EUGENE, Ore. -- Stanford quarterback Keller Chryst finally found a groove for his third start.The junior quarterback, who took over for Ryan Burns at the end of last month, threw for 258 yards and three touchdowns in Stanfords 52-27 victory over Oregon on Saturday.You saw Keller just finally get comfortable, Stanford coach David Shaw said. He got comfortable, the ball was coming out of his hands on time, and he hit some big-time throws.Stanford (7-3, 5-3 Pac-12) is 3-0 now with Chryst at quarterback. His breakout -- along with Christian McCaffreys big day -- provided some offensive equilibrium for the Cardinal, Shaw said. McCaffrey ran for 135 yards and three touchdowns.We talked at length about balancing out the offense. The first two weeks with Keller as the starter we knew he was trying to get comfortable so we wanted to really dedicate ourselves to running the football, Shaw said. This game we wanted to be more balanced.The loss means that Oregon (3-7, 1-6) will finish with a losing record for the first time since 2004. It also effectively knocked the Ducks out of contention for a bowl game with two games left.We just got outplayed, offensive lineman Cameron Hunt said.The game did not carry the implications that many thought it might have at the start of the season. Neither team was ranked for the first time since the 2008 meeting.Either Stanford or Oregon had won every Pac-12 championship since the league expanded and a title game was established in 2011. This season, Washington and Washington State are undefeated in conference play at sit atop the leagues North division.McCaffrey ran for a 61-yard touchdown to put Stanford up early. After Oregon lost the ball on a fumble, McCaffrey scored again on a 5-yard TD run. Last seasons Heisman runner-up needed just 20 yards rushing going into the game to reach the 1,000-yard mark for the second straight season.I was patient, patient and then when I saw the hole, there was a lot of green grass ahead of me, McCaffrey said about his long opening touchdown run.McCaffrey, who also scored on a 14-yard run in the first half, had struggled this season and sat out of the game against Notre Dame because of an injury. But he looked to regain his form last weekend with 199 yards rushing in a 26-15 victory over Oregon State.McCaffrey also caught five passes for 52 yards against Oregon.Oregon freshman quarterback Justin Herbert, who started his fifth game after taking over for graduate transfer Dakota Prukop, threw for 272 yards and two touchdowns. But he also threw two interceptions.Royce Freeman ran for 111 yards and a touchdown for Oregon. The Ducks main problems were on defense, allowing Stanford 540 yards of total offense. It was the first time this season the Cardinal had 250 or more yards both via pass and on the ground this season.Kani Benoits 7-yard touchdown run for Oregon in the final quarter made it 52-20 and allowed the Ducks to preserve their streak of games with 20 or more points to 40, the longest active streak in the nation.Asked what he would like to see from his players in the final two games, Oregon coach Mark Helfrich said: Find out who rises up. Find out what were made of. Obviously, you play to win every single game, every single rep, whatever you are doing, if you are a competitor.THE TAKEAWAYStanford: The Cardinal averaged just 20 points a game this season before Saturdays win. ... Linebacker Joey Alfieri, an Oregon native, intercepted a first-half Herbert pass to Tony Brooks-James, for his first career interception.Oregon: Oregon fell behind 21-0 in the first half for the third time in the last five games. ... The Ducks have lost seven of their last eight games. ... I apologize to them for how we finished out the home slate, Helfrich said in a message to fans following the game.INJURIES: The Ducks were again without receiver Dwayne Stanford, who has missed five games. CSNNW.com reported before the game that Stanford was out for the rest of the season. ... Senior safety Reggie Daniels was listed on the depth chart but also in street clothes. ... Following the game Helfrich said that running back Taj Griffin was out for the season because of a non-contact injury he sustained in practice this week. ... Senior receiver Pharaoh Brown left the game with what appeared to be a hamstring injury.On Stanfords side, wide receiver Francis Owuso and safety Zach Hoffpauir did not play because of injuries. ... Defensive end Solomon Thomas appeared to injure his ankle in the first half. Shaw said afterward he was cleared to go back in the game but didnt because of the score.QUOTABLE: Hes the tone setter. Hes the guy that we have that the other teams dont have. And if we give him an opportunity to make plays, he never disappoints, Shaw said of McCaffrey.UP NEXTStanford: The Cardinal visit California for the Big Game before finishing the season at home against Rice.Oregon: The Ducks visit Utah next Saturday before finishing up with rival Oregon State to the north in Corvallis.

Akiem Hicks Jersey . -- The goal posts lying flat on the field, Arizonas fans lingered on the field, congregating around the locker room entrance nearly 30 minutes after rushing out of the stands. SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- New York Mets general manager Sandy Alderson described team officials as extremely disappointed and shocked by last weeks arrest of closer Jeurys Familia on a domestic-violence charge.Alderson added that while he preferred not to dwell on the on-field ramifications at this point, setup man Addison Reed likely would serve as the closer if Familia were required to serve an MLB-imposed suspension.Familia was arrested by Fort Lee, New Jersey, police last Monday after allegedly causing a scratch to the chest and a bruise to the right cheek of an unnamed person, whose name was redacted from the official complaint. The complaint further stated that officer Tony Pickens found probable cause to believe that domestic violence had occurred. Familia was charged with simple assault.Obviously we were extremely disappointed and frankly shocked at the allegations, Alderson said Monday, shortly after arriving at the GM meetings that kick off the hot-stove season. Of course, he hasnt had a hearing yet. So the facts are to be determined. Its not just an unfortunate situation, but a sad one for him and his family.Now, secondarily, well have to think about what impact it will have. I dont think its fully sunk in yet as to whats the impact -- simply because its not clear what exactly happened and how that will impact his availability. Not that we havent thought about it, but its not the thing that was top of mind when we heard about it. We still dont know a lot about what transpired.Alderson said the Mets do not have any information beyond the official police report. While Familia has communicated with the organization, he has not directly spoken with Alderson, according to the GM.We dont have a handle on it, Alderson said.With right-hander Fernando Salas and left-hander Jerry Blevins now free agents, Alderson noted the Mets were in the market for relieef help even before Familias arrest.dddddddddddd After being acquired from the Angels on Aug. 31, Salas served in a seventh-inning role, leading into Reed. Blevins served as the primary lefty specialist.Alderson said the potential loss of Familias services for a portion of the 2017 season does not materially change the Mets pursuit of late-inning relief help. Nor does it increase the likelihood of acquiring high-end arms.It would have been a lower-tier player, Alderson said. Would it be something higher than that at this point? Probably not. Alderson added that Robert Gsellman and Seth Lugos emergences as dependable rookies in 2016 provide a safety net for the bullpen, especially if Matt Harvey, Jacob deGrom, Noah Syndergaard, Steven Matz and Zack Wheeler are all healthy and the rotation is full -- admittedly a big if.I think we were inclined to look at some additional late-inning help before this incident occurred, Alderson said. The last two years weve gone out and got somebody in late August and its been helpful [Reed in 2015 from the Diamondbacks, Salas in 2016]. Youd like to be able to do that early on. The difficulty with going out and finding someone, unless theyre absolute blue chip, is youre not always sure year to year how theyre going to perform. So its in some ways a little easier to predict that when youre picking them up in late July or late August. You have a little bit of a track record. Even if that track record isnt uniformly positive, theres some trend lines and things you can look at.But, yes, we intended to look at our bullpen even before this incident. I might add, this is where a Gsellman or a Lugo might prove to be very valuable to us going into next season even if theyre not in the starting rotation.
