Edwin Encarnacion tries to etch his name into Major League Baseballs record books tonight, as the Toronto Blue Jays attempt to bounce back from a rare loss in the second test of a four-game set against the Kansas City Royals. Bryan Trottier Jersey . Encarnacions historic month continued on Thursday with two more home runs, but his teams nine-game winning streak came to an end, as Kansas City managed an 8-6 win in 10 innings. An error by shortstop Jose Reyes with two outs in the ninth led to the game- tying run and the Royals scored twice in the 10th off Todd Redmond (0-4) to win it. Alcides Escobar singled and Pedro Ciriaco was hit by a pitch to put two on with no outs in the 10th. Nori Aoki moved the runners with a sacrifice bunt for Omar Infante, whose liner to left knocked in both runners. Wade Davis (4-1) tossed two perfect innings in relief of James Shields to earn the win and Greg Holland pitched around a two-out infield single to nail down his 15th save. The loss spoiled another brilliant performance by Encarnacion, whose 15th and 16th home runs in May tied him with Mickey Mantle for most in the month in American League history. Hes also one shy of Barry Bonds major league record set in 2001. "I dont know where it goes down in history, but its pretty historic in my mind," manager John Gibbons said. This was the sluggers fifth multi-home run game in May after hitting just two homers total in April. "Encarnacion is probably the hottest hitter on the planet right now," Royals manager Ned Yost said. "Hes got 16 home runs in May." Jose Bautista also went deep for Toronto, which had won 12 of 13 coming in. All nine Royals starters had at least one hit as their four-game skid was halted. Salvador Perez hit a solo home run, Infante drove in three runs and Escobar had three hits. Hoping to slow Encarnacion down on Friday will be lefty Jason Vargas, who is 4-2 with a 3.55 ERA. Vargas did not get a decision on Sunday in Anaheim, despite a solid effort that saw him surrender just a run and three hits in 6 1/3 innings of a 4-3 loss. Vargas has faced the Blue Jays seven times and is 1-3 against them with a 5.90 ERA. Toronto, meanwhile, will turn to lefty J.A. Happ, who has won his last three starts. Happ beat the Oakland Athletics on Sunday, as he scattered four hits and struck out seven over seven scoreless innings to run his record to 4-1, while lowering his ERA to 3.34. "Hes filling up the strike zone," Gibbons said. "Hes locked in right now." Happ has faced the Royals three times and is 2-1 against them with a 5.40 ERA. The Royals took two of three from the Jays earlier this season. Ron Francis Jersey . Jesus Navas bookended yet another huge home win for City by scoring after 14 seconds and again in second-half stoppage time, with Sergio Aguero also netting in each half to add to an own goal by Sandro and a brilliant strike by Alvaro Negredo. Paul Martin Jersey . Despite 11-1 records, theyre out and Big Ten winner Ohio State is into the national semifinals. http://www.hockeypenguins.com/authentic-matt-murray-penguins-jersey/ . This week, topics cover the World Series champion Red Sox, John Farrell and what to look forward to this off-season.A season-high seven-game road trip marches on for the Vancouver Canucks, but a visit to their nations capital could be just what they need. The Canucks attempt to avoid losing back-to-back road games for just the second time this season Sunday night, when they try to continue their dominance of the sputtering Ottawa Senators. Listen to the Canucks vs. Senators live on TSN Radio 1040 Vancouver with coverage starting at 2pm pt. Vancouver (18-8-1) owns the best road record in the NHL at 11-5-0, and the team is 3-2 during this extended jaunt. However, the Canucks are coming off a miserable performance, giving up the first four goals in a 5-2 loss at Toronto on Saturday despite holding a 46-28 shot advantage. It felt like we couldve won this game, captain Henrik Sedin said. Even down 4-0, I thought we created enough chances to come back in the game. We hit a few posts and werent able to score more than two. The Canucks may like their chances at bouncing back since theyre 12-3-0 in their last 15 games versus the Senators (10-11-5), including a 4-3 home win Nov. 11. Theyve won six of seven visits to Ottawa, including three straight after a 5-2 victory Nov. 28, 2013. Brothers Henrik and Daniel Sedin, who are tied for the team lead with 25 points, are looking to continue tormenting the Senators. Henrik Sedin has 19 points in 14 games, while Daniel Sedin has 17 in 15. Both have been dominant in Ottawa, combining for 20 points in seven games, including 11 in the past three. Radim Vrbata missed the latest matchup with a leg injury, and he found the net in each of his last three meetings with the Senators while playing for Phoenix. Sidney Crosby Jersey. The right wings 11 goals top Vancouver, but hes scored just once in six games. Ottawa has lost five games in a row (0-4-1) - four by one goal - for the first time since dropping six straight from March 10-22. The Senators pulled closer to that mark Saturday, falling 3-2 at Pittsburgh. Were doing a lot of good things that enable us to win games and were just not getting the results right now, said Craig Anderson, who made 30 saves. It can be frustrating at times, but if we keep focusing on the process and keep focusing on our game, the results will turn around for us and thats what the last few games have been about. Weve been there. Weve been close. We just need to get over that hump. Anderson is enduring his own losing streak, going 0-5-1 with a 3.19 goals-against average, and hes 1-2-1 with a 3.93 mark in his last four games against Vancouver. Backup Robin Lehners only appearance against the Canucks came in relief of Anderson in the most recent home meeting. He stopped 12 of 13 shots after Anderson gave up four goals on 15 attempts and was chased midway through the second period. Erik Karlsson has also struggled against the Canucks, getting just one point in nine career meetings - none in four at home. The defenseman, though, has 10 points in 11 home games, collecting one in each of the past four. Mika Zibanejad has a three-game point streak, scoring goals in back-to-back contests to give him five on the season.
