PITTSBURGH --?Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger absolutely expects Andrew Luck to take the field for the Indianapolis Colts on Thursday night, but he cautions the star quarterback to be smart while in concussion protocol.Roethlisberger is drawing from experience after 12-plus years in the league and multiple concussion-related issues.The brain is nothing to mess with, Roethlisberger told Indianapolis reporters on a conference call. He is young and has a long career ahead of himself.Roethlisberger, 34, said he has to expect Luck, 27, to play because Lucks a tough competitor and one of the best in the game. But he wouldnt knock Luck for sitting if necessary.The Tennessee Titans sacked Luck twice and hit him eight times in the Colts win Sunday, with defensive tackle Austin Johnsons fourth-quarter hit likely forcing Luck into the concussion protocol.Luck must be cleared before playing. Scott Tolzien is the backup. On the season, Luck is averaging 3.5 sacks per game.Roethlisberger was in the protocol last season after taking a hit from Seattle Seahawks defensive tackle Michael Bennett in a Week 12 loss. He played the next game, with six full days to recover compared to Lucks three days this week. Roethlisberger said after that game that he didnt have a concussion. Roethlisberger has taken 453 sacks in his career, 34 in the past two seasons. Roethlisbergers concussion history dates to at least 2006, when he was questionable for a game with the Oakland Raiders while coming off a head injury.When asked by Indianapolis media whether hes kept track of his concussions, Roethlisberger said, I have no idea. Maybe too many.I have played this game a long time and younger days in my career when I wouldnt have [missed time], and there were many times that Ive said that I havent told anybody that I had been dinged or had a concussion, Roethlisberger said. Looking back on it, I wish I wouldnt have. You have to be smart when it comes to your brain because you only play football for such a short period of your life. When you have a family and people that you are going to be with for the long term, you have to really make sure your health is taken care of.Roethlisberger has played through several injuries as part of what he calls a violent sport. One injury cant be played through, he says.You can rub dirt on a lot of things, but you cant rub dirt on the brain, Roethlisberger said.ESPNs Mike Wells contributed to this report.

Kerry, Two nights after the Scott-Eriksson incident in Buffalo, the Bruins returned home to play San Jose. In that game, Zdeno Chara put a check on Tommy Wingels that clearly targeted his head.

Peter Gammons, an analyst for Major League Baseballs network and website, drew the ire of hockey fans on Sunday when he criticized the two NHL teams on Twitter for their physical game the night before. CLEVELAND -- Addison Russell lofted a fly ball in the first inning, and right fielder Lonnie Chisenhall converged with center fielder Tyler Naquin.Probably an easy play in a half-filled ballpark on a hot summer night, the 284-foot fly turned into a disorienting disaster for the Cleveland Indians?on Tuesday night during Game 6 of the World Series.With a loud, raucous crowd packing Progressive Field in hopes of witnessing Clevelands first World Series title since 1948, the ball hung in the air for 5 seconds. Chisenhall pulled up and looked at the onrushing Naquin, who was a few feet behind him.A 25-year-old rookie who made his debut on opening day, Naquin had no chance by then to make the catch. The ball bounced past him for a two-run double, as Anthony Rizzo scored and then Ben Zobrist?--?who bowled over Indians catcher Roberto Perez.The Chicago Cubs?had built a three-run lead before Jake Arrieta threw his first pitch.It counts as a hit, which I was totally stoked, Russell said. I thought that was going to be kind of a routine play.Far from it.Cleveland never recovered, and Chicago coasted to a 9-3 win that forced the World Series to a deciding Game 7.Kind of one of those deals you wish you could take back, Naquin said. Me being the center fielder, I need to take charge on that.Even after the game, the sequence of what happened was unclear. Naquin said both players called for the ball. Chisenhall said neither did.Baseball practice dictates that corner outfielders defer to their teammate in center.Its Naquins ball. He was playing on that side, and hes the center fielder, Indians manager Terry Francona said. I think at the end there, as Lonnie was kind of pulling off, Naquin was yelling, Its yours. You got it.Chisenhall, a 28-year-old converted third baseman in his sixth big league season, appeared to follow protocol.Still, he shouldered the blame.I should have caught that ball. I made the aggressive move on it, Chisenhall said. The balls moving towards me, and somebodys got to catch it. It should have been me.He said he saw me moving towards the ball, and I should have continued my route, and I kind of felt him coming, so I pulled up. But I should have kept going.By the third inning, Chisenhall did take charge and cut in front of Naquin to catch Kris Bryants fly with a runner on as the center fielder slid behind him.ddddddddddddYouve got to catch the ball. You cant let another one drop, so you risk making a collision, Chisenhall said. We talked about it. We were both avid about not letting the ball hit the grass.Chisenhall and Naquin had a long discussion during a pitching change later in the inning, joined by left fielder Coco Crisp. Naquin said he suggested they use their arms as flippers to signal each other.Three pitches later, Russell hit a grand slam off Dan Otero for a seven-run Cubs lead.Naquin, the 15th overall pick in the 2012 amateur draft, hit .296 with 14 home runs and 43 RBIs during the regular season but is 4-for-25 (.160) with two RBIs in the postseason, including a strikeout that left the bases loaded in the fourth on Tuesday night.In the crucible of the World Series, defense can go awry.Last year, the Royals?Alcides Escobar drove the first pitch of the World Series to the left-center warning track, where Mets center fielder Yoenis Cespedes and left fielder Michael Conforto came together. The ball ricocheted off one of Cespedes feet and rolled along the fence, as Escobar sped around the bases for the second inside-the-park homer to lead off a World Series game.A year earlier, San Francisco center fielder Gregor Blanco allowed Kansas City batter?Alex Gordons two-out single to bounce past him for an error that put the potential tying run at third base with two outs in the ninth inning; some questioned whether Royals third-base coach Mike Jirschele should have waved Gordon home. Madison Bumgarner then retired Salvador Perez on a foul out, saving the Giants 3-2 win in Game 7.And with Game 7 in 1968 scoreless in the seventh inning, Detroits Jim Northrup hit a two-on, two-out drive that was misjudged by St. Louis center fielder Curt Flood and fell behind him for a two-run triple. The Tigers held on for a 4-1 victory behind Mickey Lolich, the last pitcher to win three starts in a single World Series.Cleveland ace Corey Kluber will try to match that feat in Game 7 on Wednesday night.Weve just got to win the game tomorrow, Chisenhall said. I think we leave winners, people will remember that. ' ' '
