I think it helps a little bit when youre able to get a couple points on the power play at the beginning of the game. It kind of settles you down.Ryan OReilly had two goals and an assist for Buffalo, and Kyle Okposo and Sam Reinhart also scored.Its a momentum thing, OReilly said. You go out there and you watch (Eichels) line and theyre possessing and hes making plays and creating and coming on right after that its the same thing, you kind of feed off that.The power play, too, once he gets the puck its so tough for people to get it off him.Robin Lehner started and gave up one goal on six shots before leaving late in the first period. Anders Nilsson replaced him and stopped 26 shots for Buffalo.Sabres coach Dan Bylsma said Lehner is day to day with a hip injury.Mike Hoffman had three goals and an assist for the Senators, and Mark Stone also scored in his 200th NHL game. Craig Anderson, making his sixth straight start, made 23 saves.Ottawa scored twice on the power play, but also gave up three while short-handed.We lost the special teams battle, Anderson said. At the end of the day youve got to win the special teams battle or tie it to give yourself a chance. Usually were pretty good, but we just werent able to shut those guys down for some reason.Senators coach Guy Boucher said his teams slow start was the difference.Thats what killed us, thats what sank us, Boucher said. I think our guys showed, like usual, a resiliency in coming back and we wanted it to be a one-goal game coming into the third so we did that. So we were only one goal behind, but then we didnt get the goal.OReilly extended Buffalos lead to 5-3 with a power-play goal with 3:17 left.Hoffman got the Senators within one on the games fifth power-play goal with 1:31 remaining to complete his hat trick with his seventh of the season, but that was as close as Ottawa got.Trailing 3-1, Stone got the Senators within one on a power-play goal at 8:20 of the second after pouncing on a loose puck. It gave him five goals and four assists in his last eight games.The Sabres restored their two-goal lead as Evander Kanes shot deflected past Anderson off Reinharts skate with 2:52 left in the second.Ottawa cut the lead again as Hoffman tipped Erik Karlssons shot just 43 seconds later.Buffalo opened the scoring 6:16 in with a power-play goal as Ottawas Cody Ceci tried to tie up Reinhart in front of the net, but instead had Okposos shot go in off his skate.Eichel scored his first, on the power play, 3:15 later.The Senators cut the lead in half as Hoffman buried Mark Borowieckis rebound with 6;13 left in the period, but the Sabres replied 31 seconds later as OReilly came into the slot and scored off his backhand.By the end of the game the Senators were without Bobby Ryan, who aggravated a hand injury early in the second and Marc Methot who suffered a lower body injury late in the second.Game notes Senators G Andrew Hammond was recalled early Tuesday and was a healthy scratch, as was LW Max McCormick and D Fredrik Claesson. ...

Great fans, beautiful field. Sometimes in baseball you have to turn the page. I spent a lot of time with the Giants, had great memories. But when you come back here you have to turn the page and do the best you can do.Sanchez spent his first five seasons in San Francisco as a backup behind four-time All-Star catcher Buster Posey and had homered only twice previously at AT&T Park before hitting a 2-2 pitch from starter Jeff Samardzija (11-10) into the stands above the brick wall in right field with one out in the sixth.Its Sanchezs first three-hit game since May 17, 2014.That was crazy. I didnt expect the ball to go out, Sanchez said. I guess I put a good swing on it and lucky for me it went out.Yangervis Solarte drove in two runs and Luis Sardinas added two hits while helping the Padres to their fourth consecutive win over the Giants.It was a bitter loss for San Francisco, which dropped four games behind the first-place Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL West after trimming two games off the lead last weekend.With 19 games left, however, the Giants still lead the race for the leagues top wild card.We have not been consistent with our lineup, San Francisco manager Bruce Bochy said. It sure looks bad to get shut out when you get back home the first day, but were staying behind these guys.Padres starter Paul Clemens (3-5) fought through flu symptoms earlier in the week and vomited between innings but still pitched five gritty innings to end San Franciscos three-game winning sstreak.dddddddddddd The right-hander allowed three hits, walked one and struck out two.He actually held it together stuff-wise better today than he has in his previous couple of starts, San Diego manager Andy Green said. It was a cool night so Im sure that helped him, too. He was just very, very good under the circumstances.Solarte had an RBI single in the fourth and drove in another run in the fifth with a grounder.Hunter Pence had two hits for the Giants.SHARK BITTENSamardzija allowed four runs over six innings, struck out six and walked one. Not a terrible outing but one that quickly went south when Sanchez homered. It was only the second home run allowed by Samardzija in his last seven starts The two-run homer put a sour taste in my mouth with the way things were, Samardzija said. I left a splitter a little bit up in the zone and (Sanchez) was able to put a barrel on the ball.TRAINERS ROOMPadres: Green said RHP Tyson Ross (right shoulder inflammation) hasnt progressed as quickly as the team had hoped and isnt likely to pitch again this season.
