MLB-SCHEDULE

UNDATED (AP) -- Tampa Bay's Matt Moore is looking to become baseball's first nine-game winner of the season when the Rays play host to the Yankees this afternoon. Moore is 8-0 with a 2.29 earned run average. The left-hander is 3-2 with a 3.99 ERA lifetime in five career starts against the Yankees.

The Yankees will be without center fielder Curtis Granderson for a while. He was hit by a pitch last night in Tampa and broke the little finger on his left hand. Granderson missed the first 38 games this season with a broken right forearm, after being hit by a pitch in his first at-bat of spring training.

Overall, today's schedule shows eight day games and seven night games.

The lone interleague game of the day has the Marlins in Chicago facing the White Sox tonight.

NBA PLAYOFFS

MEMPHIS (AP) -- Playing in front of their own fans the Memphis Grizzlies are looking tonight to get their first win against the Spurs in the NBA's Western Conference final. The Spurs won the first two games, played in San Antonio, 105-83 and 93-89. The second game took overtime to decide.

Being down 2-0 isn't new to the Grizzlies as they trailed the Clippers by that margin before roaring back to take the series in six games and advance against the Spurs.

The challenge now is tougher because no NBA team has won two series in the same postseason after trailing 0-2.

Game 4 in the series will be played Monday in Memphis.

NHL PLAYOFFS

UNDATED (AP) -- Both Boston and Detroit can advance to the next round of the Stanley Cup playoffs with a win today.

The Bruins-Rangers game is up first with Boston leading the New Yorkers 3-1 in their best of seven Eastern Conference semifinal. The Rangers kept their meager hopes alive with a 4-3 win in overtime Thursday night. Today's game is in Boston.

The Pittsburgh Penguins await the winner of the Boston-New York series. The Penguins advanced to the Eastern final by eliminating Ottawa in five games with a 6-2 win last night.

The Red Wings are on the verge of eliminating the Chicago Blackhawks. Chicago had a great regular season but faces elimination tonight with a loss on the home-ice. The Wings took a 3-1 series lead in their Western semifinal with a 2-0 win Thursday. After dropping the first game in Chicago, the Red Wings have won three straight.

PGA-COLONIAL

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) -- Matt Kuchar (KOO'-char) was among 18 groups getting an early start today to finish their second round at the PGA's Colonial. Kuchar had taken a one-shot lead over Graham DeLaet when play was suspended due to inclement weather late in the second round yesterday. Kuchar was 10 under par through his 15 holes. DeLaet shot a second-round 3-under-67 and is 9-under-par.

The second round at Hogan's Alley will be completed this morning before the regularly scheduled third round

LPGA-BAHAMAS

PARADISE ISLAND, Bahamas (AP) -- Heather Bowie Young and Silvia Cavalleri are tied for the first-round lead at 6-under 39. That's right, 39.

The hope was to complete three rounds of 12 holes to make the inaugural Bahamas Classic official.

Severe flooding earlier in the week left much of the Ocean Club under water. The LPGA decided to use the holes that were available.
