RIO DE JANEIRO -- The sprint canoe/kayak team are hoping the blooding of Olympic debutants Riley Fitzsimmons and Jordan Wood will see Australia return to gold medal-winning ways after a disappointing return in Rio.The 13-strong team arrived in Brazil feeling they were in the hunt for three medals, including defending the gold medal they won in the mens K4 1000m in London.But that crew finished in fourth position, with the only medal coming in the mens K2 1000m through Lachlan Tame and veteran Ken Wallace, who now has three Olympic medals to his name.Team leader Richard Fox said they had hoped for more from the key boats, who race over the one kilometre distance.Overall the outcomes not as good as we wanted, Fox said.We got one bronze and two fourths so its not a complete disaster but its still measured as below par.Germany were convincing gold medallists in both the mens K2 and K4 1000m events which Fox said could be put down to the talent of Max Rendschmidt and Marcus Gross, who competed in both, as well as their strong program.He believed Olympic success was cyclical and with 20-year-old Fitzsimmons and Wood, 24, and the son of Olympic medallists Anna Wood and the late Steve Wood, it could be Australias turn again in Tokyo.The renewal that weve seen in the group is encouraging and thats going to inspire the next group to go forward and hopefully be back in Tokyo with a vengeance, Fox said.Their debut finishing in fourth place is nothing to be disappointed about really in the bigger picture.Fox said a review of the program would consider whether the Australians were focusing too much on world cup success at the expense of Olympic goals, and it would also look to improve the female representation after the womens K4 failed to qualify.We might need a longer build-up to a bigger peak as we havent lifted to a higher level here as a couple of others have, he said.Jared Spurgeon Jersey .2 billion agreement with Rogers Communications for the leagues broadcast and multimedia rights.

He was called up to start June 11 against the Marlins and allowed two runs on four hits in six innings, then was shifted to the bullpen for four appearances before being shipped back to Triple-A Reno.Godley is one of three rookies currently in the Diamondbacks rotation, and all are struggling through the same growing pains.It is sort of a theme for a lot of our guys right now, Arizona manager Chip Hale said. Their stuff is good. They are having some really impressive innings, but they have to give us six or seven of those.In his only career start against the Padres, Godley threw three scoreless innings on Sept. 27, 2015. Twelve days earlier, he gave up a run in 1 1/3 innings in his only other career appearance against San Diego.After dropping the series opener 8-3 to the Padres on Monday, the Diamondbacks have lost eight of their past nine at Chase Field -- matching their overall skid.We are just not playing winning baseball right now, Hale said. Thats what it boils down to.Friedrich (4-3, 3.96) began the yeaar well for the Padres, surrendering only eight earned runs in his first six starts.dddddddddddd However, over his past three outings, Friedrich has given up 14 earned runs on 20 hits over 16 innings with 12 strikeouts and eight walks.Padres manager Andy Green said Friedrich, much like the Diamondbacks young pitches, is finding his way as he pitches in and out of trouble.Hes not far off from being great, said Green, whose team has won three of four. Its a couple of pitches here and there and a couple of big innings that got away from him.San Diego is 5-4 in Friedrichs starts this season.I love the way hes wired, Green said. Hes going to pitch well. He just needs to come to the realization of whats not going well a little quicker.Friedrich pitched well in his lone career start against the Padres, on June 12 at Coors Field. He yielded one run, which was unearned, on two hits in six innings. He walked three and struck out nine in a no-decision.The Padres may be without catcher Derek Norris, who was struck near the left elbow on a Brandon Drury swing follow-through and left Mondays game. Postgame X-rays were taken, but the results were not immediately available.Padres third baseman Yangervis Solarte, who hit his third homer in four games at Chase Field this season, enters Tuesday batting .408 (20-for-49) in his last 14 games.Diamondbacks second baseman Jean Segura is riding an eight-game hitting streak and is batting .363 in his past 23 games with six doubles and seven RBI.
