BALTIMORE -- The Baltimore Orioles will look to complete a three-game sweep of the Texas Rangers in a battle of first-place teams on Thursday.The Orioles won the opener 5-1 with the help of four solo homers and a masterful performance by starter Dylan Bundy. Kevin Gausman then outdueled Texas ace Cole Hamels, leading the Orioles to a 3-2 victory the following night.Wade Miley (7-8, 4.98 ERA), acquired from the Seattle Mariners on Aug. 1, will make his Orioles debut and try to keep the momentum going in the series finale.Were playing some good teams, Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. If you look at our schedule, its a top-rated schedule the rest of the way. You know what? Our guys are pretty good, too. They enjoy the competition. They dont shirk from it. They like people telling them they shouldnt be able to do it. They like proving people wrong. Theyve done that for quite a while.Wiley is expected to give the Orioles an immediate boost as the only left-hander in the rotation and his ability to throw deep into games -- an area where Baltimore has struggled all season. Left-handers are also batting just .239 against him this season.We needed a left-handed pitcher to complement our rotation, and Wades a workhorse, Orioles executive vice president Dan Duquette said. Hes pitched in the American League effectively. Hes got all the qualities to help our club, and not just for this year, for next year. Weve liked his skills for a while, going back to the first winter meetings. We tried to acquire him in a trade with Arizona. And he had a terrific year.The Rangers will look to avoid the sweep with right-hander A.J. Griffin (4-1, 3.99 ERA), who is beginning to regain his form after an earlier stint on the disabled list with right shoulder stiffness. Griffin picked up his first win since April 26 in his last outing against the Kansas City Royals. He gave up two runs in 5 2/3 innings.Griffin joined Hamels as the only Rangers starter to post a win in July. Griffin hopes to play a key role in the first-place Rangers stretch run toward the playoffs.You cant take this job for granted, Griffin told the Fort Worth Star Telegram after the game. Theres someone always trying to take your job from you. To be part of something thats great like we have here in Texas right now, youre scratching and clawing to stay around.The Rangers boosted their lineup with the addition of Carlos Beltran and Jonathan Lucroy at the trade deadline. Their lineup, however, has been mostly contained by Orioles pitching. Manager Jeff Banister is hopeful that will change in the final regular-season game between the teams.This is a quality lineup, theyre going to hit and put runs up on the board, Banister said of the Orioles. You have to pitch to go out and pitch your best game. Custom Nike Boston Red Sox Jerseys .J. -- Josh Cribbs was in the Pro Bowl in February and out of a job six months later.

Former Hibernian and Kilmarnock striker Nish took charge of the Scottish League 1 side in the summer after signing as a player in January 2015. The club suffered a second straight relegation at the weekend when they lost 2-1 on aggregate to Queens Park in the League 1 play-off semi-final. On Thursday the club released a statement announcing Nish would not be offered a new contract after his deal expired at the end of the season.Despite relegation to Scotlands fourth tier, Nish told Sky Sports News HQ he was surprised by the decision as he had been assured he would be at Central Park regardless of where the club finished this season. Colin Nish holds off current Rangers assistant manager David Weir in a match in 2011 He said: Whether we were relegated or not I was told Id be there and I think at that time we were bottom of the league. We went on a good run and just missed out on staying up automatically.Thats why Im disappointed. Ive been involved in football for a long time and I know these things dont make much of a difference until something is signed.I was never in the position where I was 100 per cent sure Id be there, but at the same time I thank Cowdenbeath for the opportunity. Ive learned a lot this year which will hopefully hold me in good stead for the future.With limited resources, the former Hartlepool forward believes he did the best job possible and would love another go at management in the near future. Rangers 5-1 Cowdenbeath - Scottish Cup fourth round Im proud of myself because I feel that I did a good job based on the budget that I had, which is all I can go by, he said.Nish continued: I want to do something in football, thats my passion and thats what I enjoy doing. Ive certainly not lost any confidence. If anything IIve gained confidence in my managerial capabilities.ddddddddddddIve learned a lot this year, probably more than I did in my playing career in terms of different things about being a manager. I will definitely come back stronger given the opportunity.The beginning of the season was really tough. I didnt have a team basically. Then I built a team I felt was capable of challenging for the play-offs going up the way.In January we lost a couple of players I signed on loan at the start, but we could only get them until January and they unfortunately left. That made it really difficult to build a team again. I felt like I nearly got there but there wasnt enough time to do it at the end of the season.I dont see any benefits from Cowdenbeath not keeping me on as a manager. I dont see whats going to change for them next year with a different manager. I think I proved this year that I was capable of building a team on a small budget. Unfortunately I lost that in January but I did prove that I can do it. Colin Nish reacts after Cowdenbeath lost to Rangers in the Scottish Cup Nish took Cowdenbeath to the Scottish Cup fourth round this year, where they were drawn against a resurgent Rangers at Ibrox. The tie was subsequently chosen to be live on Sky Sports, but Nish says the occasion was more of a hindrance than a highlight of his managerial career.He said: It was a distraction we didnt need really. And at the time we were going quite well and it was around that time we lost a lot of our players so that was the start of a difficult couple of months.The money the club received didnt do me any good in the long run because in January its hard to sign players so the money will probably be best used now.So I never got any benefit out of that. Im not saying that the club wouldnt have given me any money to strengthen. But hopefully that money benefits the new manager and helps the club bounce back up.
