homers in the first half of the season in consecutive

So, using this information provided, we here at BarDown took it upon ourselves to figure out which one of Rushs former teammates stunk. The criteria we are looking for is a guy who played with Rush, was a rookie at the time, is an international big man and for the cherry on top, also went to college. Immediately eliminated were guys like Paul George, Lance Stephenson and Roy Hibbert, who all fulfilled some criteria, however not enough to be the most likely to be the smelly teammate. We were left with 3 finalists, Festus Ezeli, Rasho Nesterovic and Enes Kanter. So, which one of these 3 fulfilled every single one of our criteria we were looking for? FESTUS EZELI!! Festus Ezeli was a teammate of Brandon Rushs last season with the Golden State Warriors and he is a 7-foot big man. Festus was not only born and raised in Nigeria, which fulfills the overseas category, but heres the kicker, he was also a rookie out of Vanderbilt University! So, based on all the criteria we were looking for, Festus Ezeli was the only player who fulfilled every category, which makes him the MOST LIKELY to be Brandon Rushs former smelly teammate. Sorry Festus, but perhaps there was a good reason you were so wide open in some of these highlights from your rookie season... Nick Young Jersey .

Lavoy Allen Jersey . -- The Detroit Lions made it crystal clear to Golden Tate that he was their top target in free agency.HOUSTON -- The most recent addition to the Red Sox lineup made a big contribution. Rookie Christian Vazquez got his first three major league hits and drove in three runs, while David Ortiz had three RBIs to break open the game in the sixth inning and lead Boston over the Houston Astros 8-3. Vazquez, who was playing in his second big league game, singled in the third inning, had an RBI double in the fourth and drove home two more with a double in a five-run sixth. Fellow rookie Brock Holt doubled and tripled with an RBI and another rookie, Jackie Bradley Jr., added two hits for Boston. "Were playing with a lot of energy," manager John Farrell said. "Guys that have come up recently have injected some of that into us, but more than anything were getting the timely hit." Vazquez was thrilled about his big night and shared the first thing he thought of after collecting his first hit. "My mom," he said. "I was laughing and very happy about that." Ortiz drove in three runs with a double in the sixth to make it 8-1. "The thing that stood out was the number of extra-base hits that (have) been somewhat elusive," Farrell said. "David with a big bases-loaded RBI double, Christian Vazquez with a very solid night all the way around ... just a good offensive showing." John Lackey (10-6) rebounded from a tough stretch to allow four hits and two runs with a season-high five walks in six innings. He had allowed five or more runs in each of his previous three starts. Scott Feldman (4-6) allowed seven runs and tied a season-high with 11 hits in 5 1-3 innings. "It just looks like there is not a lot of finish," Houston manager Bo Porter said. "When he was really good early on in the year, there was finish to the fastball, there was late life, there was sharpness to the breaking ball." Houstons Chris Carter homered twice for his fourth multihomer game of the season and his second this week. He extended his hitting streak to a career-high seven games. Daniel Nava and Bradley got things goiing for the Red Sox in the sixth with consecutive singles.dddddddddddd Feldman intentionally walked Stephen Drew to load the bases with one out. Vazquezs double made it 5-1 and chased Feldman. He was replaced by Darin Downs, who walked Holt to load the bases again. Ortizs bases-clearing double to right-centre came next. Holts RBI triple, which bounced off the bullpen in right-centre and away from L.J. Hoes, gave Boston a 1-0 lead in the third. Dustin Pedroia followed with a double to the corner of left field to make it 2-0. Drew tripled with two outs in the fourth inning before scoring on a ground-rule double by Vazquez to push the lead to 3-0. Lackey walked two batters through the first three innings and two more in the fourth before Houston got its first hit on an RBI single by Enrique Hernandez that cut the lead to 3-1 with two outs. Carters 18th home run landed in the first row in the Crawford Boxes in left field to cut the lead to 8-2 in the sixth. Hes the first Astro to have at least 18 homers in the first half of the season in consecutive years since Lance Berkman in 2008-09. Soon after Carter returned to the dugout following his homer, and as the Astros were still celebrating, a foul ball hit by Robbie Grossman sailed into the dugout and came within inches of hitting Carter in the face. He dropped to the ground after it flew by as his teammates shook their heads at the close call. "I just heard heads up (and) it came right at my head," he said. "I moved, and it hit the wall." He homered again on his next at-bat, launching a 91 mph fastball to left field, where it clanged off the foul pole to make it 8-3 in the eighth and give him six homers in his last seven games. NOTES: Astros OF George Springer was scratched about an hour before the game with discomfort in his right knee. He is listed as day to day. ...
