Seattle’s Paxton lands on 10-day DL

Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James (23) shoots
over Toronto Raptors forward Serge Ibaka (9) during
the second half of Game 3 of an NBA basketball sec-
ond-round playoff series in Toronto on Friday.
James shines as Cavs
lead 3-0 over Raptors
Associated Press
TORONTO — LeBron
James scored 35 points,
Kevin Love had 16 points
and 13 rebounds, and the
Cleveland Cavaliers pulled
away in the fourth quarter
to beat the Toronto Raptors
115-94 on Friday night
and take a 3-0 lead in their
second-round playoff series.
DeMar DeRozan scored
37 points and Jonas Valanci-
unas had 19 for the Raptors,
who were without three-time
All-Star Kyle Lowry. They
trailed by only two after three
quarters before the Cavaliers
quickly blew open the game.
Game 4 is Sunday in
Toronto.
The Cavaliers are the first
team since the Minneapolis
Lakers in 1949 and 1950 to
win their first seven playoff
games
in
consecutive
seasons.
Cleveland won 10 straight
to begin the playoffs last
year. That streak ended when
Toronto beat the Cavs in
Games 3 and 4 of the Eastern
Conference finals, but the
Raptors couldn’t duplicate
the feat this time around.

HOUSTON
(AP)
— Kawhi Leonard and
LaMarcus Aldridge scored
26 points apiece to help San
Antonio, now without Tony
Parker, beat Houston to take
a 2-1 lead in the Western
Conference semifinals.
Aldridge had managed
just 19 points combined
in the first two games, but
stepped up in the wake of
Parker’s season-ending leg
injury, scoring nine points in
the fourth quarter to help the
Spurs pull away.
Game 4 is Sunday night
in Houston.
James Harden led the
Rockets with 43 points after
scoring just 13 in Game 2.
But he had just five assists
and complained about the
officiating all night.
The Spurs were playing
in the postseason without
Parker for the first time
since 2001, ending an
NBA record of 221 straight
playoff appearances for the
Frenchman.
SEATTLE — Mariners
left-hander James Paxton
was placed on the 10-day
disabled list Friday with a
left forearm strain, another
blow for Seattle’s already
short-handed starting rota-
tion.
The Mariners believe
the injury is minor and
Paxton will only miss two
or three starts. But Paxton
is the third pitcher from the
projected starting rotation
at the beginning of spring
training to find himself on
the disabled list, joining
Drew
Smyly
(60-day
DL) and Felix Hernandez
(10-day DL).
Paxton has been one
of baseball’s best pitchers
through the first month of
the season with a 3-0 record
and 1.43 ERA.
“These
are
curveballs
that
happen. It just
seems that they’ve
been
extreme,”
Seattle
general
manager
Jerry
Dipoto
said.
“You can’t plan
for these things. Paxton
We’ve tried to
create as much depth as we
can. I think it’s working in
the outfield, it worked in the
infield. We’re still hitting
a lot of rocky patches on
the pitching staff. That’s
pitching.”
Seattle made a flurry
of roster moves before
opening a three-game series
against Texas, including
Paxton going on the
disabled list. The Mari-
ners other big move was
optioning starting catcher
Mike Zunino to
Triple-A Tacoma
and
recalling
Tuffy Gosewisch.
An
excellent
defensive catcher,
Zunino
was
hitting just .167
in 24 games and
was 2 for 20 in the
past eight games.
Seattle
also
recalled infielder Mike
Freeman and relief pitcher
Evan Marshall and optioned
outfielder Boog Powell to
Tacoma.
Paxton said he first felt
forearm discomfort after
his start April 26 at Detroit,
when he threw seven
shutout innings. Paxton
attributed the discomfort
to normal soreness, but
the feeling he had pitching
against the Angels last
Tuesday was different, at
which point he alerted the
Mariners’ medical staff.
Paxton had an MRI that
revealed the Grade 1 strain.
Dipoto said he believes the
Mariners were fortunate to
catch the injury before it got
any worse.
“In the L.A. game, it just
got tighter and tighter as the
game went on, and once
I came out of the game, it
was pretty sore,” Paxton
said.
In four of his six starts,
he has not allowed an
earned run, and his 45
strikeouts were third in the
American League. Paxton
was scheduled to start
Sunday against Texas in
the finale of a homestand. It
will likely be either Dillon
Overton, currently in Seat-
tle’s bullpen, or Triple-A
pitcher Christian Bergman
getting the start.
Former Ducks football star in custody after escape
By STEVEN DUBOIS
Associated Press
PORTLAND — Former
Oregon football player Colt
Lyerla nearly died from a
drug overdose Friday after
escaping from custody near
Portland.
Hillsboro Police Lt.
Henry
Reimann
said
officers found Lyerla at a
home a couple miles from
the Washington County Jail
after officers responded to a
reported overdose.
“He wasn’t breathing;
CPR was administered,”
Reimann said.
Lyerla was eventually
revived with naloxone,
a drug that reverses the
overdose effects of opioids.
Once awake, Lyerla tried
to flee, but officers stopped
him, Reimann said. Police
took him to a hospital for
treatment.
The 24-year-old Lyerla
was
sentenced
last month to six
months in jail
after
pleading
guilty to forgery.
He was lodged at
the Washington
County Commu-
nity Corrections
Center, a mini-
m u m - s e c u r i t y Lyerla
work
release
center across the street from
the jail. It’s designed to
help inmates successfully
re-enter the community.
Center director Steve
Berger said Lyerla was
discovered
missing
Thursday afternoon after
an alarm alerted staff that
a dormitory window had
been opened. All inmates
returned to their dorms for
a headcount, and Lyerla
was the only one missing.
Reimann said he doesn’t
know
the
connection
between Lyerla and the
house where he
was found.
“Apparently
he knows them
because he went
there,” he said.
One woman
at the home
was arrested on
an
outstanding
warrant, Reimann
said. Police are
investigating whether to
charge the residents with
harboring an escaped
inmate.
Once considered an
NFL prospect, the 6-foot-4,
242-pound tight end left the
Ducks in the middle of the
2013 season after he was
suspended for violating
team rules. He has had
several run-ins with the law
since then.
He
pleaded
guilty
to cocaine possession
in December 2013 and
received a short jail
sentence. A DUI charge in
2014 was dismissed. When
he was arrested for heroin
possession last August,
his address was listed as
“transient.” Another heroin
arrest followed.
Police arrested him this
spring after the manager of
a convenience store said
Lyerla twice tried to pay
with counterfeit $50 bills.
When officers arrested
Lyerla, they found heroin
in his possession.
Lyerla starred at Hills-
boro High before heading
to the University of Oregon.
Every team bypassed
him in the 2014 NFL draft.
The Green Bay Packers
signed him as an undrafted
free agent, but he suffered
a serious knee injury during
training camp and was later
waived. He later tried the
Arena Football League
and professional rugby in
France.
