The winner last week at the Milwaukee Mile, Hunter-Reay moved to second place in the season with his seventh career IndyCar victory - the most among active drivers in the United States. The victory was the fourth in six races in Iowa Andrettti Autosport

His teammate Marco Andretti was second, followed by Tony Kanaan and Dixon. Andretti won last year in the 0875-mile oval.

"Hunter-Reay was logical to have won with caution, because 10 of the 25 cars failed to finish.

Dario Franchitti pole was removed after his engine exploded before the green flag fell - a strike that could paralyze his shot on the fourth consecutive title in the series.

Championship leader Will Power was restored after only 68 laps as EJ Viso hit him from behind.

The cord was cut to three points.

James Hinchcliffe, who entered the race second in the points chase, caught the wall and did not finish well.

Not surprisingly, will not last long.

Leader Ryan Briscoe, drifting towards the final place on the corner was because the tire. However, almost the same place where it was collected and energy side, Briscoe was punched the newcomer Josef Newgarden.

"You were very far from here." S too late in a corner to make a transition like this, "said Briscoe." Is a rookie and he learned from him. It's a shame because I think the fuel they were able to win the thing. "

Franchitti had probably worked better than anyone in his four openings in Iowa

Saturday night, could barely started.

Franchitti won here in 2007 and 2009 and reached the pole on Friday after winning the last of three qualifying hoses. But Franchitti said the same engine he used to win the 500 Miles of Indianapolis, was in May with the principle.

Franchitti up smoking in the car on the straight and was immediately towed off the track.

"It was getting a very strange noise," said Franchitti. "Real disappointing."

It's the first time Franchitti was unable to finish the road back to the last row from the first event in 2004 and 2005. Not long before the switch to join Franchitti Paddock.

The power was just above the lower side of the track when he grabbed the back of the inside No. 12 car. Accused could face quickly to block, just two weeks after the ignition has been sanctioned by blocking Tony Kanaan, his teammate Viso KV Racing, Texas.

"He just blocked, locked and I knew that you could not go down more," said Viso. "He simply followed his path and I had nowhere to go.

This is not a question of will you use to know, to be cleaned. This is the second race in a row that has hit someone on my team . It's very disappointing. "

In its favor, to acknowledge his mistake after seeing the replay for the first time.

"Oh (whistle) Oh, I see. I even got the call that was under me. So I feel, my friend, I never even knew was there. I feel bad for him," he said Power. "I can not believe (it) What happened as I hit".

Cara is also shown dissatisfaction with the Power Key jumping pit and waving the Australian style. At this time, Franchitti went to the NBC Sports broadcast booth, where he received a blow in the face.

Yankees Bash Two Homers to Top Mets

Eric Chavez just knew it was something good for his team on Saturday, when he heard a roar from fans of the Yankees Citi Field. Chavez was walking through the tunnel between the bank and the visitors clubhouse, keeping their surgical repair loose when Raul Ibanez hit a home run for three runs in the seventh entry, tying the game 3-3.

Soon after, Chavez was batter up, and realized, 0-2.

"The first two shots, I do not see very well," said Chavez, referring to the Mets reliever Jon Rauch. "The third release, was only trying to protect the plate, really."

In a straight pool, Chavez thought the batazo line that had stuck to the left of the field was foul. It was not. Is simply removed from the wall of eight feet, just right of center for a solo homer to give the Yankees the lead in their 4-3 victory against the Mets.

"I felt good," Chavez said of making his first career home run hitter up. "Honestly, I do not feel they have shot the first two releases."

Chavez's home run ended a four-post game when racing in reverse in what seemed a jiffy.

Before the largest crowd at Citi Field has announced four seasons (42 122), the Mets built a 3-0, but against the power of the Yankees, was not sure.

"We have players who can hit the ball outside the stadium," Yankees manager Joe Girardi. "And there are guys with experience. Not leave too caught up in the moment."

The Daniel Murphy 'Mets flew deep to the right with a runner on first to end the game. The bat, the ball seemed to hit well. But Murphy is still seeking his first homer of the season.

"You could tell by the sound," the Mets manager Terry Collins said. "That does not sound good."

Chris Young in the first quarter of the season - and for shoulder surgery, only the eighth since he signed with the Mets in 2010 - was almost imbateable over six innings. He retired 11 in a row the first turns to the camera.

Young was one of the most interesting game, a star 6-foot-10 former Princeton basketball, with an average speed in miles per hour straight (84) is much larger than its height in centimeters (82 ).

Step by young people, however, is unusually long, the sign on the hill where he planted his leg was nearly a foot below where the Yankees starting pitcher Ivan Nova landed normally. And with this step, the couple created the impression that the pitch is right in the batter.

"It's a sneaky fastball," said Ibanez. "You look up and you think that says 84 or 85, but it seems much harder than that. And he was using the slider and breaking ball, too."

In the seventh, the Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira opened by drawing a walk, and the next batter, Nick Swisher, who defeated ball right in the garden. The defender, Lucas Duda, took a step back at first, but then we had to climb, only to see the ball drop in front of him.

One step further, Ibanez tied the game with a flat batazo line that opened the wall on the right seemed mm.

"I was just trying to get a man," said Ibanez. "When I arrived, I thought I had to work very hard to get two."

This coup led by young game that follows of 97 shots, four hits, walking three to four strikeouts.

Ibáñez also had the Hook homer opener Yankees loss after allowing three runs New (two net) in five and two thirds innings.

The Mets hit the board first with a solo homer to left field by Kirk Nieuwenhuis in the third, and scored a run in the fourth dirty after Alex Rodriguez launched a leadoff roletazo Scott Hairston. Hairston scored with a shot eventually.

Young built the 3-0 Mets lead "with a simple tug on the sixth inning, chasing New.

The Yankees bullpen has done its job, though. The Mets put runners on first and second with one out in the eighth inning. However, reliever David Robertson poncho Nieuwenhuis and Justin Turner to squeeze the threat.

The Mets came into play in a good mood, having won four in a row, including the 6-4 victory at night. They have reason to remain optimistic - his feelings, RA Dickey, the hottest pitcher in baseball, takes the mound on Sunday night.

However, the speed of the fall Saturday night, the Mets seem to have a game, has caused a certain neurosis of war.

"They can get you in a minute," said Collins. "There's a man in the lineup that can hit the ball out of the stadium. You can not make mistakes."

Washington falls 2-1 in Davey Johnsons return to Baltimore

BALTIMORE - Three hours before the first pitch Friday night, long before the collapse of their best player, has discovered new depths, Manager Davey Johnson, shuffling along the tunnel and the third base dugout of the Orioles to Park at Camden Yards, dressed in the uniform of Washington DC.

"The view is different on this side, eh?" Johnson slurred. He smiled. He was a visitor in a place he loves, an opponent of the team that remains, even after all that has happened. "All my memories of Baltimore and baseball are good memories," said Johnson.

In the first game at Camden Yards Johnson 15 years, the citizens gave him a tight game to remember, but the result of forgetting. The Baltimore Orioles defeated the Nationals, 2-1, before a crowd sold, 45,891 souls, animated by the sudden rise of two franchises previously painful.

The piece is more alarming for citizens of Zimmerman. He worked to get a rare strike, prolonged illness, caused by inflammation in his right shoulder. The teammates and coaches insist on a good run soon consumed the cold weather, but when it is growing worse. Zimmerman has five hits in his last 46 blocks, with nine strikeouts and no Extrabases.

"Nobody wants to do better than me. What I do best," said Zimmerman. "I want out of this. I want to do more to help the team. But until that happens, I have yet to help children and young people playing good defense. Pots or I can not worry about me. I just go to and give back. "

Later, Johnson said that Zimmerman was "safe" is healthy. Zimmerman admitted he had considered moving into the lineup, but "I like where it is. I know I can do. He does not have to prove anything. I still like the odds every time inside. "

Orioles pitcher Jason Hammel cut right through the alignment of National, getting 5 hits and no runs in eight innings clean, while deleting 10 and with only 96 shots. Ryan Zimmerman has a 0 to 4, another sad night for the rotation of the star player in Washington.

And the right pitcher Jordan Zimmermann had seven innings without his best repertoire, allowing two runs and eight hits, having lost support because of race, generally poor.

Johnson Angelos is not spoken in years. But Johnson did not allow any lingering antipathy toward Angelos to infect their vision of the city or the team.

"Managers are hired to be fired," he said. "Every time I was here, were the fun time for me. I really enjoy playing here, learn the game of baseball here. It's been fun and return management of the cities I played in."

hreatening time delay the game for 1 hour 1 minute, warm and humid conditions and made a fight for Zimmermann. The ground through another hard luck defeat, dropping to 3-6 in his foja its average effectiveness moved to 2.89.

His slider, he said, was "terrible." The mound of earth attached to their studs. A rola hard pierced arch of right foot. I, however, allowed only two runs, a homer from Mark Reynolds in the second and a double in the fifth producer of Hardy.

"It seemed that every entry had to drive in runners," said Zimmermann. "I had to fight tonight."

The first two Hardy, Desmond had removed the top of the fifth inning with a single bounce to half. Before the game, Johnson said he voted for Desmond to his All-Star.

These are not numbers that do Desmond a strong contender. And 'the general panache of his game - his defense, his leadership and his chaos.

With a head and Desmond have to first base, he knew a roletazo Bernadino on the left side. The third baseman Wilson Betemit went two steps to his left and fired to first.

Desmond had gone to the second, and when he saw the persistence of shortstop Betemit has bolted.

"We had a lot going on there offensive," said Desmond. "So I tried to put a little pressure" on them. "

Germany beats Greece 4-2 to reach semifinals

Gdansk, Poland (AP) with Chancellor Angela Merkel, cheering every step of the way, Germany has dominated Greece - the football field.

The Germans reached the semifinals of the European Championship record for the seventh time, beating Greece 4-2 on Friday in a game played between the bottom of the political disputes between countries.

But just like the real world, where Germany has been an important source of economic bailouts of Greece, the champions three times had control in the arena of Gdansk. And after the game, Merkel visited the players in the dressing room.

'' (Merkel) has congratulated us and told me he played very well,'' he said ahead of Germany Mesut Özil. '' The rest of what will be said between us.''

Philipp Lahm put Germany ahead in 39 minutes as his team controls almost all aspects of the game. Even Georgios Samaras tied to Greece in 55, all Germany was, after all, as Sami Khedira, Miroslav Klose and Marco Reus scored.

It 's been 15 consecutive competitive victory for Germany, dating back to win against Uruguay for third World Cup of 2010. The Germans for the No. 16 against England and Italy in the semifinals on Thursday in Warsaw.

Although Germany has dominated from the start, the Greek defense remained strong throughout most of the first. Lahm put his team in front by controlling the ball with his chest and dribbling towards the center before sending a shot from long distance in a corner beyond the reach of goalkeeper Greece Michalis Sifaka.

'' I could not breathe and has done very little with our possibilities and from dead ball situations,'' said Greece coach Fernando Santos. '' The first goal was to put things very difficult for us, despite our good effort on defense.''
The Greeks looked better in the beginning of the second half, and tied to Samaras hit the ball over goalkeeper Manuel Neuer in Germany after a cross from Dimitris Salpigidis perfect.

He was one of the few incursions of Greece in the field the side of Germany.
'' Greece is a strange team. They had one chance and scored twice,'' said German coach Joachim Loew. '' But do not become nervous after 1-1 and reached the goals.''
They really have.

Khedira on the run from a center Jerome Boateng in 61, and Klose to head a free kick on 68 Özil as Sifaka was late to hit the ball.

'' When we conceded the second goal we had to open and it cost us,'' said Salpigidis. '' I hope that the Greeks had some incentive to see to fight.''

Reus was 4-1 in 74, shot a volley off the underside of the crossbar after Sifaka saved to Klose. Salpigidis added a consolation penalty for Greece in 89.

'' We scored two goals. We did what we could,'' said defender Sokratis Papastathopoulos of Greece. ''
Maybe we could have been a little 'more carefully, but we fight, we fight for all of Greece.''
Loew dropped his three main strikers for the game, including striker Mario Gomez, the leader, but their replacements did well.

Klose, who has Polish heritage, constantly concerned with the Greek defense and linked well with Özil and Andre Schuerrle.

Greece has had a major change in their training, but was due to suspension. Giorgos Karagounis captain missed the game after collecting a yellow card in the 1-0 win over Russia for diving.

Cristiano Ronaldo living up to hype at Euro 2012

Cristiano Ronaldo has a strong if on Thursday as the MVP of the tournament, raising his shoulders and led Portugal to the semifinals with his team in a game, a header that was sent home the winner of the Republic Czech.

Ronaldo was the best player in the field of Miles, and if I had the support enjoyed by the top of Real Madrid, this game could be close.

But the weakness of Portugal remains the lack of a pure striker, the Czechs have shown that future adversaries could stop the great man - but we must do more to shut down completely.

What Ronaldo showed in the last two games is the marriage of pure hard work and clinical skills. From time to time on Thursday, the lines overlap and opened up the lane, only to see their less efficient - and certainly less visionary - teammates a chance to fly.

 Their expressions of frustration, fatigue, inability to think in absolute desperation in his support team that will be held as examples of his petulance. In fact, the reactions of a man who simply can not understand how other players can not see the game as him.

As was the case with Michael Jordan when he was surrounded by wings, as Luc Longley, Ronaldo's mind moves at a different pace.

Ronaldo was clearly impressed by the idea that he is not a member of the pantheon of football elite. He believes it should be mentioned in the same breath Pele, Messi, Zidane and Cantona - and seems genuinely surprised that it is not. His talents are both a product of hard work as a birth gift, but everyone seems to focus on his career as a weather vane is not the end of the Renaissance, as a more accurate marker for the happily ever game.

This sits on your shoulders like a backpack full of bricks. Not only must have a team of players that are slightly above average, not only have to win every game for his country, must know a guy who is not well in this tournament.

Lionel Messi is the club Ronaldo is constantly beaten on the head, and his anger last week that he recalled that he may not be as big as the little Argentine seems really relevant to them.

 What does not seem to bother all the indignation of the crowd. As in the case of Mexico striker Cuauhtemoc Blanco, a player who became known he invited fans to "hate more," Ronaldo seems to feed off the negativity, when the lights are on.

It was booed all night by a crowd of Poland, reluctantly, decided to encourage the Czechs. (In fact they were more excited about singing the name of your computer.)

However, every time Ronaldo has the ball, whistles missing a thousandth of a second after the ball has left his laces, all eyes turned to see if this would be when he returned to record.

He delights in the transformation of boos, but the applause, then cries of surprise. When he returned Michal KADLEC in the meantime, he received a pass from Raul Meireles in the air, with what appeared to be the axis at the bottom of the boot, the crowd at the National Stadium in Warsaw's 'breathes as one.

Then, dial: with a single step, has fueled space, beat Petr Cech with a low shot - and had the misfortune to see him leave the pole.

 Even a man as elusive as Ronaldo can not win games by himself, and anyone looking defensive effort of the Czech team have been 70 minutes that you can navigate the space.

His goal, a header at Cech blowing through an intersection of fine lines of Joao Moutinho, was an atypical year for a man known more for his shooting boots skills.

But it was a sublime piece of finishing, but a combination of a cross and the final round of Ronaldo, who left no marks on his defense.

At this time, after his teammates had lost one case after another, was certainly a goal that was happy to have.

Ronaldo still has a lot to prove, more to do. It showed when it counted in the last two major parties, but seems to be cursed by a player called a choke artist the next time you have a night out. Never win the mass of fans, his hair is cut too perfect, her smile too wide - and its seems too presumptuous.
