BUDAPEST, Hungary -- Canada will play for gold at the under-18 womens world hockey championship. Team captain Lauren Wildfang scored in overtime Saturday to lift the Canadians to a 1-0 victory over Russia in the semifinals. Canadian coach Laura Schuler was pleased with her players poise throughout a tense game that she said was the perfect preparation for Sundays gold-medal match. "The Russians played absolutely outstanding, and I think that their level of play really forced us to bring our game to a new level, and I was really happy with that," Schuler said. "Obviously, being in such a tight game, for us we faced some adversity and it was good pressure to have before going into the gold-medal game, to face that kind of adversity, that kind of pressure." The Canadians will face the winner of Saturdays other semifinal between the United States and the Czech Republic. Canada beat the Czechs 5-0 in the preliminary round. The Canadians, who earned a bye into the semis, outshot the Russians 70-24, but couldnt put anything past Russias netminder Valeria Tarakanova through 60 minutes of regulation. "We had numerous, numerous chances to put the puck in the net and their goalie played outstanding," Schuler said. "For us on the bench, we knew it was just going to be a matter of time before we were able to capitalize, and just really happy with the energy on the bench overall. The kids knew it, they came off each shift with smiles on their faces, like Aw, we almost had it there. I think that helped us going into overtime, just building our energy. "I was just happy with how they responded, they embraced the challenge and they just kept believing. It was great to see." Wildfang finally scored the winner 3:09 into overtime. "We were all crashing the net, and I took a shot and I just got my own rebound and it trickled in," Wildfang said. "Throughout the whole game, we stuck to our systems and I think thats why we became successful today. We didnt lose sight of the goal and we didnt lose sight of our game plan." Shea Tiley got the shutout for Canada. Womens NMD Shoes Canada . Now Arizonas new manager is hoping Yasmany Tomas can have the same effect on the Diamondbacks. NMD Canada Online .

BOSTON -- Anthony Ranaudo and a lineup loaded with rookies gave the Boston Red Sox reason to be optimistic for next season. Starting seven rookies for the first time since 1971, when Hall of Famer Carlton Fisk was a September call-up, the Red Sox beat Tampa Bay 11-3 on Wednesday night. "Youth is served," Red Sox manager John Farrell said. "This is a talented group. Weve got the opportunity to give them experience." Garin Cecchini hit his first major league home run to help the fifth-place Boston Red Sox beat the fourth-place Rays. Ranaudo (4-3) settled down after spotting Tampa Bay two runs in the first, allowing two runs on six hits and a walk and striking out two to snap a three-game losing streak. "I think this is a really good building block for me to take home for the off-season," said Ranaudo (4-3), "I realized I needed to go deep into this game and really competed. Thats just what I tried to do." The victory was the 69th of the season for the defending AL East and World Series champions, who need one more win to beat their total from 2012 -- their only season under Bobby Valentine. It was their most rookie-laden lineup since Sept. 25, 1971, when the Red Sox beat the Washington Senators 6-3 and sent former Cy Young winner Denny McLain to his 22nd loss of the season. The Red Sox twice batted around, scoring five runs in the fourth inning and four more in the sixth, when they drew five walks -- three with the bases loaded. Jake Odorizzi (11-13) allowed five runs on seven hits, walking three and striking out three in three-plus innings. In all, six Rays pitchers allowed 10 hits and nine walks. "This is one of those blips on the pitching radar that we didnt see coming," Rays manager Joe Maddon said. "Jake had a hard time; the relievers had a hard time too. It was beyond them beating us up with hits. We just walked too many." It was 2-all in the bottom of the fourth with two on and nobody out when Mookie Betts singled to load the bases and chase Odorizzi. Xander Bogaerts singled to drive in two runs and Daniel Nava doubled to bring home two more.dddddddddddd. Brandon Gomes got the next two batters before walking Cecchini on a wild pitch that moved Nava to third. Another wild pitch allowed Nava to score, and then Rusney Castillo walked before Gomes got Bryce Brentz on a grounder to end the inning. FREE PASSES The Red Sox scored three runs on walks, one on a wild pitch and one on a passed ball. With the bases loaded in the sixth, Steve Geltzs 3-2 pitch to Betts got past Jose Molina to the backstop, scoring Cecchini on the walk and allowing Castillo to come around from second and score on the passed ball. LOSERS The Rays had posted six consecutive winning seasons, but Wednesdays loss guaranteed them of a losing record for the year. "Its no fun to be in this position," Maddon said. "For us, its not acceptable. We expect to be in the playoffs on an annual basis and compete for the World Series on an annual basis and it did not happen."
