Geelongs preliminary final could be Tom Lonergans last AFL match but the veteran defender insists hes not thinking about his playing future.Lonergan, 32, is one of three big name flag-winners to come out of contract at seasons end along with Corey Enright and Jimmy Bartel.As a 2016 All-Australian, Enright - who turned 35 on Wednesday - is clearly playing well enough to continue on.While the form of 32-year-old Bartel has been less solid, hes understood to have triggered a new one-year deal that was available to him.As the less celebrated of the three, Lonergan has drifted under the radar as a potential 2016 retiree but that suits him fine.The defender says hes all-in on the finals series and cant spare a moment to ponder what the future holds.I havent even thought about it, he said.Its not even worth talking about until we get past the next couple of weeks.The bodys been good and Ive been enjoying my footy. Its great when you do get the wins.Ill sit down with the club at the end of that period and discuss where we go from there.Lonergan said criticism of fantastic Bartel had totally past him by, saying the group wanted the bearded Brownlow Medallist playing next weekend.He is a great player and hes stepped up on the big occasions so many times. We love playing with him and well leave it with the coaches to make that (selection) call, he said.Hes cool and calm under pressure ... I hope hes there in prelim week.Lonergan said the club was preparing for Lachie Henderson to play in their preliminary final after he showed his recovery from minor knee surgery by training on Tuesday.Geelongs two-point win over Hawthorn in last Fridays qualifying final has given the Cats a two-week break, and theyre treating it like one.Five days after the win, Lonergan said the Cats were yet to train with any intensity, focusing instead on recovery.We had a really good preparation leading into the Hawks game and well look to have a really good hit-out over Thursday and Saturday, he said.And there are no plans for a get-together to watch Saturday nights semi-final between Sydney and Adelaide to discover their opponents as a group.We spend too much time together already, Lonergan laughed.Well just watch it ourselves. Some guys mightnt even watch it. Well see enough vision next week of our opponents. Benoit Pouliot Oilers Jersey . -- Eastern Kentucky thrives off creating havoc for others.

John Lucas, signed as a mentor for rookie Trey Burke, showed he can score if required, scoring 12 points of his 16 points in the second quarter as Utah built an 18-point lead. HOUSTON -- The New York Yankees had trouble with Lance McCullers curveball on Wednesday night and it led to a 4-1 loss to the Houston Astros.McCullers struck out 10 in six solid innings and Colby Rasmus broke out of a slump with a two-run homer to lead the Astros.McCullers (6-4) allowed five hits and one run and tied a season high by fanning 10 for the second straight game.He kept the Yankees off-balance by throwing almost as many curveballs as fastballs, but to Brian McCann it seemed like more than that.Hes got one of the better curveballs youre going to see and out of 90 pitches it seemed like he threw 89 of them, McCann said. He has a great arm and a really good curveball.McCann cut the lead to 4-1 when he led off the fourth inning with a home run to center field.Didi Gregorius singled with one out before McCullers walked Starlin Castro. But McCullers ended the threat by striking out the next two batters to end the inning.McCullers then struck out the side in the fifth to make it five in a row.McCanns homer was the highlight of the night for the Yankees, who managed just four other hits, which were all singles, and struck out a season-high 15 times.You want to try and hit his fastball because you know its going to be tough to put a good swing on his curveball, manager Joe Girardi said. I thought our bats were pretty good often but his stuff was that good.Rasmus snapped an 0-for-29 skid when he sent an off-speed pitch from Masahiro Tanaka (7-3) into the seats behind the bullpen in right-center field to make it 4-0 with one out in the thirrd.ddddddddddddKen Giles and Luke Gregerson pitched a scoreless inning each before Will Harris got his 11th save by striking out two in the ninth.Tanaka, who entered the game with a 1.50 ERA in nine road starts, allowed seven hits and four runs in five innings for the loss. He had thrown 12 1/3 straight scoreless innings on the road before an RBI single by Carlos Gomez with one out in the first inning.He had the one bad inning. He left the (splitter) up, he left a couple pitches up that inning, manager Joe Girardi said. They made him work. He had a real easy first inning and then after that they really made him work. The one inning really did him in.Tanaka said his problems came down to execution.Just the location of the balls, he said. I was just throwing it to a spot where they were able to get a good swing on it.Marwin Gonzalez extended his hitting streak to a career-high 11 games with a single to start the third. He advanced to second on a groundout and took third on a wild pitch. A single by Carlos Correa came next to score Gonzalez and push the lead to 2-0.Rasmus then collected his first hit since July 5, when he also homered and drove in two runs, on his 12th homer this season.TRAINERS ROOMAstros: Gomez left the game before the third inning with a strained right hamstring.UP NEXTYankees: New York has a day off Thursday before opening a three-game series at Tampa Bay with Ivan Nova (7-5, 4.65) on the mound.
