CORNER BROOK, N. Schuhe Bestellen Günstig .L. - His tournament didnt start the way he wanted it to, but Winnipegs Braden Calvert made up for early disappointment the rest of the way.The defending champion and his rink from Manitoba scored a deuce in the 10th end on Sunday to defeat Saskatchewans Jacob Hersikorn 8-6 in the 2015 Canadian junior curling championships finals.After falling in his opening draw to Quebecs Felix Asselin in preliminary-round action, Calvert and his rink of third Kyle Kurz, second Lucas van den Bosch and lead Brendan Wilson, put together a 10-draw win streak to finish the competition with the gold medal.Im in a little bit of shock right now, said Calvert. Were just overwhelmed and super-excited about winning the national championship, and Im sure itll sink in a little bit more tomorrow.Manitoba never trailed, taking single points in the first two ends, one more in the third and a beautiful chap-and-lie deuce in the sixth to go up 5-2.It wasnt an easy shot, and definitely wasnt easy to look at from the hack, said Kurz of the sixth-end shot. You couldnt see the inside of it, and if its heavy at all, its hanging outside and were not getting our deuce. But I had full confidence in him making that shot— he makes those left, right and centre.Saskatchewan would bounce back with deuces in the seventh and ninth ends, sandwiched around a Manitoba single to tie the game.In the 10th, though, Hersikorns last-rock draw attempt came up short and Calvert didnt need to throw his final stone.I think being here once and doing it once definitely helped us focus on what we had to do and helped us handle the nerves a bit better, said Calvert. I thought we were a lot more comfortable this year.Calvert defeated Albertas Karsten Sturmay 7-3 on Friday to lock up a berth in the gold-medal game.Earlier today, Hersikorn threw a double-takeout with the last rock of the game in an 8-6 win over New Brunswick in the semifinals.The clutch shot put Saskatchewan in the final against Manitoba.(Hersikorns) made a lot of shots when we got in trouble. He clutched up and made those draws, hits, triples and doubles, just to make everything possible to get us where we are, said Saskatchewan third Cole Tenetuik.Sundays win marked Manitobas third straight Canadian juniors mens gold medal, after Calverts victory last year and Matt Dunstones win in 2013. Calvert and his rink will represent Canada at the upcoming world junior curling championships beginning Feb. 28 in Tallinn, Estonia.Note to readers: This is a corrected story.

NEW YORK -- Mets starter Dillon Gee called it the hottest game hes pitched in all year. And on a muggy afternoon at Citi Field, a boost from the bench was just what New York needed to cool off the Phillies. Anthony Recker snapped a sixth-inning tie with a three-run homer in a rare start, and the Mets held off Philadelphia 6-5 Sunday to avoid dropping into last place. "Anytime you get a chance to play, you just want to contribute," Recker said. "Weve got a few guys on the bench that havent been seeing a lot of time, so when we get our chance we really want to be able to do our part." Wilmer Flores had three hits and made two sparkling defensive plays at shortstop in the final two innings to help New York hang on. By taking two of three in the series, the Mets kept Philadelphia in the NL East cellar. Gee (6-6) pitched effectively into the seventh inning, and New York finished 13-6 against the Phillies this season. Domonic Brown homered and had a career-high four hits for Philadelphia, which had won seven of nine. He grounded out with a runner on to end it. Ryan Howard also went deep for the Phillies. Recker, a backup catcher who had not played since Aug. 19 in Oakland, lined the first pitch he saw from A.J. Burnett in the sixth into the left-field seats to give the Mets a 5-2 lead. The home run was only his third hit since the All-Star break. "Thats how you win games, period," New York manager Terry Collins said about the contributions from Recker and reserve outfielder Kirk Nieuwenhuis, among others. "It just makes a huge difference and it takes a lot of heat off the guys who every day get worn down. Once in a while fresh blood in the lineup can lift you up. Today it did." Burnett (7-15), who has struggled mightily this season against the team that drafted him, looked sharp early on but ended up allowing five runs and nine hits over six inconsistent innings. Gee dodged trouble all afternoon, stranding a runner at third three times against a club thats hit him hard most of his career. With the bases loaded in the fourth, Wil Nieves grounded into a double play started by Flores. Ben Revere was left at third when Jimmy Rollins struck out in the fifth. And in the sixth, Gee struck out Nieves with runners at the corners before Cody Asche flied out to deep right-centre. "Thats what Dillon Gee does. He hangs in there," Collins said. "He keeps you in the game." Brown drove Jeurys Familias third pittch just over the left-centre fence leading off the eighth to pull the Phillies to 5-4. Air Max 270 Schweiz. Mets rookie Dilson Herrera, who made his major league debut Friday night, added an important insurance run in the bottom half with his first career RBI, driving in Nieuwenhuis with a single. Philadelphia put its first two hitters on in the ninth before Herrera and Flores turned a tough double play against Howard. Grady Sizemore had an RBI single, then Jenrry Mejia retired Brown for his 21st save. Flores also helped Familia with a diving play on Reveres hard-hit grounder to end the eighth. Howard hit a solo shot in the sixth, reaching 20 home runs for the eighth time and first since 2011. He has seven career homers against Gee. COOL KEEPSAKE Herrera, who got his first major league hit Saturday night, said he plans to send the souvenir ball to his parents. "Im going to send it to my mom and dad because Im really happy for them," he said through a translator. "Its a pleasure to give them the ball." HALL OF FAME COMPANY Rollins RBI single in the seventh gave him 657 multihit games, tying Richie Ashburn for the franchise record. "I had no idea. Thats cool, though," the veteran shortstop said. "Ive heard a lot about Richie. To do that is another cool feat along the way." TRAINERS ROOM Phillies: OF-1B John Mayberry Jr. (left wrist inflammation) arrived in the clubhouse a few hours before the game. He was scheduled to fly with the team to Atlanta afterward, and was expected to be activated from the disabled list for Mondays game against the Braves. But on Sunday night, the Phillies traded Mayberry to Toronto for minor league infielder Gustavo Pierre. Mets: LHP Josh Edgin (elbow) is still experiencing significant soreness and will see a doctor again this week, according to Collins. ... RF Curtis Granderson was not in the lineup after going 0 for 4 Saturday on his bobblehead night and striking out with the bases loaded in the seventh. Collins said he thought it was an ideal opportunity to give Granderson a rest. UP NEXT Phillies: LHP Cole Hamels (7-6, 2.59 ERA) faces 13-game winner Julio Teheran on Monday afternoon in Atlanta.
