CLEARWATER, Fla. -- The Philadelphia Phillies rewarded manager Charlie Manuel on Thursday with a two-year contract extension through 2013, his prize for four straight NL East titles, a World Series championship and the teams exceedingly bright future. Hardly a popular choice when first hired, the folksy Manuel has guided the Phillies to the best record in the NL since taking over. Hard-to-please Phillies fans have warmed to his Southern drawl, and hes even had his own bobblehead day at Citizens Bank Park. "Between our players and everything in the organization, the things that developed here, I think we have a good thing going," Manuel said. "This is definitely the place I wanted to stay. I look forward to getting on down the road and seeing if we cant even get better." Manuel turned 67 in January and is baseballs oldest manager. He said he isnt thinking about retiring any time soon. "More than likely Ill probably stay around as long as theyll have me," Manuel said. "I dont think Im going to catch (Penn State football coach Joe) Paterno. Id like to, but hes got a head start on me. But at the same time, I think I made it pretty clear to Ruben, Im not planning on getting out in the near future." General manger Ruben Amaro Jr. said the new deal included reworking Manuels salary for the 2011 season. "Weve basically torn up that contract and made it a three-year deal," Amaro said. Details of the contract werent made public but Manuel will reportedly be paid between US$7 and $8 million total for the 2012 and 2013 seasons. Manuel took over in 2005 and has never had a losing season, winning 88 or more games in five of six years. He and Bobby Cox are the only managers to win four straight NL division titles since baseball split into divisions in 1969. Manuel guided the Phillies in 2008 to their second World Series title in team history -- and first since 1980 -- and led them to another NL pennant the next season. During his tenure, the Phillies have the best record in the NL (544-428). He is fourth among Phillies managers in wins behind Danny Ozark (594), Harry Wright (636) and Gene Mauch (645). In 2010, when six of his eight position players spent time on the disabled list, Manuel guided the Phillies to the best record in the major leagues (97-65). With the addition of Cliff Lee to an already strong rotation, the Phillies enter this season as one of the top favourites to win the World Series. Manuel wasnt the peoples choice when the Phillies hired him as the successor of fiery Phillies shortstop-turned-manager Larry Bowa in the fall of 2004. After interviewing several candidates, including Jim Leyland, Don Baylor and Jim Fregosi, the Phils picked Manuel. The Phils turnaround from pretender to contender, guided by Manuels easy hand, quickly made him a popular figure among a hard-to-please fan base. He has his own local TV and radio shows. "Weve talked about it quite a bit, changing the culture and the mindset, making it a more positive environment ... Charlie deserves credit for this," Amaro said. "Not just for the players, but in regard to everybody, from the clubhouse people, the people on our training staff, it just made it across the board a new, different mindset was created. Instead of the glass being half-empty at times, weve gotten to the point I think where the glass has changed to half-full. "Hes basically the same guy every day in the clubhouse. Just as an employee, and any employee, youd like for someone to be the same every day, and to believe in you and kind of have your back. Thats the thing Charlie exhibits on a day-to-day basis and I think thats gelled very well with our players. And I think thats worked very well for us," he said. Lorenzo Cain Jersey .

It is reasonable, at this point, to assume Steve Delabar will be a member of the relief corps, too. In an era when teams typically carry 12 pitchers (five starters, seven relievers) the math is simple.

Sam Povorozniouk scored twice for the Frontenacs (9-5-3) while Darcy Greenaway, Matthew Watson and Sam Bennett added single goals. McKeown had two assists to go along with his winning goal. LONDON -- Arsenal and Liverpool each opened the English Premier League season on Saturday with disappointing draws. With neither Cesc Fabregas or Samir Nasri in the lineup, the Gunners failed to score against Newcastle and drew 0-0. Ivory Coast forward Gervinho made his competitive debut for Arsenal but failed to score and was sent off with 14 minutes remaining when he slapped Joey Barton, who accused Gervinho of diving inside the area. Liverpool led Sunderland at Anfield through Luis Suarezs 12th-minute goal but the Uruguay striker also missed a penalty and Sebastian Larsson equalized in the 57th to clinch a 1-1 draw. "I think over the game a draw was probably about right," Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish said. Defending champion Manchester United and 2010 champion Chelsea can take an early edge over their regular top-four rivals when they play their first games on Sunday. Queens Park Rangers topflight return after a 15-year absence began on Saturday with a 4-0 home defeat against Bolton on the opening day of the season. With the apparently Barcelona-bound Fabregas missing -- and Nasri left out amid rumours he is about to join Manchester City -- Arsenal rarely threatened to score. Theo Walcott almost won the game for Arsenal within three minutes of going on as a 61st-minute substitute, but goalkeeper Tim Krul saved his goal-bound effort. Barton started the match despite being made to train alone and made available for transfer after criticizing Newcastles continued sale of its top players. Dalglish started the season as Liverpool manager for the first time since 1990 and picked new signings Jordan Henderson, Stewart Downing, Charlie Adam and Jose Enrique to start. Suarez put an early penalty over the bar after he had been fouleed in the area by Kieran Richardson but a bright start by Liverpools much-changed side continued when Suarez headed in Adams free kick.dddddddddddd However, the Reds failed to capitalize on their domination and Larsson volleyed in Ahmed Elmohamadys right-wing cross to clinch an unlikely draw. United opens its title defence at West Bromwich Albion on Sunday, when Chelsea is at Stoke. QPR contributed an own goal, lost new signing Kieron Dyer to a foot injury and had defender Clint Hill sent off in injury time. "It was disappointing how we capitulated at 2-0 and we are going to have to learn lessons quickly," QPR manager Neil Warnock said. "We defended poorly and got punished, which is what happens in the Premier League." QPR lost Dyer, the former England winger signed on a free transfer from West Ham, early on when he fell awkwardly and Bolton took the lead moments before halftime when central defender Gary Cahill scored with a curling shot. Debut-making defender Danny Gabbidon scored an own-goal in the 67th, Ivan Klasnic scored with a deflected shot in the 70th and Fabrice Muamba rounded off a swift counterattack with 11 minutes remaining. Hill was sent off for pushing his head into Martin Petrovs chest. Newly promoted Norwich drew 1-1 at Wigan, Aston Villa drew 0-0 at Fulham and Wolverhampton Wanderers won 2-1 at Blackburn. Midfielder Wes Hoolahan scored a 45th-minute equalizer for Norwich at Wigan, which had led through Ben Watsons early penalty, and Wolves rallied at Blackburn through goals by Steven Fletcher and Stephen Ward. South coast teams Southampton and Brighton share the lead of the second-tier League Championship with a maximum six points after 1-0 wins at Barnsley and Portsmouth respectively. cheap jerseys wholesale jerseys wholesale jerseys cheap nfl jerseys wholesale jerseys Mamadou Tounkara Jersey ' ' '
