CHICAGO -- Carlos Gomez broke a scoreless tie in the ninth inning with an RBI single and Jeff Bianchi added a two-run double to lift the Milwaukee Brewers over the Chicago Cubs 5-0 on Monday night. The Brewers, sitting in last place in the NL Central, won for the third time in eight games and ended the Cubs winning streak at three games. Brewers reliever Brandon Kintzler (3-0) pitched a scoreless eighth for the victory. Cubs reliever Pedro Strop (1-1) gave up the single to Gomez on an 0-2 pitch and Jean Segura easily scored from second to give the Brewers a 1-0 lead. With one out and the bases loaded, Bianchi gave the Brewers insurance with a double to right to score two more runs and Rickie Weeks also added a two-run double as Milwaukee batted around in the ninth. On a cool July night, the Cubs opened an eight-game homestand with a little different look. Left fielder Alfonso Soriano and pitcher Matt Garza were both traded while the Cubs were on a 10-game road trip as team president Theo Epstein continues the rebuilding process. In his Wrigley Field debut, left fielder Junior Lake was 2-for-4, breaking out of an 0-for-14 slump. Neither starter factored into the decision despite strong outings. Brewers starter Kyle Lohse pitched six innings. He pitched around five hits and three walks with six strikeouts. Lohse has only allowed one run in his last 19 innings. Cubs starter Jeff Samardzija pitched seven innings, allowing just three hits with two walks and seven strikeouts. Samardzija did not give up his first hit until two outs in the fifth on Caleb Gindls single. He quickly got out of the inning by striking out Juan Francisco looking. With runners on first and second with one out in the sixth, Samardzija knocked down Norichika Aokis comebacker with his bare hand to retire him at first. After being checked out by a team trainer and few practice pitches to see if he could continue, Samardzija struck out Segura looking to end the inning. Samardzija was 1-2 with a 6.85 ERA in his four previous July starts. NOTES: Before the game, the Cubs observed a moment of silence for former pitcher Frank Castillo. Castillo apparently drowned at a lake northeast of Phoenix on Sunday. Castillo had an 82-104 record in 13 major league seasons. He pitched for the Cubs, Colorado, Detroit, Toronto, Boston and Florida from 1991 to 2005 before retiring and lived in the Phoenix suburb of Scottsdale. He was 44. He was with the Cubs from 1991 to 1997. ... The Cubs and the Brewers are scheduled for a day-night doubleheader Tuesday. ... Segura was back in the lineup after missing Sundays game with forearm tightness. Wholesale Running Shoes Canada .

The Canadian squad, skipped by Jennifer Jones of Winnipeg, got on the board first with two in the second end, and followed that with two more apiece in the fourth and sixth ends. Sydney named Kurt Tippett and Gary Rohan in their preliminary side on Thursday night but the pair are no certainties to line up for the Swans against Geelong at the MCG.Coach John Longmire didnt bother with any subterfuge over co-captain Jarrad McVeighs fitness - hes out with a calf strain - but the other pair still carry lingering doubts.Tippett suffered a fractured jaw just two weeks ago and Rohans season looked over on Saturday night when he crumpled to the SCG turf against Adelaide with a knee injury.He cut a disconsolate figure as he was carted from the field and was on crutches after the game.Zak Jones was brought in to replace McVeigh, while Toby Nankervis made way for Tippett.But 2012 premiership player Nick Smith admitted Sydneys line-up could change again when final team sheets are submitted 90 minutes before the opening bounce on Friday night.Well give them every opportunity to play, Smith said just hours before teams were announced on Thursday night.I think (Rohans) reaction was probably exacerbated by what happened last time (when he suffered a serious injury).First and foremost its good that hes OK and second of all that hes a chance to play this week.Harry Cunningham, James Rose and Nankervis also travelled with the team should further changes be needed.Newly ccrowned AFL Rising Star Callum Mills injured his hamstring in the upset qualifying loss to Greater Western Sydney and was ruled out on Wednesday.ddddddddddddMcVeighs loss is a blow to the Swans, but Smith put a brave face on the veterans absence.Ins and outs this week ... it doesnt matter who plays for them and who plays for us, he said.In the end it comes down to our application on Friday night.The Cats brought Lachie Henderson back from a knee injury, as expected - Tom Ruggles made way - while Daniel Menzel was a surprise omission with a groin strain, with Jed Bews named as his replacement.Smith admitted he had studied Menzels game closely during the week in preparation for a defensive role on the dangerous forward.The Swans go into the clash having inflicted Geelongs only loss at Simonds Stadium this season - by 38 points - in round 16.Its a long time ago now and both sides have made a lot of changes, Smith said.We really respect Geelong as a footy club and theyll play some good footy on Friday night. There will be swings of momentum and we know we have to be up for the challenge.We know what works and weve got to bring that (against the Cats). ' ' '
