The Cardinals, 10-17 overall and 2-4 in league play, are scheduled to play the Yreka Miners, 9-12 overall and 2-3 in league play, at 6:30 p.m. this com- ing Tuesday in a league match in Yreka. Roundup FROM PAGE 1 Earnhardt is 11th in the 12-driver field after sub-par races in the second round. He finished 28th at Char- lotte and was 21st — low- est of all Chase drivers — last week at Kansas. But Talladega is his track, and the crowd will be firmly behind him. They root for him in these grandstands like no other driver, and the roar when he charges to the front can make the ground shake. Earnhardt is a six- time winner at Talladega — tied for most among ac- tive drivers with Hendrick Motorsports teammate Jeff Gordon — so having this track play such a big role in his title chances gives him confidence. Earnhardt noted Sunday that there's no other track than Talladega that he'd rather be at this week fac- ing elimination. "We've won here this year and we've ran good and won at Daytona over the last several years," he said. "So when we come to all the plate tracks, we feel confident we can do well and feel confident in the car. The confidence that you have in the car is really where it all stems from." He sits at the bottom of the standings with Kyle Busch (ninth), Ryan New- man (10th) and Matt Kens- eth (12th). Busch was in solid position this race a year ago — he was second in the standings — only to be caught up in a wreck and eliminated. So no one heads into Sunday feeling safe, and only Joey Logano has earned the automatic berth into the third round. Lo- gano won the last two races — he had contact last week at Kansas with Kenseth that spun Kens- eth out of the lead, and de- nied Kenseth an automatic berth into the third round. "There are certainly go- ing to be some people that race scared and racing scared, to me, means some- times you race not to win, but to not lose as far as the points are concerned," said Brad Keselowski, who is seventh in the standings. Keselowski was in a must-win situation a year ago, and drove his way to victory lane to continue his playoffs. Eliminated that day were Busch and Hen- drick drivers Earnhardt, Jimmie Johnson and Kasey Kahne. Most drivers have vary- ing strategies of persever- ance for 500 miles of plate racing, and many sim- ply watch how it develops. That's what happened in the spring when one long single-file line of drivers circled the track and no one pulled out of line — even with the win in reach. "I think we've seen races here, in fact the last spring race, we saw that where the race stayed single-file for a long, long time," Kesel- owski said. "To me, (that) is kind of somewhat a showing of racing scared, where you're happy with where you're running and you don't want to do any- thing to jeopardize that so you stay in line." He wouldn't reveal what he'd like to do to maintain his spot in the playoffs Sun- day. "I'm not really all that interested in sharing what my plan is now," Kesel- owski said. Earnhardt had a much more simplistic approach. "When the race starts, run up front and try to stay toward the lead," he said. "I think it's important to be in the lead in the last 50 laps of the race, so we're going to try to be there."

By Tim Booth The Associated Press SEATTLE The Seattle Mariners hired former big league catcher Scott Ser- vais as their manager Fri- day, giving the job to some- one with ties to the new front office but no experi- ence running a team. The 48-year-old Servais replaces Lloyd McClendon, who was fired earlier this month after Seattle went 76-86. Servais will be for- mally introduced by the team next week. New Mariners gen- eral manager Jerry Di- poto made the announce- ment. Servais has worked the past five seasons as an assistant general manager for the Los Angeles Angels and worked alongside Di- poto for most of that time. Dipoto resigned as Angels GM on July 1. Not only did Dipoto and Servais work together with the Angels, they were teammates for one season in Colorado in 2000. Servais oversaw the An- gels' scouting and player development, and had wanted to be on a major league coaching staff. He joined Dipoto and the An- gels in 2011 after spending six seasons as the senior director of player devel- opment with Texas. Ser- vais was credited with the growth of slugger Nelson Cruz during their time to- gether with the Rangers — Cruz now plays for Seattle. Servais spent time with Houston, the Cubs and San Francisco during his play- ing career. He hit .245 with 63 home runs and 319 RBIs in 820 career games. Ser- vais served as a catching instructor for the Cubs. BASEBALL Mariners hire Servais as new skipper | SPORTS | REDBLUFFDAILYNEWS.COM SATURDAY, OCTOBER 24, 2015 2 B
