CHASKA, Minn. -- Phil Mickelson was such a strong figure in the Ryder Cup with his voice that it can be easy to overlook his contributions on the course.He was the catalyst for change when the Americans lost in Scotland two years ago. He was part of the Ryder Cup Task Force, and he remains on the committee. To listen to the players, Mickelson was the most motivational speaker in the team room.As for his play?Ive had a lot of fun this week, Mickelson said. More fun than you can ever imagine.Mickelson made 10 birdies in his halve with Sergio Garcia, giving him a 2-1-1 record, his third straight Ryder Cup with a winning record. Lefty already holds the Ryder Cup record by qualifying for 11 consecutive teams dating to 1995, and his longevity is moving him up the list of other records.He now has played 45 matches, trailing only Nick Faldo (46) for most ever in the Ryder Cup. His 18 victories trail only Arnold Palmer (22) and Billy Casper and Lanny Wadkins (each with 20). Wadkins was the U.S. captain when Mickelson made his debut at Oak Hill in 1995 and went 3-0.Mickelson also holds the record with eight victories in fourballs matches, eclipsing the seven won by Palmer and Wadkins.What next?Mickelson made his 11th straight team on the strength of his runner-up finish to Henrik Stenson at the British Open. Two years ago, he made the team in the final qualifying event with a runner-up finish at the PGA Championship.If he were to make the 2018 team for France, he surely would surpass Faldos record for most matches. He now has contributed 21+ points, which is two points behind Palmers U.S. record and 3+ points behind Faldos record of 25 points.Mickelson has never been a captains pick in the Ryder Cup. If he doesnt qualify for a 12th straight team, it will be interesting to see if he merits a pick. Mickelson was No. 30 in the Presidents Cup standings last year, the lowest position of any captains pick. The players wanted him, and Mickelson did his part in South Korea by going 3-0-1. That likely will be considered.The oldest Ryder Cup player was Raymond Floyd at age 51, a captains pick in 1993. Jay Haas was 50 when Hal Sutton picked him in 2004.---THE WINNING BALL: Davis Love finally has the golf ball that won the Ryder Cup.Only its not really his.Love was a Ryder Cup rookie in 1993 at the Belfry when he holed a 6-foot putt on the 18th hole that clinched victory for the Americans. He raised both arms in the air and the celebration was on. And the ball stayed in the cup.Now a captain, he stood to the side of the 18th green as Ryan Moore was on the verge of delivering the winning point. Three putts from 12 feet was all he needed, and when Moore rolled the birdie attempt a foot from the hole, Lee Westwood conceded.I lost my golf ball in `93 when I made a putt that ended the Ryder Cup. I left it in the hole, Love said. And I watched Ryan walk away from his on the 18th green and I went over and grabbed and took it back to him. He didnt want it, so he gave it back to me. So now I got one from the last hole.---BACK TO THE TOUR: The new PGA Tour season starts next week at the Safeway Open in Napa, California, and its the start of a new PGA Tour policy designed to get more players competing in different tournaments.Its known as the strength of field regulation.The policy requires players to add one tournament they have not played in the previous four seasons. Bubba Watson, for example, is adding the OHL Classic in Mexico at the end of the year. Players are exempt from the policy if they played 25 tournaments last season or plan to play that many this season.Tiger Woods during his healthy years typically played the same schedule every year. He was more inclined to add than to subtract. The policy, however, doesnt affect Woods. It exempts lifetime members on the PGA Tour (those who have won 20 or more times) or veteran members who will turn 45 or older during the season. Phil Mickelson also would be exempt under both exemptions.For those players with a limited schedule, they can choose just about anything. U.S. Open champion Dustin Johnson, for example, has 18 tournaments on his list that he can choose from this season. The other side is Lucas Glover, who has not been exempt for all the majors or World Golf Championships in the last few years, and who already has moved around his schedule. There were only three tournaments Glover has not played in the last four years.---MISSISSIPPI SUPPORT: William McGirt will be at the Sanderson Farms Championship with his golf clubs.He just wont be playing in the tournament.McGirt is a regular at the Mississippi event. But he won the Memorial this year and is No. 40 in the world, making him eligible for the World Golf Championship event in Shanghai. Even though McGirt doesnt want to play the HSBC Champions this year, the fact that he is eligible means he cannot play a PGA Tour event the same week.He still wanted to support the tournament, and the PGA Tour at least is letting him play in the pro-am.The tour has a policy where players who skip the pro-am are not eligible in the tournament. In this case, McGirt is not in the tournament and wants to play in the pro-am. Among recent examples of that happening are Greg Norman at the Valero Texas Open, Jack Nicklaus at the Memorial, Arnold Palmer at Bay Hill and even years ago with Roger Maltbie when the tour had the Michelob Championship at Kingsmill.---DIVOTS: The HSBC Champions will have all four major champions at Sheshan International in Shanghai for the first time since 2011. .... Just 10 days after the Ryder Cup, the PGA Tour starts a new season in the Safeway Open next week. It will be an even quicker turnaround for the Web.com Tour Finals players who earn their cards. The last event was pushed back a week so it would not conflict with the Ryder Cup. That means players who earn their cards on Sunday will be up on the big tour in four days. ... Ariya Jutanugarn finished sixth last week in the Reignwood LPGA Classic and moved ahead of Lydia Ko by four points for the LPGA player of the year award. Ko is the defending champion in Taiwan this week. Jutanugarn is taking the week off. ... Boo Weekley is playing this week in the Fiji International, which is sanctioned by the Asian Tour and European Tour this year.---STAT OF THE WEEK: Patrick Reed is 6-1-2 in his two Ryder Cups. He has yet to finish in the top 10 at a major championship.---FINAL WORD: Hes so positive, and he can really make you feel like if youre off that youre on. -- Jordan Spieth on Phil Mickelson.

LOUIS -- Lance Lynn was one of the more enthusiastic participants as the St. LOS ANGELES -- Yasmani Grandal couldnt hit during the offseason after left shoulder surgery. Spring training wasnt much better, ever mindful of others advice on overdoing it and stressing his joint.Grandal kept watching video of his swing, working with the hitting coaches to regain his lost touch.It paid off in spades when he homered three times, driving in six runs in the Los Angeles Dodgers 10-6 win over the San Diego Padres on Friday night that snapped a three-game skid.Today just seemed like it was my day, he said. Ive been hitting the ball, hard contact; its not showing numbers-wise. I kept doing what I was doing and tried to make adjustments here and there.Grandal became the third Dodgers catcher to hit three homers in a game, joining Mike Piazza (1996) and Roy Campanella (1950).This is something hell always remember, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said.The teams combined for 28 hits and seven homers, including two by San Diegos Melvin Upton Jr. Justin Turner and Howie Kendrick added solo shots for Los Angeles.Grandal had a bunt single against the shift in the eighth, giving him a career-high five hits against this former team. He took a foul ball off his mask in the sixth. Grandal had hit .182 with two homers in 18 previous games against the Padres, who traded him to the Dodgers for outfielder Matt Kemp, who went 0 for 5.Both starters struggled mightily before leaving early. San Diegos Andrew Cashner gave up a career-high eight runs, while Los Angeles Scott Kazmir labored through a 31-pitch, 27-minute first inning in a game that lasted 3 hours, 45 minutes.Pedro Baez (2-2) got the win, allowing one hit in 2 2/3 innings of relief.Kazmir allowed three runs and six hits in a season-low three innings, struck out five and walked three.The first inning for me it was tough to get any type of rhythm, he said. I felt I was throwing the ball well, I just wasnt getting any outs.Cashner (3-7) lasted just 2 2/3 innings, giving up eight hits, including four homers, while striking out two and walking three. The Dodgers feasted on Cashners fastball, teeing off on it for their first eight runs.I didnt really command much of anything, Cashner said. Fastball was out of the zone, not even close, and when I did throw it for a strike it was down the middle.Upton led off the fourth with his 16th homer of the season on the first pitch from Louis Coleman, leaving San Diego trailing 8-4. Upton has seven homers in his last 12 games. Coleman gave up three runs and four hits in one-plus innings.The Dodgers extended their lead to 7-3 in the third. Grandal hit a three-run homer and Kendrick followed with a solo shot, making it the second time this week and this season that the team had back-to-back homers.The Padres cut their deficit to 4-3 in the second on Uptons two-run homer.Los Angelles took a 4-1 lead in the first, scoring all its runs with two outs.dddddddddddd Turner got things going with his solo homer. Adrian Gonzalez singled and scored -- going wide to avoid the tag with his left hand on the plate -- on Yasiel Puigs double. Grandal followed with his first home run of the game, driving in Puig.San Diego catcher Derek Norris left the game in the fourth with a right quad contusion, the result of a first-inning collision with Chase Utley. Alexei Ramirez grounded into a bases-loaded fielders choice to Utley at second and Norris ran into him, causing them both to fall down. Norris was out on runners interference.Theres only one way in the world that run was not going to score, for him to create contact and get that call on interference, Padres manager Andy Green said of Utley. Its very frustrating to have one of your players get hurt from somebody else creating the collision and having your guy get called out at the same time.STARTING IN CENTER FIELDFrom Oklahoma City to starting in center field for the Dodgers was Andrew Toles. The 24-year-old outfielder had his contract purchased Friday and he made his major league debut after being out of baseball last year because of personal issues.He doubled in the second for his first big-league hit.Toles started for the Triple-A team Thursday night against Omaha and then caught an early flight to the West Coast. He began the season with Single-A Rancho Cucamonga and moved on to Double-A Tulsa before joining OKC.He was on the radar because he can really hit, Roberts said.Regular center fielder Joc Pederson is on the DL and the team has a short bench, leading to Toles promotion.TRAINERS ROOMPadres: RHP Tyson Ross (shoulder inflammation) reported discomfort in his twisted left ankle after playing catch from 120 feet at flat ground. There are no scheduled plans for him to throw off a mound. ... 2B Cory Spangenberg (pulled hamstring) was shut down midway through base-running drills during a rehab session and will be re-evaluated by team doctors.Dodgers: LHP Clayton Kershaw is due to come off the DL after the All-Star break, but he will need additional time. Roberts said Kershaws back is improving daily, but the team wont put a timetable on him. ... Pederson is in Arizona, hasnt swung a bat yet and the team isnt sure how soon hell return after the break.UP NEXTPadres: RHP Luis Perdomo (3-3, 7.93 ERA) tossed a career high-tying six innings in his previous start Monday at Arizona, giving up three runs (two earned) and nine hits. He struck out five and walked none.Dodgers: RHP Brandon McCarthy (1-0, 0.00) makes his second start of the season after coming off the DL last weekend.
