Kyle Edmund defeated Andreas Seppi to reach his first ATP Tour semifinal at the European Open in Antwerp.British No.2 Edmund posted one of the best wins of his career in round two against David Ferrer and followed it up by taking only 68 minutes to beat former top-20 player Seppi 6-3, 6-4.It has been a superb season for Edmund, with the last couple of months particularly impressive, and his latest feat could well push him into the top 40.Should he do so, he would join Nick Kyrgios and Alexander Zverev as the only players aged 21 or under in the worlds leading 40 players.In the last four, the Yorkshireman will take on French third seed Richard Gasquet, who he beat in the first round of the US Open in August.Gasquet saw off Germanys Jan-Lennard Struff 6-2, 6-4 while fourth seed Pablo Cuevas suffered a shock 7-6(8), 6-3 defeat to Diego Schwartzman.

WASHINGTON -- Long after the concourses emptied, the sky cleared up as the tarp still covered the field. Game 2 of the NL Division Series between the Washington Nationals and Los Angeles Dodgers still had to wait.Major League Baseball postponed the Dodgers-Nationals game until Sunday at 1:08 p.m. because it expected the rain that fell throughout the morning and afternoon to continue well into the night.The teams were scheduled for a 4:08 p.m. first pitch Saturday. But rain that intensified as Hurricane Matthew moved up the coast and a forecast of 100 percent certainty for precipitation until at least 8 p.m. forced the decision, Commissioner Rob Manfred said.We hate to cancel, said Manfred, who arrived Saturday afternoon after a flight from New York. We hate to make travel worse on the players than it was originally intended to be. But it just doesnt look like were going to have a situation that would be safe for the players to play.Rain stopped falling at Nationals Park around 4 p.m., about an hour after the decision was made to postpone the game. Rain was scheduled to resume in the early evening.LA leads the best-of-five series 1-0 after a 4-3 victory Friday night.Manfred said he expected the weather to be better Sunday at Nationals Park and hopes to be in a sunny period. Its supposed to be 61 degrees and windy around game time.Left-hander Rich Hill (12-5, 2.12 ERA) will start for the Dodgers against right-hander Tanner Roark (16-10, 2.83). Manfred said the rest of the series will proceed as scheduled with Game 3 Monday afternoon at Dodger Stadium, as the rain wiped out the travel day to the West Coast.Nationals second baseman Daniel Murphy said players came in prepared to play but was glad the decision was made quickly.Hats off to Major League Baseball for canceling this early, Murphy said. Im sure they didnt want either pitcher to get out there and get caught in a situation where you lose one of them, especially in a short series like this.The postponement means the teams willl have to play and fly Sunday.ddddddddddddWe do East-West travel like this during the regular season, Manfred said. Its not ideal but doable.Its expected to be Dodgers righty Kenta Maeda against Nationals lefty Gio Gonzalez in Game 3. LA manager Dave Roberts said lefty Julio Urias would start Game 4, if necessary, which would leave ace Clayton Kershaw available for a possible Game 5.STICKING WITH ESPINOSANationals manager Dusty Baker stuck with Danny Espinosa on his initial Game 2 lineup despite the shortstop going 0 for 3 with three strikeouts in Game 1. Asked why he continues to play Espinosa, Baker was blunt.Well, who else do I have? Baker said. If you can give me somebody better, then I can play somebody instead of him. Certain times you have certain people on your team and thats what youve got. Now, my job is to hopefully get the most out of them and make them better.BLISTERS IN THE SUNThe blister issues Hill has been dealing with make it unlikely hed be able to come back for a potential Game 5 on short rest, Roberts said. That means the Dodgers wont try to push Kershaw to pitch on short rest in Game 4.Weve been very cautious up to this point, Roberts said. Thats a variable that is kind of start to start, and well see how he is.Hill wasnt worried about the blisters in wet weather, either, which now wont be a concern.GONZALEZ GOES WESTGonzalez will fly to Los Angeles before the rest of his teammates Sunday to get some extra rest. He struggled during the regular season but hopes to be able to take advantage of the Dodgers lefty-heavy lineup and wants to go deep into Game 4.Its never easy facing that lineup, Gonzalez said. I would never say, `Hey, just go out there and pitch. You definitely have to some have common sense to throw some of these guys. You cant just groove a fastball right down the middle.---AP Sports Writer Howard Fendrich contributed. ' ' '
