KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Sean Manaea never threw a pitch for the Kansas City Royals, who drafted him as a competitive balance pick after the first round in 2013.Yet, Manaea was key to the Royals winning the 2015 World Series.The Royals traded the talented hard-throwing left-hander to the Oakland Athletics along with Aaron Brooks for Ben Zobrist on July 28, 2015. Without Zobrists key contributions, the Royals likely would not have won the World Series. Without giving up a valuable asset like Manaea, the trade probably would not have been finalized.On Wednesday, the Royals will face Manaea for the first time. Royals manager Ned Yost saw the glowing reports on Manaea but was not a witness of his prowess.We didnt see much because he was hurt all the time, Yost said. He went to spring training with high expectations and both spring trainings he was hurt and never pitched much. We never got to see him with our own eyes, but just thought if he ever got healthy, hed be a heckuva pitcher.Manaea has not been injury-free with the As his rookie season. He was on the 15-day disabled list in June with a left pronator strain. He was 2-4 with a 6.02 ERA in nine starts when he went on the disabled list. He is 3-5 with a 3.28 ERA in a dozen games, including 11 starts, since coming off the disabled list.Manaea, however, will be pitching for the first time since Aug. 29, when he left a 6-0 loss at Houston after 3 1/3 innings with a strained left rhomboid after giving up two runs on one hit and two walks while striking out four.As manager Bob Melvin will be cautious with Manaea in his first outing back.I dont like to go out there and say potential pitch count, Melvin said. Its going to be how he feels, and ups are just as important, potentially, as pitches, but it wont be a full complement like weve seen in the past.Manaea has never won on the road. He is 0-6 with a 6.44 ERA and opponents hitting .302 off him in eight away starts. His career-opening road losing streak matches the longest in Oakland history. Mike Morgan lost six straight road decisions from June 17, 1978, to July 24, 1979.Overall, Manaea is 5-9 with a 4.40 ERA, striking out 104 and walking 32, while allowing 120 hits, including 19 home runs, in 120 2/3 innings.The Royals have lost their Kauffman Stadium magic, losing six of their past seven home games.They will counter with right-hander Yordano Ventura, who yielded a season-high 10 hits to the Chicago White Sox in losing his previous start Friday. Ventura is 0-1 with a 6.75 ERA against the Athletics in his previous two outings. He has not faced them since April 18, 2015, falling 5-0 at Kansas City.Ventura is 6-3 with a 4.09 ERA this season at Kauffman Stadium, but he has made just three home starts since the All-Star break. He is 2-1 with a 2.55 ERA in those starts. Fake Air Jordan 1 Bred .

Bangladeshs first-class competition, the National Cricket League, has been postponed till the end of the Bangladesh Premier League T20 tournament, which ends on December 9. Three rounds of NCL matches in both the first and second tier were held before October 11, but rain affected every match in the third round.The BCB had announced that matches from the fourth round onwards, scheduled for October 14 to 17, were to be put off until the weather improved. But while the weather did improve, the NCL was shelved because of the impending BPL, which begins on November 4.All Tier-1 NCL matches that began on September 25 had ended in rain-curtailed draws and only two Tier-2 matches yielded results. Barisal Division were leadingg Tier-1 with 23 points while Rajshahi Division, with 33, were on top of Tier-2.ddddddddddddThe NCL is set to restart in mid-December but will be without Bangladeshs international players, who will be in Australia for a camp before the tour of New Zealand.The postponement of the NCL came following calls for better first-class cricket in Bangladesh, especially after the senior teams 22-run loss in the Chittagong Test against England. Bangladesh were mostly competitive in that match but problems with their fast bowling raised questions about the standard of first-class cricket in the country. ' ' '
