Arenado’s 28-Game Hit Streak Breaks Rockies Record

Nolan Arenado Colorado RockiesARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Colorado Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado has broken the team record with a 28-game hitting streak.

Arenado had a two-out single in the third inning Thursday night against the Texas Rangers.

The streak is one game longer than teammate Michael Cuddyer’s 27-gamer last season.

Arenado’s streak is the longest for anyone 23 or younger since Albert Pujols had a 30-game run in 2003 when he was 23.

The streak for Arenado began April 9, a week before his 23rd birthday.

Rangers Rebound for 5-0 Win over Rockies

colorado-rockiesARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Prince Fielder homered, Matt Harrison earned his first win of the season and the Texas Rangers beat Colorado 5-0 Thursday night after being overwhelmed by the Rockies the previous three games.

Harrison (1-0) and four relievers combined on a five-hitter, the Rangers’ major league-best seventh shutout. Joakim Soria worked a perfect ninth with two strikeouts.

Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado extended his hitting streak to 28 games with a single in the third. That broke the team record he matched Wednesday night.

Colorado was the only National League team without a shutout loss. The Rockies, whose 22 wins are tied for most in the majors, had 50 hits and outscored the Rangers 29-5 the previous three nights — the first two in Denver before the interleague matchup switched to Texas.

Broncos Select Cornerback Bradley Roby

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — The Denver Broncos have selected All-Big Ten cornerback Bradley Roby with the 31st pick in the NFL draft.

The fourth-year junior joins an already solid group of cornerbacks that includes free agent acquisition Aqib Talib and Chris Harris Jr., who is recovering from a partially torn ACL that required surgery and kept him out of the Super Bowl.

The Broncos jettisoned star cornerback Champ Bailey this offseason.

Roby is the 500th player selected by the Broncos since the inception of the common draft in 1967.

The last player chosen 31st overall by Denver was linebacker Al Wilson, who went on to start 119 games during an eight-year career that included five Pro Bowls.

Rockies 1B Justin Morneau Out with Stiff Neck

Justin Morneau Colorado Rockies BaseballARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Justin Morneau has been scratched from the Colorado Rockies’ lineup because of a stiff neck.

The first baseman had been set to bat sixth Thursday night against the Texas Rangers. Jordan Pacheco, who was in the original lineup at catcher, played first base instead. Michael McKenry was inserted at catcher.

Morneau was hitting .331 with seven home runs and 26 RBIs.

During the 2011 season, Morneau had operations on his neck, left knee and right foot. He missed the second half of the 2010 season because of a concussion and then had a recurrence during the 2011 season after diving for a ball.

No Surprises: Clowney Taken 1st by Texans

Jadeveon Clowney NFL Draft Houston TexansNEW YORK (AP) — The Houston Texans have made South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon (jah-DAY’-vee-ahn) Clowney the first pick in the NFL draft.

Considered a budding NFL star even when he was a freshman, Clowney brings size, speed and power to a Texans lineup that already has 2012 NFL Defensive Player of the Year J.J. Watt.

But his work ethic has been questioned after he slipped from 13 sacks to just three in 2013. Critics said he was protecting himself from injury before declaring early for the draft.

Houston previously made the top pick in two drafts, taking quarterback David Carr in 2002. He never lived up to that billing. They took DE Mario Williams in 2006, but he left for Buffalo in 2012.
