Wanted. JK Scott Jersey . CFL coaches. Several openings available. Send your resume to Scott Milanovich c/o Toronto Argonauts. Experience preferred. That may sound a bit extreme, but the Toronto Argonauts coaching staff has been decimated in the off-season. Former defensive coordinator Chris Jones is the new head coach in Edmonton, while former special teams coordinator Mike OShea was named as the Blue Bombers head coach in early December. The main difference between the two? Jones didnt leave on his own. On Tuesday, it was announced that Jones was bringing four members of last years Argo staff with him to Edmonton. Steve McAdoo was Torontos o-line coach for the past four seasons and becomes Edmontons new offensive coordinator. Ed Philions first year coaching in the CFL was last year with the Argos defensive line, the same group hell coach with the Eskies. Two young assistant coaches, Jason Shivers and Craig Davoren leave Ontario to become defensive backs coach and offensive assistant coach respectively. Scott Milanovich replaced Jones with former Winnipeg head coach Tim Burke, but now has a lot of vacancies on the staff. Was he surprised at all with the number of defections? "Not at all," Milanovich told TSN.ca. "I knew a week after the season who was going." The coach says that at some point after the season Eskies GM Ed Hervey called Jim Barker, his Toronto counterpart, and asked for permission. Its an expected part of life on the coaching carousel. "All of the contracts would have been up at the end of the month. I spoke with Chris (Jones) about it. I told him who was and wasnt available. There were no surprises." Perhaps the least shocking move is that McAdoo is heading west. He and Jones coached for three seasons together at Tennessee Tech, four years together with the Montreal Alouettes and the last two campaigns together in Toronto. When Jones left, Burke was hired almost immediately to replace him. It was an easy fit. They had coached together in Montreal, Burke had a ton of experience and had great success as a DC in the league. The OShea replacement hasnt been as easy. "I think (special teams coordinator) is a very difficult position to fill in the CFL" Milanovich explained to TSN.ca "It doesnt get the respect it deserves. I dont think you can go and get an NCAA D-1 or NFL coach and get a successful transition in one year. The return game, the halo, the number of snaps you take on special teams makes it more of a position that needs CFL or CIS experience." The search continues and Milanovich says the club has focsed on several candidates. "I have spoken to maybe four or five" continued the coach. "Ive dug around and asked about six or seven others and have asked other guys for their opinions." Historically the CIS has been snubbed as a breeding ground for CFL coaches, though Mike OShea named long-time Queens DC Pat Tracey as the Bombers special teams coach. Would Milanovich have a problem going that route? "Not for the right guy." Milanovich hopes to have that guy, and the rest of his new staff assembled in the next two to three weeks. He hopes to announce the entire staff at the same time. JMon Moore Packers Jersey . This is the final meeting of the season between these teams.? The Capitals were 5-4 winners in a shootout Oct. Jaire Alexander Jersey . Mission accomplished. Now the Royals will take the field on Saturday with a World Series lead for the first time in team history when they play Game 4 of the Fall Classic against the Giants at AT&T Park. KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Jacoby Ellsbury beat the Kansas City Royals with his bat and glove. Ellsbury matched a career high with four hits and drove in a pair of runs to lead the Boston Red Sox to a 5-3 win over the Kansas City Royals on Saturday night. Ellsbury had RBI-doubles in the fourth and sixth innings and also stole his major league-leading 42nd base. It was his 10th career four-hit game and second this season. "Im seeing the ball and driving it, putting some good swings on the ball," Ellsbury said. "I feel like Ive been swinging the bat well and all you can do is get hard contact. "Fortunately tonight they fell in. Ive always been a big believer that its just a matter of time. Ive put a lot of work into it, into hitting and making good contact." The Red Sox lead the American League with 71 victories, while the Royals lost for just the third time in 18 games. "It was definitely a nice win for us," Ellsbury said. "Tonight, all three games really, its been a dogfight. Theyre playing well and were playing well. Well come out and try to split the series tomorrow." Ellsbury also ran down Miguel Tejadas sharp liner to end the first with the bases loaded and Jarrod Dysons sinking line drive in the eighth with a runner on second. "Theres a lot of ground to cover," Ellsbury said. "If you hit the ball in the air here you have a chance to track it down." Ellsbury saved runs and drove in runs. "On both sides of the ball excellent, great defensive play in the outfield this whole series," Royals manager Ned Yost said. "Hes just a tough, tough out." The Red Sox scored four runs in the fourth. Will Middlebrooks, who was just recalled from Triple-A Pawtucket, fueled the rally with a two-run single. Stephen Drew drove in a run with a double, extending his hitting streak to a season-best 11 games. The Royals answered with a three-run fifth. Eric Hosmer and Billy Butler drilled back-to-back RBI doubles and Miguel Tejada hit a two-out single. Tejada, 39, who has started 22 games at second base, left with tightness in his right calf while diving for Carps single in the seventh and was replaced by Elliot Johnson. "Were evaluating it now," Yost said. DeShone Kizer Packers Jersey. Red Sox starter Felix Doubront failed to get an out in the fifth, facing four batters before being replaced by Brandon Workman. Doubront gave up three runs on six hits and four walks. Royals right-hander Jeremy Guthrie (12-8), who had won his previous four starts, threw a season-high 123 pitches in seven innings, allowing five runs on 10 hits and a walk. Ellsbury has a career .435 average against Guthrie. "With his speed and his ability to put wood on the ball, hes a tough hitter," Guthrie said. "Hes always been very tough for me and I didnt execute very well." Ellsbury drove in Middlebrooks with a sixth-inning double for the final run off Guthrie. "He squared up some balls tonight and gave me a chance to get around the bases," Middlebrooks said. Workman (3-1) picked up his second victory of the week with 1 1-3 scoreless innings. Koji Uehara pitched a flawless ninth to collect his 12th save in 15 chances. Billy Butler had three hits, including two doubles, for the Royals, who loaded the bases in the first but came away empty. "We had chances early," Butler said. "We had Doubronts pitch count up, but we couldnt get anything out of it early. We just couldnt quite crack him." NOTES: Both clubs made four roster moves before the game. The Red Sox recalled Middlebrooks, who was hitting .269 with 10 home runs for Pawtucket, and activated LHP Franklin Morales from the disabled list. They placed IF Brandon Snyder, sore right elbow, on the 15-day DL and optioned RHP Pedro Beato to Pawtucket. ... The Royals placed OF Lorenzo Cain on the disabled list with a pulled left oblique. They recalled LHPs Will Smith and Donnie Joseph from Triple-A Omaha and designated for assignment LHP Francisley Bueno, who picked up the victory Friday with 2 1-3 scoreless innings against the Red Sox. ... Royals RHP Wade Davis, who has been on the family emergency leave after the death of his step-brother, will be activated Sunday and will start Monday against Miami. ... The Royals are optimistic C Salvador Perez, who is on the concussion list, would get the clearance to be activated Sunday.
