MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- Jay Ajayi got a second chance, and so did the Miami Dolphins.They made the most of both.Ajayi scored on an 11-yard run with 8:26 left in overtime, and the Dolphins escaped with a 30-24 win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday -- the first victory for first-year head coach Adam Gase.We come out here in our first game and showcase to our home fans what were about, and offensively were out there flopping it around, said Gase, who was in no celebratory mood afterward. It irritated me a little bit.Ajayis game-winner came one play after Miami quarterback Ryan Tannehill found a wide-open Jarvis Landry for a 32-yard gain, as the Dolphins (1-2) avoided what would be their first 0-3 start since 2011.Tannehill threw for 319 yards and three touchdowns for Miami, and Landry caught seven of those passes for 120 yards.Cody Parkey, who was signed Saturday after Patrick Murray was hurt the day before in practice, missed three field goals for Cleveland, including a 46-yarder as time expired in regulation. The Browns had a golden chance to win after Corey Lemonier stripped the ball from Tannehill and recovered the fumble himself with 20 seconds left.Parkey went wide left, some Dolphins fans who were leaving turned around in the stairwells, and to overtime they went.I know everybody will say it came down to the field goals, but Im not going to put that kind of pressure on Cody, Browns coach Hue Jackson said. Cody just got off a plane with us and I dont know him as well as I know this chair right now.Cleveland started Cody Kessler at quarterback, making him the third player in as many weeks to hold that job for the Browns. The Browns lost Robert Griffin III and Josh McCown in the seasons first two weeks, and ultimately got a spark from quarterback-turned-wide-receiver.Terrelle Pryor became the first Browns player since 1977 to have multiple receptions, rushes and passes in the same game. The former Ohio State quarterback, now primarily a receiver, started taking some snaps in the games second series and finished with eight catches for 144 yards -- along with 35 passing yards and 25 rushing yards. Pryor even played safety on the last play of the first half.Dynamic athlete, Miami defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh said. Whether hes playing quarterback or wide receiver hes obviously effective.Miami trailed 13-10 at the half. Landry caught a 42-yard touchdown pass in the third quarter to put the Dolphins on top, and the lead got stretched to 24-13 when Tannehill hit Damien Williams with what became a 10-yard scoring throw early in the fourth.Clevelands first offensive touchdown in its last 16 series came with 10:12 left, when Pryor scored on a 3-yard run. The two-point conversion got the Browns within 24-21, and Parkeys 38-yard field goal later in the fourth pulled Cleveland into a tie.And in OT, Ajayi -- who didnt even fly with the team to Seattle for its season opener -- capped it with a run around the left side.Im always happy to get a win. It was ugly, we didnt play well at times today, but we stuck together and found a way, Tannehill said.WELCOME, ROOKBriean Boddy-Calhoun was inactive in Week 1 and Week 2 for Cleveland. He made his debut one to remember, becoming the first player in franchise history to run back an interception for a score in his first NFL game.GOOD CALLCleveland won the coin toss prior to overtime and let Miami have the ball, even though a Dolphin touchdown on that possession would have ended the game. Miami wound up punting. The way we were playing offensively, it was probably a good idea, Gase said.QUOTABLEPatriots coach Bill Belichick offered a memorable Were on to Cincinnati series of quotes in October 2014, not wanting to answer questions about Tom Brady after a bad loss to Kansas City. Gase, whose club goes to Cincinnati on Thursday, channeled some Belichick on Sunday. Were moving on to Cincinnati, Gase said.INJURIESDolphins C Mike Pouncey (hip) missed a third straight game, and his replacement -- Anthony Steen -- left with an ankle injury 15 seconds into the fourth quarter, so Miami turned to third-stringer Kraig Urbik. The Dolphins also lost LB Jelani Jenkins (quad), LB Koa Misi (neck) and TE Jordan Cameron (assessment for concussion). Tim Howard Jersey . On June 12, just as the sun sets on the magnificent historical city of Sao Paulo the inventors, innovators and purveyors of “joga bonitowill” open their campaign. The opponent, Croatia and all its football might and will. As opposites do attract we are set for a corker of an opener. Omar Gonzalez Jersey . On Saturday night, the normally free throw-challenged centre did just that. Howard scored 18 of his 25 points in the fourth quarter, including 13 of 19 free throws in a 2 1/2-minute stretch, and the Houston Rockets beat the Denver Nuggets 122-111. http://www.soccerusateamonline.com/Bill-Hamid-America-Jersey/ . -- The St. Johns IceCaps weathered a wild first period with the help of goaltender Jussi Olkinuora, before finding offensive inroads in the second. Christian Pulisic Jersey . Any real chance at payback wont come until the playoff. Still, Pittsburgh knows its taut 3-2 win over the Bruins on Wednesday night is a pretty good place to start laying the groundwork. "They are a very good defensive team," Penguins forward Brandon Sutter said. Michael Bradley USA Jersey .In my heart and mind Im competing for India, luge competitor Shiva Keshavan told The Associated Press in an email interview. Every day Im flooded with messages from Indians all over the world telling me they are supporting me. PHILADELPHIA -- Julio Teheran made his major league debut at Citizens Bank Park in 2011. He likes coming to Philadelphia, and it shows.Teheran pitched six sharp innings, Matt Kemp homered and the Atlanta Braves beat the Phillies 2-0 on Sunday for their sixth consecutive win.Teheran (5-9) allowed five hits and struck out seven while lowering his ERA to 3.01. The right-hander improved to 5-1 with a 1.55 ERA in six career starts in Philly.Everything is coming together, Teheran said. I feel really good. The last two innings I really battled, but I made pitches.Teheran cruised through the first four innings, and then wriggled out of bases-loaded jams in the fifth and sixth. Maikel Franco grounded out for the final out of the fifth and Peter Bourjos lined to right on Teherans final pitch.He was really good, Braves manager Brian Snitker said. That last inning he battled his butt off. Hes healthy now and his velocity is back up. Hes back where he needs to be.Jim Johnson worked the ninth for his 15th save, finishing a five-hitter.Kemp, who was acquired in a July 30 trade with San Diego, hit a leadoff drive in the second for his 28th homer. Freddie Freeman added another leadoff drive in the eighth for his 29th of the year.We got off to a really bad start this season, but Brian made us keep a low profile and everything is now going well, Freeman said. Matt has been a big contributor, too. He got us going today.Philadelphia dropped its sixth consecutive game, wasting another solid start by Jake Thompson (1-5). The rookie right-hander allowed four hits, struck out six and walked four in seven innings.This was a miserable homestand and theres not much good to talk about, Phillies manager Pete Mackanin said. However, it was very good to see Thompson pitch the way he did. It was great to see.Chris Withrow and Ian Krol each pitched a hitless inning before Johnson struck out the side, hhelping the Braves match their longest winning streak of the season.ddddddddddddLike Teheran, Thompson got into a couple of jams but also pitched out of them, getting Nick Markakis to ground into a double play to escape a bases-loaded situation in the sixth and retiring Adonis Garcia on a grounder to third with the bases loaded in the seventh.The loss for the Phillies marked only the fourth time in franchise history that they dropped every game of a homestand of six games or longer. They also did it earlier this season. The other two times were in 1883 and 1964.SURGINGAtlanta center fielder Ender Inciarte extended his hitting streak to 15 games with a single in the sixth inning. ... Freeman extended his hitting streak to 11 games with a double in the fourth inning. He has reached safely in 27 straight for the longest active streak in the majors. The double was the 200th of his career.PUNCHLESS PHILLIESThe Phillies were shut out for the eighth time this season. They have scored the fewest runs in the majors this season (500) and only scored 11 runs in the six-game home stand.REINFORCEMENTS COMINGAfter shutting down Vince Velazquez following his start Saturday because he reached his innings limit, Phillies general manager Matt Klentak said Alec Asher likely would be recalled to take his place in the rotation. Klentak said he expected about a half-dozen more players to be recalled once the minor league playoff season ends.UP NEXTBraves: RHP Ryan Weber (1-0, 5.24 ERA) opposes Nationals RHP Max Scherzer (15-7, 2.89 ERA) in the opener of a three-game series in Washington on Monday afternoon.Phillies: RHP Jerad Eickhoff (9-13, 3.90 ERA) faces Marlins RHP Jake Esch (0-0, 4.15 ERA) in the first game of a three-game series in Miami on Monday afternoon.
