PHILADELPHIA -- Phillies manager Pete Mackanin enjoyed watching Jake Thompson pitch on Sunday. That was about it.Thompson pitched seven effective innings, but Philadelphia managed just five hits in a 2-0 loss to Julio Teheran and the Atlanta Braves.It was nice to see, Mackanin said. After his first four outings with us we werent sure about what we were seeing, but his last two outings, especially today, he pitched extremely well.Thompson (1-5) allowed one run and four hits in his second consecutive quality start after a shaky beginning to his big league career. The right-hander struck out six and walked four.Teheran (5-9) allowed five hits in six innings. The right-hander improved to 5-1 with a 1.55 ERA in six career starts in Philadelphia.Everything is coming together, Teheran said. I feel really good. The last two innings I really battled, but I made pitches.Teheran cruised through the first four innings, and then wriggled out of bases-loaded jams in the fifth and sixth. Maikel Franco grounded out for the final out of the fifth and Peter Bourjos lined to right on Teherans final pitch.He was really good, Braves manager Brian Snitker said. That last inning he battled his butt off. Hes healthy now and his velocity is back up. Hes back where he needs to be.Jim Johnson worked the ninth for his 15th save.Matt Kemp, who was acquired in a July 30 trade with San Diego, hit a leadoff drive in the second for his 28th homer. Freddie Freeman added another leadoff drive in the eighth for his 29th of the year.Its never fun to lose, but I thought I threw the ball well other than one bad pitch in the second inning, Thompson said. Its nice to know they have confidence in me to get out of those (tough) situations as well.Like Teheran, Thompson got into a couple of jams but also pitched out of them, getting Nick Markakis to ground into a double play to escape a bases-loaded situation in the sixth and retiring Adonis Garcia on a grounder to third with the bases loaded in the seventh.The loss for the Phillies marked only the fourth time in franchise history that they dropped every game of a homestand of six games or longer. They also did it earlier this season. The other two times were in 1883 and 1964.It was a miserable homestand, Mackanin said. What did we score, 11 runs? Were striking out too much and we dont have a good two-strike approach. We dont have a lot of plate discipline. ... We just need to be more professional at the plate.SURGINGAtlanta center fielder Ender Inciarte extended his hitting streak to 15 games with a single in the sixth inning. ... Freeman extended his hitting streak to 11 games with a double in the fourth. He has reached safely in 27 straight for the longest active streak in the majors. The double was the 200th of his career.PUNCHLESS PHILLIESThe Phillies were shut out for the eighth time this season. They have scored the fewest runs in the majors this season (500).REINFORCEMENTS COMINGAfter shutting down Vince Velazquez following his start Saturday because he reached his innings limit, Phillies general manager Matt Klentak said Alec Asher likely would be recalled to take his place in the rotation. Klentak said he expected about a half-dozen more players to be recalled once the minor league playoff season ends.UP NEXTBraves: RHP Ryan Weber (1-0, 5.24 ERA) opposes Nationals RHP Max Scherzer (15-7, 2.89 ERA) in the opener of a three-game series in Washington on Monday afternoon.Phillies: RHP Jerad Eickhoff (9-13, 3.90 ERA) faces Marlins RHP Jake Esch (0-0, 4.15 ERA) in the first game of a three-game series in Miami on Monday afternoon.Wholesale Football Jerseys China .ca looks back at the stories and moments that made the year memorable.

LE MANS, France -- Audi won the 24 Hours of Le Mans for the fourth straight year Sunday and dedicated its victory to Allan Simonsen of Denmark -- the first driver to die in the showcase endurance race since 1997. Tom Kristensen, Allan McNish and Loic Duval of Audi No. 2 finished one lap ahead of Toyota No. 8 driven by Anthony Davidson, Sebastien Buemi and Stephane Sarrazin. "This one is for Allan Simonsen," a tearful Kristensen said after taking the checkered flag. "A fantastic driver. This is for him." The 34-year-old Simonsen was taken to the hospital after his Aston Martin spun out at high speed Saturday only 10 minutes into the race. He skidded into the barrier at the Tertre Rouge corner, where cars typically reach speeds of up to 105 mph. Simonsen died at the hospital soon after arrival, organizers said. "Obviously, this horrible incident dampens the joy about another great Le Mans victory for Audi," Ullrich said on the teams website. "We were all completely shocked by the news of Allan Simonsens death. This is the first fatal accident weve had to witness in 15 Le Mans years. I hope itll remain the last." After Simonsens accident, Aston Martin Racing stayed in the race at the request of his family. Sebastien Enjolras lost his life during pre-qualifying at Le Mans in 1997. The last driver fatality during the race itself was Jo Gartner in 1986. The worst crash in Le Mans history occurred when Pierre Leveghs Mercedes flew into the crowd in 1955, killing more than 80 spectators. This was Duvals first victory at Le Mans but the third for McNish and the ninth for Kristensen, who extended his record for most titles by a driver. Audi earned its 12th title at Le Mans, four shy of Porsches record. The winning trio completed 348 laps in 24 hours on the 8.5-mile Circuit de la Sarthe. "It was a complicated race," Duval said. "Its a reminder that its a dangerous sport, even though we dont often think about it. It was very emotional. Tom lost his father in March and now hes losing a friend. Thats rough." Fifty-six cars started in the 81st edition of Le Mans, but 13 failed to finish and one car didnt complete a sufficient number of laps to be classified. In the 12th hour, but Canadian driver Tony Burgess managed to walk away from a crash. "The conditions were very tough," said Wolfgang Ullrich, head of Audi Motorsport. "We had to make the right decisions at the right time." At the wheel of Audi No. 3, Olivver Jarvis, Marc Gene and Lucas Di Grassi took third place, one lap off the pace.dddddddddddd Although Audi was much quicker than its Japanese rival, Toyota hoped fuel consumption and tire management could be decisive. But the strategy was thwarted by the changing weather and numerous safety car periods. The safety car came out 11 times, holding up the race for more than five hours. Toyota now has four runner-up finishes at Le Mans but has never won. The only Japanese manufacturer to win was Mazda in 1991. Audi had the top three spots on the grid while Toyota started from fourth and fifth. Toyota briefly hit the front when the Audis pitted in the second hour. But the German manufacturer started dominating the race, regaining the top three spots in the third hour under pouring rain. However, speed is no guarantee of victory. Reliability matters just as much in a competition won by the team that completes the most laps in 24 hours, with up to three drivers alternating. Just when Audi looked irresistible on a track that was drying out, two of its cars faced reliability issues in the seventh hour. Benoit Treluyers Audi No. 1 was stuck in the garage for more than 40 minutes because of technical trouble to fall out of contention, finishing fifth. The Audi No. 3 driven by Jarvis had a puncture and later had his front bodywork changed. Jarvis Audi No. 3 overtook Nicolas Lapierres Toyota No. 7 in the 22nd hour to make the podium. In the next-to-last hour, Lapierre made a mistake, skidding off the slippery track at the Porsche curves to crash into the tire barrier. But Lapierre limped back into the garage and finished fourth. In the 12th hour, Burgess HVM Status GP No. 30 shattered into pieces in a crash. "It was obviously a great relief when we saw him walk away from the accident," HVM Status GP technical director Rob Arnott said. "Many of the components are completely destroyed but the safety cell and everything else stood up to the impact incredibly well and it all absorbed the impact." Martin Plowman, Ricardo Gonzalez and Bertrand Baguette finished seventh overall in Morgan-Nissan No. 35 but topped the LMP2 class. Marc Lieb, Richard Lietz and Romain Dumas won the GTE-Pro class in Porsche No. 92, while Raymond Narac, Christophe Bourret and Jean-Karl Vernay finished first in the GTE-Am category at the wheel of Porsche No. 76. Canadas Kuno Wittmer and his Viper team finished 32nd while Paul Dalla Lana and his Aston Martin team finished 48th. ' ' '
