltimore Orioles. Springers shot to left off Preston Guilmet
(0-1) extended the rookies hitting streak to 11 games and was his seventh homer
in his last seven games. The shot barely got over the left field wall. "I was
screaming at it," Springer said. "I was saying Go, go, go and it went. So thank
you, baseball." Springers 10 home runs in May extended his Astros rookie record
and tied him for the third most long balls by a rookie in May with Jose Canseco,
Wally Joyner and Walt Dropo. Mark McGwire set the rookie record for home runs in
May with 15 in 1987. "What a guy," Houston manager Bo Porter said of Springer.
"Its been pretty impressive. Its fun to watch. Its almost must-see TV." Springer
said he was happy to help the Astros continue winning and gave a lot of credit
to the man hitting before him in the lineup, Jose Altuve, who had three hits.
"The guy thats on base, and its always Jose Altuve," Springer said of his late
game poise. "Hes always on base, and with him on base, I understand that hes a
threat. With him on base, if they miss, I have to hit it." Springer became the
first Astros rookie to hit seven home runs in seven games and first Houston
player to do it since Morgan Ensberg in 2006. Ensberg, however, hit his seven
home runs over a six-game span. "Hes an exciting player," Porter said. "At any
moment, he can change the game with one swing. It doesnt matter if hes 0 for 3
or 3 for 3, he has the ability to impact the game every time he steps into the
batters box." Brad Peacock allowed a run on six hits with eight strikeouts in
six innings. Peacock, who was scratched prior to his scheduled start May 24 at
Seattle with forearm soreness, went six innings for the fifth straight start.
Porter said it was the best Peacock had pitched all season. Peacock said it was
the best he had felt all year, and he was able to locate his pitches. "I went
out there, I wasnt scared," Peacock said. "I threw my fastball, the team came up
with some big plays. Springer got the homer and the team got the win. Thats all
you can ask for." Josh Fiellds (1-3) threw two scoreless innings for the win,
and Chad Qualls pitched the ninth for his fourth save.

Womens Jersey. Ubaldo Jimenez allowed one run on three hits with eight
strikeouts in six innings. Jimenez had struggled in his last two outings,
allowing 10 runs in nine innings. "I was able to get a little bit deeper in the
game and thats always good," Jimenez said. "Hopefully I get deeper than that in
my next game. I felt good. I was able to be there for the team." Houston could
not take capitalize with runners in scoring position, going 0 for 11 against
Jimenez and finishing 1 for 15 with runners in scoring position with the lone
hit being Springers home run. Nelson Cruz remained hot, extending his hit streak
to 10 games with two hits, including an RBI single in the fourth that tied it at
1. The Orioles losing streak reached three games. "Its not always going to click
together," Baltimore manager Buck Showalter said of the Orioles inconsistency of
late. "Youre hoping one part of the game is good enough to offset another and we
have for the most part. I have a lot of confidence that our best baseball is
ahead of us. Tonight we just didnt swing the bats well enough Ubaldo deserved a
better fate." Jason Castro scored from third on a wild pitch by Jimenez in the
second on a close play at the plate to make it 1-0. After a 4 minute, 25 second
review, the call was upheld -- Castro was safe. Jimenez, who had loaded the
bases with one out on two walks and a single before Castro scored, escaped the
inning by inducing groundouts to Robbie Grossman and Jonathan Villar. NOTES:
Baltimore right-hander Tommy Hunter, on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to
May 21 with a left groin strain, has been throwing on flat ground for four days
and feels good, Showalter said. ... Orioles catcher Matt Wieters, on the 15-day
DL since May 11 with a right elbow strain, is expected to start doing light
tossing Friday, Showalter said. ... Houston will send lefty Brett Oberholtzer to
the mound Friday against Baltimore right-hander Miguel Gonzalez in the annual
Major League Baseball Civil Rights Game. There was a roundtable discussion
Thursday and there will be a Beacon Awards Luncheon Friday. The Astros will wear
the uniform of the Houston Eagles and the Orioles will wear the uniform of the
Baltimore Elite Giants of the Negro Leagues for the game.
