(SportsNetwork. Maury Wills Jersey .com) - The start of a six-game homestand went as expected for the Golden State Warriors and now theyll turn their attention to the Philadelphia 76ers Tuesday at Oracle Arena. The Warriors ended a two-game slide with Saturdays 110-97 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves and were led by Stephen Currys 25 points. Klay Thompson scored 21 points and the quartet of David Lee, Andre Iguodala, Harrison Barnes and Marreese Speights scored 10 points. Golden State shot 46.6 percent, scored 36 points on 25 Minnesota turnovers and posted a 30-19 scoring advantage in the third quarter. Lot of good stuff offensively. But I told our guys, if we want to win in May and June, we have to play every possession. You cant just completely lose focus, Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. Kerrs squad has won nine in a row at home and is 11-1 at Oracle Arena. The only loss at home occurred on Nov. 11 versus San Antonio. Golden State is 8-0 against Eastern Conference foes and won 10 in a row as the host back in 1994. It is 16-0 when scoring 100 or more points and averaging 107.4 ppg this season. The Warriors have a field goal percentage of 47.9. The Warriors, who are 19-3 in the last 22 games, will also host Toronto, Oklahoma City, Indiana and Cleveland on the homestand and lead the NBA with a 24-5 record (.828). Only Portland has more wins with a 25-7 mark (.781). Opponents are shooting a league-low 42.2 percent against Golden State. Meanwhile, Philadelphia is shooting an NBA-worst 41.2 percent and averaging a league-low 90.8 ppg. The Sixers are allowing 102.6 ppg and turning the ball over 17.9 times, which is also last in the NBA. The 76ers are 2-2 on a seven-game road trip and lost for the seventh time in the last nine tries with Saturdays 88-71 setback to the Utah Jazz. Tony Wroten scored a game-high 20 points and Robert Covington chipped in 17 for the Sixers, who shot 32.4 percent and made just 5-of-26 3-pointers. Philly trailed 69-66 with 6:02 remaining, but was outscored 19-5 the rest of the way. Michael Carter-Williams was held to eight points on 2-of-20 shooting and handed out six assists I credit some of their defense, but we just have a hard time scoring, said Sixers coach Brett Brown. Philadelphia is 4-11 on the road and still has stops to make in Phoenix and Los Angeles (Clippers). The Sixers were 9-32 on the road in 2013-14. The 76ers have failed to score 100 points in each of the last six games. They are 1-5 when hitting the century mark in scoring. In injury news, forward Luc Mbah a Moute (calf) is doubtful Tuesday and forward Nerlens Noel (ankle) is listed as questionable against the Warriors. Golden State and Philadelphia will play the first of two meetings this season and are scheduled to tip off again Feb. 9 in south Philly. The Warriors took both matchups with the Sixers a season ago recorded a 123-80 beating on Feb. 10 at Oracle Arena, where former Sixer Speights had 32 points. The Sixers are just 3-10 in the last 13 visits to Golden State. Joc Pederson Jersey . They started shooting the puck.

David Ortiz hit his 450th homer, a colossal three-run drive, and Dustin Pedroia had three RBIs during his second consecutive three-hit game to lead the Red Sox over the New York Yankees 8-5 Sunday night. "To get to where we want to be, those guys are going to have to drive the bus," winning pitcher John Lackey said. "You need the parts to do well, too, but theyre kind of the engine that runs this thing." Lackey (9-5) laboured through five innings before four Red Sox relievers pitched shutout ball the rest of the way. Held to two runs in the first two games of the series, Boston took two of three anyway to finish a 4-6 road trip and improve to 6-13 away from home this month. "Anytime you win a series on the road, particularly against a team thats ahead of us, these are key," manager John Farrell said. Mark Teixeira and Carlos Beltran (three hits) homered for the Yankees, who have dropped six of eight. Rookie right-hander Chase Whitley (3-2) struggled for the second straight start, allowing five runs and eight hits in four-plus innings, as six New York pitchers combined for eight walks. "Youre behind in the count, youre walking people and giving them extra baserunners, it usually leads to damage," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. Koji Uehara worked a perfect ninth for his 18th save in 19 attempts. After averaging 2 hours, 45 minutes in the first two meetings this weekend, the longtime rivals were back to their usual plodding ways in a game that took 3:38. Pedroia made a diving play at second base to limit a Yankees rally, and centre fielder Jackie Bradley Jr. threw out Beltran at the plate to keep the score 8-5 in the sixth. It was Bradleys ninth assist of the season. "Changed the momentum of the game," Farrell said. Pedroia bounced a hit-and-run single through the right side in the third, and Ortiz was booed by the sellout crowd of 48,124 as he stepped to the plate. The slugger answered with a long drive well into the raised bleachers in right-centre to make it 4-0. Ortiz tossed his bat aside and took his time on a wide trot around the bases, saluting his family in the stands as he approached third base. "My son, he always eenjoys watching daddy go deep. Clayton Kershaw Jersey . He was dancing," Ortiz said. The home run put Big Papi in sole possession of 37th place on the career list, two behind Adam Dunn and Red Sox Hall of Famer Carl Yastrzemski. "Pretty cool," Ortiz said. Handed a comfortable cushion, Lackey grew frustrated and shook his head as Brett Gardner and Derek Jeter fouled off pitch after pitch in the third. They combined to see 21 pitches in consecutive at-bats, and Lackey screamed, cursed and gestured wildly when Jeter grounded an RBI single to right. "Thats going to take its toll," Farrell said. Perhaps worn down a bit, Lackey gave up solo homers to Teixeira and Beltran in the fourth, cutting it to 4-3. Whitley and reliever Shawn Kelley threw 10 straight balls to begin the fifth, combining to walk the bases loaded with none out. Pedroia blooped a two-run single and later stayed in a rundown long enough for Daniel Nava to score from third. "Im most frustrated with the pitch to Ortiz, obviously, and the walk to Bradley that set up the fifth. That was unacceptable," Whitley said. Ichiro Suzuki tripled to spark a two-run rally in the bottom half. He scored on Gardners double. Pedroias sacrifice fly made it 8-5 in the sixth. Mike Napoli doubled to start the second and scored on a single by slumping Stephen Drew, his second RBI in 57 at-bats this season. Touted prospect Mookie Betts made his major league debut for Boston in right field. With his parents and fiancee in the stands, the 21-year-old Betts grounded into a double play his first time up but singled in the fourth for his first hit. Jeter tossed the souvenir ball to a Red Sox bat boy, and Betts was promptly caught stealing. "It was great," Betts said, acknowledging he felt some jitters during his first at-bat. "Im not one to put any extra pressure on myself." NOTES: Rookie SS-3B Xander Bogaerts, in a 2-for-35 slump, was left out of the Red Sox lineup. ... Boston is 27-26 at the current Yankee Stadium, the best winning percentage for any visiting AL team. ...
