Former Test allrounder Andrew McDonald has been confirmed as Victorias new head coach, after he announced during the week he was leaving his position in charge of Leicestershire.The vacancy with Victoria opened up after David Saker was named Australias new assistant coach in July, and McDonald soon became the leading candidate. He was appointed head coach of the Melbourne Renegades - a position that Saker had also held - earlier this month and Cricket Victoria has now confirmed that McDonald will also take the state reins.The move continues a rapid coaching rise for McDonald, 35, who less than two years ago was still playing in the Sheffield Shield. Although he ended his career with South Australia and also played four Tests during 2009, most of McDonalds career in Australia was played with Victoria - he appeared in 71 first-class games for them for 3516 runs at 40.88 and 163 wickets at 28.18.Over the past two years, McDonald has been a popular coach of Leicestershire, lifting the performances of the struggling county, and now he will take over a side sitting in a position of strength in Australian cricket. Victoria have won the past two Sheffield Shield titles, first under long-time coach Greg Shipperd in 2014-15, and then under his replacement Saker in 2015-16.Im really pleased to be coming home to Victoria to take on the coaching role with the Commonwealth Bank Bushrangers, McDonald said. The state team is in a really good place on the back of consecutive Shield victories and Im looking forward to building on that culture of success and delivering results across all formats.Im a proud Victorian and have been lucky enough to share some big wins playing cricket for this state. Im excited about the challenges that are ahead of us and I look forward to working with the coaching staff and the players led by Matthew Wade on the busy schedule ahead.Tony Dodemaide, the Cricket Victoria CEO, said: Were delighted that Andrew has agreed to return to Victoria after his time in charge with Leicestershire. He brings a great enthusiasm and knowledge to the role and knows Victorian cricket well which stands us in good stead ahead of the upcoming Sheffield Shield season and Matador BBQs One Day Cup.The Commonwealth Bank Bushrangers have enjoyed terrific success in the last two years with our consecutive Shield victories. Andrew - a former Shield winner himself - understands elite performance environments and is looking to build on that success this season. Jaylon Smith Youth Jersey .

MIAMI -- Marlins second baseman Dee Gordon issued an apology addressed primarily to his young fans as he returned from an 80-game suspension for a positive drug test.I know I let you down, and Im sorry, Gordon said in a video from the UNINTERRUPTED, a multimedia platform for athletes. Complacency led me to this, and Im hurt. I urge you guys to be more responsible than I am about what goes into your body. I wouldnt wish this on anyone.Gordon, who won the National League batting and stolen base titles last year, was reinstated before Thursdays game against St. Louis. Batting leadoff, he went 0-for-4 in a 5-4 loss to the Cardinals.Gordons hitless effort Thursday dropped his season average to .255.I thought he seemed a little quiet and probably a little nervous, Marlins manager Don Mattingly said. As the game went on, he seemed more like himself.Gordon tested positive for two performance-enhancing substances and was suspended in late April. Gordon acknowledged in April that he unknowingly took the banned substances.Marlins president David Samson said then that the second baseman had betrayed the team and its fans. On Wednesday, Samson said the Marlins are glad to have Gorrdon back.ddddddddddddI believe that America and our fans and our players and us, were a pretty forgiving society, Samson said. Its important Dee ask for that forgiveness, and he has, and hell receive that. Hes got to continue to work to get himself back in with his teammates and the fans and my son.In his video, Gordon said he learned from his mistake.I thought being the smallest guy I would never fail a drug test, said Gordon, who is 5-foot-11, 170 pounds. I didnt pay attention at all and I didnt meet the standards. Thats my fault and no one elses. But dont give up on me.To make room on the roster for Gordon, the Marlins designated for assignment infielder Don Kelly, who had two triples in Wednesdays victory. Even without Gordon, the Marlins have remained in contention for their first playoff berth since 2003.Last year, Gordon batted .333, stole 58 bases, became an All-Star for the second time and won his first Gold Glove. The season earned him a $50 million, five-year contract in January.The Associated Press contributed to this report. ' ' '
