LOS ANGELES -- San Francisco Giants centre fielder Angel Pagan is scheduled for left hamstring surgery on Tuesday and could miss the rest of the season. Brandon Brooks Jersey . The announcement was made by manager Bruce Bochy before the defending World Series champions opened a three-game series with the last-place Dodgers on Monday. The procedure to repair a tendon will be performed by Dodgers team physician Neal ElAttrache at the Kerlan-Jobe Clinic in Los Angeles, and Pagan is expected be out at least another 12 weeks. Pagan, who turns 32 on July 2, signed a four-year, $40 million contract in December after helping the Giants win their second World Series title in three years. He is batting .262 with three home runs and 24 RBIs. Gregor Blanco and Juan Perez, who was promoted from the minors on June 7, have shared time in centre with Pagan out. Blanco started the series opener in Los Angeles. Also Monday, the Giants recalled reliever George Kontos from Triple-A Fresno and optioned right-hander Jean Machi to their Pacific Coast League club. Right-hander Chad Gaudin was placed on the 15-day DL because of a bruised elbow and lefty Mike Kickham was recalled from Fresno. Pagan hasnt played since his inside-the-park homer lifted San Francisco to a 6-5 victory over the Colorado Rockies on May 25. He sustained a small tear when he aggravated the leg injury during a rehab game with Class A San Jose on Thursday night. He then met with team orthopedist Dr. Ken Akizuki and opted to get a second opinion. "After getting the second opinion, the consensus was that surgerys the best option right now," Bochy said. It was the latest dose of bad news for the Giants, who entered Monday trailing NL West-leading Arizona by three games. It came on the same day they reinstated slugging third baseman Pablo Sandoval from the disabled list after he missed 14 games because of an injured left foot. Kontos was optioned to the minors on June 11, the day he received a three-game suspension for throwing a pitch at Pittsburghs Andrew McCutchen. He is appealing the penalty and is eligible to play until his case is heard by Major League Baseball. Gaudin was struck by a line drive on Thursday, and Kickham will make his second major league start on Tuesday night in his place. He made his major league debut May 28 in Oakland, giving up four runs, four hits and four walks in 2 1-3 innings. Alshon Jeffery Jersey . And theyre pointing to the NHLs biggest market: Toronto.

After a dominant first in which the Bruins scored only once on 18 shots, Boston overcame sloppiness in the second and scored three times en route to a 6-3 victory Monday night. The line of Patrice Bergeron, Brad Marchand and Reilly Smith combined for three goals and six assists to power the Bruins offence that has scored 12 goals in two games. "Were expected to do a job out there," said Marchand, who had a goal and three assists. "We got contributions from every line. Thats how we win games and what makes us so tough to play against." The Bruins have had trouble with the Islanders this season, dropping the first two meetings before avoiding a series sweep Monday. Boston, which has won four of five (4-0-1), is not used to a speed game. The Islanders used that element to offset the bigger Bruins, who took four leads before putting New York away. "It wasnt the type of game that we like to play," said Bergeron, who had a goal and an assist. "They are a team that likes that. That run-and-gun type of game is not really our style." Loui Eriksson, Carl Soderberg and hulking defenceman Zdeno Chara added goals for the Bruins. Chad Johnson gave Tuukka Rask the night off and made 34 saves. Charas goal 8:12 into the third made it 6-3 and chased Kevin Poulin from the net in favour of Evgeni Nabokov, who came off the injured list earlier Monday following his second groin injury. The goal was the 500th NHL point for Chara, chosen by the Islanders in the third round of the 1996 draft. "I am very fortunate to play in this league for so many years," Chara said. "Points have always been secondary in my view, but if I can contribute offensively it is a big plus." Kyle Okposo, moved off the top line, had a goal and two assists for the Islanders, and Frans Nielsen and Michael Grabner also scored for New York, which lost its third straight (0-2-1) heading into its outdoor game at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday against the Rangers. Poulin made 30 saves. "We played well but didnt bury enough changes," Okposo said. "We have to get over this loss and come back strong against the Rangers." The Bruins recorded 18 of the first 20 shots. Erikssson made it 1-0 at 7:47 when he scored his sixth goal and first in 12 games, dating to Nov. Mychal Kendricks Jersey. 25. Momentum shifted with 7:50 left in the first when the Islanders received their first power play. They didnt convert, but found their game. The Islanders got four of their 12 first-period shots during that power play and got even when Nielsen netted his 18th goal with 4:31 left. New York started the second period on the power play after Chara took a penalty for throwing a retaliation punch at Cal Clutterbuck. But again the Islanders fell behind. Marchand made it 2-1 at 4:50 when he took a pass in the left circle from Bergeron and lifted in a shot. The Islanders answered again, taking advantage of a turnover in the Boston zone by Gregory Campbell. During a delayed penalty, Okposo made a pass into the middle to Grabner for his ninth goal and second in three games, scored at 8:20. "That power play really gave them momentum, and we finished on our heels in the first," Bruins coach Claude Julien said. "From that point on until the end of the second period, I thought we got really sloppy and shot ourselves in the foot." The Bruins went ahead 3-2 at 12:21 during another delayed penalty. Shawn Thorntons pass hit New Yorks Matt Martin and caromed to Smith, who tapped in his 17th goal. Another Bruins breakdown cost Boston the lead again. Defenceman Dougie Hamilton leaped at the blue line to knock down a puck, but missed. The speedy Grabner took off and was joined by Okposo, who came out of the penalty box. They came in on a 2-on-0 break and passed the puck back and forth before Okposo slammed in his 23rd goal with 4:52 left. It appeared the teams would be tied to start the third, but Soderberg steamed in on the right wing, got around defenceman Thomas Hickey and beat Poulin with 32.7 seconds remaining. The Bruins posted their first two-goal lead when Bergeron slammed in a feed from Marchand at 2:17 of the third. "We cant panic," said Islanders captain John Tavares, who had a six-game point streak snapped. "Have to trust each other in this room." NOTES: Okposo has seven goals and eight assists since his daughter was born earlier this month. ... The Islanders activated D Lubomir Visnovsky off the injured list. ... Rask is expected to start Tuesday when the Bruins host Florida. Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale NFL Jerseys Jerseys From China Wholesale NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
