LOS ANGELES -- Julio Urias cruised through three hitless innings to begin Game 4 of the NL Championship Series. The Los Angeles Dodgers 20-year-old rookie starter seemed to be thriving under the spotlight.Then the lights went out for Urias and the Dodgers.In one miserable night at Chavez Ravine, they squandered a chance to take control of this series and lost their opportunity to win the pennant at home.The Chicago Cubs ended their 21-inning scoreless streak with a four-run fourth against Urias, and the youngest pitcher in big league history to start a postseason game took his first playoff loss in the Dodgers 10-2 defeat Wednesday.I felt comfortable in that situation, but I just didnt get the results, Urias said through a translator.Game 5 is Thursday at Dodger Stadium, with Kenta Maeda scheduled to pitch against Cubs lefty Jon Lester. Los Angeles manager Dave Roberts reiterated he wont start ace Clayton Kershaw on short rest this time, putting the three-time Cy Young Award winner in line for Game 6 on Saturday night at Wrigley Field in Chicago.Roberts said Kershaw was eager to pitch, but Game 5 isnt a deciding game. Its not an elimination game. And I think the accumulation of his usage over the last 10 days plays a factor in our decision.Urias was in fine shape until the fourth inning, and so were the Dodgers plans to keep a powerful Chicago lineup off the board. The left-hander from Mexico didnt pitch much down the stretch for the NL West champions, who gave him a postseason start with the hope he could realize his ample potential in October.Urias walked two Cubs in the first three innings, but otherwise kept them mired in their slump -- until Ben Zobrist led off the fourth with a clever bunt single. Urias acknowledged the bunt caught him off guard.Thats baseball, he said. Even if its a bad hit, its a hit. Thats how they scored their runs.Two more singles and an RBI groundout later, Addison Russells first homer of the postseason put the Cubs up 4-0 and well on their way to a series-tying win.Adrian Gonzalez and several other Dodgers thought things started to unravel two innings earlier when the video review of a close play at the plate didnt go their way.Gonzalez was called out while trying to score from second on Andrew Toles single, and the ruling was upheld after replays that were interpreted both ways.I knew I was safe, Gonzalez said. Weve got plenty of still frames that prove I was safe. Unfortunately, it turned into a trial, and they said there was not enough evidence.Gonzalez believed his run, which would have put the Dodgers up 1-0 and kept the inning going with two runners on, would have given Urias a cushion in a high-pressure situation.It completely changes his way of pitching, Gonzalez said. Now he gets one guy on base, and hes trying not to let that one run score, where if weve got that lead, he feels more comfortable. He attacks it a bit more. It changes everything. One little thing can change the outcome.While Urias didnt finish strong, the Dodgers shaky defense played a big role in the collapse as well. Los Angeles hadnt made four errors in a playoff game since the 1974 NLCS, but Toles throwing error on Willson Contreras soft single to left field allowed Zobrist to easily score the Cubs first run since Game 1.We played a very sloppy game overall, Gonzalez said. Sometimes that happens. Obviously that was a big reason we lost today, but were confident well play better.Down 5-0 in the fifth, the Dodgers still had a chance to get back in it. They loaded the bases against reliever Mike Montgomery, who accidentally deflected Justin Turners comebacker into shallow left field for a two-run single.But Gonzalez and Kike Hernandez failed to reach base, and the Cubs turned it into a laugher moments later with a five-run sixth. The Dodgers defense chipped in again, with Hernandez and Joc Pederson making throwing errors while the Cubs batted around .Thousands of Dodgers fans hit the freeways early, unwilling to watch a healthy contingent of Cubs rooters celebrate.Now the NLCS is down to a best-of-three, with the Dodgers still two wins from their first pennant since 1988, and the AL champion Cleveland Indians waiting for a World Series opponent next week.Clayton Kershaw Jersey . Only three players drafted by NHL clubs were included on the Czech selection camp roster on Wednesday. Those players were Dallas Stars 2012 first-rounder Radek Faksa, Winnipeg Jets 2013 fourth-rounder Jan Kostalek and Phoenix Coyotes 2012 seventh-rounder Marek Langhamer. Chris Taylor Jersey .ca. Kerry, Just watched the shootout in the Coyotes/Leafs game and I have to ask, why was the James van Riemsdyk goal allowed to count? All of the video replays we were shown on TV were inconclusive about whether the puck had entirely crossed the line or not. http://www.dodgerssale.com/dodgers-kirk-gibson-jersey/ . Tevez, who has had conflicts with coaches in the past, has not been called up since Sabella was named coach in 2011. Argentina boasts Lionel Messi, Gonzalo Higuain, Sergio Aguero, Ezequiel Lavezzi and Angel Di Maria. Joe Kelly Jersey . -- Matt Kuchar and Harris English ran away with the Franklin Templeton Shootout, shooting a 14-under 58 on Sunday in the final-round scramble to break the tournament course record. Mike Piazza Jersey . Varlamov made 33 saves and Ryan OReilly had a goal and scored in the shootout as the Avalanche beat the New Jersey Devils 2-1 on Thursday night.TROON, Scotland -- Jason Day is more motivated by failure than success, which helps explain how he reached No. 1 in the world.And it all started last year at the British Open.Day had never felt so calm in the midst of such raging emotion that being in contention at a major can bring. He had an innate sense that it would all work out in his favor, right up until the moment that it didnt.He had a 30-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole at St. Andrews to get into a playoff. It was right on line. And he left it short.But it was that moment he realized he was good enough to win majors, and that he would win them if he had more chances. Three weeks later, he won the PGA Championship with such a dominant display of power that he became the first player to finish at 20-under par in a major.Six weeks later, he reached No. 1 for the first time.It was kind of, I guess, the start of my run where everything kind of changed my world, Day said.The 28-year-old Aussie arrived at Royal Troon on the weekend and headed out to a links course he had never seen, playing in a wind he might not see the rest of the week.The intrigue of Troon is that the shorter nine going out typically is with the wind, while the stronger, longer holes coming back are into the wind. It was the other way around over the weekend, and it began to shift on Monday on the first official day of practice with 25 mph (40 kph) gusts straight off the Irish Sea.In the last five days, the forecast has changed dramatically, defending champion Zach Johnson said. And my guess is, it could change again.The forecast for Day has a little more clarity.He has finished out of the top 10 only twice in his nine tournaments dating to March. What he brings to the Ayrshire coast of Scotland is more motivation -- his last golfing memory was more failure.Day appeared to be firmly in control at the World Golf Championship in Ohio two weeks ago until he three-putted for bogey on the 15th hole, made a mess of the par-5 16th hole on his way to a double bogey, and wound up three shots behind U.S. Open champion Dustin Johnson.I learn more when I fail thaan when I win, Days.dddddddddddd Were not going to win every single one. Even though I dont like losing, it was great to be able to learn something from that and turn this into what I would say a learning experience. ... It was really bad. It was a terrible way to lose, and it was frustrating and disappointing. But things like this, you cant win them all.He said the Tiger Woods era spoiled golf fans into believing everyone should win tournaments when given a chance, and no one was better at that than Woods. Seventy times around the world, Woods had at least a share of the 54-hole lead. He won 60 of them.Thats what Im shooting for, to be able to finish off like he did back in the day, he said. Will I ever get to a point like that? Maybe not. But thats what Im shooting for right now.As a kid, Day said the two biggest tournaments were the Masters and the British Open. Australians have a long history with the claret jug, dating to Peter Thomson winning five times and Greg Norman winning twice. Day was only a year old when Norman closed with a 64 at Royal Troon, only to hit his drive on the final hole of the playoff so far that it went into a pot bunker and ended his chances.Norman still has his name on the jug twice. Woods, whom Day seeks out for advice in golf, is on there three times.Coming so close last year was definitely a motivational factor in that I would love to one day hold the claret jug and be able to put my name down in history with the best that have ever lived and played the game, he said.The jug for the last year belonged to Johnson, who poured wine from it one last time on Sunday night at a house he is sharing with players. Johnsons first duty Monday morning was to give it back to R&A chief Martin Slumbers outside the clubhouse at Royal Troon.It was bittersweet, Johnson said. More sweet, but the fact that youve got to give it back, you know its coming. I guess a portion of that sweetness is you still have an opportunity to get it back. ' ' '
