MONTREAL -- It wont take long for the Montreal Impact to renew acquaintances with Dennis Iapichino. The left back was signed by D.C. United on Thursday after being waived by the Impact and will be available to face his former team when the two clubs play tonight at Saputo Stadium. You can see all the action on TSN beginning at 7pm et/4pm pt. "Yeah, sometimes football is strange but first of all I want to wish the best of luck to Dennis because hes my teammate but also my friend," Impact centre back Matteo Ferrari said. "Im happy for him that he found another situation thats good for him because he needs to play and I think he will be good in D.C." Jeb Brovsky agreed that it was a curious coincidence that he may be facing his former teammate so soon after the 23-year-old Swiss defender was let go. In a little over a year with the Impact, Iapichino played 16 MLS regular season games, including 12 as a starter. "Its always interesting to see a guy in a different jersey," said Brovsky, who scored his first MLS goal in the 3-1 loss in Washington on Aug. 3. "Obviously we hope for the best for him as an individual and on and off the field I think we can only hope for his success, but on Saturday were certainly not hoping for his success." Saturdays match comes two weeks after league-worst D.C. defeated the Impact 3-1 at RFK Stadium. The Impact have been struggling against everyone lately. A frustrating 2-1 loss in Chicago last Saturday left Montreal with just one win its last eight MLS games. The Fire scored six minutes in before dropping the Impact into a 2-0 hole in the 23rd minute. "In Chicago we walked in the locker-room and everyone was exceptionally frustrated, to say the least, because we knew that we were probably the better team on the day," Brovsky said. "We wanted to get some goals and its never going to be pretty but frustration is a good word for us right now. But thats the great thing about this game. We get to come back on Saturday and prove ourselves again." The Impact have lost three straight on the road, beginning with a 4-0 thrashing by the New York Red Bulls on July 13. Montreal has been outscored 9-2 during the three road losses. Brovsky wonders what happened to the team that won a pair of West Coast road games on its way to a 4-0 start. "You know at the beginning of the year I think we had a bit of nastiness," Brovsky said. "I think we had a bit of grit, especially coming down the stretch, especially away from home. I thought in Portland and Seattle you saw a team who was just willing to put their face in front of the ball and really do anything they can to keep it out of the net. "Obviously we havent got a couple of bounces in the past couple of weeks but I think you make your own bounces and obviously away from home we havent been making our bounces lately. We need to get back to that because we need to win some games on the road to get into a good playoff spot so I think it just comes down to a willingness to go the extra two or three feet." While success has eluded the Impact lately on the road, coach Marco Schallibaums squad has been treading water throughout its last four home games. Undefeated at 6-0-1 through their first seven games in Montreal, the Impact have won once and tied twice at Saputo Stadium since June 29, when a 4-3 loss to Colorado sunk their perfect home record. The rematch against D.C. United on home turf is timely in Schallibaums eyes. Washington went 13 games without a regular season Major League Soccer win over a three-month stretch from mid-March to mid-June. Last in the Eastern Conference with a 3-16-4 mark for a league-worst 13 points, D.C. United has yet to win in 10 road games this season, including seven losses and three draws. Curiously, Washington has streaked through U.S. Open competition. D.C. United won 2-0 in its semi-final at Chicago on Aug. 7 and will face Real Salt Lake in the final on Oct. 1. "Its good. Its always important to have another chance," Schallibaum said. "We know that theyre a team that had a good result against us and Chicago, but they lost again in the championship so its our job to make this pressure, its our job to score the first goal and its our job to win the game and get the three points." The six days off between games this week were a welcome oasis for the Impact, which has yet another busy stretch ahead with a CONCACAF Champions League game in Guatemala on Wednesday. "We played three games in eight days so weve got guys that have played a lot of minutes," midfielder Patrice Bernier said. "The rest of this week has been concentrating on trying to elaborate a little bit more and vary our game like we did in the second half in Chicago, where we opened up the game. "That creates space for everybody and then we can find the right solutions because we have a lot of guys with a lot of talent to find players and we have to be able to do that and be unpredictable against our opponents. A lot of teams have realized that going through the middle and blocking the middle and forcing us to maybe force passes and then countering on our mistakes, now we have to open the game and create as much space as we can for ourselves."

Just three batters into the first inning, Cabrera was ejected by home plate umpire Brian Gorman and Detroit went on to lose 5-1 to the Chicago White Sox on Monday night. The reigning AL MVP and 2012 Triple Crown winner complained to Gorman that he had checked his swing on an 0-1 Sale pitch that struck him in the right knee. "I tried to get out of the way and (Gorman) said I swung, I was too far out," Cabrera said. "I asked him how could he explain that. I dont know, I just tried to get out of the way. I told him that a couple of times." Gorman countered, "(Cabrera) was told to stop arguing and continued to argue and he was ejected for continuing the argument." Manager Jim Leyland ran out to defend his player and he was booted too. "I guess I made my point a little too long and (Gorman) decided to run me and thats fine," Leyland said. "I wasnt questioning the calls at all. I just thought (Cabrera) was an unnecessary ejection." Chris Sale (11-12) outpitched Scherzer, denying him a 20th victory. Sale gave up one run and four hits in eight innings to win for the fifth time in six decisions. "We ran into a buzzsaw with Sale," Leyland said. "He was absolutely terrific." Sale was heartened by Cabreras ejection, but it didnt make his job any easier, either. "I was kind of like thank you, the best hitter to ever walk the planet leaving after the first," Sale said. "(But) it doesnt get any easier after that. Youve still got to make pitches because theyve got a heck of a lineup up and down." Scherzer (19-3) gave up five runs and six hits in four innings as he lost consecutive starts for the first time this season after Boston beat him Sept. 3. It was Detroits fifth loss in six games, dropping the Tigers lead in the AL Central to 4 1-2 games over Cleveland. "I just made too many mistakes, elevated the ball, it was too high, I wasnt able to get it down and it cost me," Scherzer said. As for failing for the second straight time to get his 20th win, Scherzer shrugged. "Im not going to beat myself up over this outing," he said. "Ive been pitching too well this year to do that. Im just focused on what I can control and I just need to go out there and pitch the way Im capable of." Mondays game was the second meeting of the season between the All-Starr pitchers.dddddddddddd. The first was on July 22, when Scherzer pitched eight innings and allowed two runs to beat Sale, who also went eight but was victimized by two unearned runs. This matchup was different for Detroit, which has scored only 14 runs in September apart from its 16 on Friday against Kansas City. Sales strikeout of Austin Jackson to end the third gave him 200 on the season in 190 2-3 innings pitched. It made him the fastest pitcher in White Sox history to 200 strikeouts in a season, passing Javier Vazquez in 2007 (207). After the ejections during the top of the first, Chicago gave Sale a lead in the bottom of the inning. The White Sox took a 2-0 advantage with two outs when Paul Konerko singled to centre, driving in Alejandro De Aza and Gordon Beckham. Beckham walked with no outs and advanced to second on Adam Dunns fly ball to centre, which also got De Aza to third. Chicago scored three times with two outs in the fourth. Dayan Viciedos RBI single gave the White Sox a 3-0 lead, then Scherzers throw to first on Josh Phegleys soft roller between third and home was well away from Prince Fielder, bringing in Viciedo and Jordan Danks. Danks was in the lineup in place of former Tigers outfielder Avisail Garcia, who had two teeth pulled Monday and was held out. Victor Martinez broke up Sales shutout bid with one out in the seventh with his 12th home run of the season. NOTES: White Sox general manager Rick Hahn called their season "gut-wrenching" and said they have "a number of areas we need to upgrade." ... Leyland sounded happy with the results of the July 30 three-team trade that sent Garcia to Chicago, Jake Peavy to Boston and Jose Iglesias to Detroit. Garcia entered Monday hitting .320 in 27 games for Chicago, Iglesias has replaced suspended Jhonny Peralta in the Tigers lineup and was batting .297, and Peavy was 3-1 with a 3.55 ERA, giving all three teams production from their new players. "Thats what you want in trades because then you can deal with those people again," Leyland said. ... White Sox DH Adam Dunn refuted a recent report that he was considering retirement. While he did say that the White Sox playing the way they have is a "letdown" he also said "I dont know where that comes into that Im retiring." ... White Sox pitching coach Don Cooper (diverticulitis) was back with the team after missing two games. ...Tuesdays pitching matchup is Rick Porcello (11-8, 4.76) against Chicagos Erik Johnson (0-1, 4.50).
