RIO DE JANEIRO -- Only one Russian will compete at the Olympic track and field meet.Darya Klishinas goal is to not put the weight of her whole country on her shoulders.The coach of the Russian long jumper, who trains and has been drug tested in Florida for the past 2 1/2 years, says part of the preparation involves shielding her from the real-world politics that surround Klishinas presence at the track in Rio de Janeiro next week.She certainly is aware of it, Loren Seagrave told The Associated Press in the lead-up to Klishinas competition, which starts next Tuesday. Shes real good at being Darya Klishina, and not taking on the entire world on her own.In June, tracks governing body, the IAAF, banned the Russian team from the Olympics after an investigation revealed a culture of widespread, state-sponsored doping within the program. It permitted exceptions for Russians who could show they had abided by stringent anti-doping rules -- namely, those who lived, trained and tested in another country.Klishina was the only athlete who met the standards. She started training with Seagrave in late 2013 and moved to Bradenton, Florida, in early 2014. The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, which handles drug testing of any athlete living in the United States, regardless of nationality, has tested Klishinas blood or urine 33 times since the end of 2013, Seagrave said.Klishinas entry into the Olympics brought its share of criticism from back home, from fans and athletes who suggested she is a traitor. There are 67 Russian track and field athletes who will not be allowed to compete, including two of the countrys best-known names -- world-record-holder pole vaulter Yelena Isinbayeva and 110-meter hurdles world champion Sergei Shubenkov.But Klishina will be there. The 25-year-old, whose best finish in a major competition was seventh at both the 2011 and 2013 world championships, is not doing interviews in advance of her competition. When she was cleared to compete, she told the Russian track teams website, I think it is wrong to criticize me and call me a Russian traitor.I would like to point out that I didnt start training in the USA with an American coach a month before this situation turned out the way it did, she said. I have been there for three years.Klishina has also received support from athletes, both from Russians whove been banned, and from athletes outside the country. The defending Olympic champion on the mens side, Britains Greg Rutherford, understands Klishinas awkward role in these games and says she certainly deserves to be here.You always like to believe the best in people and I just hope she has a fantastic games, Rutherford said. It is going to be a very interesting event having her there.Seagrave said he connected with Klishina after the long jumper reached out, upset that she was stagnating and needed to make some changes.When they first told me that Darya was going to come and train with us for a few months, I thought, `Oh my gosh, Im going to have to deal with a diva, Seagrave said of Klishina, who also dabbles in modeling. Its absolutely 100 percent the opposite way. Shes great to work with, really compassionate, supports her teammates. They support her.Klishina has the talent to be in the mix for a medal -- she won the world youth title in 2007 and had one of this seasons top jumps (6.84 meters) at Russias national championships. But it is not considered an official mark since the IAAF isnt recognizing marks from meets in Russia this year.Shes focused, Seagrave said. This is one of the things that has allowed her to prepare: We really havent talked about it much. We felt we needed to act as if everything was going to move forward, based on the decisions she made the last three years. Thats one of the things thats allowed her to stay focused and try to build a little bit of insulation between whats going on and her preparation.But there are some things Seagrave cant shield her from -- namely, dreams of a medal.I would think it would be a real source of pride and a rallying point for Russian people to realize that they have an athlete that has done everything according to the book and still come out on top, Seagrave said.J.

Moises Alou JerseyBALTIMORE -- If the New York Yankees are to continue their late-season push to snag a spot in the postseason, they need to stay healthy in September.Toward that end, the month has gotten off to a rocky start.Rookie right-hander Chad Green left Friday nights game with elbow pain, and the Yankees surrendered four home runs in an 8-0 loss to the Baltimore Orioles.Green was making his eighth start of the season, and New York can only hope it wasnt his last. The team should have a better idea of the severity of the injury on Saturday.Obviously he needs to have an MRI on his right elbow, manager Joe Girardi said.The MRI has become an unwanted necessity for the Yankees. Outfielder Aaron Hicks had an MRI on his right hamstring Thursday, and the results dictated that he will miss at least a week.Green was struggling during Baltimores six-run second inning when he suddenly found it difficult to extend his right arm. Minutes later, he walked off the mound with head athletic trainer Steve Donohue.It wasnt any particular pitch or anything. Just something I wasnt used to, Green said. Hopefully `s nothing too serious, but well see.Green (2-4) allowed four runs and five hits in 1 2/3 innings.Pedro Alvarez and Chris Davis hit two-run homers in the second inning before Mark Trumbo capped the uprising with his major league-leading 41st long ball. Manny Machado added a two-run shot in the fourth.We werent able to keep the ball in the ballpark, and its how this club is extremely dangerous, Girardi said.Baltimore leads the majors with 213 home runs, including 117 at home.When Alvarez went deep, the Orioles became the 19th team in big league history to have six players hit at least 20 in the same season. Alvarez joins Trumbo, Machado (33), Davis (33), Adam Jones (24) and Jonathan Schoop (21).Dylan Bundy (8-5) allowed two hits and four walks over 5 2/3 innings. In his previous start, the right-hander took the loss Saturday at Yankee Stadium after giving up five runs and seven hits in four innings.Bundy threw the ball well and we just got in a big hole from the get go and couldnt get out of it, saidd Brett Gardner, who had one of New Yorks two hits.ddddddddddddt was only the third win in eight games for the Orioles, who started the day tied with Detroit for the second AL wild-card slot.New York fell 3 1/2 games behind Baltimore. The Yankees came to town with a streak of four straight series wins.After leaving the bases loaded in the first inning, the Orioles batted around in the second. Jones singled in a run before Alvarez launched a drive that landed on Eutaw Street beyond the 25-foot scoreboard in right field. Green left after walking Machado, and Davis greeted Nick Goody with a home run.Trumbo followed by going deep on an 0-2 pitch, the 17th time this season the Orioles have hit back-to-back home runs.Two innings later, Machado connected off Kirby Yates for an 8-0 lead.WELCOME ABOARDYankees: New York recalled several players from its minor league system, including Goody and RHP Jonathan Holder, who threw a scoreless inning in his major league debut.Orioles: Obtained in separate transactions Wednesday, OFs Michael Bourn and Drew Stubbs made their debut with the Orioles as defensive replacements. ...
