DETROIT -- Jeremy Hill scored a touchdown on Cincinnatis first possession, but that was it for the Bengals when their top offensive players were in the game.I think we need to score more points, Hill said. We left too many on the field when we were out there. We did finish one drive, which we didnt do last week, but we need to do a better job of converting third downs.Hill ran for a 9-yard touchdown, and the Bengals went on to a 30-14 victory over the Detroit Lions on Thursday night, but this was not a great offensive show by either teams first stringers. Cincinnati benefited from a defensive touchdown and didnt really put the game away until the second half.Hill hurt his left hand in Cincinnatis preseason opener last week, but he had three carries for 16 yards against the Lions and also caught a pass.Former Cincinnati wide receiver Marvin Jones, signed by the Lions in the offseason, had four catches for 65 yards against his former team.It was neat seeing them, Jones said. Those are the guys Ive gone against every day for four years, so it was good to kind of be on the other side and go against them.Detroits Matthew Stafford was 8 of 11 for 113 yards, but the Lions went without a touchdown until the final minute of the game.Cincinnatis Derron Smith returned an interception 60 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter.Andy Dalton was 7 of 9 for 78 yards for the Bengals.LACK OF BALANCEDetroit has struggled for years to develop a running game good enough to complement Stafford and his receivers. In the first quarter Thursday when the top players were in, the Lions passed for 103 yards and rushed for 14.I think across the board, I dont think we did a lot of things well, Detroit coach Jim Caldwell said. I dont think we tackled well, I dont think we ran the ball well, I dont think we stopped the run very well. So weve got work to do.ROOKIESBengals: WR Tyler Boyd continues to impress. After a 40-yard catch in last weeks game, he made a nice diving grab of Daltons pass for a 26-yard gain on Cincinnatis first possession. Boyd later caught a 12-yard touchdown pass from AJ McCarron with 12 seconds left in the first half.Thats why hes here -- hes supposed to make plays, Cincinnati coach Marvin Lewis said. Hes a smart kid who understands how to play this game, and hes done a good job of taking advantage of the opportunities hes getting.Lions: TE Cole Wick was beaten by a pass rusher in the first quarter on a play in which Stafford was hit and fumbled, but he also had two catches for 26 yards.INJURY UPDATEBengals: T Jake Fisher walked off slowly in the first half with a sprained right ankle. He took over at RT after Cedric Ogbuehi injured his toe last week, so now Cincinnatis depth could be tested even further.Lions: The absences of TE Eric Ebron and LB DeAndre Levy werent huge surprises, and Detroit didnt appear to have any major health issues among those who played.POSITON BATTLESBengals: Mike Nugent missed a field goal on the opening drive last week against Minnesota, and he missed an extra point and a field goal against Detroit. There was no real competition for his job, but if he falls into an extended slump, perhaps there could be. Nugent did make a 50-yard kick in the fourth quarter.Lions: Theres some uncertainty at the backup quarterback spot, with Dan Orlovsky doing little to inspire confidence when his interception was returned for a touchdown. Rookie Jake Rudock received a nice hand when he came on in the fourth quarter, but the University of Michigan product was also intercepted on just his third pass attempt.QUOTABLEIve never seen anything like this.

Russell Westbrook Jersey . SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. ANAHEIM, Calif. -- The last time the Los Angeles Angels faced Taijuan Walker, they had their way with him and knocked him out of the game in the first inning.On Tuesday night, they barely got any hits off him.Walker pitched a three-hitter for his first career shutout as the Seattle Mariners beat the Angels 8-0 to win their season-high seventh straight.In his last start against Los Angeles on Sept 3, Walker gave up five earned runs in only two-thirds of an inning, his shortest start of the season.It was night and day the way we faced him up in Seattle a couple weeks ago, Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. He had good stuff, good command. He pitched a good game for them.Following that start 10 days earlier, Seattle pitching coach Mel Stottlemyre helped Walker change his mechanics.The change paid off, as he was also able to strike out Mike Trout three times Tuesday. Coming into the game, Trout was hitting .818 with three home runs and six RBI against Walker.Kaleb Cowart spoiled Walkers perfect game bid when he reached on throwing error by shortstop Ketel Marte with two outs in the sixth inning.Walker (6-10) still had a no-hitter going, until Kole Calhoun came through with a leadoff single through the right side in the seventh inning. Only two balls left the infield until that hit. Walker matched a career high with 11 strikeouts -- the fifth time hes reached that mark. It was his first complete game since July 31, 2015.My legs were getting heavy, my stomach was starting to tingle, Walker said. The game was so long, it was taking forever. The offense was going out there every single inning and getting hits and I was just like, `Ugh, this is getting longer. But right after I went out there and gave up the hit I felt really good. I got a chance to go from the stretch and I feel really good going from the stretch.Nelson Cruz and Norichika Aoki hit home runs and Seth Smith hit a grand slam to close the scoring.Angels rookie Alex Meyer (0-3) gave up four earned runs and five hits over four innings in his fourth mmajor league appearance.ddddddddddddIve just got to do a better job of mixing in off-speed earlier, Meyer said. I tried to do too much with my fastball early on, especially when I was behind. They were jumping all over that and I wasnt able to throw it by anybody tonight.Smiths grand slam, his second this season, came off of reliever Mike Morin with two outs in the sixth. He drove Morins 1-1 off-speed offering over the scoreboard and into the right field stands.The Mariners hit Meyer -- acquired from Minnesota along with Ricky Nolasco at the trade deadline -- hard from the beginning. Cruz launched a massive two-run shot that nearly reached the concourse in left field in the first inning and Leonys Martin scored on sac fly in the second before Aokis home run, making the score 4-0.The ball to Cruz was supposed to be a fastball away and it came back over the middle of the plate, Meyer said. I didnt get any swing and miss on my fastball tonight, which was not ideal. I threw a lot more changeups tonight than I ever have in a start.TRAINERS ROOMAngels: LHP Tyler Skaggs will miss his start with left forearm soreness and will undergo an MRI. Skaggs had Tommy John surgery in 2014 and was slated to make his 10th start since his return. Manager Mike Scioscia said the MRI is precautionary given his injury history.
