HAMILTON, Ont. -- Quarterback Henry Burris is hoping to turn the Hamilton Tiger-Cats season around a game at a time. Burris threw three touchdowns in Hamiltons emphatic 51-8 win over the Edmonton Eskimos on Saturday, ending the Tiger-Cats five-game losing streak and keeping them in the CFLs playoff picture. "I take it one step at a time," he said. "Its definitely the direction that we want to go." After an inconsistent first half, Hamilton overcame an early eight-point deficit to score 51 unanswered points, including 35 in the second half. The Tiger-Cats improved to 4-7. Edmonton, which would currently bump Hamilton out of a playoff spot in a crossover, has lost three straight and falls to 5-6. Hamilton now has two games coming up against division opponents in their fight to get back in the playoff hunt. "We really needed this game and more importantly to get the season started right for ourselves at this point playing at home because if youre going to make the playoffs, youve got to be able to win the games at home," said Burris, who completed 23 of 33 pass attempts for 418 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions. Jerome Messam scored Edmontons lone touchdown while Bakari Grant, Dave Stala, Andy Fantuz, Chris Williams, Avon Cobourne and Dee Webb all scored for Hamilton. Hamiltons Luca Congi kicked all three field-goal attempts in the second quarter, from 10, 22 and 45 yards. Edmonton kicker Grant Shaw missed his lone attempt from 48 yards and back-up Brody McKnight, acquired this week, was blocked on his 48-yard attempt. Edmonton quarterback Kerry Joseph, whom head coach Kavis Reed later said had been playing at just 80 per cent, was replaced by Steven Jyles with six minutes left in the third quarter. Jyles, in turn, was replaced soon after by Matt Nichols. But Joseph came back on the field when Nichols went down with an injury to end the third. Jyles returned with four minutes left in the fourth and was intercepted by Webb with 1:42 left in the game on a pass intended for Fred Stamps. Webb returned it 98 yards for the touchdown and the final score. Both Joseph and coach Reed called the result an embarrassment. "We did not do our franchise any justice tonight," Reed said. "The way we performed was not average. It was not mediocre, it was not very good." The Hamilton defence held Edmonton to 365 yards net offence -- just 56 on the ground. "Whenever something like this happens, whenever it goes bad it is absolutely my fault," Reed said. "One hundred per cent me. I have to look at what Im doing how Im doing it and who Im doing it with. "Its absolutely on me." Cobourne, who has been relegated to back-up running back this season, started the game in place of an injured Chevon Walker. Cobourne carried the ball 18 times for 121 yards and a touchdown. Hamilton took a 16-8 lead into the half when Webb blocked McKnights field goal attempt and the ball was picked up by Grant and run back 58 yards with time expired in the first half. "To score that touchdown, threw the momentum hugely in our favour right before the half," said Ticats head coach George Cortez. "Its always positive to win," he added. "It always gives you, I hate to say momentum because thats a game-to-game thing, it gives you confidence that you can get the task accomplished." Burris was also talking about confidence. The Ticat offence, which has become renowned for poor third-quarter showings this season, made adjustments at the half and came out firing, scoring 21 points in the next 15 minutes of play. "Those first two drives in the third quarter were pretty big for us," Burris said. "We were able to go down the field and put points on the board. Thats the way weve got to play with all this talent that we have and now, hopefully, with this extra confidence were going to get from this game it will allow us to focus on the little things we didnt do well, like the two interceptions." Burris needed just two plays on their first possession in the third to find Stala tangled up with Edmonton cornerback Rod Williams on the sidelines. Stala hung onto the ball, escaped Williams grasp, and ran 87 yards for the TD. On their next possession, Burris was intercepted by Joe Burnett at the Edmonton 12-yard line. But the Hamilton defence held and when the Eskimos gambled on third-and-one, the Ticats pushed back Messam for a loss of one. That allowed Hamilton to take over on the Edmonton 21. Burris hit Fantuz in the endzone on the next play and Hamilton was up 30-8. "Anytime you stop them on third and short and they try to run the ball, thats a big play for your defence," said Ticats linebacker Rey Williams who felt his squad, which has struggled all season, played more aggressively than usual for an entire 60 minutes to make the difference. "I give them credit for how they played," said Reed about the Hamilton defence. "They were very well prepared. They defended very well. The things they tried to do, they got a lot of pressure on our quarterback. But we did not execute. We did not execute to give ourselves a chance to score." With 2:23 left in the third, Burris hit Williams for a 25-yard TD and the 37-8 lead. In the fourth, Cobourne scored his first rushing TD of the season with a 12-yard run, capping off a 105-yard drive that took 5:41 off the clock. Coach Factory Outlet.

MIAMI -- Jason Heyward came up short, and so did the Atlanta Braves bid for a comeback win. Jose Reyes blooped a two-out RBI single in front of a diving Heyward in right field in the 10th inning Tuesday night, and the Miami Marlins overcame an awful ninth inning to snap the Braves four-game winning streak with a 4-3 victory. With one out in the 10th, pinch-hitter Rob Brantly was walked by Cory Gearrin (0-1), and Gorkys Hernandez was hit by a pitch. Following a strikeout, Reyes hit a 3-2 pitch, and when Hayward went sprawling, Brantly scored without a play. "Reyes just happened to put some bat on a ball and bloop one in there," Atlanta manager Fredi Gonzalez said. The Braves lost to Miami for only the fourth time in 14 meetings despite rallying from a 3-0 deficit in the ninth to tie the game. "We played them strange, and then we win and its all fine," Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen said. "Oh boy, what a way to do it." Heyward doubled to start the ninth against Steve Cishek, and Chipper Jones walked on a 3-2 pitch. With one out, Dan Uggla singled home a run, and Brian McCann followed with a two-run double off Mike Dunn to tie the score. Dunn struck out Michael Bourn with runners at the corners to end the inning. "We fought back to tie it up," McCann said. "All you can ask is for everybody to play hard. Thats what we did, and it didnt go our way." The Braves rally spoiled a career-best outing by Nathan Eovaldi of the Marlins. He allowed no runs and only four hits while pitching eight innings for the first time. Eovaldi, a 22-year-old rookie, had lost his last four starts and came into the game with the lowest winning percentage of any NL pitcher at 4-12. But he permitted just two runners to reach second base. "He was throwing 97 (mph), 98 even in the eighth inning, and he was commanding," Gonzalez said. "Nasty." "A very spectacular game for him," Guillen said. The Braves were so flummoxed by Eovaldi that slugger Heyward bunted with two outs and none on in the sixth. He reached on a sinngle but was stranded.dddddddddddd Atlantas Paul Maholm allowed four hits and two runs in 6 2-3 innings. "Their guy was on his game," Maholm said. "We battled back and did everything we could." John Buck hit a two-run homer, tripled and scored twice for Miami. Heath Bell (3-5) pitched a perfect 10th. The Marlins improved to 11-5 in extra-inning games; theyre 55-78 otherwise. The game began with the retractable roof open for the eighth time this season, and the first since June 13. The roof was closed when light rain began to fall in the fifth inning. Buck hit his first triple of the season in the third inning and scored on a two-out single by Hernandez. Center fielder Bourn misplayed Bucks deep drive, pulling up short of the wall near the 418-foot sign and then leaping in vain for the ball. "I think he went so far back that he felt like the wall had to be close there, and it kind of threw him off," Gonzalez said. The Marlins added two runs in the seventh. Austin Kearns doubled with two outs, and Maholm was replaced by Peter Moylan, who gave up Bucks 11th homer. The Marlins played without slugger Giancarlo Stanton, who missed his second consecutive game with a strained muscle in his side. Hes expected to rejoin the starting lineup Friday.

Brantly, a rookie C who threw out a base stealer for the first time in his career Monday, sheepishly admitted he missed a pickoff sign from the dugout before the pitch. "Hes a kid," Guillen said. "He does stuff that makes you laugh." ' ' '
