said Molina.Every fight youve got to break down what your best chance

HOUSTON -- R.A. Dickeys knuckleball was working Tuesday night, and the Blue Jays got just enough offense to pull out a win.Dickey threw seven solid innings, Jose Bautista and Edwin Encarnacion homered and Toronto beat the Houston Astros 2-1.Dickey (8-12) allowed a run and six hits with five strikeouts.A lot of swing and miss, Toronto manager John Gibbons said. He had good life on his knuckleball. Its one of those things that it comes and goes with him. He was aggressive with it and he threw a ton of strikes. Thats the key.He had allowed 18 runs -17 earned -- over his last three starts, all losses.Dickey said he was on top of a lot of knuckleballs Tuesday night, with different movement and different speeds.Ive been feeling great, Dickey said. Ive been feeling strong. My knuckleball velocities have been great, and I have been able to change speeds a lot. I think one of the differences tonight was fairly dramatic for me was just my command with it.Bautista hit his 300th career homer in the third to put Toronto up 1-0.Its always a friendly reminder that youve been doing this a long time and enjoyed some success, Bautista said about the milestone. You get happy about that. No doubt, but right now I think we have more important things to worry about. Ill get to enjoy that in the offseason.Encarnacion launched his 29th home run to lead off the fourth -- a monstrous shot that bounced off the railroad tracks at Minute Maid Park before landing in left field.Danny Barnes pitched the eighth before Jason Grilli pitched the ninth for his second save with Toronto and his fourth overall. The win snapped Torontos eight-game losing streak at Houston.Evan Gattis cut the lead to 2-1 with an RBI single in the seventh. Jose Altuve had three hits for Houston, which lost for the fourth time in five games.We have been in an offensive lull for a few games now, Houston manager A.J. Hinch said. Obviously, Dickey had his good knuckleball going tonight, and his ball was moving all over the place. The hitters were coming back and remarking on how much action he had on his pitches.Lance McCullers (6-5) allowed two runs on seven hits with six strikeouts in 4 2/3 innings before leaving with discomfort in his right elbow. He will be evaluated Wednesday.We dont really know, McCullers said about the injury. Were just going to follow protocol and take it step by step and see where we are tomorrow. I felt a little discomfort, and out of precaution, I just had to get out of there.McCullers was replaced by Joe Musgrove, who struck out eight in 4 1/3 shutout innings. The eight strikeouts tied a major league record for strikeouts by a reliever making his big league debut set by Barry Jones for the Pirates on April 20, 1986.TRAINERS ROOMBlue Jays: SS Troy Tulowitzki (thumb) swung off a tee Tuesday and was feeling better, Gibbons said.Astros: RHP Luke Gregerson was placed on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to July 28 with a left oblique strain.

Eric Molina is aiming to pull off a shock against Anthony Joshua as seismic as when his mentor Oliver McCall upset Lennox Lewis in 1994.American McCall ended British-born Lewis first reign as world heavyweight champion when he won the WBC title via an unexpected second round stoppage in London.Molina (25-3, 19 KOs) wants history to repeat when he challenges Joshua for his IBF world heavyweight title at the Manchester Arena on Saturday.Like McCall, Molina is an underdog. Like Lewis, Joshua is the home hero and title-holder. Mexican-American Molina, 34, has also worked with McCall, who has been troubled by drug abuse.Oliver McCall came across to me six years ago. I worked and trained with him, hes a good mentor of mine, he guided through some of his mind-frame of his first fight against Lewis, and some of the advice that he got, said Molina.Hes a great guy, hes helped me a lot and what a great moment for heavyweight boxing -- history has a moment to repeat itself.Weve talked a bit about mental and physical preparation. I always envision myself having that moment that he had here in England. He had that big win and it just shows the world that in this heavyweight division anything is possible.But the odds are heavily stacked against Texan Molina.Joshua, 27, has knocked out all 17 professional opponents since winning an Olympic gold in 2012 as an amateur. In his two world title fights, Joshua has dispatched Charles Martin in two rounds and Dominic Breazeale in seven.Despite the champions impressive record, Molina says the unbeaten star of British boxing is untested as he plots a shock.I thinnk hes yet to be seen in a lot of situations, said Molina.ddddddddddddWere coming in to try and put him in some spots and surprise him. He thinks its going to be an easy night, the whole world thinks its going to be an easy night, so my most powerful element is the element of surprise.And Molina, who was knocked out by WBC champion Deontay Wilder last year, feels he can only end Joshuas reign by KO.I might knock him down a round or two and I might still not win the round, said Molina.Every fight youve got to break down what your best chance to win is, am I going to outbox him for 12 rounds? No. Whats my only chance to win? To knock him out.Molina has three defeats on his record, the first coming on his professional debut in 2007, but he revived his career with a stoppage win over two-weight world champion Tomasz Adamek in his last fight in April, away from home in Poland.Molina has taken a break from his job of teaching disabled children, after attaining a masters degree in special education four years ago, and win or lose against Joshua he plans on returning to the day job.Im a school teacher and if I win or lose this fight one day I will be back in the classroom, said Molina.I feel like thats what Im destined to do. I know that whatever happens December 10 Ill be back there, its just a matter of when.But Im here living my dream to become world heavyweight champion coming from 0 and 1 and a small town that I came from and Im willing to give everything I got.
