DALLAS -- Paul George scored 10 of his game-high 28 points in the third quarter and the Indiana Pacers used a 13-0 run to race past the Dallas Mavericks 98-77
on Friday night in the preseason finale for both teams. Nomar Garciaparra Red Sox Jersey . Centre Roy Hibbert had 14 points and eight rebounds as the Pacers (3-5) closed
preseason play with three consecutive victories. The Mavericks (4-4) were led by
forward Dirk Nowitzki with 14 points and small forward Shawn Marion added 10.
The Pacers trailed 51-43, their largest deficit, early in the third period
before the 13-point run. They never trailed again, and the final margin equaled
their largest lead. Pacers small forward Danny Granger missed his third
consecutive game with a strained calf. Indiana coach Frank Vogel said Grangers
availability for the teams opener on Tuesday at home against Orlando is unclear.
Wade Boggs Authentic Jersey . Others agreeing to deals were pitcher Ryan Cook and outfielders Craig Gentry and Sam Fuld.
Reddick appeared in just 109 games last season because of injuries and slugged
12 homers while driving in 54 runs and batting . Ted Williams Authentic Jersey . But the pitcher overcame an early base-running blunder and gave up one run on seven hits
in six innings to lead the San Francisco Giants to a 7-4 victory over the
Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday night. BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil -- Defying all the
doubters, Costa Rica came through perhaps the toughest group of the World Cup
unbeaten and on top. Costa Rica followed up its wins over Uruguay and Italy by
holding England to a dour 0-0 draw on Tuesday, enough to finish first in Group
D. Quite an achievement for a team that was seen as the rank outsider in the
first ever World Cup group that contained three former champions. "It wasnt the
death group after all -- at least not for us," Costa Rica coach Jorge Luis Pinto
said. He dedicated the qualification to "those who believed in us and those who
didnt." "People started believing after the game against Italy," he added.
Uruguay also advanced from the group after beating Italy 1-0. Costa Rica only
needed a draw to top Group D and played that way, setting up in a defensive
5-3-2 formation against England. The result gives Costa Rica its best World Cup
performance. While Los Ticos reached the knockout stages in 1990, they finished
second in a weaker group. Costa Rica will now play the runner-up in Group C in
the second round. "We will have to keep fighting," Pinto said. "Whatever happens
we are willing to fight." England lost its first two matches to Italy and
Uruguay and was already eliminated. England goes home from Brazil without a win
after striker Daniel Sturridge missed a number of chances Tuesday. But coach Roy
Hodgson thought his team showed spirit against the Costa Ricans, trying to break
down a stubborn defence. "We showed today what a good team we can be," England
coach Roy Hodgson said. "Apart from the first 10 minutes, I thought we
dominated." One of Sturridges best opportunities came in the 65th after a nice
one-two with midfielder Jack Wilshere. But the forwards curling shot from the
right just missed squeezing inside the far post. Costa Rica had started the
match brightly, passing the ball around midfield with ease and making England
chase them around. Forward Joel Campbell had an early chance, but his shot from
inside the area deflected off Gary Cahill and went just wide in the second
minute. Costa Ricas best chance came in the 23rd minute when Celso Borges
curling free kick waas tipped onto the crossbar and out for a corner by England
goalkeeper Ben Foster. Blake Swihart Jersey. But that was about it in terms of attacking for the Costa Ricans and they were happy to absorb England
pressure, especially in the second half. Pinto defended his team defensive
tactics, saying Costa Rica was also out to attack. "Some people said we would
only defend," he said. "No, thats not true. You have seen it. We have been able
to attack as well. That is why we are very proud," With nothing to play for,
Hodgson made nine changes to the England team, fielding a slew of younger
talent, including Adam Lallana, Ross Barkley and Luke Shaw. Englands backup
players looked disjointed in the first half, giving the ball away easily and
finding it difficult to break through Costa Ricas setup. Wilshere made a fine
run down the left in the 12th, setting up Sturridge just outside the area, but
the forwards curling shot just missed wide. Wayne Rooney came on as a substitute
late in the second half and made an instant impact for England. He found space
just outside Costa Ricas area in the 80th, but the backpedalling Costa Rica
goalkeeper Keylor Navas was able to tip it over the bar and out for a corner.
While England showed improvement in the second half, the team just couldnt find
a way a through Costa Ricas rearguard. A hardcore group of about 150 England
fans stayed in the stands long after the final whistle in an otherwise empty
Mineirao Stadium, chanting loudly and jumping up and down. About 25 armed riot
police with shields and batons formed a line behind stewards who were urging
them to leave. Singing "England Till We Die," the fans eventually left the
stands peacefully. ------ Lineups: Costa Rica: Keylor Navas; Giancarlo Gonzalez,
