The Boston Red Sox and Baltimore Orioles begin a critical four-game series Monday at Camden Yards that will help decide the American League East crown.Boston comes off its first sweep of the rival New York Yankees in a series of four or more games in 26 years since June 4-7, 1990. The Red Sox now lead the division by three games and can further distance themselves from the Orioles, who split a four-game with the last-place Tampa Bay Rays over the weekend.I know our guys are going to be ready and I know Boston is going to be ready, Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. Theyre in a good spot. We knew coming out of spring training after watching all the things they did in the offseason they were going to be one of the favorites going in.With a young group of players in place like Mookie Betts, Xander Bogaerts and Jackie Bradley Jr., the Red Sox have appeared re-energized in the second half of the season. Boston has managed several come-from-behind victories over the past month and that has only boosted its confidence.Its really fun to be a part of, Boston reliever Matt Barnes. This is a team that weve gone through struggles, not too many, but we know the capability of this team. This team never gives up. You kind of know from start to finish it never stops.The Orioles will try to set the tone for the series with Dylan Bundy (9-5, 3.88 ERA) in the opener. Bundy has been one of the anchors of the rotation since being named a starter earlier in the season. In his last outing, Bundy picked up the win against the Red Sox when he allowed three runs on six hits over 51/3 innings.Baltimore might have caught a break with the return of Darren ODay, who was reinstated Sunday from 15-day disabled list after recovering from a right shoulder rotator cuff strain. ODay, the Orioles setup man, pitched for the first time since Aug. 11 against the Rays and allowed a home run to Corey Dickerson on his first pitch.It was awesome to be back, ODay said. Be able to help the guys out Theyve been having a heavy workload down there. So to take one inning its helpful. Obviously the day was made even better by the win at the end there. It was a good day.Boston will counter with Rick Porcello (20-4, 3.12 ERA), who leads the American League in wins. Porcello lost his last outing against Baltimore 1-0 when he allowed a homer to Mark Trumbo in the second inning. That allowed the Orioles to take the key three-game series.While Boston sits atop the division, manager John Farrell expects his team to be in a fight to the final day of the season, especially with the amount of talent in the division. The Toronto Blue Jays are also within striking distance of the division lead.We dont anticipate anything different from here all the way out, Farrell said. This is going to be a hard-fought division right to the final game of the season. We fully embrace it. We fully expect it and were looking forward to the challenges ahead. Air Max 720 Release .

Now tied for second in the league in shootout goals, the 24-year-old likes to see what the opposing goaltender has in store before he ultimately lands on a move. BLACKSBURG, Va. -- Virginia Tech and Tennessee will play on Saturday night before the largest crowd ever to watch a college football game in person.Both teams are working to look a lot sharper than they did in their season openers.Tennessee (1-0), ranked No. 9, needed a missed extra point and a missed 42-yard field goal in regulation by Appalachian State to reach overtime before prevailing 20-13. Virginia Tech (1-0) had three first-half turnovers and trailed Liberty 13-10 in the second quarter before getting untracked offensively in a 36-13 victory.First-year Hokies coach Justin Fuente hopes his team learns a lot this week, but said it might be hard to recognize those gains on the field.You could improve a lot and maybe not be able to tell when you take a step up like were going to take a step, he said Monday. Thats just the facts of it. ... I have a tremendous amount of respect for Liberty and what theyve done and their program, but the team were going to play on Saturday is much more talented.The Vols hope they can live up to expectations after struggling on offense against the Mountaineers despite having nine of 11 starters back. They trailed 13-3 and only tied the game on a 67-yard scoring pass with 10:30 left in regulation. It was their only touchdown before the overtime.You look around the country and see all the upsets and kind of the way games went throughout the country, its good to know we got a win, said Vols linebacker Jalen Reeves-Maybin, who was ejected after a targeting call in the first quarter. We know we didnt play our best, we didnt play up to our standard, but like (defensive coordinator) coach (Bob) Shoop says, youve got to play both good and clutch. They work hand in hand. We came up clutch in the end and found a way to win the game.Now, Tennessee and Virginia Tech are focused on the long anticipated matchup that is being billed as the Battle at Bristol, a game first discussed in 1997 and that is expected o draw a crowd of 155,000 or more to BBristol Motor Speedway.ddddddddddddThe Hokies, who fumbled the ball away four times against the Flames, know turnovers are one area they definitely need to tighten up.We cant make some of the same mistakes we did this past weekend against Tennessee, running back Sam Rogers said. Theyre going to take advantage of it, so prepare the same way but know the stakes are a little higher.Two of the fumbles were by quarterback Jerod Evans, a transfer from Trinity Valley Community College. He also threw four touchdown passes, but Fuente values ball security and said a repeat performance would likely not lead to a positive result.Evaluating Jerods game, he knows that he missed a few things in there, Fuente said. Obviously, we have to take care of the football. That first day is not pleasing, but some good and some bad probably about, like, every position on the offensive side. We did a few good things, but by and large, just not consistent enough.For the eyebrow-raising Tennessees struggles caused, there were some positives the Vols could take away from their opener. They erased a 13-3 halftime deficit, signaling a reversal of last season when they finished 9-4 and led in each of their losses, three times by at least 13 points.Were still building our identity, but I thought there were a lot of things to really build upon from Thursday night when you watch the video, coach Butch Jones said. At the end of the game we found a way to win a football game. To me, that talks about perseverance, resiliency and finding a way to win football games.But I think we all know we have to continue to move forward and make great, great significant progress from Week One to Week Two.---AP sports writer Steve Megargee contributed from Knoxville, Tennessee---The APs college football page: http://collegefootball.ap.org---Follow Hank on Twitter: www.twitter.com/hankkurzjr ' ' '
