    Serena Williams beat Flavia Pennetta in straight sets Wednesday night to reach the semifinals of the U.S. Open. The top-seeded Williams, playing in her first Grand Slam quarterfinal of the year, overcame a slow start to post a 6-3, 6-2 victory over the 11th-seeded Italian at Arthur Ashe Stadium. Williams stormed back to take the first set, winning six straight games after Pennetta earned two breaks while jumping out to a 3-0 lead. The 32-year-old American star broke Pennettas serve twice in the second set and won when Pennetta netted a return on match point. Williams kept her hopes alive for a third straight Flushing Meadows title and sixth overall. She is the first player to advance to the semifinals at the U.S. Open aged 32 or older since Martina Navratilova in 1991. Pennetta, who was bidding to reach her second career Grand Slam semifinal, fell to 0-6 against Williams and 2-8 against world No. 1s. Williams next plays Russian Ekaterina Makarova. The 17th-seeded Makarova secured a berth in her first-ever Grand Slam semifinal with a mild upset over two-time runner-up Victoria Azarenka. Makarova doused Azarenka 6-4, 6-2 in 1 hour, 27 minutes at Ashe Stadium. The Belarusian star Azarenka piled up six double faults and was broken four times on Day 10 of the fortnight. Unusually low-key for most of the match, Azarenka smashed her racquet after a crucial unforced error gave Makarova a break and a 4-2 lead in the second set. The left-handed Makarova is now 3-3 lifetime against Azarenka, including 1-1 at the majors. The former world No. 1 Azarenka is having trouble re-locating her once- formidable game after returning to action in June after being sidelined with a foot injury for three months. The 26-year-old Moscow native Makarova has played in at least the quarterfinals at four of the last eight and five of the last 12 Grand Slam events. She has yet to drop a set at the 2014 U.S. Open. Azarenka had won 16 of her previous 18 matches in Flushing and by failing to reach the semifinals this week, she will now drop out of the top 20. She lost to Williams in the U.S. Open final the past two years. Gustav Olofsson Jersey. He even addressed his group of relievers Sunday morning.

Toronto Star baseball columnist and TSN contributor Richard Griffin joins me for a half-hour of talk on manager John Gibbons strategy when it comes to his starting pitching and struggling bullpen, whether Brett Lawrie will see increased action at second base and Jose Bautistas great start to the season. Give it a listen here. GIBBONS LIKES HIS OFFENCE The Blue Jays entered Thursdays action with 166 runs scored in 34 games. Thats an average of almost 4.9 runs per game, good for fourth in the majors. Manager John Gibbons is in his seventh season, over two tenures skipping the Blue Jays. He believes this is the strongest offence hes had. "I would think this is probably the top," said Gibbons. "My last go around here we were really strong in the pitching department. We had some good offences but I dont think it equaled what we have here now. You need that in the American League. You need to be able to slug it out." Toronto boasts the league leader in on-base plus slugging percentage (OPS) and walks. Hes Jose Bautista. Bautista and Colby Rasmus, with nine home runs each, are amongst the league leaders. Melky Cabreras 48 hits are the most in the sport this season. As a team, the Blue Jays rank second in home runs (44); second in slugging percentage (.432) and third in on-base plus slugging percentage (.761). ENCARNACION DISCUSSES FRANCISCO General manager Alex Anthopoulos has credited Edwin Encarnacion with helping to lure Juan Francisco to the Blue Jays. "Ive known Juan from a long time ago, he was playing with me in Cincinnati," said Encarnacion. "When he was young, I was older in here and hes one of my best friends. He had a couple of more (options) to go so I called him and asked him to come here because they can give him the opportunity to play here at this level.dddddddddddd" Francisco, 26, hit 18 home runs last season while playing with the Braves and Brewers but was cut by Milwaukee late in spring training. He signed a minor league deal with the Blue Jays on April 2 and began the year at Triple-A Buffalo. His contract was selected on April 20 to replace Adam Lind, who went on the disabled list with a back injury. Aside from the opportunity the Blue Jays could afford him, Encarnacion was pressed Francisco to come to Toronto out of fear he would sign with another American League East team. The division, specifically the ballparks in the division, are friendly to power-hitting left-handed bats. "Thats why I dont want him to go to another team, like Tampa or another team," said Encarnacion. SANTOS STARTING FROM SCRATCH Sergio Santos pitched a scoreless eighth inning in Wednesdays 10-0 win over the Phillies. Thanks to the big lead it was a pressure-free inning. After two-straight outings featuring blown saves and three on the season, Santos is in the process of rebuilding his confidence. "It was nice to execute on the things that I wanted to do as far as locating my fastball, moving it in and out," said Santos. "It was nice. Its a nice first step, hopefully in the right direction." His stuff is good. Santos has struck out 18 hitters in 10 1/3 innings. The problem is hes walked nine and of the 12 hits hes allowed, three have been home runs. Santos expects more of himself. "Hopefully I can build off what happened (Wednesday) night and never look back again," he said. LAWRIE UPDATE Brett Lawrie took part in batting practice and fielded ground balls before Thursdays game. He left the fourth inning of Monday nights game in Philadelphia with lingering tightness in his right hamstring. Fridays game against the Angels may be more hopeful than reality. Lawries more likely to return on the weekend. Wholesale Jerseys ' ' '
