MILWAUKEE -- Two potential future aces will be on display when the Pittsburgh Pirates and Milwaukee Brewers continue their four-game series on Saturday evening at Miller Park.Right-hander Jamison Tallion has looked every bit as good as advertised through the first 12 starts of his career. Hes coming off one of his best outings of the season, having struck out a career-high eight batters while holding the Astros to two ruuns, four hits and a walk in eight innings.Tallion leaned on his two-seam fastball in that outing.I was getting more swing and misses, more ground balls and better pitch efficiency when I throw the two-seam (fastball), Taillon said. Whereas, I dont get away with mistakes when I throw the four-seam. (The coaches) told me try it out, and I just ran with it.It was the third time that Tallion worked eight innings this season. For the year, he has thrown 74 for the Pirates on top of 61 2/3 for Triple-A Indianapolis earlier this season.His career high for innings worked came in 2013 when he threw 147 1/3, but as of now, the Pirates dont seem inclined to worry about his workload.Were playing it by ear, Taillon told a Pittsburgh radio station earlier this week. If there was one perfect way to do it, we would be doing it, but I think we have to really go off of what were seeing and what were feeling. I have to be honest with them and tell them how Im feeling, how Im recovering between starts. I think theres going to be some two-way communication back and forth.As far as Ive been told, Im good to pitch.Milwaukee will turn to right-hander Jimmy Nelson, who snapped a six-game losing streak his last time out by holding the Rockies to two runs despite seven hits in six innings.During his losing streak, Nelson had posted an 8.04 ERA.I think this was just kind of the next step in all that, Brewers manager Craig Counsell said. The big thing was that he threw a ton of strikes tonight -- 71 strikes in 95 pitches. He was pounding the zone very well tonight. He put them in swing mode a little bit because of that. He did a nice job, especially after the first two innings. The next four innings he did a really good job. He pitched well.Nelsons strike-to-ball ratio resulted in no walks -- something Nelson hadnt done all season, but he was happiest about working six full innings for the first time since July 16.I feel like Ive been doing five-and-dies for friggin two or three months, Nelson said. It definitely was nice. More so for the bullpen guys. I honestly felt really good, like I could have gone back out there. With the tempo and effort of my delivery, I felt like I didnt really get tired out there. Even later in the game, my pitches didnt drift up in the zone or anything like that.Manuel Neuer Jersey .J. -- New York Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz will miss the rest of the season after having surgery on his left knee. Mats Hummels Jersey . -- Matt Ryan needed one of the best games of his career to lead the Falcons and their depleted offence out of their three-game losing streak last week. http://www.germanysoccerpro.com/Jonas-Hector-Germany-Jersey/ . Uniteds eighth defeat of a wretched campaign means Liverpool, which currently occupies the fourth and final Champions League place, could go nine points clear of its fierce rival by beating West Bromwich Albion on Sunday. Charlie Adam scored both of Stokes goals at Britannia Stadium either side of Robin van Persies equalizer, with a miserable day for seventh-place United capped by first-half injuries to centre halves Jonny Evans and Phil Jones that forced them off. Julian Brandt Jersey . Down by seven with 90 seconds left in regulation, thats where they looked comfortable. Ilkay Gundogan Jersey . The 26-year-old Ireland striker, who has four goals this season, has signed a three-and-a-half year contract with his new club.SKOPJE, Macedonia -- American basketball player Cameron Moore, who joined Macedonian team AV Ohrid this week, died suddenly during his first practice session, local authorities said Wednesday.The teams legal representative, Ivo Markoski, told The Associated Press that the 25-year-old Moore arrived late Monday from Venice, Italy. He said the player had been in Ohrid, a tourist resort town in southern Macedonia, for a matter of hours before dying Tuesday.This is a tragedy. We had no time even to meet him properly, Markoski said. He was in Ohrid for only 24 hours. We let him rest after arrival and the tragedy occurred on the very first day of training.Markoski said Moore had signed a preliminary deal with the Ohrid team and had just begun medical tests. An official deal with the team was to be signed after the medical tests were completed.Ohrid police spokesman Stefan Dimeski confirmed an American basketball player died suddenly late Tuesday, but did not release his identity citing an ongoing forensic investigation into the death. Dimeski said the player collapsed during practice and was rushed to the hospital but was pronounced dead on arrival.More details would be available after the forensics examination, he said.(We have) never experienced such a tragedy. We are totally shaken by his death, said AV Ohriid team manager Marijan Boshalevski, who said Moore collapsed during the last 15 minutes of practice.ddddddddddddoore, who went to high school in San Antonio, Texas, was a forward for the University of Alabama-Birmingham, finishing his career ranked second in school history in double-doubles (28) and blocked shots (137), and fourth in total rebounds (747).The UAB family mourns the loss of an outstanding human being whose life was taken away too soon, UAB Mens Basketball Head Coach Robert Ehsan said in a statement. Cameron Moore was one of the first student-athletes I met when I arrived in Birmingham in 2012, and I could immediately sense his passion for Birmingham and UAB Basketball. He played an integral part in the success of so many great Blazer teams, and I know his legacy will live on through everyone associated with UAB.Moore is one of only three players in school history with more than 1,000 points and 700 rebounds in his career, according to the UAB website.The entire Blazer community lost a remarkable man who meant so much to UAB and the basketball program, UAB Director of Athletics Mark Ingram said. We will keep Cameron and his loved ones in our thoughts and prayers. ' ' '
