With his yellow jersey from the Tour de France left in a bag at home, Mark Cavendish will not be satisfied with his summer until he has an Olympic medal around his neck.The Team GB rider currently sits third in the omnium with a day to go at the Olympic Velodrome in Rio, where he is targeting the last big prize that has eluded him during a glittering career.Cavendish claimed his first yellow jersey with victory on the opening stage of this years Tour, before going on to win another three stages before quitting the race early to focus on Rio.And after missing out on medals at the 2008 and 2012 Games, the Manxman revealed he has not had time to dwell on his success this year with the biggest prize still ahead of him.[The yellow jersey] is in a bag with my other jerseys, Cavendish said. I came in [after the Tour], put my suitcases down and had three days with the family.My suitcases sat there in the lobby, but the night before Rio [...] it was stressing me out to see a bit of untidiness. I didnt have time to do anything, so I just put it in a bag to sort it out later. Ive got a room being done at the minute, so theyre just in a bag for the time being.Im not just doing this to mill around in Rio de Janeiro. Ive been to two Olympics, Im going because I want to win.Cavendish was sixth in the omnium at Marchs Track World Championships, but showed strong enough form on Sunday to suggest gold is not out of his reach.He was sixth in the the scratch race, second in the four-kilometres individual pursuit, but closed the day frustrated with seventh in the elimination race.The early elimination of Denmarks Lasse Norman Hansen, the defending Olympic champion, represented an opportunity, but Cavendish strayed off the track.Thomas Boudat of France leads at the halfway mark with 106 points, Elia Viviani of Italy has 104 and Cavendish is third on 96.Team GB have claimed four golds and two silvers from five events entered after a phenomenal Olympic track meeting so far, and Cavendish is keen to add his name to the list of British champions in Brazil, although he remained philosophical about his chances.If I win the Olympics its not going to be the defining moment of my career, he added. Ive been pro for 10 years, but its definitely something Id like to win.Press Association Sport contributed to this report. Nike Blazers Cheap Authentic .

LOUIS -- Attorneys for the St. DETROIT -- It was hard to tell who was happier when Joshua Phegleys sixth-inning grand slam cleared the fence -- Phegley himself, or the pitcher who would benefit from those four runs. Phegleys drive gave Chris Sale some long-awaited offensive support, and Chicago went on to beat the Detroit Tigers 6-3 on Thursday in a game that included a bench-clearing altercation shortly after the White Sox took the lead. Sale was 0-6 in his previous seven starts despite an ERA of 3.10 over that span. With one swing, Phegley helped the left-hander end his unfortunate winless stretch. "That was awesome," Sale said. "Being in that situation and watching that ball go over the fence, that was very satisfying to say the least. What a game. We didnt put our heads down, didnt quit." Chicago trailed 3-1 when Phegley cleared the bases with a homer off Detroit starter Anibal Sanchez (7-6). Luke Putkonen came on and got one out before throwing a pitch behind Alexei Ramirez, who started toward the mound before being restrained. Benches and bullpens emptied, but the situation didnt escalate into any sort of fight. Putkonen was ejected, and Detroit manager Jim Leyland argued with umpires at length and was also tossed from the game. "I wasnt trying to hit anybody," Putkonen said. "Just threw a fastball inside, and it got away from me." Ramirez felt otherwise. "Obviously, that wasnt a pitch that was intended to go in the zone," he said through a translator. Sale (6-8) allowed three runs in 6 2-3 innings. Addison Reed pitched the ninth for his 23rd save in 27 chances. Detroits Miguel Cabrera hit his 30th homer of the year, a solo shot in the fifth that gave the Tigers a 3-1 lead. Prince Fielder was up next, and Sale threw a pitch high and inside to the Detroit slugger. Sale said he didnt mean to come close to hitting Fielder. "Just trying to rare back and throw it as hard as I can. Ive said it before -- theres a time and a place for that, and that wasnt the time or the place," Sale said. "Im not even trying to send a message. I wasnt even trying to back him off the plate, honestly. Ive got a lot of respect for Prince, the Detroit Tigers and the game of baseball." The White Sox rallied off Sanchez to take the lead, and then Putkonens pitch nearly hit Ramirez. Leyland looked fired up during the brouhaha that followed, and he twice came back out to argue with umpires. Leyland did not speak to reporters after the game. Plate umpire Chad Fairchild explained the decision to eject Putkonen. "He threw behind him and I deemed it intenttional," Fairchild said.dddddddddddd Fairchild did not view Sales pitch to Fielder the same way. "There was no reaction from Fielder. He said nothing. There was no reaction from anyone else," Fairchild said. "The only reaction I saw was from Sale, who made a motion like, Damn, it got away." Sale sounded upset with himself afterward. "Even when I threw it on the mound, I was kind of like, Ohhhhh, thats not good. So from the outside looking in, it doesnt look good at all. Like I said, I swear on everything I love, it was unintentional," he said. "Any time your teammates have something like that happen because of something you did, thats not fun. "Obviously, I wont sit here and say (Putkonens pitch) was intentional -- maybe it got away from him as well -- but you see something like that, and you kind of feel like an even bigger idiot, knowing that could have hurt him and done whatever, and that was because of me." With the crowd booing, Ramirez hit a single to right field and then left the game himself because of cramping in his right leg. Detroit centre fielder Austin Jackson couldnt come up with Jeff Keppingers sinking liner to start the sixth and was charged with an error. After a walk and a strikeout, Gordon Beckham singled and the 25-year-old Phegley followed with a grand slam in his 18th major league at-bat. "Especially for Sale, we needed to get him a win," Phegley said. "He threw well and he deserved it." Phegley is 4 for 20 now -- with three homers. Sale allowed 10 hits, walked two and struck out eight. He left in the seventh after allowing a double by Torii Hunter, and Matt Lindstrom came on and got Cabrera on a flyout. Alejandro De Aza made it 6-3 with a homer in the eighth off Phil Coke. De Aza also hit a single and a double. Ramirez opened the scoring in the first with an RBI double, but Matt Tuiasosopo put the Tigers ahead with a two-run homer in the second. Cabreras solo shot increased his RBI total to 94. Hes the first player to reach 30 homers and 90 RBIs before the All-Star break, according to STATS. A pair of Cincinnati Reds -- Tony Perez in 1970 and George Foster in 1977 -- made it to 29 and 90.
