Tampa Bay netted back-to-back power-play goals to go ahead for good and break a 1-for-18 skid with the man advantage. Brayden Point opened the scoring 11:23 into the contest, three minutes before Ondrej Palat (AHN\u2019-dray pah-LAHT\u2019) made it 2-0. Nikita Kucherov (KOO\u2019-cheh-rahv) and Victor Hedman set up both power-play goals.<\/p>\n<p>Kevin Shattenkirk provided the game-winner at the 15:16 mark of the opening period.<\/p>\n<p>Goals by Joe Pavelski and Mattias Janmark got Dallas within 3-2, but Andrei Vasilevskiy (va-sih-LEHV\u2019-skee) shut the door over the final 14 1\/2 minutes to secure the victory for the Lightning.<\/p>\n<p>Game 3 is Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>MLB-SCHEDULE<\/p>\n<p>Indians top Pale Hose<\/p>\n<p>UNDATED (AP) \u2014 The Cleveland Indians have moved closer to an American League playoff berth while stalling the Chicago White Sox\u2019s charge to an AL Central title.<\/p>\n<p>Carlos Santana\u2019s two-run blast snapped a tie and Jos\u00e9 Ram\u00edrez homered again as the Indians downed the White Sox, 7-4. Ramirez has homered five times in his last five games, giving him 16 for the season.<\/p>\n<p>Cleveland wasted a 4-0 lead in the fifth inning before reducing their magic number to one for a postseason berth.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere around the majors:<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Marco Gonzales fired eight shutout innings and Evan White broke the game open with a three-run homer in the seventh inning to guide the Mariners to a 6-1 win over the Astros. Seattle\u2019s victory clinched the AL West title for Oakland, ending Houston\u2019s three-year run atop the division.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 The Rays\u2019 magic number is one for clinching the AL East after Nate Lowe hit a solo homer to put Tampa Bay ahead 2-0 in a 2-1 win against the Mets. New York wasted a stellar performance by Jacob deGrom, who struck out 14 over seven innings.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Rookie Alejandro Kirk fell a triple shy of the cycle while collecting four hits in the Blue Jays\u2019 11-5 rout of the Yankees. Randal Grichuk (GRIH\u2019-chuhk) hit is first homer since Aug. 28 and drove in two runs as Toronto dropped New York 1 1\/2 games behind Minnesota for home field in the wild-card round.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 The Cubs were 5-0 winners over the Pirates as Jon Lester scattered four hits over six innings of his first victory since Aug. 11. Kyle Schwarber doubled twice and drove in a pair of insurance runs in the eighth inning for Chicago, which finished the game without Kris Bryant because of right lower oblique tightness.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 The Reds are above .500 for the first time since opening day following their eighth victory in nine games, 6-3 over the Brewers. Eugenio (ay-oo-HEH\u2019-nee-oh) Su\u00e1rez hit a two-run homer to back Luis Castillo, who won his fourth straight start by allowing four hits while fanning nine over 6 2\/3 innings.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Maikel (MY\u2019-kehl) Franco furnished the go-ahead, two-run single with two out in the sixth inning of the Royals\u2019 4-1 victory against the Cardinals. The Kansas City bullpen pitched shutout ball from the fourth inning on and ended the Redbirds\u2019 four-game winning streak.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 The Braves fell behind 3-0 before scoring four times in the bottom of the first to beat the Marlins, 5-4. Austin Riley\u2019s two-run double capped the early rally and helped Atlanta creep closer to their third straight NL East title, which the Braves can wrap up by Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Zack Wheeler absorbed his first loss in five decisions this season by allowing two earned runs over 5 2\/3 innings of the Phillies\u2019 5-1 setback against the Nationals. Philadelphia fell back to .500 with its first loss in seven games against the defending champs.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 The Rockies damaged the Giants&#8217; playoff hopes as Elias Diaz laced a two-run single and Kevin Pillar (pee-LAHR&#8217;) smacked a solo homer in Colorado&#8217;s 7-2 victory. German (hehr-MAHN&#8217;) Marquez held San Francisco to a run and five hits over six innings.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Jared Walsh homered for the seventh time in 12 games, a grand slam that highlighted a seven-run fourth in the Angels\u2019 8-5 win over the Rangers. Max Stassi had a two-run single to help Los Angeles win for the 12th time in its last 18 games.<\/p>\n<p>MLB-NEWS<\/p>\n<p>Seeding, not record determines who bats last in World Series<\/p>\n<p>NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 The higher seeded team reaching the World Series will have last at-bats in Games 1 and 2 and if needed Games 6 and 7, not necessarily the team with the best record.<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s change means a No. 1 seed from one league with fewer regular-season wins than a lower seed from the other league would have the \u201chomefield advantage\u201d for the World Series should they both win pennants. In the event both pennant winners have the same seed, regular-season winning percentage would decide which team is \u201chome\u201d for the first two games.<\/p>\n<p>In other baseball news:<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Braves pitcher Cole Hamels is done for the season after telling the team that he didn\u2019t feel like he could get anything on the ball. The left-hander was scheduled to make his second start Tuesday after struggling throughout the year to overcome shoulder and triceps issues.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 The Rockies have shut down third baseman Nolan Arenado (ar-eh-NAH\u2019-doh) for the rest of the regular season because of a sore left shoulder. The loss of the five-time All-Star and seven-time Gold Glove winner is a big blow for a Rockies team trying to hang in the postseason chase after starting 11-3.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Blue Jays closer Ken Giles will undergo Tommy John surgery, ending his season and sending him into free agency on an uncertain note. Giles has no record, a 9.82 ERA, and one save in four appearances this season.<\/p>\n<p>NHL-AWARDS<\/p>\n<p>Draisaitl adds Hart, Lindsay to Art Ross hardware<\/p>\n<p>EDMONTON, Alberta (AP) \u2014 Edmonton Oilers forward Leon Draisaitl (DRY\u2019-sy-tul) has won the Hart Trophy and the Ted Lindsay Award after recording his second consecutive 100-point season.

The Hart Trophy is selected by the Professional Hockey Writers Association, and the Lindsay Award is voted on by members of the NHL Players\u2019 Association.<\/p>\n<p>Colorado center Nathan MacKinnon finished second in the Hart balloting, just ahead of New York Rangers winger Artemi Panarin (ahr-TEH\u2019-mee pah-NAH\u2019-rihn).<\/p>\n<p>In other NHL Awards:<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Winnipeg\u2019s Connor Hellebuyck (HEH\u2019-leh-buhk) won the Vezina (VEH\u2019-zih-nuh) Trophy as top goaltender.
