BOSTON - The Red Sox worked out at Fenway Park on Monday afternoon, a little more than 48 hours before the scheduled start of the World Series. The St. Louis Cardinals were scheduled to arrive in Boston in time for a workout on Tuesday afternoon. Much of Mondays discussion focused on Bostons lineup considerations as the series progresses, specifically when the venue shifts to St. Louis Busch Stadium and games are played under National League rules. GAME 1 STARTERS CONFIRMED To no ones surprise, Red Sox manager John Farrell selected ace left-hander Jon Lester as his Game 1 starter. In three playoff starts this year, one against Tampa Bay and two versus Detroit, Lester is 2-1 with a 2.33 ERA, 1.189 WHIP and two home runs allowed in 19 1/3 innings. The Cardinals, who will have had four full days of rest by the time Wednesday night rolls around, will turn to ace right-hander Adam Wainwright to open the series. In three playoff starts, two versus Pittsburgh and one against Los Angeles, Wainwright is 2-1 with a 1.57 ERA, 0.783 WHIP, and one home run allowed in 23 innings. RED SOX LINEUP DECISIONS AND PROBLEMS Its the challenge each American League representative faces when it reaches the World Series. With the elimination of the designated hitter in the National League ballpark, how do you best allot playing time when the pitcher has to take a spot in the batting lineup? The choice comes down to David Ortiz vs. Mike Napoli. Farrell would only commit to his Game 3 decision, which will be to play Ortiz at first base and have Napoli come off the bench. Red Sox pitcher Jake Peavy says the loss of either bat from the starting lineup will hurt. "When we play in St. Louis I certainly think were at a disadvantage," said Peavy. "When youre looking at having to not have a Napoli or David Ortiz in your lineup its certainly not fun for us with the style of baseball were used to playing. At the same time, well have one of those hired guns on the bench ready for a big moment." Is it time for the designated hitter to be implemented in the National League, thereby evening the playing field? "Im not for that," said Peavy, who began his career with the Padres, for whom he had a number of successful seasons. "Im for the pitcher hitting in both leagues. I love the National League style of game." It seems, at the moment, that right-hand hitting Jonny Gomes will get the Game 1 start in left field, relegating Daniel Nava to the bench. Xander Bogaerts will start at third base over Will Middlebrooks. "Cant go away from maybe a little bit of momentum that a certain lineup has provided for us," said Farrell. "Daniel Nava is certainly not forgotten, nor is any guy. As we talked about with Xander taking over for Will and Ill just let you know, very similar conversation with both guys, both with Daniel and Will, is that its going to take contributions from every guy on this team to get to where we want to go. That may be in a little bit different role than youve been accustomed to in the regular season." Keith Yandle Jersey. Rooney broke the deadlock when he fired home a penalty in the 64th minute, only for captain Nemanja Vidic to be sent off for a dangerous challenge on Gabriel Giurgiu two minutes later. Rooney secured Uniteds first victory in Group C with another penalty in injury time. Chris Kunitz Penguins Jersey. Chris Heisey followed with a two-run triple and Billy Hamilton added an RBI double, all but sealing Cincinnatis fourth straight victory and seventh in eight games. Brandon Phillips, celebrating his 33rd birthday, hit a go-ahead homer in the ninth for the Reds before pinch-hitter Buster Posey tied it with an RBI double off hard-throwing closer Aroldis Chapman in the bottom half. http://www.hockeyauthorityshop.com/new-york-rangers-dan-girardi-jersey/. 5 deadline, it wont be by his request.

With Sergei Nemchinov, Alexei Gusarov and goaltender Evgeny Belosheikin anchoring the back-end, the Russian forwards were able to freewheel on the attack and poured in 50 goals. Alexander Tchernikh led the Russians in scoring with seven goals and 14 points. Nikolai Borschevsky and Igor Viazimikin scored six goals each. After beating the Czechs 6-4 and tying Canada 3-3, the Soviets wrapped up the gold medal with an 8-2 thumping of the host Swedes. The decisive win actually turned out to be a 3-1 nail-biter against surprising Finland. It turned out to be the only loss of the tournament for the Finns, who settled for the silver medal. Raimo Helminen led the tournament with 11 goals and a record 22 points, while future NHLer Esa Tikkanen chipped in eight goals. The Czechs won the bronze medal through a high-scoring attack that featured eight players with at least three goals and totalled 51 for the tournament. Petr Rosol had 10, while future NHLer Petr Klima had six. Canada opened the tournament with a 4-2 loss to the Finns and never really recovered. Russ Courtnall and John MacLean showed their stuff with seven goals each, but the Canadians just couldnt get it together against the stronger teams and finished fourth. Mario Lemieux might have provided the star power Canada seemed to lack, but he opted not to participate in the tournament.
