The Winnipeg Goldeyes were firing on all cylinders on Sunday afternoon. The Goldeyes (39-23) took the rubber match of their series against the Kansas City T-Bones (30-32) by a score of 9-3 in front of 4,301 at CommunityAmerica Ballpark in Kansas City. Winnipegs starter Nick Hernandez was strong on the mound and earned the win. He worked seven and two-thirds innings and his only real blunder came in the seventh when he gave up three runs on four hits. Hernandez set the T-Bones down in order in five innings, had five strikeouts and gave up no walks. "Nick was throwing all of his pitches for strikes, and he kept the T-Bones batters off balance," said Goldeyes Pitching Coach Jamie Vermilyea on the Jewel 101 Post-Game Show. "He was getting strike one on pretty much everybody, and when you get a head of batters you can dictate how each at bat goes." The Goldeyes bats that were swinging well on Saturday night continued to be lively on Sunday. Six Fish batters had multiple hits, and three had multiple RBI. The Goldeyes scored in five different innings. "We started scoring early and often, and that takes a lot of pressure off your pitchers," said Vermilyea. It would all start in the top of the first, as the Goldeyes would take a three-run early lead on five hits. After being sat down in order in the second the Goldeyes came back looking for more in the third. After Tyler Kuhn got on base on a single, Donnie Webb would step up three batters later and hit a two-run home run to extend the Goldeyes lead to five. The next inning the Fish would produce two more runs on a home run from Josh Mazzola. In the fifth Webb would come around to score his second run of the game on a RBI single from Reggie Abercrombie. Two innings later the Goldeyes would tack on their ninth run of the game. Jake Blackwood got on base on a single and then was driven in by Abercrombie, giving Abercrombie his third RBI of the game. "Hes an RBI guy for us," said Vermilyea of Abercrombie, "thats why we got him. Today, he put the ball in play and when you do that good things are going to happen." The T-Bones would get too little too late in response. Going into the bottom of the eighth the home team had only two hits, but in the inning they would hit four singles and score three runs. Cephas Howard would come to the mound in relief of Hernandez in the bottom of the eighth, and he did his job, putting out Danny Richar to end the inning. Taylor Sewitt would finish the game for the Goldeyes, as he would pitch a scoreless, 1-2-3 ninth inning to secure the win. The Goldeyes now travel home to take on the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks in a three-game series that goes Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, with all three games starting at 7 p.m. Shoes Canada Cheap .

The 27-year-old Niskanen, the more offensive-minded of the pair of defencemen joining the Capitals, got a $40.25 million, seven-year contract. "Its a very big commitment from Washington. Thats no small thing. Youre talking a seven-year commitment for a very substantial amount of money," said Niskanen, who got married Saturday. "Im excited for that challenge." The 33-year-old Orpik, more of a stay-at-home blueliner who had spent his entire career with the Penguins, was given a $27.5 million, five-year package. "Ive got to be honest: Up until this year, I never really envisioned myself leaving Pittsburgh. As everyone knows, theres been a lot of changes there. It really was a perfect time," Orpik said. "The past year, there was such strong expectations for the team, both internally and externally, and I think we had a really tough time handling those expectations." The Capitals got off to a fast start on the first day of NHL free agency, also adding Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Justin Peters on a $1.9 million, two-year deal, while re-signing centre Michael Latta to a $1.15 million, two-year contract. Last season, three-time NHL MVP Ovechkin and the Capitals missed the playoffs for the first time in seven years, leading ownership to make changes. George McPhees contract was not renewed after he spent 17 seasons as the teams GM, while Adam Oates was fired with a year left on his three-season deal. MacLellan was promoted from assistant general manager to replace McPhee, while Barry Trotz was hired as the new coach. Washington also has added assistant coach Todd&nnbsp;Reirden, who was hired by the Capitals after the Penguins fired him last week.dddddddddddd. "Hes been huge," Niskanen said. "Todd helps young defencemen get better." And in one more Penguins-to-Capitals transaction Tuesday, Washington signed right wing Chris Conner to a one-year, two-way contract. He has 22 goals and 28 assists in 178 NHL games, including 19 with Pittsburgh last season. As for all those people moving from Pittsburgh — which also recently changed its GM and coach — to Washington, Niskanen said: "It would seem odd, wouldnt it? But its professional sports. ... If the Caps call, youve got to listen." Speaking about the Capitals, Orpik said: "Ive played against that group enough to know what the potential of that group can be. ... I think they needed some direction, and I think Barry will provide that." Niskanen, 27, led NHL defencemen with a plus-33 rating last season, when he set career highs with 10 goals and 36 assists. The 6-foot, 209-pound defenceman has 35 goals, 132 assists and 266 penalty minutes in 491 career NHL games for Pittsburgh and Dallas. The 6-foot-2, 219-pound Orpik has 13 goals, 119 assists and 734 penalty minutes in 703 career games. He is a two-time U.S. Olympian and was an alternate captain for the Penguins since 2008. The 27-year-old Peters went 7-9-4 with a 2.50 goals-against average and a .919 save percentage for the Carolina Hurricanes last season. "When the head coach on the team looks you in the eye and tell you he wants you to be there, that goes a long way," Peters said. He said that he wasnt told how hell be used with the Capitals — strictly as a No. 2 behind Braden Holtby, or splitting time in the top goalie spot — but added that he thinks it will "work itself out." ___ AP Sports Writer Joseph White contributed to this report.
