LOS ANGELES -- After 67 years, Los Angeles wasnt ready to say goodbye to Vin Scully.With the Colorado Rockies holding a 3-2 lead with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning,?Corey Seager, the?Los Angeles Dodgers 22-year-old shortstop, hit a home run to right field to tie the game and extend the final home game for the 88-year-old announcer one more inning.Sunday was the final game Scully will broadcast from Dodger Stadium as he nears the end of a 67-year career that began in 1950, when the Dodgers were in Brooklyn, and spanned nearly seven decades.And wouldnt you know wed go extra innings, Scully said after Seagers home run. Of course, you didnt have anything better to do, anyway.With two outs in the bottom of the 10th inning, Charlie Culberson homered on a fly ball to left field to give the Dodgers a 4-3 victory and their fourth straight National League West title, a franchise first, in Scullys final game behind the microphone at Dodger Stadium.The Dodgers have clinched the division, Scully said on the call. And will celebrate on schedule.It was a storybook moment in a storybook career for Scully, who was given a standing ovation after the game from the crowd and the players, who took off their championship hats and waved them at a smiling Scully up in the broadcast booth.Vin, we love, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said on the field after the game as he looked up at Scully. This is for you, my friend.Scully will retire after finishing a three-game series in San Francisco next weekend.During Sundays game, Dodgers players tipped their helmets toward Scully before stepping into the batters box -- an idea that was hatched by Adrian Gonzalez and Justin Turner while the two were texting the night before the game.After Roberts on-field interview, Scully got on the microphone and addressed the crowd from the press box named after him.Im terribly embarrassed, he said, standing up from his chair with his wife, Sandra, seated behind him. I was hoping the team would win the game 10 to nothing, and there would be no tension, and it would be a nice, easy day because I have a very, very small, modest contribution on my last day. I have always felt you folks in the stands have been far, far more important to me. You have given me enthusiasm. You have given me young at heart.Believe me when I tell you Ive needed you far more than youve needed me. Anyway, I wanted to try and express my appreciation to all the players. God bless them, and to all you folks at the ballpark. Its a very, very modest thing, but I sang this for my wife -- it was a loving gesture. You know the song, the Wind Beneath My Wings, and thats what you are. You are the wind beneath the teams wings, and you are the wind beneath my wings. I know its modest, I know its an amateur, but do you mind listening?With that, Scully sat down as the players on the field and the crowd erupted in applause while a recording of Scully singing Wind Beneath My Wings played at Dodger Stadium.When the song had finished, the players began jumping and celebrating their win in the division on the field before heading to the clubhouse. Meanwhile, Scully said goodbye to his friends in the broadcast booth before exiting the Vin Scully Press Box for the final time.Thank you, Scully said as he walked out. Thank you so very much.

Adidas Schuhe Schweiz Günstig . - The Oakland Raiders re-signed offensive lineman Khalif Barnes on Friday. Adidas Schuhe Schweiz Online . -- Quarterback Will Finch threw for 252 yards and three touchdowns, and Yannick Harou rushed in two scores as the No. STORRS, Conn. -- Katie Lou Samuelson was expected take on more of the scoring load for UConn this season and is meeting those expectations.The sophomore put up a career-high in points for the second consecutive game Tuesday night. Her 29 led the nations second-ranked team to a 98-65 win over Dayton.Samuelson, who had 28 points on Sunday against LSU, hit 10 of her 17 shots and was 4 of 8 from 3-point range. She also had six assists and pulled down six rebounds.I know I got a lot of 3s against LSU and Im not going to get that every game, she said. So I just tried to do more than just stand on the 3-point line.Gabby Williams tied her single-game high with 19 points, pulled down 11 rebounds and had a career-high five assists for the Huskies (4-0). Napheesa Collier chipped in with 22 points to help extend the nations longest winning streak to 79 games.Jenna Burdette and Lauren Cannatelli each scored 15 for Dayton (2-2), which had won two straight.The Flyers led 10-5 midway through the first quarter. Burdette had five points during that run. But the Huskies scored the next 15 and led 22-13 going into the second quarter.Samuelson had 20 points by intermission and it was 51-31 at halftime.UConn made 48.7 percent of its shots and outscored the Flyers 50-30 in the paint.We got some easy buckets, which we didnt get at LSU or Baylor , UConn coach Geno Auriemma said. We got a couple tonight and that really helped. And once again, if you shoot the ball well, everything looks good.THE BIG PICTUREUConn: The Huskies streak seems almost certain to reach at least 80 games, but after that things could get interesting again. UConn began the season with wins over two top-12 opponents in Florida State and Baylor. They play Chattanooga next, but face No. 18 DePaul, No. 14 Texas, top-ranked Notre Dame, No. 8 Ohio State and No. 6 Maryland, all before January. UConns winning streak is the third longest in college basketball history, behind only its own program record of 90 straight from 2008-10 and the UCLA mens record of 88 consecutive victories from 1971-74.Dayton: The Flyers had bounced back nicely after a season-opening loss at home to Quinnipiac, with road wins over Wiscoonsin and Princeton.dddddddddddd First-year coach Shauna Greens team was picked to finish second in the Atlantic 10 and believed a trip to Storrs could help prepare them for the conference season. She was pleased with the effort.I dont care about the score; I dont look at the scoreboard, said Green, who was an assistant until Jim Jabir resigned for personal reasons in September. Thats all weve been preaching -- you have to fight. It doesnt matter, just continue to play hard and with some energy and some passion.STAT OF THE GAMEThe Huskies had 27 assists on 37 baskets, with four players dishing out four or more. Freshman Crystal Dangerfield led the way with nine assists, followed by Samuelson (6), Williams (5) and Kia Nurse (4).OTHER STREAKSThe 79-game streak isnt the only run UConn is on. The Huskies have won 111 games against unranked opponents, 51 straight home games and 23 straight regular season non-conference games (116 of 120). Theyve also gone 853 games without losing back-to-back contests.POLL IMPLICATIONSUConns ranking likely wont be affected by this game. Barring any upsets, they should stay where they are until the Dec. 7 showdown with top-ranked Notre Dame in South Bend.UP NEXTUConn: After playing four games in nine days, the Huskies are off for the Thanksgiving holiday before hosting their first game off campus in Hartford on Nov. 29 against Chattanooga.Auriemma said the team wont practice again until Saturday . Most of the players will be traveling home. The others, he said, are invited to his house for turkey and lasagna.Weve been traveling a lot and I think the kids are tired, he said.Dayton: The Flyers are off to Bimini in the Bahamas for the Junkanoo Jam, where they will face Georgia Tech on Friday and then either Missouri or Creighton.Thats three great teams from Power Five conferences, Green said. If we can get two wins down there, that just builds your resume for later on in March. I really want to see how we respond to this and see our mental toughness, see how we take this and use it to get better. ' ' '
