HAMILTON - The Hamilton Tiger-Cats are on a roll and thats breeding new confidence in a team that got off to a very slow start. Kenny Young Jersey . I think our guys were always confident, Ticats head coach Kent Austin said Friday. We are young, though. When youve got that level of youth, you need to win for the confidence to be more consistent and to be more authentic. Hamilton (5-7) will take a three-game winning streak into Saturdays game against the visiting B.C. Lions. The Ticats have won four of five overall to move into a tie for first place in the weak CFL East Division. Catch all the action starting at 7pm et/4pm pt on TSN1 and TSN4. The game can also be heard on TSN1410 at 2pm pt. The Ticats are also undefeated at Tim Hortons Field (3-0) since they started playing there on Labour Day. The return of starting quarterback Zach Collaros has also given the team a boost. He missed five games earlier this season due to concussion-like symptoms and Hamilton started the season at 1-6. The Ticats also had to play their first three home games at McMaster University while waiting for their new stadium to open. Right now, in all honesty, this is the hottest team in the league, said B.C. head coach Mike Benevides. Youve got to play your best football and its about every single person playing to the best of their ability because theyre tough to deal with. B.C. (7-6) has lost two straight and sits fourth in the CFL West, but the Lions currently hold a crossover playoff spot since they have a better record than the third-place Toronto Argonauts in the East. On the ground, the Lions will be without Andrew Harris who has a dislocated ankle. Lewis led the league coming into this week with 1,181 yards from scrimmage. They are also without starting quarterback Travis Lulay, who injured his right throwing shoulder on Sept. 5 against Ottawa in his first game back this season after undergoing off-season shoulder surgery. However, the Lions can turn to veteran pivot Kevin Glenn, a former Hamilton starter who has completed 216 of 343 pass attempts for 2,830 yards, 13 touchdowns and 14 interceptions this season. He will have Emmanuel Arceneaux as a target, the leagues second-leading receiver with seven touchdowns and 773 yards on 47 receptions. Im on a very good team, said Glenn. Yes weve struggled a little bit lately, but were still in the thick of things. We still have plenty enough football left to get to where we want to be ... this is about us as players putting our foot down and going out and doing what we need to do. B.C. won its first meeting with Hamilton back in August with a 36-29 victory in Vancouver. Glenn was at the helm for the Lions and backup pivot Dan LeFevour was under centre for Hamilton. He played a great game, were very aware of that, Austin said of Glenn. He made plays and found some open receivers. Especially, a couple times we dropped receivers, and he scrambled around and found them and it turned into big plays. So we just have to be more disciplined defensively and make sure we dont drop receivers when they throw the football. Benevides said the Lions are aware that the Tiger-Cats are a very different team than when they last met now that Collaros is back starting at quarterback. But this weeks matchup may very well end up to be a defensive battle. Hamilton currently sports the leagues best run defence while B.C. owns the best pass defence. B.C. linebacker Solomon Elimimian leads the CFL with 108 defensive tackles. Former CFL all-star defensive end Justin Hickman will play in his second game with the Ticats after returning from a stint in the NFL. He had one sack and two tackles last week against Winnipeg. Hickman and Glenn are friends from their days in Steeltown. Hickman has said he chose the No. 5 for his jersey as a tribute to Glenn, who wore that number in Hamilton. Hickman said the one thing he admires most about Glenn is the quarterbacks mental toughness, but come game time the defensive end that once led the league in quarterback sacks will have something else on his mind. For three years, I couldnt touch him in practice, Hickman said. Now, Ive got a chance to go get him.

Watching them over the past year - and in some cases, two years - has given us a starting point for this seasons Craigs List. http://www.ravensauthoritystore.com/Authentic-Kenny-Young-Ravens-Jersey/ . The Canadians led for much of the game before Argentina forced overtime in the dying seconds of the fourth quarter. Canada weathered the storm after squandering a lead with a series of made shots. "Its a fantastic win for our country with 11 first-time Canadian national team members," said head coach Roy Rana.HOUSTON -- Tampa Bay manager Joe Maddon peered at the box score through his thick, black-framed eyeglasses after Friday nights game against the Houston Astros and kept repeating one word. "Wow," Maddon said three times as he read off his pitchers strikeout totals. "I didnt realize we had that many." Alex Cobb had 11 of the Rays season high-tying 16 strikeouts, helping Tampa Bay to its first road win in almost a month, 6-1 over the Astros. Ben Zobrist, Matt Joyce and Evan Longoria drove in two runs apiece to break a 10-game road skid dating to May 16. Its just the third win in the last 17 games overall for the Rays, who have the worst record in the majors at 26-42. "This was more like were supposed to play, like we can play," Maddon said. "Got the hits, a couple hits when we needed it." The six runs they scored on Friday night matched the total number of runs theyd managed in their previous six games combined. Cobb (2-4) rebounded from his worst start of the year to allow three hits and one run with a season best in strikeouts in 6 1-3 innings. He gave up 10 hits and seven runs in a season-low 4 1-3 innings in his last outing. "You go borderline crazy after bad starts," Cobb said. "You start running your mechanics through your mind thousands of times and it keeps you up at night sometimes. It feels good to come out and see that your adjustments paid off." Joyce put the Rays up with his two-run double in the second and Zobrist, who finished with three hits, extended the lead to 4-1 with a triple that drove in two in the fifth inning. Longoria padded the lead with his bases-loaded two RBI single in the ninth. Houston rookie Jon Singleton continued his hot start, hitting his fourth homer in his 11th career game. He also homered on Thursday night. But the rest of the Astros couldnt get anything going as the team managed just three other hits and set a season high for strikeouts. Houston manager Bo Porter believes that some of his teams struggles on Friday night could be attributed to second baseman Jose Altuve sitting out. Altuve missed the game after being hit in the hand by a pitch on Thursday night and is day to day. Mark Andrews Jersey. "Any time you dont have Jose in your lineup, its going to hurt you from the standpoint of hes arguably our best player and leads Major League Baseball in hits for a reason," Porter said. "His presence will be missed any time hes not in the lineup." Collin McHugh (4-4) allowed five hits and four runs in five innings for the loss. James Loney reached on an error by shortstop Jonathan Villar to start the second inning before a double by Zobrist. Joyces double made it 2-0. Houstons Chris Carter singled with two outs in the second inning for his first hit that wasnt a homer since June 3. He had hit five straight homers in that span. Robbie Grossman walked after that but Cobb struck out Marwin Gonzalez to end the threat. Singleton sent Cobbs first pitch of the fourth inning opposite field into the Crawford Boxes in left field to cut the lead to 2-1. Cobb walked Matt Dominguez with one out in that inning before he got rolling, retiring the next eight, including striking out the side in the sixth inning. He also struck out the first three batters of the game. The Astros didnt get another hit until Dominguez singled to start the seventh. Carter followed by knocking a ball about 425 feet to straightaway centre field, but Jennings raced up the hill to grab it. Brad Boxberger replaced Cobb and struck out two batters in 2-3 innings and Joel Peralta fanned the side in the eighth. Jennings doubled with no outs in the fifth before Loney drew a two-out walk. Zobrist made it 4-1 with his triple to centre field which snapped an 0 for 26 streak with runners in scoring position. NOTES: Houston recalled RHP Josh Zeid from Triple-A Oklahoma City and optioned LHP Rudy Owens to the minor league team before the game. ... Tampa Bay RHP Jeremy Hellickson (elbow) made his second rehab start Thursday for Triple-A Durham. He allowed six hits and four runs in 2 1-3 innings. Maddon said he isnt as concerned about the results as he is how hes feeling. He could rejoin the rotation at the end of the month. ...
