PITTSBURGH -- Ryan Vogelsongs resilient return from the facial fractures that cost him two months in the middle of the season is remarkable.The veteran pitchers stuff at the moment, however, is not. And the 39-year-old knows it.The Chicago Cubs pushed Vogelsong around for five choppy innings and Pittsburghs ninth-inning rally fell short on Tuesday night in a 6-4 loss.Pittsburgh was eliminated from postseason contention when San Francisco won later Tuesday, ending a run of three-straight playoff appearances.Vogelsong (3-7) struggled with his command, giving up four hits, walking five and hitting a batter. He threw just 51 of his 102 pitches for strikes and fell to 0-3 with a 9.55 ERA this month, a downturn thats coincided with his teams fade out of playoff contention.Just an unacceptable start, really, Vogelsong said. Just no excuses. Unacceptable.Vogelsong managed to get out of a two-on, two-out situation in the first but couldnt in the second. Two walks and a hit batter loaded the bases before Chris Coghlan sent an offering off the wall in right-center to clear them to give the Cubs the lead. Chicago won for the seventh time in its last eight games to improve to 101-56, the clubs highest victory total since it won 104 games in 1910.Much of that success has come against the Pirates. A year after the two reached the postseason as wild cards, Chicago is 14-3 against the Pirates this season, outscoring them 109-64 in the process.Dexter Fowler added an RBI double for Chicago. Lackey (11-8) worked around five hits and three walks to win his last regular season start.Felix Pena recorded the final two outs for his first career save after Andrew McCutchen hit a two-run single off Justin Grimm to get the Pirates within two. Pena struck out Sean Rodriguez with the bases loaded to end it.Chicago manager Joe Maddon is experimenting with his lineup over the seasons final week with the Cubs already assured of home-field advantage in the NL playoffs. That means plenty of playing time for Coghlan, who has been mired in a season-long slump but is hitting .423 (11 of 26) since Sept. 16.Lackey made sure the early lead stood, though not without some shaky moments. He needed a double play to thwart a potentially big inning in the second and his defense bailed him out when Jordy Mercers line drive with the bases loaded in the fourth went straight to second baseman Munenori Kawasaki, who flipped to second to double off Rodriguez.The Pirates went 2 for 13 with runners in scoring position -- both hits coming in the ninth -- and left 11 men on base.NO Ks FOR NICASIOPittsburgh reliever Juan Nicasio gave up two runs in the ninth and failed to record a strikeout for the first time in 34 appearances, ending his club-record streak.TRAINERS ROOMPirates: LF Starling Marte remained out of the starting lineup with back stiffness and grounded out as a pinch-hitter in the fifth. The All-Star has just three plate appearances -- all as a pinch hitter -- since Sept. 5. Theres a chance Marte could get back in the lineup before the series with Chicago ends. Things are moving quickly and Im feeling a lot more better than things were before, Marte said after the game. Right now, Im just submitting to my trainers and what they have me doing and hopefully Ill get back and be able to bounce back as soon as possible.UP NEXT:Cubs: Jake Arrieta (18-7, 2.85 ERA) makes his final start of the regular season. The 2015 Cy Young Award winner is 9-1 with a 1.46 ERA in 12 career starts against the Pirates.Pirates: Rookie Jameson Taillon (4-4, 3.49) faces the Cubs for the second time this season. Chicago touched him for four runs in four innings of a 10-5 loss on June 19. Foyesade Oluokun Jersey . LOUIS -- Roman Polak was celebrating even before Alexander Steen scored the winning goal in Saturdays 4-2 win over the Carolina Hurricanes. Falcons Jerseys Outlet . All of the scoring came in the final 20:04. Lucic scored on a power play at 15:46 of the third period, when he tipped a shot over Stars goalie Kari Lehtonen for a 3-1 lead. http://www.cheapfalconsjerseyschina.com/ . After a replay, the winner will meet Sunderland in the quarterfinals. Sagbo did well to control Sone Alukos right cross and fire past Brighton goalkeeper Peter Brezovan. Aluko was making his first start in four months after recovering from an Achilles injury. Wholesale Falcons Jerseys . -- Stanford squashed Oregons national championship hopes again, schooling the Ducks in power football. Isaiah Oliver Jersey .875,000, avoiding arbitration. Clippards deal Monday means all eight Nationals players who filed for arbitration wound up settling before a hearing. MILWAUKEE -- Following a blowout loss to the Bucks on Tuesday in a game during which J.R. Smith allowed a wide-open dunk because he was busy greeting a Milwaukee player on the sidelines while the ball was in play, the Cleveland Cavaliers guard pleaded ignorance when asked about the mistake.I wasnt even paying attention, Smith said of his hug with Jason Terry with 2:57 remaining in the second quarter that left Tony Snell with an uncontested path to the basket. I dont even remember that.The bucket gave the Bucks a 53-50 lead en route to their eventual 118-101 victory, snapping a four-game win streak for the now 13-3 Cavs.The blunder certainly wasnt the main reason Cleveland lost -- it can blame its season-high 20 turnovers leading to 22 Milwaukee points and the 68 points in the paint it gave up -- yet Smith maintained his charade of selective amnesia.What play are you talking about? Smith said when a reporter continued to ask him about the clip that had gone viral even before the game ended.When the reporter described the play in detail, Smith replied, I didnt even know I was in the game. My bad.During the interview, Smith wore a ski mask-style cover over his face, only making his answers more bizarre.Its my alter ego, Smith said. Its a gift from Ohio State, so I figure why not?Smith got the hood during the Cavs trip to the Michigan-Ohio State football game over the weekend.He was then asked if his alter ego had a name.Yeah, he said.What is it?I cant tell you, Smith said, as LeBron James chuckled while dressing at the locker next to him, causing Smith to laugh, as well.Cavs coach Tyronn Lue was in a far less cheery mood after what was, unmistakably, his teams worst loss of the season.I just didnt like that we didnt match their physicality, Lue said after Cleveland saw an early 14-point lead turn into a double-digit defeat. I thought they were physical from 1 through 5. They were physical, they played harder than we did and thats what happens. You give up 68 points in the paint, you dont get back in transition and this team scored 118 points with only seven 3s. So, 68 points in the paint -- we told them we had to protect the paint tonight, and we just didnt do it.Things got so bad for the Cavs in the third quarter that Lue employed one of his boldest moves since becoming coach at midseason last year: He benched his entire lineup en masse to bring in five reserve players as subbstitutes.ddddddddddddI just wanted to do it, Lue said of taking out Kevin Love, Kyrie Irving, Tristan Thompson, Iman Shumpert and James and replacing them with Chris Andersen, DeAndre Liggins, Mike Dunleavy, Jordan McRae and James Jones.Pressed for his reasoning, Lue replied, I just didnt like how we played, how we were playing.Cleveland trailed by 11 when Lue made the move with 3:49 remaining in the third. By the end of the period, the Bucks lead had ballooned to 18.Hes our coach, and if he felt like we werent giving the effort we needed to do, then he has the right to do that, James said. Our guys that came in, they played as well as they could, for sure.Lue went back to his starters with 10:56 left in the fourth and Cleveland down 15, but the coach pulled them back out for good with 6:03 remaining, when the Bucks pushed their cushion up to 22.Asked whether he saw any change in his top unit after the lineup swap occurred, Lue scoffed, Same results. ... You saw it.While Love did not agree with a reporter suggesting Lue was sending a message with the move, the team accepted it, no matter Lues motivation.Probably if I was a coach, I probably would have done the same thing, Irving said. Even though the point disparity wasnt as big in the point of the game, but, I mean, we needed it. They were getting some easy looks, and you obviously know the coaches around the league -- probably one coach, in [Gregg] Popovich, [would] do it with his starting five and take them out just to prove a point.I think that going forward, we dont want it to happen again and well do our best to not make it happen again. So as leaders of the team -- myself, LeBron, Kevin -- in picking up the guys, we got to lead this charge; and going forward, well be better.James was ready to leave the loss in Milwaukee and focus on the back-to-back against the?LA Clippers?and Chicago Bulls awaiting the Cavs to finish the week.Move on, James said, as he pretended to crumple up a piece of paper and throw it in the trash. Move on, move on.[In an] 82-game season, youre going to have one or two of these. I was looking at the scores after the game, and I see San Antonio is losing at home to Orlando right now. I know Pop is not happy about that. You just crumple it up and move on to the next.
