Fernandez at Marlins Park.Fernandez entered Tuesdays game with a 28-2 career
record at home.Both pitchers were 15-8 on the season and among the National
Leagues ERA leaders, but Roark and the Washington Nationals came up short in a
1-0 loss to Miami and Fernandez in a game that took just 2 hours, 11 minutes.I
know Jose is good here at home so it was me versus him, not me versus the
hitters, Roark said.Roark (15-9) pitched seven innings, and allowed three hits
and one run.Very good, Nationals manager Dusty Baker said. We had two good
pitchers going tonight and Tanner threw the ball well. I wish we could have got
him a win.Roark went at least seven innings while allowing one run or fewer for
the 12th time this season.Barry Bonds was very impressed with Fernandezs
performance.Bonds, the Marlins hitting coach, was among those in the dugout
congratulating Fernandez at the end of his outing, grabbing him with both hands
and kissing him repeatedly on both cheeks.I love you! Bonds shouted as Fernandez
grinned.Fernandez (16-8) pitched eight innings and struck out 12.That goes way
back, its a long story, Fernandez said with a smile about his connection with
Bonds. Its impressive. Everybody knows who he is and what he has done in this
game. When I was walking in here now he told me, `It was the best that I have
seen you pitch. Im impressed. To get that from probably one of the best hitters
in the history of the game means the world.Fernandez allowed three hits without
a walk while retiring 21 in a row at one point.I thought it was the best game he
has thrown all year, Marlins manager Don Mattingly said of Fernandez. He used
his changeup early in the game and that was a weapon for him all day to keep
them off-balanced.David Phelps pitched the ninth for the Marlins and recorded
his fourth save in 10 chances as Miami won its third straight.In the situation
were in what you would really like to do is win every game and force whoever
were behind to win every game -- to have to win theirselves in, Mattingly
said.The Nationals were held to four hits in their fourth consecutive loss.Bryce
Harper returned to the starting lineup for Washington after getting the day off
on Monday and went 0 for 4.We had a couple times when Bryce hit the ball a ton,
Baker said. Thats a good sign when he hits the ball on a line like that. Its
tough to stay with him and stuff but hes right there, right around the corner.
Hes frustrated, were all frustrated especially when youre not scoring
runs.Stantons 27th home run broke a scoreless tie in the bottom of the sixth
inning. Stanton also homered in Mondays 4-3 win.It was just a good swing, good
contact-type ball, Stanton said. It wasnt like a hard drive or anything. Just a
good bat path to a ball out over the plate.Stephen Drew smacked a double off the
top of the right field fence over Stantons head in the first inning before
Fernandez retired the next 21 batters.Wilson Ramos broke through in the top of
the eighth with a soft liner to center and Brian Goodwin followed with a single
to right.Fernandez struck out Danny Espinosa and got pinch-hitter Daniel Murphy
to ground out to get out of the jam and cap his outing.He was good, he was
feeling it, Stanton said. He knows how important each and every game is and he
wanted to make sure he put it away today.TRAINERS ROOMNationals: Baker denied a
report about Harper dealing with a shoulder injury. The story was inaccurate,
Baker said. They asked me about the shoulder problem before and I said we gave
him four or five days off. I dont even know how long ago that was, six weeks ago
or something like that? And to say hes playing shallow because he couldnt throw
the ball is totally inaccurate. I dont know where they got that from. I know
they got some quotes from me, but I was talking about the past. I wasnt talking
about the present. I dont know how it came out because I dont read much, but
that was inaccurate reporting. Nobody knows where it came from because hes not
on the injury report and we treated that already in the past. ... 2B Murphy
(left leg soreness) was held out of the starting lineup for the third
consecutive game.Marlins: RHP Bryan Morris (lumbar disc herniation) was
reinstated from the 60-day DL and was designated for assignment.UP
NEXTNationals: RHP Max Scherzer (17-7, 2.78 ERA) will start Wednesdays series
finale with the Marlins. Scherzer is 4-0 with a 1.47 ERA in his last five
starts.Marlins: RHP Tom Koehler (9-11, 3.96) takes the mound looking for his
first win since Aug. 9 against San Francisco.

Custom Jazz T-shirts . After a first
half in which he thought "the lid was on the basket," the Toronto Raptors coach
watched his squad mount a second half surge to defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers
98-91. The attorneys for Joe Mixon released a surveillance video on Friday that
shows the Sooners?star running back punching a female Oklahoma student in
2014.The video shows Mixon punching Amelia Molitor, fracturing four bones in her
face, during an altercation at a sandwich shop near Oklahomas campus in Norman.
He was charged with a misdemeanor at the time of the incident, and the
university suspended him for the entire 2014 season.The video was released after
the Oklahoma Association of Broadcasters sued for its access, prompting the
Oklahoma Supreme Court to rule earlier this month that the city of Norman should
release it. The city had until Dec. 26 to either release the video or file an
appeal.?Mixons attorneys, however, said the running back asked that they make
public the video before the citys deadline.?Mr. Mixon asked us to once again say
he is sorry for the way he acted that night, a statement through his attorneys
said. He has publicly apologized to Ms. Molitor, her friends, his family,
teammates, and the University. He hopes that his voluntary release of these
recordings will help put this matter to rest.The university issued a statement
on Friday night, shortly after the video was released:University officials were
made aware of the content of the video prior to taking action with respect to
Joe Mixon [in 2014], the school said. Based on that information, the university
immediately suspended and removed Mr. Mixon from the football team for one year,
during which high standards of conduct were expected and maintained. It was made
clear to Mr. Mixon at the time of his suspension that violence against women
will not go unpunished at the university. Coach [Bob] Stoops has been proactive
in presenting training for his team aimed at preventing such behavior in the
future. Sensitivity training in the area of violence has been intensified and
best practices will continue to be implemented. Mr. Mixon has apologized for his
actions, and the university hopes that it is an indication that he has learned
from his mistakes. We are an educational institution, where we hope young people
will learn from their mistakes and chart a better future
course.ddddddddddddMixon issued a formal apology last month but also suggested
that racial slurs were hurled at him, which he said initiated the incident.I was
not drinking, Mixon said in the apology, which was sent to The Oklahoman. I have
never had a drink in my life. At the end of the night, a group of apparently
drunk people started harassing us. Some of my teammates were wise enough to
leave. I did not, and I am sorry.Last week, in a statement released to The
Oklahoman, attorneys for Molitor called the narrative that she spit on, punched
and hurled racial slurs at a cornered man false. Her attorneys asked a judge to
suppress the release of the video, arguing it alone wouldnt tell the full
story.According to Mixons attorneys, however, Molitor has since given the OK to
release the video.?Molitor has a pending civil lawsuit against the running
back.Mixon, 20, pleaded guilty to the charge without making an admission of
guilt. He received a one-year deferred sentence and was required to perform 100
hours of community service and undergo counseling.Stoops was asked in 2015 why
he did not kick Mixon off the team.In our situation, we felt this [the
suspension] was the right way to proceed, Stoops said last year. In the end, we
felt that hes been disciplined. He was removed totally from all team activities
from that point on. And hes earned a way to be back to have an opportunity for a
second chance to redeem himself with strict guidelines that go with it.In 11
games for the Sooners this season, Mixon has rushed for a team-leading 1,183
yards and eight touchdowns. Oklahoma plays?Auburn in the Allstate Sugar Bowl on
Jan. 2.Mixon is a third-year sophomore who is eligible for the 2017 NFL draft.On
ability alone, ESPN NFL draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr. ranks Mixon as his
fifth-highest-rated running back behind Leonard Fournette, Dalvin Cook, DOnta
Foreman and Christian McCaffrey.?Information from ESPNs Jake Trotter and The
Associated Press was used in this report. ' ' '
