Tuscaloosa, AL (SportsNetwork.com) - Derrick Henry scored three touchdowns to help No. 2 Alabama to a 48-14 win over Western Carolina on Saturday. Henry rushed for 92 yards and two touchdowns and added a 9-yard touchdown catch for the Crimson Tide (10-1), who took a break from their SEC schedule with an FCS opponent prior to next weeks Iron Bowl against arch-rival Auburn. Blake Sims was 17-of-25 passing for 222 yards with two touchdowns and an interception in the win. Alabama star wide receiver Amari Cooper left the game with an apparent left knee injury after taking a hard hit in the first quarter. Cooper had three receptions for 46 yards. Chris Black took over in his absence and hauled in six passes for 101 yards. Troy Mitchell threw for 221 yards and two touchdowns to Spearman Robinson for Western Carolina (7-5), which has lost all four meetings with the Crimson Tide. Western Carolina got off to a promising start as Mitchells 2-yard touchdown pass to Robinson capped a nine-play, 75-yard drive on the opening possession of the game. I dont think that we started the game out the way wed hoped to or how we planned, Alabama coach Nick Saban said. We wanted to maintain focus, and I thought the players did a really good job all week of practicing well and preparing for the game. But Alabama, which can clinch a spot in the SEC championship game with a win over Auburn, responded with 17 straight points, though it lost Cooper in the process. On 3rd-and-20, Cooper ran a dig route and caught the ball along the near sideline before racing inside the Catamounts 4 for a 27-yard gain. Cooper, a favorite to win the Biletnikoff Award given to the nations top receiver, took a solid hit to the left knee and limped off the field to the sideline. After receiving attention from medical personnel, Cooper walked into the locker room for further observation. He jogged out to the field moments later, but he still moved with a noticeable limp and did not return. Fellow wide receiver DeAndrew White (hamstring) and running back T.J. Yeldon (ankle) were held out of the lineup due to injury. The Crimson Tide tied the game a play later on Sims 4-yard toss to Cam Sims. Gunnar Raborn, who filled in for Adam Griffith, kicked a 20-yard field goal late in the first and Henrys 10-yard touchdown run early in the second gave the hosts a 17-7 advantage. Following a Henry fumble later in the quarter, Mitchell and Robinson hooked up again for another touchdown that cut the deficit to three. Alabama crushed any hope of an upset victory from the Catamounts with 21 straight points to end the half. Tyren Jones capped a 10-play, 69-yard drive with a 7-yard TD scamper and Henry bolted into the end zone from 23 yards out to make it 31-14 with 3:16 left. Sims threw a 9-yard touchdown pass to Henry with under a minute left to make it 38-14 Jake Coker came on at quarterback to begin the second half and led a 51-yard drive out of the locker room that resulted in a 28-yard field goal by Raborn. Western Carolina drove deep into Alabama territory on its ensuing possession, but a fake field goal attempt on fourth down was unsuccessful. Coker then led another scoring drive, completing a 12-yard touchdown pass to Michael Nysewander to account for the final margin. Coach Sabans built a dynasty, and we got a lot of respect for that, said Catamounts coach Mark Speir. Game Notes Yeldon, White and Griffith were all considered day-to-day throughout the week ...

On paper, it looks a little like Andre the Giant taking on a midget wrestler. It has all the makings of a rout with the Americans adding an eighth win in nine outings of this biennial event. The Yanks have eight players in the top 15 in the world while the Internationals have just one. Jaromir Jagr Jersey .

Especially the back of the bullpen. Jesse Chavez struck out seven and came up an inning short of his first complete game, and the As held on to beat the Chicago White Sox 5-4 on Monday night for their season-high fifth straight win. "We all feed off of each other," Chavez said. "And I think thats what makes a good staff." Chavez (3-1) gave up five hits and walked two for the AL-West leading As, who have outscored opponents 28-8 during the winning streak. The former reliever allowed only solo home runs to Dayan Viciedo and Jose Abreu, whose major-league leading 14th long ball in the ninth chased the right-hander. Josh Donaldson hit a go-ahead, two-run homer in the fifth, and Josh Reddick hit a tying triple in the second off John Danks (3-3) during Oaklands win. Jed Lowrie added a two-run double in the seventh that proved pivotal after the White Sox scored three runs in the ninth and nearly forced extra innings. Left-hander Sean Doolittle recorded the final three outs, striking out pinch-hitter Tyler Flowers and Leury Garcia to strand the tying runner on second. "Didnt want it to get to that point, but thats how it got there," As manager Bob Melvin said. Danks gave up six hits and three runs in six innings, striking out five and walking two. Chicago, which has lost four of five, came up just short and too late. "It wasnt a lack of trying. Sometimes you hit it and its right at people," said White Sox manager Robin Ventura, who was agitated after a 5-1 home loss to Arizona on Sunday, calling it "uninspired" effort. After Abreus homer, Fernando Abad walked Adam Dunn. Then struggling Jim Johnson gave up a double to Viciedo and an RBI single to Alexei Ramirez, setting off another shower of boos. Pinch-hitter Paul Konerkos sacrifice fly sliced Oaklands leead to 5-4 before Doolittle struck out the final two batters for his second save this season.dddddddddddd "I think it was important for me tonight not getting caught up in the moment of trying to get the save and stop the bleeding," Doolittle said. The AL-West leading As, coming off a home sweep of Washington, added another layer of frustration for a Chicago team beginning a nine-game road trip that also stops in Houston and Kansas City. The White Sox spent about eight hours on a plane Sunday night because of storms in Chicago that delayed their flight to the Bay Area, then they played a late game on the West Coast. They still started strong but wasted an opportunity to retake the lead when they advanced runners to second and third on Chavezs wild pitch in the fifth. Conor Gillaspie hit a hard line drive with two outs — but right into centre fielder Craig Gentrys glove. Then came Donaldsons drive in the fifth, lining a 2-0 fastball into the seats in left for his eighth home run. Lowrie added a two-run double off reliever Daniel Webb in the seventh to stretch Oaklands lead to 5-1. Chavez kept inducing quick outs and nearly finished the game himself. He had never completed more than seven innings, which he has done three times this year. Chavez has allowed one earned run or fewer in six of his eight starts this season. The As are a 7-1 when he pitches. "We faced him in the spring. Hes good," Dunn said. :Hes going to be around the strike zone. When a guy has that many pitches, you try to get him early. It didnt work out." NOTES Athletics CF Coco Crisp took swings in batting practice before sitting out for the fifth straight game with a strained neck. He is day to day. ... White Sox LHP Chris Sale, out since April 17 because of a strained muscle near his left elbow, is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment in Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday. ... LHP Drew Pomeranz (2-1, 1.45 ERA) makes his second start for the As opposite Chicagos Scott Carroll on Tuesday.
