SAN DIEGO -- Edwin Jackson processed the message, then put it into effect.Jackson struck out 11 in seven scoreless innings to outpitch former Padres ace Drew Pomeranz, leading San Diego over the Boston Red Sox 2-1 Monday.Jackson (4-5) gave up four hits and ended his three-start losing streak.We kind of talked in between starts and we felt he just wasnt finishing up front with a ton of conviction, Padres manager Andy Green said. From the first pitch today you can see him finishing aggressively.That made sense to Jackson.I had to come out today and force the issue against a great-hitting team, he said. They can put a lot of points on the board. You just have to have belief in what you do.Adam Rosales hit a two-run homer off Pomeranz.It helped seeing him as a teammate, Rosales said. I learned you have to lay off the curve and the cutter.Said Pomeranz: I was having trouble locating my pitches and he took advantage of one.Pomeranz (2-4 for Boston) was an All-Star for the Padres this season and 8-7 in the NL before being traded to the Red Sox in mid-July.I think Drew gave us what we kind of anticipated, (105) pitches and six quality innings of work, Red Sox manager John Farrell said.Brandon Maurer worked the ninth for his eighth save in 13 chances. He gave up a one-out single to Hanley Ramirez, then struck out Jackie Bradley Jr. and got pinch hitter David Ortiz on a flyball.Rosales hit his career-high ninth homer of the season in the fourth, and the San Diego pitchers made it stand up.One pitch, its a different game, Rosales said. But I didnt think it was going out.Pomeranz gave up two runs and six hits in 5 2/3 innings. He struck out five with a walk.Chris Youngs pinch-hit homer off reliever Brad Hand to open the eighth cut the Padres lead to 2-1.Aaron Hill followed with a pinch-hit double but was stranded at third when Hand struck out Brock Holt and Xander Bogaerts.We got a couple of opportunities with really good hitters at the plate, Farrell said. But unfortunately we didnt execute to tie the game up.Hanley Ramirez had three hits for Boston.Bostons best chance against Jackson came in the seventh. But with two on and none out, he got Bradley to ground into a double play and fanned Yoan Moncada on a full-count offspeed pitch.(Catcher) Derek (Norris) and myself were able to get in a great groove, Jackson said. Today was one of those games.TRAINERS ROOMRed Sox: RHP Koji Uehara (strained pectoral muscle) was activated off the disabled list. He will be available on Tuesday, Farrell said.Padres: CF Jon Jay (right forearm) will be added to the roster on Tuesday after playing in three minor league games. Jay missed 66 games.UP NEXTRed Sox: RHP Clay Buchholz (5-10, 5.20) gets the nod for the middle game of the three-game series. In his last three starts, he is 1-0 and has allowed just one run in two of them.Padres: RHP Paul Clemens (2-4, 4.93) has set a career high with nine starts but his last one was rocky when he lasted by three innings, charged with two runs and four hits.Cheap Fake NMD . Still, Brewers manager Ron Roenicke thought taking him out before the fifth inning was an unusual move.

Fake NMD For Sale . -- Catcher Brett Hayes has agreed to a $630,000, one-year contract with the Kansas City Royals, avoiding salary arbitration. http://www.cheapnmdonline.com/adidas-nmd-mens-clearance.html .ca looks back at the stories and moments that made the year memorable. Adidas NMD Pharrell Williams Human Race Yellow . The Vancouver coach and an announced sellout crowd of 18,910 watched in dismay as the Canucks lost 7-4 to the New York Islanders on Monday night by squandering a 3-0 lead in the third period. Adidas NMD Human Race Cheap . Carey Price didnt, but he still came out on top against one of his rivals for the No. 1 job at the Sochi Games. The Anahim Lake, B.C., native was stellar in making 39 saves in his home province and Lars Eller got credit for a bizarre short-handed winner as the Canadiens defeated the Canucks 4-1.Three Big 12 teams were still undefeated going into November last season and four other teams got into conference play before suffering their first losses.Only two weeks into this season, the Big 12 has just three teams without a loss. And those arent even the top teams in the leagues preseason media poll.Among the early losses are 14th-ranked Oklahomas opener against the sixth-ranked Cougars in Houston, the Oklahoma State officiating debacle against Central Michigan and TCUs double-overtime loss at home when Arkansas was the first SEC team to visit Fort Worth since 2003.Still undefeated are No. 11 Texas, surprisingly the leagues highest-ranked team, West Virginia and No. 21 Baylor.Outside of the Longhorns double-overtime win over Notre Dame, and West Virginias opener against Missouri, the Big 12 has four losses against teams from other Power Five leagues (ACC, Big Ten, Pac-12 and SEC). The Big 12 is the only one of those with a losing record in such games.It has everything to do with the nature of who were playing, West Virginia coach Dana Holgorsen said. The schedules are changing. Nobody is just playing three cupcakes -- well, there are a few that are -- but pretty much everybodys playing challenging games now.A look at each of the Big 12 teams going into Week 3 of the season:THE UNDEFEATED- No. 11 Texas (2-0): After that impressive win over Notre Dame and an easy victory over UTEP, true freshman quarterback Shane Buechele and the Longhorns hit the road for the first time Saturday and visit the Golden Bears. California won 45-44 last year in Austin after Texas made a big comeback only to miss an extra point.- West Virginia (2-0): Skyler Howard gets some time for his strained ribs to mend after the senior quarterback matched a career high with five TD passes against Youngstown State. WVU has an open date before its final non-conference game Sept. 24 against BYU in the home stadium of the NFLs Washington Redskins.- No. 21 Baylor (2-0): The Bears, the only Big 12 team other than Kansas not playing a non-conference game against a Power Five opponent, wont get challenged until its league opener Sept. 24 against Oklahoma State. Baylor iss favored by more than four touchdowns at Rice (0-2) on Friday night.ddddddddddddVEN AT 1-1:- No. 14 Oklahoma: The first Big 12 team to make it into the College Football Playoff, the Sooners really cant afford another loss to have a realistic chance of making it back. A win at home Saturday against third-ranked Ohio State , in the poll spot where Oklahoma started the season, would certainly have Bob Stoops team prominent again in the playoff conversation.- TCU: Quarterback Kenny Hill started slow in both his starts before finishing strong, but the 21-point rally to go ahead late in regulation against Arkansas was undone by a penalty and a tying score by the Hogs. The Horned Frogs play the first game that counts in the Big 12 standings, hosting Iowa State.- Oklahoma State: While the referees made a mistake that allowed Central Michigan an extra play that turned into the game-winning TD, coach Mike Gundy isnt blaming that for the Cowboys not being 2-0. Basically if we would have played better ... the last minute of the game would have been a non-factor, Gundy said. Now they have their only non-conference Power Five opponent, hosting Pittsburgh on Saturday.- Texas Tech: With quarterback Patrick Mahomes leading the nation in total offense (562 yards per game) and accounting for 12 touchdowns, the Red Raiders can score a lot of points. The problem is they give up a lot. Texas Techs 68-55 loss at Arizona State was the third loss in its last 12 games when scoring at least 53 points.- Kansas: The Jayhawks snapped a 15-game losing skid with their season-opening victory over FCS team Rhode Island, but then lost to Ohio.STILL WINLESS- Kansas State (0-1): Coach Bill Snyders team had a week off after the opening loss at No. 7 Stanford, but now has consecutive home games against Florida Atlantic and FCS team Missouri State.- Iowa State (0-2): A tough start for new coach Matt Campbell, with a loss to FCS team Northern Iowa before a 42-3 loss at No. 13 Iowa.---Online: AP College Football website www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
