Eskimos head coach Kavis Reed announced the decision at a news conference discussing the teams final roster. "Weve decided, as a coaching staff, that were going to go with Steven Jyles as our starting quarterback for the Toronto Argonauts game on June 30," Reed said, according to a story in the Edmonton Journal. "Not that Kerry could not lead our football team," Reed qualified. "But for all of the things immediate and in the near and distant future, Steven Jyles is the option that we chose." "Will Kerry be in there sometimes? Absolutely, but thats not going to be something we look to split time in, Reed continued, according to the Edmonton Journal. "Steven is our quarterback, but there will be opportunities for Kerry during the football game." Jyles and Joseph split reps in training camp and pre-season fairly evenly. Jyles was acquired from the Argonauts, along with K Grant Shaw and the second-overall draft pick, in exchange for longtime Eskimos QB Ricky Ray. NHL Jerseys China .

Wholesale NHL Jerseys .C. -- Seth Curry kept burying shots against helpless North Carolina defenders to give No.DETROIT -- After watching his Detroit Tigers avoid a series sweep with a nice rally, manager Jim Leyland admitted his team has a lot to prove right now. The Tigers have developed an unpleasant habit of fading in the second half, so there was an antsy vibe around Comerica Park when they lost two straight to Chicago immediately after the All-Star break. "Were not hiding from that," Leyland said. "The only way you quiet that down is to do what we did today -- go win games." Carlos Guillen hit a tiebreaking RBI single in Detroits three-run sixth inning, leading the Tigers to a 4-3 win over the White Sox on Sunday. Detroit came back from an early 3-0 deficit. The Tigers havent played above-.500 baseball after the all-star break since 2000, and they dropped the first two games of this series by a combined 13-2. Chicago led 3-1 on Sunday before Victor Martinez tied it with a two-run single in the sixth. Jhonny Peralta then singled, and Guillen followed with a line drive to right field that drove in Martinez. Detroits Brad Penny (7-6) allowed three runs and nine hits in 6 2-3 innings. Three relievers finished for the Tigers, with Jose Valverde working the ninth for his 25th save in 25 chances. Detroit moved into a virtual tie for first place with Cleveland, which lost at Baltimore. The Tigers had the Indians-Orioles game on in their clubhouse after their victory. Phil Humber (8-6) allowed four runs and seven hits in 5 2-3 innings for the White Sox. He struck out eight and walked one. Penny laboured early on a hot afternoon, giving up three runs in the second. Alex Rios hit an RBI double, A.J. Pierzynski added a sacrifice fly and Gordon Beckham singled in a run. But Penny was able to settle down after that. He ended up throwing only 78 pitches. "Some teams are different. Those guys are really aggressive, and theyre doing me a favour by swinging first and second pitch every time," Penny said. "Im throwing strikes, and theyre helping my pitch count, when they had me a little bit on the ropes in the second inning." The first time the Tigeers hosted the White Sox this season, Detroit outscored Chicago 21-3 in a three-game sweep. NHL Jerseys From China. . The White Sox seemed ready to return the favour, but Humber ran out of steam. Brennan Boeschs solo homer in the fourth made it 3-1, and Andy Dirks led off the Detroit sixth with a hard-hit ball that shortstop Alexei Ramirez deflected but couldnt stop. Dirks hustled all the way to second as the ball rolled into short centre field, and Magglio Ordonez walked one out later. Miguel Cabrera hit a grounder to Ramirez, but with the runners moving, Chicago couldnt turn a double play. "If he hits a line drive at the third baseman, I look like a fool, but you dont manage like that," Leyland said. "That was the right play, and fortunately it worked out good for us, but it wasnt anything that 30 out of 30 managers wouldnt have done, in my opinion." Martinez came up with men on second and third and two out. His single brought home both runners when right fielder Carlos Quentin overran the ball slightly. "I really wouldnt change anything I threw, but they have great hitters and they got some hits off me," Humber said. "You just have to tip your cap to them." Humber left after Peraltas hit, and Guillen followed with a clutch base hit off Chris Sale. Quentin tried to play the ball on a short hop, but it bounced off him and went several feet away. Martinez scored easily. Al Alburquerque relieved Penny with two on and two out in the seventh and got Paul Konerko to fly out to centre. Joaquin Benoit struck out two in a perfect eighth for the Tigers. Penny struck out two and walked one. "That was probably one of the worst games Ive thrown in a long time, for me," he said. "That wasnt a great game for me by any means." NOTES: The White Sox confirmed LHP John Danks is slated to start Wednesday night at Kansas City, although the team did not make a roster move.
