AKRON, Ohio -- Dustin Johnsons best save of the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational came about 20 minutes after hed finished his final round.Already the clubhouse leader following a 4-under 66 on Sunday, the recently crowned U.S. Open champion was casually hanging out in the scoring area with his 18-month-old son, Tatum, while the final pairing was fruitlessly finishing up on the course.The flaxen-haired little boy climbed on a nearby golf cart. He giggled while throwing a golf ball. He ran -- and ran and ran and ran, as little boys do.At one point, Tatum ran straight through the grassy area, toward a road that separates it from spectators. Still a bit wobbly kneed, the boy reached the curb and appeared headed for imminent wipeout when his dad nonchalantly lunged from some 10 feet away and with a swooping paw lifted him into the air without breaking stride and without ever looking the least bit worried.Consider the scenario perfectly emblematic of Johnsons personality, one that doesnt betray him inside the ropes. Whether collapsing under the spotlight of major championship Sunday afternoons in the past or coolly clinching his first major at Oakmont Country Club two weeks ago, Johnson always appears to be playing an informal match against friends rather than a grueling top-level competition.That was the case on this occasion, too.Johnson entered the day 3 strokes off Jason Day and Scott Piercys 54-hole lead, which seems to be his preferred method of attack. For the round, Johnson posted a half-dozen birdies, with a messy bogey on the final hole just a mere formality on his way to the victory circle.Although he might have looked as relaxed as ever, Johnson admitted afterward that his recent major breakthrough allowed him to play even more carefree than hed done in similar situations before.Im definitely a little more relaxed out there on the golf course, especially coming down the stretch, he said. Today I felt I was in a really good place -- really calm, collected, just focusing on what I was doing. Just playing golf.For as proficient as Johnson is at the game, hes even better at making it look easy -- and sound easy.It wasnt that long ago when he made some fairly major swing changes. For other players, these alterations might take months, even a year, while being closely monitored by instructors offering seemingly critical feedback.For Johnson, it was as simple as just flipping a switch.As he explained in his best DJ-ese: I was just struggling with the draw to get it in the fairway, so I said, Im going to hit a fade, and I started hitting a fade.Easy game, huh?Hitting a fade wasnt the only thing he made look easy this week.Johnsons fiancée, the camera-friendly Paulina Gretzky, had to head home Friday morning, so he was doing the solo-dad thing with Tatum all weekend while sandwiching in a pair of 66s on the course.Yeah, just me and him hanging out this weekend, he said. Its perfect.After making it all sound easy, he sheepishly smiled and allowed, Well, Ive got a nanny, so that helps.The impact that fatherhood has made on Johnson shouldnt be understated. Its noteworthy that Johnsons first major championship triumph, this follow-up victory and his imminent rise to a career-best No. 2 in the Official World Golf Ranking have all come with a greater maturity level.He turned 32 years old last week, and like so many other elite players before him, Johnson is peaking while his priorities are taking a different shape.Golf isnt the most important thing anymore, he acknowledged. I dont know if that helps or hurts or what. But [Tatum] is most important, and whether I shoot a good score or a bad score, when I see him, it doesnt matter.Just as he did on the final green two weeks ago, that little boy again greeted his dad when he won on this Sunday. Johnson hugged him and played with him and laughed with him and, yes, maybe even saved him as they waited for the victory to become official. When it finally did, Tatums dad hugged him once more, then strode away to accept his trophy, making it all look so easy again. Red Wings Jerseys 2021 .

Wilsons recent stretch of success. The Los Angeles Angels left-hander retired 18 consecutive batters at one point during his duel with Oaklands Dan Straily, and Alberto Callaspo homered in a 2-0 victory over the Athletics 2-0 Saturday night. But at no point in the game did Wilson feel comfortable. "Comfort is like a four-letter word in baseball. I mean, you get too comfortable and guys start whacking you all over the place. So you have to stay adamant and stay vigilant," the two-time All-Star said. "Its like workplace safety -- if there hasnt been an accident in 99 days, youre looking to extend that streak. I was upset that I walked a couple of guys tonight, because the last game I didnt have any walks." Wilson (10-6) gave up three hits in 8 1-3 innings, struck out eight and walked two. Jed Lowries two-out double in the first and Nate Freimans leadoff single in the second were the only hits off him until Lowries one-out single in the ninth on Wilsons 119th and final pitch. "My first-pitch strike percentage has been up significantly over the last couple of years, and its something Ive been getting better at as my mechanics get more refined," Wilson said. "This whole year, its been more of a theme." Wilson began his string of consecutive outs with three straight strikeouts on 10 pitches and didnt allow another baserunner until he walked Derek Norris on a full count leading off the eighth. He was much more pitch-efficient than teammate Jered Weaver was in his 4-1 victory Friday night. "They ran Jereds pitch count up last night -- he had like 90 pitches after four or five innings -- so my game plan was to try to get ahead of them," Wilson said. "In the past, Ive had a tough time doing that against them because I was too deep into counts, so I tried to turn the tables on them. Im not one of those guys whos going to strike out everybody, so I have to use the defence as much as possible." Ernesto Frieri got the final two outs for his 24th save in 26 chances, striking out pinch-hitter John Jaso with runners at first and second to end it. Wilson joined Ryan Dempster and Derek Lowe as the only pitchers in major league history to post 10 or more wins as a starter in four consecutive seasons after three straight seasons with 10 or more saves. The two-time All-Star is 6-1 with a 1.70 ERA over his last seven starts. The AL West-leading As lost their second in a row coming out of the All-Star break. Home Run Derby chhampion Yoenis Cespedes sat out his second straight game because of a sore left wrist that he injured during batting practice on Friday.dddddddddddd "He feels better today, but until our training staff feels like hes 100 per cent and not putting himself in a position where he could further injure it, itll be day to day," manager Bob Melvin said. Straily (6-3) allowed two runs and eight hits over seven innings, struck out four and walked none. The right-hander was 5-0 with a 2.83 ERA in his previous nine starts. This is Strailys fifth stint with the As this season alone. He was optioned to Triple-A the day after four of his starts -- once because Bartolo Colon was reinstated from the suspended list, once because Brett Anderson went on the disabled list, another time because the team had three days off during an eight-game stretch, and again because the All-Star break was coming up. "Theyre very good about letting me know whats going on. Its beneficial to me," Straily said. "I understand my job and I understand what the final goal is. I dont take it personally. I go down there and do my work. Hopefully Im the one they call back up." The Angels, who have won 13 straight games in which Josh Hamilton has driven in a run, opened the scoring in the first with his sacrifice fly after Mike Trout was hit by a pitch and took third on Albert Pujols opposite-field single. Trout extended his hitting streak to 12 games with a third-inning single, matching his longest in the majors. Callaspo drove Strailys first pitch of the seventh inning into the first row of seats above the 18-foot wall in right field for his fifth homer. "I just needed to throw up two more zeros than I did," Straily said. "My job is to go out there and just make pitches and keep us in the ball game as long as possible. I gave them a run in the first inning by hitting Trout. Pujols hit a good pitch and Hamilton hit the sacrifice fly. Thats all they needed tonight." NOTES: Batting practice was cancelled for both teams because of a steady rain that required the rarely used tarpaulin to be put on the field. The Angels have not had a home game rained out since June 16, 1995, when the Chicago White Sox were in town. "I didnt even know there was a tarp here. Apparently, there is," As manager Bob Melvin said. ... Straily retired Mark Trumbo on an inning-ending double-play grounder in the sixth. The Angels have grounded into an AL-worst 98 double plays, while the Athletics defence has executed a major league-low 69 DPs. ' ' '
