(SportsNetwork.com) - Coming off only their second loss in 11 games, the San Jose Sharks seek to bounce back on Saturday night as they visit the Los Angeles Kings. The Sharks had a five-game winning streak snapped with Mondays 3-2 overtime setback to the Anaheim Ducks. Joe Pavelski and Melker Karlsson had third- period goals to put San Jose ahead, but Anaheim tied the game later in the frame before getting a winner from Ryan Kesler at the 58-second mark of overtime. Antti Niemi made 29 saves in defeat. To win in this building is tough, Sharks head coach Todd McLellan said. I think we have to take some satisfaction that we came from behind in the third. Pavelskis goal was the 207th of his career, passing Owen Nolan for second place on the clubs all-time goal-scoring list, while Karlsson netted his first NHL goal in his sixth career game. Sharks forward John Scott will begin a four-game suspension tonight for hitting Ducks forward Tim Jackman in the face during the second period of Mondays game. Scott appeared to catch Jackman with both his glove and the butt end of his stick, with the Anaheim winger injured on the play. Scott isnt eligible to return to action until Jan. 5. The Kings also lost their last game before the Christmas break, falling 4-3 in overtime to the Calgary Flames. But while the Sharks rallied to at one point take the lead in their last game, the Kings failed to hold a 3-0 advantage versus the Flames. Calgarys Johnny Gaudreau scored twice in the third period with his goaltender pulled to tie the game, and Mark Giordano had the winner with 53 seconds left in overtime. Marian Gaborik, Jamie McBain, and Trevor Lewis each scored for the Kings, who had their two-game win streak come to an end and have lost six of past nine. Jonathan Quick made 24 saves. The score was not a good indication of the game, Kings head coach Darryl Sutter said. Halfway through the game they had a lot more desperation than our team. The Kings fell to 13-4-2 at home despite Gaborik extending his goal-scoring streak to five straight games. He has seven goals over that time, with the last five coming on the power play. Los Angeles is 7-for-13 on the man advantage over the past three games. Anze Kopitar assisted on Gaboriks goal and has logged nine helpers and 10 points over his past four games. The Kings lost to the Sharks 4-0 in Los Angeles on Oct. 8 in the first of five meetings this season. That snapped San Joses four-game series road losing streak and was only its second victory in its past 10 trips to Los Angeles. Quick is 11-5-5 with a 2.56 goals against average and .909 save percentage in 22 games versus the Sharks, while Niemi has gone 13-6-3 with a 2.34 GAA and .925 save percentage in 23 meetings.

With Thursday nights loss at Baltimore coupled with the Yankees win at Seattle, the Jays lead atop the division is down to three-and-a-half games on the Os and the Yanks. Its way too early to get a read on how this thing might shake down by the end of September, but it would only seem fitting if on the 25th anniversary of Rogers Center the Blue Jays and Orioles would be fighting it out for first. They meet in the final three games of the regular season at the Dome on September 26-28. The Blue Jays and Orioles have a bit of history in these kinds of things. In 1983, the Blue Jays had their first ever winning season in their seventh year of existence. With Bobby Cox at the helm, they were actually in first place in the American League East at the All-Star game by one game on Baltimore. The Jays record was 43-33 when they were rained out on July 4, the day before the All-Star break. Baltimore was 42-34 through the 4th of July. Baltimore took off in the second half, though, and won the division with a 98-64 record and with Cal Ripken Jr. being named the Most Valuable Player. The Orioles felt 1983 was destined to be their year, since they had finished just one game back of division leading Milwaukee the year before. As for the Jays, they won their first division title two years later in 1985. Flash forward to 1989, the year Rogers Centre opened. The Blue Jays chalked up a couple of firsts that season. On April 16, Kelly Gruber became the first Blue Jays player to hit for the cycle, when he turned the trick against Kansas City in a 15-8 Jays victory. On June 9 at Fenway, the Jays put together the most incredible comeback in franchise history. Down 10-0 to the Red Sox, they battled all the way back, thanks in large part to an Ernie Whitt grand slam and sent the game into extra innings. Then, Junior Felix slugged the game winning homer in a 13-11 victory in the 12th inning. Heading into the final weekend of the regular season, the Jays held a one-game lead on the Orioles heading into a three game series at Rogers Center. On Friday night, it was a classic pitchers duel. Lefty Jeff Ballard started for the Orioles and Todd Stottlemyer for the Jays. But the real hero on this night for the Jays was reliever Jim Acker, who took over in the 6th inning and pitched four shutout frames giving up only two hits. The Jays ultimately pulled out a 2-1 victory in 11 innings to clinch at least a tie for the division crown. On Saturday, it appeared for the better part of the game that the Orioles were going to force a meaningful game on Sunday. They got Jimmy Key out of the game in four innings and took a 3-1 lead to the bottom of the 8th.dddddddddddd The Jays, who only had four hits on the day, bunched a couple in the bottom of the 8th and scored three runs to ultimately win it 4-3 to wrap up their second division title. For the second day in a row, the bullpen saved the day. 30-year-old right hander Frank Wills pitched four innings of one-hit relief, and then Tom Henke, who got his eigth win in relief on Friday, picked up his 20th save in this one. So the Jays, who started the season at Exhibition Stadium and got off to a 12-24 start under Jimy Williams, finished the season winning the East under Cito Gaston. The Jays finished the 1989 season with 89 victories -- the same number as they did in 1983 when they wound up fourth -- nine games behind the division-winning Orioles. So, if the Jays and Orioles meet on the final weekend of this season, it will be a sort of historical rubber match or completion of the trilogy 25 years after Rogers Center opened. Just when you think the Yankees might be slipping out of contention, they turn around and win three straight at Seattle. Not only that, Derek Jeter is finally starting to hit; banging out seven hits in the series. Whats even more impressive is the Yankees may have uncovered a diamond in the rough in 24-year-old right hander Chase Whitley. A 15th round draft pick in 2010, hes 2-0 with a 2.41 ERA with the "big club." He has not walked a batter in the last 114 men he has faced. What are the odds that the hottest rookie pitcher in the National League would also be named Chase? 26-year-old right hander Chase Anderson has won all five of his starts for Arizona and has a 3.14 ERA. He doesnt walk too many either; just seven, in fact, to 22 strike outs. He was a 9th round pick in 2009. The Tigers Max Scherzer won his eigth game Thursday night in an 8-2 victory at Chicago over the White Sox. But the thing that blew me away was that it was the first complete game of Scherzers career. We used to take CGs for granted, but it took Scherzer, who already has a Cy Young Award to his credit, until his 179th career start to get it done. That was the longest stretch any starter had gone without a complete game since 1900. The two active pitchers who had gone the longest now without a complete game, according to ESPN, are Scherzers teammate Rick Porcello (146 starts) and the Orioles Bud Norris (139 starts). There could be some history made Friday night at Philadelphia. Phils shortstop Jimmy Rollins needs only two more hits to break Hall of Famer Mike Schmidts franchise record of 2,234 hits. Jake Arrieta will be on the mound for the Cubs.
