Jawill Davis Jersey .Colorado (7-3) missed 11
of its final 12 shot attempts of the game. The Buffaloes led 62-61 with 7:50
left, but BYU (7-3) seized control with a 12-1 run and held on for its second
win in as many games.I really felt like tonight was one of the best all-around
performances of this group, Cougars coach Dave Rose said. Every guy didnt have a
great game as far as numbers were concerned, but every guy that played gave
supreme effort.The Buffs trailed for most of the game, but led 58-55 after a
jumper from Wesley Gordon with 9:43 left in the game. But BYU freshman Steven
Beo, making just his seventh career appearance, drained a 3-pointer from the
right corner on the Cougars next possession to tie the game. After Thomas
Akyazili hit a 3-pointer for Colorado, the Buffs didnt hit another shot for more
than eight minutes as BYU pulled away.The Buffaloes went 9 for 29 from the field
in the second half, including 3 for 13 from 3-point range.We turned the ball
over and we didnt get good movement -- we were standing around a lot, said
Colorados Derrick White, who led the Buffaloes with 21 points.The Cougars
outrebounded the Buffaloes 46-31, including a 14-7 advantage on the offensive
glass.Weve all just got to rebound collectively, said Colorado junior George
King, who had 14 points and a team-high 12 rebounds. What do we say at Colorado?
Defend and rebound. We didnt do a good job defending in the second half and we
got beat on the boards.BYU was 9 for 19 from 3-point range, including a 4-for-5
effort by Haws.Yoeli Childs had 11 points and 12 rebounds for the Cougars.
Xavier Johnson had 17 points for the Buffaloes.BIG PICTUREColorado: The Buffs
lost a true road game for the first time this season, thanks in large part to a
stretch of more than eight minutes late in the second half during which Colorado
failed to hit a field goal.BYU: The Cougars won back-to-back games for the first
time since Nov. 19-21, when BYU defeated Coastal Carolina and Saint Louis to cap
a four-game, season-opening winning streak.UNDER THE WEATHERMika went just 3 for
11 from the field, but was 11 for 13 from the foul line, snagged seven rebounds,
dished out six assists and blocked three shots despite battling through an
illness. The performance came on the heels of a 26-point outing Wednesday
against Weber State. Erics had a tough week, Rose said. He played Wednesday
night and then he played again (Saturday). The days in between ... hes had a
tough week.A LONG TIME COMINGThe Cougars win was their first over Colorado since
Dec. 17, 1955, and just their seventh in 24 meetings with the Buffaloes.
However, Saturdays game was just the second meeting between the schools since
1955, with the Buffaloes winning 92-83 last season in Boulder.UP NEXTColorado

Juventus says Pirlo underwent tests on Monday which revealed he has "a
second-degree lesion to the collateral medial ligament in his right knee. SAN
FRANCISCO -- Jeff Samardzija had a simple game plan against the Atlanta Braves
that helped him earn a much-needed win and moved the
slumping-but-still-surviving San Francisco Giants closer to first place in the
NL West.Just made them hit it to (shortstop Brandon) Crawford mostly, Samardzija
said, referring to his Gold Glove teammate.The plan couldnt have worked out much
better for Samardzija or the Giants.Sparked by a handful of defensive gems by
Crawford, Samardzija and two relievers combined on a seven-hitter, and San
Francisco beat Atlanta 7-0 on Friday night.Samardzija (11-9) had an uneven
outing and had to pitch out of two early jams to win for only the fourth time
since May 30. He got plenty of help from Crawford, who threw out a runner at
third in the first inning, snared a liner to end the second with the bases
loaded then made a nifty bare-handed grab to throw out Dansby Swanson to end the
sixth.I like getting groundballs so Im glad that (Samardzija) feels confident in
me to make those plays for him, Crawford said.Samardzija allowed seven hits,
walked three and struck out six. He also doubled and scored in the
fourth.Atlanta failed to score in the first after putting runners at second and
third with one out. The Braves also came up empty after the first three batters
reached base in the second, then ran themselves out of another opportunity in
the fourth when Jace Peterson was called out after getting hit by the ball on
pitcher Joel De La Cruzs single.Rocky start but he did a great job of getting
out of those jams, Giants manager Bruce Bochy said of Samardzija. He just kept
his concentration and his poise. Saved the game probably at that point for
us.Angel Pagan homered while Brandon Belt, Denard Span and Buster Posey added
two hits apiece for the Giants. San Francisco scored six runs on two-out hits
and benefited from three Atlanta errors.Freddie Freeman had two hits for
Atlanta, one day after taking a hard fall while flipping over a railing chasing
a foul ball.Hunter Strickland and Cory Gearrin retired three battters apiece for
San Francisco.
Tyler Lancaster Jersey. The Giants benefited
from the Braves shaky defense to give Samardzija an early cushion.San Francisco
had four consecutive two-out hits off De La Cruz (0-7) in the first inning
following a throwing error by Atlanta shortstop Swanson.We go up early and its a
whole different game, really, Braves interim manager Brian Snitker said. We just
couldnt score and it looked like (Samardzija) got locked in pretty good.San
Francisco went up 5-0 in the second on Pagans ninth home run, three batters
after Gorkys Hernandez reached on second baseman Petersons fielding error.Belt,
who had an RBI single and scored in the first inning, doubled in Posey in the
fifth.The Braves couldnt keep up.NO HELP FOR THE PITCHERDe La Cruz remained
winless after allowing seven runs in four innings but he cant shoulder all the
blame for his record. The Braves have failed to score in five of the eight games
started by the right-hander and he is receiving just 1.3 runs of support per
start. I thought he threw the ball OK but (your teammates) make some miscues and
you need to get the next guy out and he wasnt able to do that, Snitker said. It
wasnt real good, really.TRAINERS ROOMBraves: Freeman showed no lingering effects
after hurting his back during Thursdays game in Arizona. Freeman doubled in the
first inning and reached on an infield single in the fifth.Giants: Outfielder
Hunter Pence was held out after straining his right hamstring a day earlier.
Pence is hopeful of returning to the lineup Saturday.UP NEXTBraves: RHP Mike
Foltynewicz (6-5) faces the Giants for the second time this season Saturday
night. Foltynewicz, who beat San Francisco on May 30, is winless in his last two
starts overall.Giants: RHP Jake Peavy (5-9) returns to the rotation for the
first time since being demoted to the bullpen following the trade for Matt Moore
on Aug. 1. Peavy last started on May 30 against Washington.
