The Houston Dynamo have swung a trade with Toronto FC that could allow them to sign free agent defender DaMarcus Beasley. Houston has completed a deal for the top spot in the MLS allocation order in exchange for midfielder Warren Creavalle, the 14th allocation spot and allocation money. According to MLSsoccer.coms Darrell Lovell, the Dynamo will use the top allocation spot to sign the American national, Beasley. Beasley is currently a free agent, his previous contract with Mexican club Puebla having elapsed. However, were he to make a return to the MLS, he would be subject to the allocation process. The Dynamo were previously 14th in the allocation order, hence their need to trade up in the queue to secure the 32-year-olds services. Beasley just participated in his fourth FIFA World Cup, becoming the first American to appear in four tournaments. He played in all four of the U.S. matches at the tournament. He has 17 international goals, amassing 120 career caps. The signing was made official, Beasley released a statement on his move to Houston. "I am excited and ready to start this new chapter in my career," Beasley said in a statement. "I have heard great things from Brad (Davis) and Rico (Clark) about Houston, the team and the fans, and Im excited to get to know them. I feel fit and ready to go and hope Dom (coach Dominic Kinnear) will see my work ethic and desire to play at a high level." Creavalle, 23, has appeared in 16 games with the Dynamo this season, starting 10. He has appeared in 54 career MLS games with the Dynamo over three seasons, notching three goals. He appeared in five MLS Cup Playoff games with the Dynamo in 2013. "Warren is a player that we have been watching closely for some time now and we feel his versatility will be a welcomed addition to our club," Toronto GM Tim Bezbatchenko said. "Houston expressed interest in switching allocation positions so combined with our interest in Warren this move was a win-win for both clubs." Beasley has a history with MLS, though he has not played in the league since 2004. He broke into the league with the Los Angeles Galaxy in 1999 before spending four years with the Chicago Fire. He has spent his subsequent years overseas, spending three years with PSV Eindhoven, a loan spell with Manchester City, three seasons with Scottish side Rangers as well as three years with Germanys Hannover 96. He has been with Puebla since 2011. Head coach Dominic Kinnear of Houston said that "DaMarcus has had a great career, as we saw at the World Cup, to bring in a player of his quality is a big plus for the team."

SAN FRANCISCO -- Mike Leake has gotten stronger every year, and his fastball velocity has increased as a result. Even so, he still doesnt know where all those strikeouts came from. Leake allowed four hits in eight innings and had a career-high 12 strikeouts in the Cincinnati Reds 3-1 victory over the San Francisco Giants on Thursday night. "It didnt feel like that many," said Leake, who allowed one run and walked one, which was intentional. "But I guess its a big accomplishment. Im not high on strikeouts." Cincinnati manager Bryan Price thinks Leake (6-6) could be a strikeout pitcher if that was his goal. "Hes pretty consistent hitting 93, 94 mph with his fastball," said the former pitching coach. "Thats not a fastball you have to apologize for. He could throw more pitches and be less effective but strike out more guys." Brandon Phillips had three hits, including a home run and double, and scored twice in his return to the lineup for the Reds, who won their fifth in six games. Leake, still looking for his first major league shutout, didnt try to talk his way onto the mound for the ninth. He hasnt pitched a complete game in nearly two years. Aroldis Chapman worked the ninth for his 15th save in 16 chances. "We have a good closer, why not use him?" Leake said. Jay Bruce and Todd Frazier each added two hits for the Reds. Bruce doubled in the seventh and has an extra-base hit in each of his last seven games, the longest streak by a Reds player since Dave Parker did it in eight straight in 1986. "We seem to play well here," Bruce said. "With this pitching staff, if you put runs on the board, you have a chance." Adam Duvall, making his major league debut, hit a home run for the Giants, who lost for the 12th time in 16 games. Ryan Vogelsong (5-4) allowed a run on five hits over six innings one day after Tim Lincecum threw a no-hitter against the San Diego Padres. He struck out seven and walked one. "I rubbed up against him before the game, but it didnt work," Vogelsong said. "I just wasnt good enough." Jean Machi, who allowed Phillips home run leading off the seventh, had his scoreless sstreak end at 25 1-3 innings.dddddddddddd Zack Cozart and Ryan Ludwick also drove in runs for the Reds, who have won eight of their last 10 games, including playoffs, in San Francisco. The Reds ended a scoreless duel with a run in the fifth. Phillips, who missed the last three games with a bruised heel, led off with a single. Two outs later, Cozart doubled him home. Bruce followed Phillips homer with a double and scored on Ludwicks single. Duvall hit a 0-2 pitch from Leake into the left field bleachers to put the Giants on the scoreboard. "Thats a feeling Ill never forget running the bases," Duvall said. "I tried to tell myself it was the same game, just a bigger crowd." Leake allowed a two-out double to Buster Posey in the first and then retired 15 of the next 16 hitters before Hunter Pences triple in the sixth. Leake improved to 4-0 with a 0.87 ERA in four starts at AT&T Park. The Giants also threw out two runners at home. Billy Hamilton tried to score on Devin Mesoracos shallow fly to second baseman Joe Panik in the sixth, and Brandon Crawford nailed Mesoracso trying to score on Phillips double to centre field in the eighth.
