London, England (SportsNetwork.com) - West Ham United rallied at Upton Park on Sunday to collect a 3-1 win over 10-man Swansea City. The Hammers controlled the early part of the match, but Swansea managed to draw first blood against the run of play when Wilfreid Bony steered home a square pass from Jefferson Montero in the 19th minute. Swansea nearly made it to the halftime interval with the lead in tact, but Andy Carroll brought West Ham level in the 41st minute when he got on the end of a cross from Carl Jenkinson and nodded a looping header into the upper corner. Carroll then handed West Ham the lead at the hour mark with another header, this time guiding a corner kick from Stewart Downing into the back of the net. Swansea was left no way back when goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski was issued a red card in the 68th minute for blocking Diafra Sakho on a breakaway, and Sakho added insult to injury for the visitors by latching on to flick from Carroll and smashing home the dagger three minutes from time. West Ham has won three straight in Premier League play to improve to 27 points and climb to third place, though the Hammers will be ousted from the position by Monday following Manchester Uniteds meeting with Southampton. Swansea remains on 22 points to drop to eighth place. Also on Sunday, Aston Villa came from behind to collect a 2-1 win over struggling Leicester City at Villa Park. Jose Leonardo Ulloa handed Leicester the lead in the 13th minute, but Ciaran Clark equalized within five minutes.

Giambi was hit by a pitch thrown by Edwin Jackson of the Chicago Cubs in the third inning of a March 7 game. X-rays at the time were negative, but Cleveland said Thursday the 43-year-old Giambi had felt increased discomfort over previous five days. "As he continued to show tenderness, we got him an MRI yesterday," manager Terry Francona said. "We treat the symptoms. He will be down for a number of days without activity, just getting treatment. Then when the symptoms are better, we can start getting him into activities. Then we can get him into baseball activities." The 2000 AL MVP, Giambi is a non-roster invitee to big league training camp. The designated hitter hopes to play in his 20th major league season and second with the Indians. Giambi has been hit by 179 pitches during the regular season, 11th on the career list. "I kind of knew. It was a cutter in it hit me just under the pad," said Giambi, who picked the ball up and flipped the it to Jackson. "I didnt want him to think it hurt." Giambi probably will not make the opening-day roster, but the Indians are hoping he will rrebound and be in position to join the big league team later.dddddddddddd "It is why you try to evaluate everybody, because if you need a plan B or a plan C, you have it," Francona said. Giambi is optimistic he will be back soon. "Its not tragic. At least its not displaced," he said. "The doctors told me it is going to be sore and we have to get the trauma down. Guys play with this all the time. Im not discouraged. Its really small, but with the trauma it wont let me swing right now. Its the human body protecting itself." Nyjer Morgan and Jeff Francoeur also are in camp on minor league contracts. Morgan strained his left calf Wednesday. "The trainers say day to day," Francona explained. "We have to protect him from himself. Hes kind of on a mission here if not to show us, to show the world hes back. He plays so hard. He has to pass some tests on the medical side. Thats not to hinder him. Thats to protect him." Right-hander J.C. Ramirez broke his left thumb and sprained a ligament during a "B" game on Tuesday against the Chicago White Sox and will be sidelined for eight-to-10 weeks. He is scheduled for surgery Monday with Dr. Thomas Graham at the Cleveland Clinic. ' ' '
