KEARNS, Utah -- Canadas Marianne St-Gelais won the womens 500 meters at the ISU World Cup short-track speedskating event Sunday to close the weekend with three medals.St-Gelais finished the 500 in 43.059 seconds, was second in the 1,500 on Saturday and was a member of Canadas bronze- medal 3,000 relay team Sunday. She was the benefactor of a crash involving Great Britains Elise Christie, who set the world record in the quarterfinals and was leading before sliding into the wall and getting her right skate caught in the padding. Christie was helped to the locker room afterward.You dont want to win because of that, but you have to be aware because its short track, said St-Gelais, who has three Olympic silver medals. You have to be smart. Theres so many things you have to think about while youre skating. ... Its a gold, but its not the way I wanted to have the gold, but its still a gold.Im really happy. Im confident. We worked so hard this summer. ... I still want to have my gold medal at the Olympics, so Im working hard for that.The weekend event finished with five world records and 49 national records.South Koreas Choi Minjeong was second in the 500 in 43.244, followed by Chinas Kexin Fan (43.249).Sjinkie Knegt of the Netherlands broke the mens world record in the 1,500 at 2:07.943.

All three joined Choi on the winning 3,000 relay team (4:05.149). Korea set the world record in the relay at 4:04.222 in the semifinal round Saturday.American Katherine Reutter was in position to medal in the 1,500, but slipped and finished sixth in 2:30.695.I feel like Im right below the threshold, said Reutter, the two-time Olympic medalist that came out of retirement this year. I dont know what it is thats got to click, but I know when I get there, the games going to change. ... I know that moment is coming. I just have to take my medicine and wait for it to get there.Im a little sad about today. Going into it I thought I was fifth last weekend, I was fifth yesterday and Ill be OK if Im fifth today. Id love to be fourth. Id really love a medal. But incremental steps are OK. To actually get sixth, that hurt my feelings. That is what it is. ... I am very satisfied with where I am. ... Losing hurts, but we can learn from it and stay strong afterward.Kazakhstans Abzal Azhgaliyev won the mens 500 in 40.373.

Texas Rangers Pro Shop .com) - The game was all punts and field goals before Kodi Whitfields catch. SAN DIEGO -- Robbie Ray could be getting untracked.The Arizona Diamondbacks certainly hope thats the case.Over his last two starts, the 24-year-old left-hander has allowed one earned run in 12 innings -- a vast improvement over his 6-11 season with a 4.47 earned run average.Hes recently been the pitcher we know he can be, Arizona manager Chip Hale said.Saturday night at Petco Park, Ray will be paired against recycled Padres veteran Clayton Richard in a match of left-handers as the four-game series between the National League Wests two worst teams continues.Richard, 32, will be making his fourth appearance and second start with the Padres since signing for a second tour with the club on Aug. 6 as a free agent. Richard, who previously played with the Padres between 2009 and 2013, is 0-1 with the Padres with a 4.27 ERA over 6 1/3 innings.Richards first start for the Padres came against the New York Mets last Sunday at CitiField. He gave up two runs -- on a pair of solo homers -- over five innings to suffer the loss. He allowed three hits and three walks with three strikeouts.The addition of Richard to a young rotation helps Padres manager Andy Green in several areas.First, it enabled the Padres to go to a six-man rotation at least through next week to assist in limiting the innings of several other young starters. And it has added a veteran presence to the rotation.Clayton has already influenced some of our younger pitchers, said Green. I love the way he handles himself. I think hes a great example not only on the day he pitches but in between starts, the way he prepares. Handling the days in between starts is almost as critical as the way you pitch.ddddddddddddThe Padres are looking to get Christian Friedrich out of the rotation within the next two weeks to limit his innings. They also hope to have Tyson Ross returning in September. Ross, who has not pitched since injuring his shoulder on Opening Day, is scheduled to face live hitters for the second time in a week Saturday. If all goes as planned, Ross will start a rehab assignment next week.I dont think we need to extend him out that far because he might be throwing only three or four innings in several September starts, said Green. But having Ross back and Richard will give us the flexibility to take some innings off some of the other younger starters.Ray, meanwhile, had a 5-12 won-loss record as a rookie in 2015 despite posting the fourth-lowest ERA by a rookie starter in Diamondbacks history. His two-season won-loss record is 11-23.Thats unfortunate and misleading, said Hale of Rays record. Hes pitched better than that. Over the last two seasons, we havent helped him as much as we could have.Ray will be looking for his first road win since June 17 in Philadelphia. He will be making his second career start against the Padres. He suffered the loss on June 26, 2015 at Petco Park despite allowing two runs over six innings.With two wins in the first two games of the series, the Padres have moved two games ahead of the Diamondbacks in the battle to avoid the cellar in the National League West.
