WIMBLEDON, London -- Is that all you got? Ivan Lendl joked after Andy Murray smashed a ball his way in practice on Tuesday morning.There was the usual banter as the world No.2s coach kept the mood light during final preparations and then it was strictly business once Murray stepped out on Wimbledons Centre Court against Liam Broady.Murray showed Lendl exactly whats in his locker as they bid for a second title here together. He executed a clinical?6-2, 6-3, 6-4 win over his wild card opponent, in what was the first all-British meeting at a Grand Slam since 2006, and first at Wimbledon since 2001.The Scot got almost everything right Tuesday -- apart from a slip up in his postmatch press conference after rain disrupted much of the days play.Im happy I got done in three sets. If that had gone to four, potentially Id have to hang around and wait, he said. Actually, I wouldnt. I had the roof. Wouldnt have to worry about that!Murrays timing on court was perfect, though: he managed to beat the bad weather by a matter of minutes, having got the job done in less than two hours. As soon as the players walked off, the covers came on and the roof moved into place.Murray joked on social media that he got out of jail free after his second five-setter in as many matches during the first week of the French Open last month.His early exertions at Roland Garros certainly didnt help him the final against Novak Djokovic, and he looks determined to avoid a similar scenario here, should the anticipated rematch take place a week Sunday.The Scot was presented with a good opportunity to find his feet against a lower-ranked opponent but didnt mess around.Murray didnt drop serve once in 14 games, winning 88 percent of his first serve points. He looked aggressive from the baseline, hitting 31 winners and winning 18 of 19 points at the net too.He also didnt allow Broady a single break point in the first two sets and there was only one blot on his copy book all afternoon; a loss in concentration coughed up two chances for the world No.235 at 3-2 in the third set but Murray held from 15-40 down.Any tournament its important, when you have a chance to win a match quickly, to do it, Murray said. Its not always that easy. Sometimes your opponents can play very well, and sometimes youre struggling a little bit.When you have the opportunity in matches to finish them, you have to try and be ruthless. The French Open was tough for me. I had a couple of long matches to start the tournament.I have also won the matches fairly quickly. I just need to try and understand why thats been the case in the past, and hopefully I can have another good start here.Murray and Lendl are off to a hot start together after reuniting on the eve of Queens. They claimed the title there -- a record fifth for Murray -- and have gone six matches unbeaten. If they add six more they will have another, more coveted crown.?Lendls nickname is Old Stoneface, earned through his lack of visible emotion during a playing career that brought eight Grand Slam titles, but on the practice court he is all smiles.We both enjoy a little laughter here and there, the Czech told the BBC, and?Murray has indeed seemed more relaxed since he has been back with the man who guided him to his two major titles and Olympic gold medal during their first spell together.Lendls competitive nature -- he was not a happy person after losing to Murray on the golf course on Monday -- also seems to be something they have in common.Murray told ESPN before the match how having Lendl back as his coach gives him more confidence.?The Czech-born American hasnt been trying to teach Murray technique, and sees himself more as a motivator and tactician.Whatever he has been doing, it appears to be working.

Thankfully for the Los Angeles Dodgers, the bullpen could. Again.Despite his struggles, McCarthy won his second straight start after a 14-month recovery from Tommy John surgery, and the Dodgers scored a disputed run to beat the San Diego Padres 4-3 on Saturday.I hadnt really had one yet, coming through the minor leagues, a day where it felt totally foreign, but today it did, McCarthy said.Yesterday, the ball felt perfect in my hand, he said. Today it felt like I was throwing a football.McCarthy (2-0) gave up three runs in five innings, including a first-inning, two-run homer by Yangervis Solarte.The right-hander retired 10 of the next 12 hitters, holding the Padres to a pair of walks.

He broke the mark of 23 set by John Candelaria in 1991, but didnt know it at the time.Dave was coming out, and Yas (Dodger catcher Yasmani Grandal) came out and said, Congrats. And I didnt know what he was talking about, he said. It seemed like a really weird thing to say in that situation. Im getting pulled and the guys saying, Congrats. Kenley Jansen pitched a scoreless ninth for his 26th save.It was 3-all in the fifth when Corey Seager scored from second base on a throwing error by shortstop Alexei Ramirez as he tried to complete a double play.With runners at first and second, Adrian Gonzalez hit a high bouncer to second baseman?Ryan Schimpf, who threw to Ramirez for a forceout.Justin Turner slid toward the outfield side of second base -- which he grabbed as he went by -- and Ramirez made a wide throw that glanced off the glove of first baseman Wil Myers. The Padres challenged the call, but replay upheld the original ruling that Turners slide was legal.Youre running along the grass and then the next that you know, youre 6 feet outside of the grass, so you clearly at some point in time changed his path, Padres manager Andy Green said.ddddddddddddWas it not close enough to call? I guess thats what they decided, he said.Solarte homered over the fence in right-center field to give the Padres a 2-0 lead in the first. Over his last 19 games, Solarte is hitting .380 (27 for 71) with seven doubles, four homers and 16 RBIs.Luis Perdomo (3-4) took the loss.POMERANZ TO PETCOPadres starter Drew Pomeranz (8-7, 2.47) was picked on Saturday to the National Leagues All-Star team for the first time in his career.Hes earned everything hes gotten this year, Green said. Hes definitely rewarded the front office for the faith it had trading for him, and understanding the type of pitcher he could be, and is.MOST IN MAJORSTravis Jankowski easily stole second on the first pitch to Solarte in the first inning, his ninth theft in 16 games since June 21, the most in the majors during that stretch.TRAINERS ROOMPadres: C Derek Norris was back in the starting lineup after leaving Friday nights game with a right quad contusion suffered in a first-inning collision with Dodgers 2B Chase Utley.
