Even first-time Olympian Max Esposito thinks the parallels between his modern pentathlon performance and his sisters efforts are freaky.The 19-year-old finished seventh in Rio - the same mark his Rio gold medal-winning sibling claimed in London.Esposito also went into the final round with a 45-second handicap, the same mark Chloe Esposito stormed home from to win gold on Friday night.And Chloe struggled with her fencing in 2012, just as Max did, ultimately leaving him just six seconds from claiming a bronze medal on Saturday.My fencing is always up and down, up and down like a rollercoaster, Esposito said after the race.Australians will be hoping the next parallel is Esposito winning gold in Tokyo 2020.He finished 29th in the fencing but placed in the top four in every other event.Esposito swam the fourth-fastest 200 metres, and scored the maximum possible points in the equestrian section, to sit 17th overall.Esposito was on the verge of fourth overall at one point in the combined running and shooting event, but a mixed final shooting performance cut valuable seconds from his chase.I was really happy with my running, the shooting I thought I could have done better, but I think a little bit of the crowd and people (distracted me), he said.Esposito said finishing seventh against athletes he watched as a 15-year-old in London was unbelievable.In my head I said `I want to get top 10 but I didnt tell anyone because I didnt want to jinx myself, he said.The Espositos are trained by their father Daniel - himself a former Olympian - and are known for their commitment.Weve got a reputation from all the pentathletes that we are psycho trainers, he said.Well, today coming here and showing that we can get a good result by Chloe getting gold and me getting seventh, shows hard training pays off.Russias Alexander Lesun won gold despite finishing 20th or worse in all the events bar the fencing, which he won.The Ukraines Pavlo Tymoshchenko won silver and Mexicos Ismael Hernandez Uscanga won bronze, just six seconds ahead of Esposito.So will Australians see Esposito in Tokyo?One hundred per cent. I cant wait, Esposito said. Adidas Superstar Suede Solid Grijs/Wit/Metalen Goud . -- Gus Malzahn finally had his day in Fayetteville. Adidas Superstar Suede Roze/Wit .

PHILADELPHIA -- Vince Velasquez hopes a round of golf will solve what ails him right now.The Phillies right-hander continued his struggles Sunday in a 9-0 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals.Velasquez (8-6) surrendered five runs on seven hits in five innings. The 24-year-old is 0-4 with a 6.23 ERA in his last seven starts.He wasnt locating his secondary pitches, Philadelphia manager Pete Mackanin said. Hes got to keep working on it.Velasquez, who had 16 strikeouts in a game earlier this season, isnt sure how to turn things around.Im trying to figure it out, Velasquez said. I cant give a solid answer because I dont know what it is.His solution?Im going to play a round of golf and take my mind off baseball, he said. I think a round of golf is going to solve it.The Cardinals teed off on Phillies pitching, with Jedd Gyorko, Stephen Piscotty, Brandon Moss and Jeremy Hazelbaker hitting home runs.Its not the only way we can score runs but its our main way, Moss said. Weve got a lot of guys in the lineup that can do a lot of damage. Its nice to have guys in the lineup who can change a game like that.The Cardinals had hit multiple home runs in nine straight games, tying a major league record, before failing to connect twice Saturday night in a 4-2 loss. Manager Mike Matheny was happy to see the bats get hot again.We needed that to continue to watch these guys stay in a good rhythm, he said.Jhonny Peralta added three hits as the Cardinals finished a 6-3 road trip. They remained 1 1/2 games ahead of Miami for the final wild-card spot in the National League.The Cardinals got six extra-base hits to set a club record of 14 straight games with at least three extra-base hits.Mike Leake (9-9) gave up seven hits and struck out eight. PPhiladelphia had homered in 14 straight games before getting blanked by Leake and two relievers.ddddddddddddMoss hit his 23rd homer and Leake added a two-run single later in the fourth for a 4-0 lead.I didnt have electric stuff early and next thing you know everything goes south when you dont have your secondary pitches, Velasquez said. Im not figuring it out and havent found that turning point yet.Mackanin believes the young pitcher will find whatever is missing.Hes going to be real good at one point, he said. He has to be more efficient with his pitches and get his pitch count down.Piscotty connected in the fifth, the eighth home run Velasquez has allowed in three games.In the eighth, Gyorko hit his 20th homer and Hazelbaker had a pinch-hit drive.We got hit pretty bad, Mackanin said.FOULS HIT FANSA day after a young girl was taken to the hospital when she was struck by a foul ball behind the Cardinals dugout, a young woman was hit in the face by Leakes foul in the sixth. She held an ice pack as she was helped to the concourse from her seat about 10 rows behind the dugout.Phillies shortstop Freddy Galvis, who hit the foul that injured the fan Saturday night, said before the game that the team should extend the netting from behind home plate all the way to left field.The fans give you the money, so you should protect them, right? Galvis said. Were worried about speeding up the game. Why dont you put up a net and protect all the fans?UP NEXTThe Phillies start a five-game road trip on Tuesday night at the White Sox.
