ck at the last second. Down a pair of runs in the seventh inning, Joc Pederson near

Zowies Bruce Gamerbee Hsiang took down his second premier event in a row with a victory at EGX 2016 in Birmingham, United Kingdom. The hottest player in Street Fighter V didnt drop a single set en route to another dominating tournament win in what could be the greatest run in the games short history.His Necalli play should be considered the finest in the world and the results were good enough to back it up.EGX was packed with some of the best players from every major region: North America, Europe and Asia. The notable contenders from North America included Red Bull Darryl SnakeEyez Lewis and Evil Geniuses Kenneth KBrad Bradley. Although there were few players that hailed from Asia, they were certainly world-class, with names like Gamerbee, Red Bull and Twitchs Daigo The Beast Umehara, Red Bulls Masato Bonchan Takahashi and Shinya Nuki Onuki.Naturally, the largest player base came from Europe and the best of the bunch were Ryan Prodigal Son Hart, BX3s Arman Phenom Hanjani, Red Bulls Olivier Luffy Hay, Meltdowns Nathan MisterCrimson Massol, Benjamin ProblemX Simon, Jean-Baptiste Will2Pac Wilfried and Marcus Packz Parker.A consolation shout out should be given to longtime fighting game veteran, Nuki. At one point, he was unstoppable in the losers bracket, undeterred with his stellar aggression and footsie game.sWell Traveler Sale .

Swell Water Bottle Cheap . -- Jimmy Walkers first PGA Tour trophy came with a special gift tucked inside.CLEVELAND -- Jon Lester is a study in contrasts. When the baseball leaves his left hand on its way to the plate, the Chicago Cubs ace is dominant, particularly in October.When it leaves his hand on the way to first base, however, all bets are off.A mental block. The yips. Whatever it is thats making Lester turn a routine pickoff throw into something far more problematic, he cant shake it.And on Tuesday night the man who first noticed the troubling signs and tried to shield it from view will try to exploit it when Lester starts Game 1 of the World Series against manager Terry Francona and the Cleveland Indians.The skipper could tell something was amiss while working with Lester near the end of Franconas tenure with the Boston Red Sox. They attempted to deal with it quietly.We did a lot of things to make sure that it didnt get out in the open, Francona said. I thought we actually did a really good job because it wasnt until I left there that people started to realize that.What used to be a well-protected secret is now on display for all of baseball to see.Lester once went 66 straight starts -- two full calendar years -- without even attempting a pickoff toss. The nadir came in 2015, when any baserunner became a threat to go regardless of pedigree.And why not? Opponents stole 44 bases in 55 attempts against Lester last year, easily the most against any pitcher in the majors.Lester grew tired of trying to explain something the inexplicable, particularly for a pitcher whose typically solid control only seems to improve in lockstep with the stakes -- hes 3-0 in three World Series starts with a sparkling 0.43 ERA.So Cubs manager Joe Maddon decided to take some of the onus on Lester this spring and instead make controlling the running game a collective effort.Everybodys got an assignment per pitch, what we want to do, Maddon said. What Jon does as good as anybody in major league baseball is throw the ball from the mound to the plate, thats it. I wanted Jon to focus on what he does well first.Lester worked on his slide step and mixed up his tempo. Catcher David Ross improved his throwwing, no small task at 39.dddddddddddd The results this season were manageable. Only 28 of 41 base stealers advanced 90 feet safely, and three of those came in Lesters meaningless final start.We dont want guys to take the extra base, Ross said. I dont want them to get on period.And thats the part of his job where Lester thrives. Hes 2-0 with a 0.86 ERA in three playoff starts this month (8-6 with a 2.50 ERA in his career) and hardly seems unnerved no matter what tactics opponents use in an attempt to rattle him.In Game 5 of the NLCS, the Dodgers Enrique Hernandez worked a walk leading off the first inning then faked a dash to second only to pull back at the last second. Down a pair of runs in the seventh inning, Joc Pederson nearly went full Usain Bolt, turning to face second base while lining up like a sprinter.Neither player went, ultimately. And each time Lester made it out of the frame unscathed. He also fielded his position cleanly when the Dodgers would try to lay down a bunt instead of swinging away. The way Cubs first baseman Anthony Rizzo figures it, maybe Lesters as much in the head of the opposition as they are in his.The Dodgers were trying to bunt and it didnt work out, Rizzo said. When you throw someone off their game plan and stick to your game plan, you have the upper hand.Expect the Indians to ramp up the pressure when given the opportunity. Clevelands 143 stolen bases led the American League, with Rajai Davis taking an AL-best 43 on his own. Davis studied plenty of tape on Lester ahead of Game 1. Asked if his eyes light up when facing a pitcher who cant throw over, and Davis smiled.Usually my feet light up, like `Mmmm, we gonna get a bag, Davis said. But the key is not actually getting a (stolen) base, its getting to first or getting to second because hes a tough pitcher. Thats the real key, getting on base and taking advantage of the opportunity if I have it.---AP Baseball Writer Ben Walker in New York contributed to this report. ' ' '
