He admits to letting his teammates down but it seems Steven Mays lengthy suspension earlier this year isnt being held against him.The Gold Coast defender copped a five-match AFL ban after a high bump on Brisbanes Stefan Martin during the round-three derby between the Queensland clubs.Mays subsequent absence from the team coincided with a run of defeats that cruelled any hope of an inaugural finals campaign for the Suns.If May was worried however that his actions damaged his standing at the club, those doubts were laid to rest last week when he was nominated as captain for Saturdays clash with Fremantle.The imposing defender led the Suns to an impressive victory over the Dockers and says any concern he had to prove himself to teammates were surely at an end.A lot of people were saying it was undisciplined or selfish what I did but obviously my teammates and my coaches dont feel the same way because they wouldnt have appointed me captain on the weekend, May said.Thats a positive I can take away from it.With captain Gary Ablett sidelined for the remainder of the year due to shoulder surgery, the Suns leadership is set to rotate between May and forward Tom Lynch until the end of the season.Some have even suggested Ablett should relinquish the club captaincy to focus on his physical fitness but May says if that happens he wont be actively pursuing the job fulltime.To be captain isnt one of my goals, he said.If something like that was to pop up and the team wanted or needed me to step up, I would definitely consider it but its not something Ive got pencilled in.

Walker had been 4 for 28 against Arrieta, including the postseason.He just wasnt throwing as many strikes early in the count as Ive been accustomed to facing him, Walker said. When youre 1-0, 2-1 with everybody, it makes it difficult to use that entire arsenal.With the score 2-2 in the fourth and runners at first and second, dArnaud popped a ball into short center field, in the middle of a triangle formed by center fielder Jason Heyward, second baseman Javier Baez and shortstop Addison Russell.dddddddddddd. On a full run toward the outfield and with his back to home plate, Baez reached up with his right, bare hand, but the ball glanced off it and fell to the ground as two runs scored. Baez had just entered the game at second base.Colon (7-4) allowed two runs and four hits in six innings, and Ben Zobrist homered off Erik Goeddel in the seventh.Addison Reed struck out Kris Bryant to end the seventh with the potential tying run on second, and then struck out the side in the eighth after Rizzos leadoff single.

When Baez was called out leading off the ninth, he held out both arms, and Maddon yelled from the dugout.The amorphic strike zone tonight was really difficult for both sides, Maddon said.CUBS ROTATIONRight-hander Adam Warren is to start Wednesday against Cincinnati at Wrigley Field, following Kyle Hendricks and John Lackey. Maddon said Warren could get a start after the All-Star break but because of a July 21 off day, it was unlikely he would go with a six-man rotation two turns in a row.TRAINERS ROOMCubs: RF Chris Coghlan left after three innings because of right ribcage soreness.UP NEXTLHP Jon Lester (9-3) is to start Sundays series final for the Cubs and RHP Noah Syndergaard (8-3) for the Mets.
