EUGENE, Ore. -- Growing pains are nothing new for the oldest veteran on Oregons roster, who may have finally found his comfort zone.After missing most of the Ducks run to the Elite Eight last season because of a foot injury, sixth-year senior Dylan Ennis, a graduate transfer from Villanova, is still getting acclimated to his teammates.Ennis scored 18 points and No. 23 Oregon rallied for a 68-63 victory over Boise State on Monday night.Tyler Dorsey added 17 points for the Ducks (5-2), who came back from 14 down in the first half to win their 28th consecutive home game.A 3-pointer by Ennis with 3:30 to play put Oregon ahead for the first time since early in the game.He probably played as well as anybody we had, coach Dana Altman said.Ennis also made nine of 10 free throws and had six rebounds in his best all-around game with the Ducks, but he was particularly pleased with his lone 3 when Oregon needed it most.That was one that was in rhythm and it just went down, Ennis said. I havent played with these guys at all. Were still meshing in and were going to get it.Last year we had a few growing pains and at the end of the year we got it right, and that can happen this year as well.After Dorseys free throw gave Oregon a 66-63 lead, the Broncos (3-3) had a chance for a tying shot, but Paris Austin lost possession on a baseline drive with 5 seconds left. Dillon Brooks sealed the win with two free throws.Brooks, a preseason All-America selection, had five points and shot 1 of 9 in 21 minutes off the bench in his fourth game back from offseason foot surgery.He had a bad game, Altman said. He was trying too hard, going way too fast.Austin led Boise State with 16 points. Nick Duncan added 15 on five of the Broncos 11 3-pointers.Altman thought his team was lucky to come back after Boise State built its big lead from beyond the arc.When a team hits more than 10 3s, youre fortunate to win playing as poorly as we did, he said.The Ducks finished with 10 blocks and a 39-32 rebounding edge. Chris Boucher led the way with five blocks and eight rebounds.BIG PICTUREBoise State: The Broncos missed a shot at their fourth road win against a Top 25 opponent and third under seventh-year coach Leon Rice. Boise State beat unranked Oregon 74-72 last year in Boise.Oregon: The Ducks wont leave the state for their next eight games to finish 2016, capped by visits from No. 11 UCLA and USC in late December to start Pac-12 play.POLL IMPLICATIONSOregon, which has dropped 19 spots since reaching a school-best AP ranking of No. 4 two weeks ago, should bounce back in the poll with six more games against unranked teams to finish its nonconference schedule.STAT OF THE NIGHTBoise State had nine steals to Oregons three, a 15-9 edge in second-chance points and played the Ducks even on points in the paint at 20-20 -- all of which left Altman shaking his head. We got beat in every category, he said.ROLE PLAYERJunior point guard Casey Benson, who is adapting to coming off the bench after starting the first four games and leading the nation in assist-to-turnover ratio last season, hit consecutive 3-pointers in the second half that helped spark Oregons comeback. Those were two big shots, Altman said. We were stuck in the mud and couldnt get anything going.UP NEXTBoise State hosts SMU on Wednesday night before traveling to play Evansville as part of the Mountain West/Missouri Valley Challenge on Saturday.Oregon hosts Western Oregon, which reached the NCAA Division II Final Four last year, on Wednesday night and then Savannah State on Saturday to continue a five-game homestand.

CLEVELAND -- The last time the Toronto Blue Jays and Cleveland Indians met, the results were rather garish. In a three-game series in Toronto starting July 1, the Indians won the first game 2-1 in 19 innings and the Blue Jays won the next two games by a combined score of 26-7. The third game of that series was won by Toronto 17-1.Six weeks later, the teams will reconvene for another three-game series, this one in Cleveland. Both teams are in first place in their divisions -- Toronto in the AL East, Cleveland in the AL Central -- so this series could potentially be a playoff preview.In game one of the series Friday night the pitching matchup is Clevelands Trevor Bauer (9-5, 3.97) vs. Torontos Francisco Liriano (6-12, 5.46).Liriano will be making his third start for Toronto since the Blue Jays acquired him in a trade deadline deal with Pittsburgh. In his first two starts for the Jays Liriano was 0-1 with a 5.40 ERA. In 18 career appearances, 13 starts, against Cleveland Liriano is 5-6 with a 3.81 ERA. He has made nine career appearances, six starts, at Progressive Field and is 2/3 with a 5.67 ERA.Bauer was the winning pitcher in that epic 19-inning 2-1 Cleveland victory in Toronto on July 1, pitching five scoreless innings, after the Indians ran out of relievers. Bauer has made two career starts against the Blue Jays and is 0-1 with a 17.47 ERA.Whether Bauer will have to face Toronto third baseman Josh Donaldson in Fridays game remains to be seen. Donaldson missed a game earlier this season with a jammed right thumb, and in Torontos 7-4 win over the Yankees on Wednesday he was removed from the game in the sixth inning when he aggravated the thumb during an at bbat.ddddddddddddI didnt want to do any further damage to it than I already did, and having it possibly getting jammed further, a second or third time and then having to miss more time than I need to, said Donaldson, whose status is considered day-to-day.Given Donaldsons success against Cleveland, it would be a surprise if hes not in the lineup Friday night. In four games against the Indians this year he is 7-for-18 (.389) with two home runs and four RBI. In 120 career at bats against Cleveland he has a .333 average with seven home runs and 31 RBI.The Toronto series will be the last three games of the Indians 11-game homestand, their longest homestand of the season. They are 6-2 in the first eight games, including winning two of three games from the White Sox in a series that concluded Thursday night.Clevelands successful season has been built on its starting pitching, although the rotation has hit a couple of speed bumps lately. Thursday night, in his first start after a 15-day stay on the disabled list, Danny Salazar was removed after a nightmarish 34-pitch, three-walk, 3-run first inning.He was rusty. You could tell from the beginning he couldnt find the plate, Indians manager Terry Francona said.I was wild. Thats it, said Salazar. I felt great, I just couldnt find my release point.The Indians will have to make a roster move Friday, when pitcher Josh Tomlin is expected to be activated off the Family Emergency List, assuming he returns from his home in Tyler, Tex. Tomlin is scheduled to start Saturdays game against the Blue Jays. ' ' '
