BOSTON -- Matt Shoemaker is due for some good fortune.The Angels right-hander is coming off a strong June that saw him run up a 2.14 ERA in six starts, good enough to place him in the running for mention for things like Pitcher of the Month.One problem -- he didnt win a game, as his team suffered through an 8-19 month that sent it spiraling into last place in the American league West.Matt is on an incredible run, manager Mike Scioscia said after his pitchers last outing.Incredible run. No results -- something Shoemaker hopes to turn around when he faces the Red Sox in Sundays series finale at Fenway Park.He can only hope his teammates, who scored 21 runs to even the three-game series on Saturday night, saved some for him on Sunday.Shoemaker will face a former Angel, journeyman right-hander Sean OSullivan, who will come up from Triple-A Pawtucket for the spot start.Its not that frustrating because its a long season and its the game of baseball, Shoemaker, who has allowed four earned runs and struck out 20 in 19 1/3 innings over his last three starts, said after the bullpen failed to hold his win last week -- in his second straight strong start against the Houston Astros.My job is to try to go out and put up zeros as much as I can. For the bullpen, its the same thing. Sometimes things dont go our way.Shoemaker, 7-10 last year after a 16-4 run in 2014, is 3-8 with a 4.12 ERA this season. In June, he was 0-3 as his ERA dropped from 5.85 to 4.12. He joined Pedro Martinez (New York Mets, 2006) as the only pitchers ever to go winless in a month with an ERA under 3.00 and with at least 45 strikeouts.He hasnt won since May 27.Shoemaker has been brilliant in two career games, one start, against the Red Sox, going 2-0 with a 0.00 ERA in 10 2/3 innings against Boston.Current Red Sox hitters are a combined 1-for-24 against Shoemaker, with both Xander Bogaerts and Dustin Pedroia coming in at 0-for-4.OSullivan was 1-0 with a 7.94 ERA in three games, two starts, with the Red Sox earlier this season. One of nine starters used by the club in 2016, he comes up on a Triple-A run that saw him go 4-0 with a 2.61 ERA in six starts.He got the nod over right-hander Aaron Wilkerson, the former Independent League pitcher who is 4-1 with a 2.20 ERA with Pawtucket -- as the Red Sox hit the official midway point with their 81st game.That was the recommendation (of the minor league people), manager John Farrell said Friday. Wilkerson, we recognize, has been throwing the ball well there. The recommendation was for Sean to come back up here and pitch on Sunday.OSullivan, out of options, was designated for assignment by the Red Sox on May 16, but he returned to Pawtucket after clearing waivers.Overall at Pawtucket, he is 6-2 with a 2.79 ERA in 11 starts this season.He was 5-2 with the Angels in 2009 and 2010.Now, he has to try to turn around what happened to his team, losers of seven of their last 11, on Saturday night.

I know its common knowledge that all players are responsible for their sticks. We witnessed that when Zack Kassian hit Edmontons Sam Gagner in the face after a missed check. WACO, Texas -- Baylor senior cornerback Ryan Reid sometimes texts teammates out of the blue to ask what theyre doing.After a fraught offseason when the 23rd-ranked Bears lost their head coach, the outreach is part of an effort to build chemistry -- and prevent more missteps off the field.One thing we do, we try to keep everybody out of trouble, Reid said. I think we take the extra step to keep everybody on the right path. And I think thats just going to make us a better football player ... to see our leaders just taking the extra step to make this team better.Seth Russell, a senior quarterback who was the top-rated FBS passer before a season-ending neck injury last October, said the Bears are looking forward to talking football and winning games while trying to build a culture of high character.Thats what were doing right now, Russell said. Were sticking together each and every day. Were growing closer as a unit, as a team.Its been three months since the release of a 13-page report detailing an independent investigation that determined the school mishandled complaints of sexual assault against some players.Art Briles was suddenly gone after eight seasons, a span in which the team went from routine Big 12 bottom dweller to two conference titles, six straight bowl games and the verge of the College Football Playoff.Athletic director Ian McCaw resigned and school President Ken Starr was demoted. Starr last week severed his final tie with the school by resigning his post as a law school professor.Russell was with other athletes from the private Baptist school on a mission trip in Brazil when the report was released and Briles was immediately removed as coach.Russell faced plenty of uncertainty when he returned home the following week, and the team has different challenges than normal as it prepares for its opener Sept. 2 at home against Northwestern State.Its night and day II feel like, Russell said.dddddddddddd Were going to get faced with adversity. But you have to come out and take advantage of every opportunity you have on the field, because you never know when that opportunity will be taken away.The Bears are down to about 70 scholarship players after some summertime departures, including backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham. Only half of their highly touted signing class from last spring is now on the team.Everybody just knows that the chemistry that we have, it has to be greater than ever before, Reid said.Acting coach Jim Grobe was hired to replace Briles and kept all the assistant coaches even after being given authority to make changes, saying he wanted to keep as much continuity as possible for the players on the field. Briles was the only coach fired even though the report concluded multiple football coaches acted inappropriately in handling sexual assault allegations against some players.Grobe has already had to deal with other off-field issues, too.Offensive lineman Rami Hammad, an expected starter at right guard, was suspended earlier this month and is no longer listed on the roster after his arrest on a felony stalking charge in a case involving his ex-girlfriend this summer.That was before video surfaced of sophomore receiver Ish Zamora beating a dog with a belt while training it this summer. Without being specific, Grobe has promised that Zamora is going to get disciplined by a bunch of people after his misdemeanor charge for molesting an animal. Zamora, expected to be one of the teams top receivers, has been practicing but could lose playing time.The only thing we can do is win games. Stay off the front page, Reid said. If its the front page, its the front page about football. Thats all we can do.
