SPARTA, Ky. -- Brad Keselowskis calm demeanor was never more evident than his cool response to a tense moment.He radioed crew chief Paul Wolfe that his No. 2 Ford was out of fuel but stayed focused, heeding instructions to milk whatever mileage he could.Keselowski ended up having enough to become the first three-time winner at Kentucky Speedway on Saturday night, overtaking Kevin Harvick on lap 201 and holding on for the Sprint Cup Series victory.We ran out with about two (laps) to go, he said. Somehow we limped it around and stay ahead of Carl (Edwards) and bring it home. This is something Im not going to forget.Its a pretty helpless feeling being out of gas with guys behind you. But theres nothing you can about it, and freaking out aint going to help anything.Matt Kenseth grabbed the lead with six laps remaining but soon pitted for fuel to hand the top spot back to Keselowski, who had just enough gas in reserve to edge Edwards by .175 seconds in the closest victory margin for the 400-mile race. Keselowskis tank eventually ran dry and he needed a tow truck to get to victory lane.Ryan Newman was third, followed by Kurt Busch and then Tony Stewart in fifth in his final Kentucky race. The three-time series champion is retiring after this season.Keselowski led three times for a total of 75 laps on his way to his second straight win and series-best fourth of the season that clinched a spot in the Chase for the championship.All of his Kentucky wins have come in even-numbered years -- the others came in 2012 and 2014 -- and his latest triumph on the 1.5 mile tri-oval might have been his most impressive in terms of strategy.The Penske Racing driver pitted just four times after starting second and made the most of his gas tank down to the last drop, withstanding one last charge from Edwards. Those final laps were still nerve-wracking for Wolfe, but hes been in this situation before with Keselowski and things have turned out well.I felt pretty good about it (fuel) until the 19 (Edwards) closed up on us, he said. He was able to go and I think he said, shut it off a little bit down the back and as he got into the corner it picked up. Once we were coming off (turn) 4, I saw he was still under power and I felt like we had it at that point.Said Edwards: I thought he was out of fuel, but he did a good job.Keselowski clearly got a lot from his tires and setup, both of which were important on the resurfaced and reconfigured track featuring higher banking in turns and 1 and 2. He lamented the smoothing of front-stretch bumps he said added character to Kentucky, but quickly adapted to the improvements and new NASCAR rules that reduced downforce and sideforce.Harvick, the pole-sitter, led for a race-high 128 laps and finished ninth.Keselowski guided his Ford past Harvicks Chevy on lap 201 after the race record-tying 11th caution. The race then stayed green to the end.Accidents were the story early on. Some notable names were collected, including Jimmie Johnson, Joey Logano and rookie Chase Elliott.Some other notes from the Kentucky race:HARD HIT: Loganos No. 22 Ford was knocked out after hitting the wall, an impact that left him 38th and red-faced. That was one of the hardest hits Ive had in a while, he said. Of his race, he added, it doesnt hurt. I think its just red.TIRES HOLD UP: Despite double-digit cautions that quickly made Goodyears tires an easy target, the package that differed from last months test held up well. Spokesman Mike Siberini said tires were cut by other factors, but there was no blistering like the type the company found after the June test here.PARTING GIFT: Stewart received a Kentucky basketball jersey from former Wildcats coach Joe B. Hall and ex-players Jack Goose Givens and Kyle Macy from the 1978 NCAA championship team. John Matuszak Jersey . Coach Tom Thibodeau says the former MVP will probably start travelling with the team in the next few weeks. Rose tore the meniscus in his right knee at Portland in November and was ruled out for the remainder of the season by the Bulls. Amari Cooper Jersey . 10 VCU 85-67 on Thursday night at the Puerto Rico Tip-Off. The Seminoles (4-0) have scored at least 80 points in each of their games. http://www.officialauthenticraidersstore.com/authentic-howie-long-jersey.html . Fellow centre Pavel Datsyuk remains out because of a concussion. Zetterberg has 11 goals and 19 assists for a team-high 30 points, and Datsyuk has a team-high 12 goals and 11 assists. Obi Melifonwu Jersey . Barcelonas entertaining victory ensured the defending Spanish champions retained their share of the league lead with Atletico Madrid two rounds ahead of their meeting in the capital. Real Madrid needed a late goal by substitute Jese Rodriguez to earn a 3-2 victory at Valencia to stay in third place and three points behind its title rivals. Marshall Newhouse Jersey . Jordan Lynch, the all-purpose Heisman Trophy finalist from Northern Illinois, failed to make it into that exclusive club. Badree makes it two in two Samuel Badrees modus operandi takes the surface out of the equation most times. He relies more on drift than turn, but what makes him a threat is the quick-arm action that helps him get the ball to skid through quickly. Sharjeel Khans modus operandi revolves around camping back and playing the pull, which he does so effectively most times. In the first T20I, he tried to pull Badree, only to see the ball skid on faster and beat his swing to hit leg stump. On Saturday, Badree, bowling with a relatively dry ball, kept it fuller to force Sharjeel to play off the front foot, and a string of dots in the first two overs forced him to attempt a jabbing drive which he chopped on. Badrees smile at having Sharjeels number for the second time in as many matches was as telling as any send-off.The misjudgement Nicholas Pooran may have fond memories of playing in Dubai. It was here that he made a sparkling 143 against Australia at the Under-19 World Cup in 2014. For a brief while on Saturday, though, he could have been excused for wanting to run out of the venue as fast as possible. Fielding at long leg, he was guilty of charging in a little too much to completely misjudge a whip from Khalid Latif. While it isnt clear if Dubais ring of fire floodlights may have affected his sight, the manner in which Pooran scampered back in an atteempt to recover suggested he was just caught completely off guard.dddddddddddd He eventually leapt high to take it, but only landed on his behind as the ball plonked a few inches behind him.The celebration West Indies captain Carlos Brathwaite struck off the next ball following Poorans dropped chance. He got the in-form Babar Azam, and the relief was palpable. Even as Azam was making the walk back, Brathwaite invited attention with a unique mid-pitch jig that, at first, seemed like an angry gesture. Then he laughed and repeated the jig: both feet off the ground and his left forearm covering his eyes as he hopped repeatedly. His team-mates soon joined in to complete what was later termed the dab.Malik gives up, Taylor misses Shoaib Malik was sent a yorker when he stepped out to Jerome Taylor, but he managed to squeeze it out. The ball squirted towards the bowler, with Malik still nearly halfway down the pitch. The batsmen thought it would be futile to attempt to dash back to safety. Taylor had all the time in the world to run up to the stumps and knock the bails off, but decided to throw at the wicket. As it turned out, he could not hit any of the three stumps from less than 10 yards away. He could not even get close.
