BALTIMORE -- The Texas Rangers new-look lineup was no match for a rookie right-hander making his fourth major league start.Dylan Bundy pretty much got the best of Yu Darvish, too.Bundy took a no-hitter into the sixth inning for the second time in a row, and the Baltimore Orioles used a four-homer attack to beat the Rangers 5-1 Tuesday night in a duel between AL division leaders.Facing Texas for the first time as a starter, Bundy allowed one hit and a walk over seven sparkling innings against a potent batting order featuring newcomers Carlos Beltran and Jonathan Lucroy.He threw the ball really well, said Ian Desmond, who drew a fourth-inning walk. Hes stingy. Didnt miss over the plate to me much.Bundy (4-3) outpitched Darvish (2-3), who allowed three homers for only the second time in 90 major league appearances. Pedro Alvarez connected in the fifth and seventh innings, and Adam Jones went deep on an 0-2 pitch in the sixth.Darvish was pulled after Alvarezs second homer made it 3-0, and Matt Wieters greeted reliever Dario Alvarez with a shot to right.Facing the Orioles for the first time since taking the loss in the 2012 wild-card game, Darvish gave up three runs and struck out nine in his seventh start since returning following Tommy John surgery.He made progress, in my opinion, on how he threw the baseball, how he competed and just how he attacked the strike zone, manager Jeff Banister said. He had to pitch almost flawless with what Bundy was doing.Lucroy liked what he saw from Darvish from behind the plate.Yeah, we got on the same page after the first inning, said Lucroy, who was dealt by Milwaukee. He gave us a chance to win. Their guy was a little better.The loss snapped the AL West-leading Rangers four-game winning streak. Playing with Texas for the first time since being obtained Monday in separate trades, Beltran went 0 for 4 with two strikeouts and Lucroy was hitless with a walk but scored the Rangers lone run.Bundy retired the first 10 batters before Desmond walked and was thrown out trying to steal as Beltran struck out. Elvis Andrus ended the rookies no-hit bid with a clean line drive up the middle with two outs in the sixth.Bundy capped his outing with a 1-2-3 seventh, the farthest hes gone in the majors. Facing the team with the ALs best record, the right-hander struck out seven and didnt allow a runner past first base.The seventh was his last inning, regardless, manager Buck Showalter said. That was a pretty good progression for him. He almost got through the sixth inning last time.In his previous outing, Bundy -- the fourth overall pick in the 2011 draft -- retired the first 16 batters against Colorado before giving up three runs in the sixth.Texas closed to 4-1 in the eighth against Brad Brach before Darren ODay struck out Desmond with the bases loaded and two outs. ODay came back in the ninth to earn his third save.It was the second consecutive win for the Orioles following a five-game skid that temporarily dropped them out of first place in the AL East.MILESTONESRangers: Texas run of 14 straight games with a HR ended.Orioles: It was Showalters 518th win as Orioles manager, lifting him out of a tie with Paul Richards and into sole possession of second place on the teams career list.

NBA officials ruled the court unplayable in the Bucks final exhibition game on Oct. 25 because players were slipping, and the game was cancelled midway through the first period. Chris Peace . "It doesnt get any better than that," Giambi said. "Im speechless." The Indians are roaring toward October.

According the Toronto Star, a knee injury will keep Sundin out of the lineup, which includes former teammates Gary Roberts, Darcy Tucker, Tie Domi and Curtis Joseph. Thatcher Szalay .Y. -- Sabres defenceman Tyler Myers had no intention of changing his hard-hitting style before taking part in a disciplinary hearing for his illegal check to New Jersey forward Dainius Zubrus head. Tom Nelson . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season.Mark Walters believes the standard of Scottish Premiership will improve if his former side Rangers return to the top flight. Rangers, who were forced to drop down to Scottish footballs lowest tier in 2012 due to financial difficulties, hold an eight-point lead over second-placed Hibernian with 13 games remaining in the Scottish Championship.Without a doubt it will be great for Scottish football when Rangers get back up to the Premiership, Walters told Sky Sports. They look solid and they look organised. Unfortunately, my former colleague Ally McCoist was unable to get them back in the Premiership but I think Mark Warburton has made them strong enough to get out of the league automatically.Im sure most Celtic fans would say the worst thing that has happened to the Premiership over the last four years is Rangers being out of the game. And thats not only from a financial point of view but also from an atmospheric point of view in the matches.I dont think its been good for Celtic and the standard of the football in the league has also dropped, which was a big criticism before anyway. I think the standard will increase when Rangers go up and hopefully they will be able to recruit some good players of a similar standard to Celtics, and that will help the league get the recognition it deserves. Rangers Kenny Miller was awarded the Ladbrokes Championship Player of the Month for January as he scored five goals in five games.dddddddddddd Walters, who spent three-and-a-half seasons at Ibrox during the late eighties and early nineties, was speaking at the British Ethnic Diversity Sports Awards, hosted by Sporting Equals at Londons Grosvenor House hotel.I love these awards particularly because they are a great vehicle for coaches from the BME (Black Minority Ethnic) community to move forward, Walters said.When people from those communities come to awards like these it helps them realise there is a way forward for them, not only to get qualified, but also to maybe get a job in football which is fantastic.
