HOUSTON -- Tampa Bays Matt Moore shut down Houston on Monday night for his 11th win. The Rays are impressed with his performance thus far, but believe the 24-year-old can do much more. Moore allowed two hits in seven scoreless innings, and Ryan Roberts homered twice to give the Rays a 12-0 win over the Astros. "Hes going to continue to get better," manager Joe Maddon said. "Thats his 11th win right there and were still talking about the little foibles that he may have, yes. But to his credit he knows that and he knows that theres room for improvement, and because he does hes going to continue to get better." Moore (11-3) won his third straight decision and Cesar Ramos pitched two perfect innings to complete the two-hitter and help the Rays win their third in a row. He credited a lot of his success on Monday to his curveball. "Yeah it was pretty good," he said. "It was definitely one of those things I could use later in the count pretty consistently without fear." Roberts made it 3-0 with a two-run homer in the third inning off Dallas Keuchel (4-5) and tacked on another run with a solo shot in the eighth inning. It was his second two home run game of the season and the third of his career. "We know everybody can hit on this team, and to see the guys come out and do it tonight, it was awesome to be a part of," Roberts said. Sean Rodriguez had a career-high four hits -- two doubles -- with three RBIs and three other Rays added three hits apiece on a night they tied a season high in scoring and finished with 17 hits. Chris Carter and Jake Elmore got Houstons only hits with singles as the last-place Astros dropped their fourth game in a row. "It was just a tough, frustrating game watching them score the runs and just being on defence all day and watching it happen," Carter said. "Moore was tough today ... A lot of quick innings out of him and then we were on defence for a long time. It makes it tough." Moore, who moved into a tie for second in wins among AL pitchers, struck out nine and walked three to tie his win total from last season when he finished 11-11. Keuchel yielded eight hits and five runs with five walks in 4 2-3 innings. Paul Clemens couldnt slow the Rays down either, allowing five hits and four runs over the next two innings. Wil Myers walked to start the third before a double by Ben Zobrist. The Rays took a 1-0 lead on a sacrifice fly by James Loney with one out and Roberts extended the lead to 3-0. Yunel Escobar drew a one-out walk in the fifth and Ryan Roberts singled with two outs. Jose Lobatons groundball single scored Escobar to make it 4-0. Sam Fulds RBI single left Tampa Bay up 5-0 and chased Keuchel. Houston didnt get a hit until Elmore singled with two outs in the third. But Moore struck out Jose Altuve to end that inning. He got into a bit of trouble in the fourth when Jason Castro walked with no outs before advancing to third on a single by Carter. He escaped the jam by striking out J.D. Martinez before Matt Dominguez grounded into a double play. Moore sat down the next nine batters he faced before being replaced by Ramos for the eighth inning. "I think we just kind of got on rhythm and got on a good pace," Moore said. "There were a lot of strike ones which we followed up with strike two. We werent trying to mess around too much tonight." Loney extended his hitting streak to 12 games with a one-out single in the seventh. The Rays then hit five consecutive singles, with the last four driving in a run each, to push the lead to 9-0. The Astros replaced Clemens with Hector Ambriz after the fourth hit in that stretch, but the trouble didnt end. Ambriz allowed the fifth single before walking Zobrist to load the bases. Houston finally got out of the inning when Escobar, the 10th batter of the inning, grounded out. NOTES: Tampa Bay 3B Evan Longoria was out of the lineup for the third straight game with plantar fasciitis in his right foot, but the Rays dont plan on placing him on the disabled list. He took ground balls before the game Monday. Maddon said he felt better on Monday and they hope he can play sometime in the four-game series in Houston. "Its still a day by day situation," he said. "We think that we might be able to get him back somehow, some way. Well just wait and see. But overall, not so bad."... AL Cy Young winner David Price is scheduled return from his first-ever stint on disabled list and start for the Rays on Tuesday. He has missed 44 games with a left triceps strain. Maddon said hell be more concerned with how Price feels on Tuesday than in the results. "If we could get six innings out of him that would be outstanding," Maddon said. "Primarily lets just wish him good health and the fact that were beyond the problem. Because if he stays well and is able to pitch on a regular basis, hes going to put up good numbers."... The Astros expect 1B/DH Carlos Pena to be back with the team on Tuesday after he missed two games to be with his family in the Dominican Republic following the drowning death of his nephew. ...

The 10 wins matched their total last season when they won the NFC East, and they had a one-game lead in the division before losses to Seattle, Dallas and Washington made Sundays finale meaningless.Its a bittersweet thing because were not in the playoffs, Eagles centre Jason Kelce said. It wasnt like we had a terrible season: 10-6 is pretty good in the NFL.

New York (6-10) had won three straight.Now the question is what happens to Coughlin, whos led the Giants to two Super Bowl titles in his 11 seasons. If he stays, which players and coaches go?Were going to evaluate our team, just like we always do, Coughlin said. Well present our information of the pro personnel to the owners and if theres anything else, itll be initiated by ownership. Im going to go about my business until Im told otherwise.Coughhlin refused to say whether he intends to make changes if he returns after a season that he described as disappointing.dddddddddddd.How else do you want me to say it? the 68-year-old coach said. Not enough wins, too many losses.Sanchez was 23 of 36 for 292 yards, including touchdowns of 44 yards to rookie Jordan Matthews and 1 yard to tight end Brent Celek on the Eagles first two possessions. Cody Parkay made two field goals, with the last giving the Eagles an eight-point lead after Beckhams latest dazzling play got New York within five. Chris Polk also scored on a 1-yard run.Allen then sealed the game with his interception and return deep into Giants territory.Eli Manning finished 28 of 53 for 429 yards, with Rueben Randle also having a big day, catching six passes for 158 yards.Rookie Andre Williams scored on a 1-yard run on New Yorks first possession, but the Giants struggled in the red zone after that, settling for four field goals by Josh Brown, the longest from 53 yards.The big play for the Eagles was the blocked punt by James Casey, who broke free up the middle. Burton picked up the ball and returned it down the sideline. The Eagles have scored TDs on three returns of blocked punts, two kickoff returns and two punt returns.NOTES: Beckham finished with team highs of 91 catches for 1,305 yards and 12 touchdowns in only 12 games.
