ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- Drew Smyly is putting a nice run together after struggling for two months.Smyly allowed just a solo homer over seven innings of one-hit ball, Logan Forsythe and Kevin Kiermaier each homered and the Tampa Bay Rays beat the San Diego Padres 8-2 on Monday night.Drew, he was outstanding, to say the least, Tampa Bay manager Kevin Cash said.Alexei Ramirez hit his fifth homer and Derek Norris walked twice, and those were the only baserunners against Smyly (5-11). The left-hander struck out four during his fifth straight start with six or more innings and two or fewer runs.Before the recent surge, Smyly went 0-7 with a 7.60 ERA in 10 starts from May 21-July 18.This game is full of streaks, Smyly said. Youve just got to ride out the good streaks and try and eliminate the bad ones.Brad Boxberger and Kevin Jepsen completed a three-hitter, with Jepsen allowing a single to Wil Myers and a homer to Yangervis Solarte in the ninth.Forsythe hit his fifth homer in his last 13 games off Luis Perdomo (5-7) to put the Rays up 3-1 in the second.Kiermaier had a three-run drive in a five-run eighth that made it 8-1. He had three hits and two stolen bases.Logan Morrison had an RBI double and Forsythe added a sacrifice fly during the eighth.Perdomo allowed three runs and five hits in 5 2/3 innings. He hit two batters during the first, including Morrison with the bases loaded.He made some real nice adjustments, but for us offensively we dug too much of a hole, swung up in the zone a lot, Padres manager Andy Green said. We just didnt have very many good at-bats against Smyly.Myers went 1 for 4 in his first game at Tropicana Field since being dealt by Tampa Bay to the Padres as part of a three-team, 11-player deal in Dec. 2014.Myers was the AL Rookie of the Year in 2013 while with the Rays.TRAINERS ROOMPadres: RHP Tyson Ross (right shoulder inflammation) will throw batting practice Tuesday.Rays: RHPs Alex Cobb (Triple-A Durham) and Chase Whitley (Class A Charlotte), both coming back from Tommy John surgery, will make their next rehab starts Tuesday.MOVING DAYPadres: INF Luis Sardinas was acquired from Seattle for cash considerations or a player to be named and optioned to Triple-A El Paso.

Sam Reinhart Jersey .Y. - General manager Billy King says the Brooklyn Nets are looking to add a big man and confirmed the team worked out centre Jason Collins, who would become the first openly gay active NBA player if signed.Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal hailed Marcus Rashford as a real striker after his derby winner against Manchester City on Sunday. The 18-year-old scored the only goal of the game in the 16th minute, coolly finishing after skipping away from Martin Demichelis.The goal was Rashfords fifth since he was handed a starting role in the Europa League eight games ago. He is a real striker and thats why I let him stay in that position because he can make goals, Van Gaal told Sky Sports.But he is also an attacking point and runs the channels. I like him very much. But he is 18 years old so we have to wait and see how consistent he is. Marcus Rashford celebrates his opening goal Asked in his post-match press conference whether Rashford could earn a call-up for England in the near future, Van Gaal said: I dont want to interfere. We dont have to exaggerate either. He is young, he is good, otherwise I question why I let him stay in the team.The win comes just a few days after Uniteds Europa League participation ended with a 3-1 aggregate defeat to Liverpool.But while Jurgen Klopps side followed up the result with a 3-2 defeat to Southampton, having led 2-0 at half-time, United managed to recover from the setback and earn three potentially vital league points.I am very happy, said Van Gaal. We played a very good first half. In the second half we had the chances to score the second, but then we fought to the end to survive because a lot of players had cramp. Sky Sports pundit Graeme Souness said Louis van Gaal deserves credit after sticking with his young side against Man City Thats logical, I think, when you play on Thursday.dddddddddddd. You have seen what Liverpool did; in the first half they scored two at Southampton and in the second half it was 3-2.Thats only because they were not recovered. Otherwise you cant lose 3-2.I think [Uniteds performance] was fantastic. We have done it also against Arsenal after playing on Thursday and we have beaten also Manchester City, so I am very happy because its not easy to win here.The victory sees United move just a point behind City with eight games of the season remaining.It was fantastic to see the dressing room and we will fight every match, of course, said Van Gaal. Now we have a big result. It was a long time ago that Manchester United won here, so for the fans it is again fantastic that we have won.
