MIAMI -- Three days after Jose Fernandezs death, the Miami Marlins keep finding new sources for fresh tears. One such example was provided by catching coach Brian Schneider, whose 6-year-old son adored the late Marlins ace and followed him around the ballpark like a puppy.After Fernandez died in a boating accident over the weekend, Holden Schneider attended kindergarten Monday and wrote a story about his favorite major leaguer. When his dad circulated the image among the players in the Miami clubhouse, eyes welled on cue.My kids just gravitate to Jose, Schneider said. After batting practice on Saturday, I didnt see Holden for a half-hour or 45 minutes. He was out there on the field with Jose. Heres this little boy who doesnt know any different, and everybody knew how much he looked up to Jose.Guys told me they were doing good, and then they read that, and they started to tear up. And when I read it, I teared up too.This is how life unfolds as the Marlins play out the season under the most trying of circumstances. They hold daily meetings to discuss changes in the schedule and ways to honor their late teammate amid suppressed appetites and restless nights of sleep. Meanwhile, the games go on as usual.Monday night, Dee Gordon launched an improbable home run into the upper deck and the Marlins rode a wave of adrenaline to a 7-3 victory over the New York Mets. On Tuesday, the wave subsided in the face of?Noah Syndergaards pitching, and the Marlins lost 12-1 to the Mets.On Wednesday, a public memorial for Fernandez will begin outside Marlins Park at 2 p.m. ET, and a funeral motorcade will leave from the park at 2:16 (in honor of Fernandezs uniform number). Fans will have an opportunity to pay their respects throughout the evening during a public viewing at St. Brendans Catholic Church in Miami.On Thursday, an open date in the schedule, Marlins players, coaches and front-office personnel will attend a private mass with Fernandezs family. The Marlins will then fly to Washington for a season-ending series against the Nationals.The atmosphere at Marlins Park on Tuesday couldnt possibly have matched what took place in the series opener when Fernandezs teammates honored his memory with one touching gesture after another, and Gordons early homer sent a surge through the air. The Miami hitters were overwhelmed Tuesday by Syndergaard, and Marlins starter Tom Koehler lasted a mere 3 2/3 innings while falling behind 4-1. The New York lineup piled on late against the Marlins bullpen.I think everybodys doing the best they can, Koehler said. Were not trained to handle anything like this. As professional athletes, we kind of get desensitized to a lot of things. Were able to go out and play regardless of the situation. But its usually individual situations. One guy might be dealing with something on a normal night and the other 24 arent. This hit everybody. So everybody deals with it in different ways.As manager Don Mattingly has routinely pointed out, the Marlins have no road map or historical precedent to navigate the nightmare theyve encountered. The team has made grief counselors available for the players, but talking, venting and crying can only achieve so much.The Marlins left the ballpark late Tuesday knowing they would be eliminated from postseason contention with a San Francisco Giants victory. At 78-79, Miami can post its first winning record since 2009 with wins in three of its next four games. But its a challenge for Mattingly or anyone else in a Miami uniform to find perspective amid the heartache.Obviously, we see so much on television and what people are saying nationally, Mattingly said. Its hard to get a feel when youre in the middle of it. You dont get to see where the waves and the ripples are going. We know whats coming the next few days, but I dont know if we know the full impact of it. As time gets away from us, Im sure guys will look into it more, read more and see how far those ripples go.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- Indiana finally took advantage of its opportunities Saturday night and delivered a signature Big Ten win for coach Kevin Wilson.Richard Lagow caught one touchdown pass and threw for two more. The Hoosiers forced Michael Geiger to try a 49-yard field goal after back-to-back sacks. And after Griffin Oakes missed his third field goal of the game, a leaping call against No. 17 Michigan State gave him a second chance and he made a 20-yarder two plays later to complete an improbable come-from-behind 24-21 upset over the Spartans.The exuberant Hoosiers ran down the field to get their hands on the Old Brass Spittoon, the series trophy that they hadnt won since 2006.Theyre excited about winning, Wilson said. I think they knew if we played hard and got into the fourth quarter that wed have a chance and we did.Indiana (3-1, 1-0 Big Ten) won its s first overtime game in six years and got its second win in 26 tries over a ranked foe, but it wasnt easy.The Hoosiers nearly won it in regulation with a goal-line stand, after a replay review overturned a tying TD run by the Spartans. Instead, Michigan State quarterback Tyler OConnor found a wide open Josiah Price for a 2-yard TD pass with 11 seconds to go to tie the score.In overtime, after Geiger pushed his kick to the left, Oakes also missed his to the left before the leaping call on Drake Martinez.Michigan State (2-2, 0-2) has lost back-to-back games for the first time since November 2012 despite holding the usually prolific Hoosiers scoreless until the final minute of the third quarter.Great drive at the end of the game to tie it up, but not very good in overtime -- thats for sure, coach Mark Dantonio said. We were sacked twice, we jump over the pile. Very disappointed. Now we have to claw our way back into things.THE TAKEAWAYMichigan State: The Spartans knew they faced a big challenge after Connor Cook & Co. graduated. But nobody in East Lansing could have expected a 0-2 start in conference play. Now the defending Big Ten champs no longger control their own destiny, either, falling two games behind No.dddddddddddd 2 Ohio State, No. 4 Michigan and unbeaten Maryland in the East Division.Indiana: The Hoosiers turnaround continues. After making the postseason for the first time since 2007 last year, they now have two trophies -- the Old Oaken Bucket and spittoon -- on campus for the first time since 2001.POLL IMPLICATIONSMichigan State: The Spartans will likely slide out of the rankings this week and will find it tough to make it back in without an upset of the Wolverines or Buckeyes -- or both -- later this season.Indiana: The Hoosiers victory may garner some votes but probably not enough to move into the rankings.BIG PLAY SPARTANSOConnors 86-yard TD pass to R.J. Shelton was the longest by an opponent in Memorial Stadium, breaking the previous mark of 82 yards set by the Spartans in 2008. It also was the fourth-longest pass play against the Hoosiers, matching the length of a TD pass Kirk Gibson caught in 1978.INJURY REPORTThe most significant injury was to Michigan State cornerback Darian Hicks, who left with what appeared to be a hip or waist injury. Dantonio did not provide an update after the game. The Spartans had several players leave during the game but the others to be serious. Michigan State played without linebacker Riley Bullough for the second straight week. Indiana didnt appear to sustain any additional injuries but played again without right tackle Dimitric Camiel (back) or right guard Dan Feeney (concussion).UP NEXTMichigan State: Next weekend, the Spartans host BYU but they cant afford another slip up. They need to start building momentum for the Big Ten race.Indiana: The Hoosiers visit No. 2 Ohio State next weekend, a team theyve challenged in recent years but still havent beaten since 1990 -- or in Columbus since 1987.---Online:AP college football coverage at www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
