England scrum coach Neal Hatley insists Mako Vunipolas rapid set-piece improvement has transformed him into the complete player.Alex Corbisiero, a distinguished predecessor in the Red Rose number one jersey, has acclaimed Vunipola as the best loosehead in world rugby on the strength of a rampaging start to the season at Saracens.While the impact in open play of Englands form player has never been doubt, his scrummaging was considered a potential weakness until the recent progress brought about by a technical adjustment.Mako has been absolutely outstanding for Saracens in the first half of the season, Hatley said. There arent many props in world rugby that can do what he does with the ball in hand.His set piece has come on immeasurably. Sometimes people get pigeon-holed as a carrying prop or a scrummaging prop and I think he crosses that divide.Hes been very sound from a set-piece point of view. Weve made a few little technical changes to his bind and thats had a real positive effect.There are a lot of good players around, but hes definitely getting there in terms of being the best loosehead in the world. If Corbs said that, its a pretty good endorsement.South Africa open the autumn series at Twickenham on Saturday while experiencing their worst run of results for a decade, including a record home defeat to New Zealand, but Hatley insists their threat must not be underestimated.They will probably go with a big pack and a big back five in the way theyve tried to do for most of the year. It will be a good side, Hatley said.They have been a state of flux, but when theyve played well they have been very impressive. The Lions did well in Super Rugby. Were expecting a good side to turn up.They have a very good scrum and will probably load up on that back five. There will be big bulk there so it will be a testing day from a scrum point of view.England name their starting XV on Thursday morning, with Tom Wood set to edge Nathan Hughes for the openside duties.Elliot Daly lined-up at outside centre during training on Tuesday and Hatley confirmed that Jonathan Joseph, his rival for the position and the more established option, is fully fit and available for selection.Replacement scrum-half Danny Care has a minor shoulder injury, but will be fit to take his place on the bench.

DETROIT -- Tom Koehler got off to another rough start, and the Miami Marlins could not recover.The right-hander gave up four runs in the first inning, and the Detroit Tigers went on to a 10-3 win over Miami on Wednesday.Koehler allowed four runs in the opening inning of his previous start, a 5-4 loss to the Chicago Cubs.It obviously looks bad because Ive gotten into so much trouble in the first inning twice in a row, but I dont think they had much in common, Koehler insisted. The Cubs were barreling up everything and just hitting rockets all over the park. I think they had six hits in 14 pitches at one point.

The problem is that we gave one run back, and that just takes all the momentum away from you.dddddddddddd It got sloppy after that.Daniel Norris (1-0) struck out a career-high eight and gave up two runs on eight hits and a walk over five innings.Norris started for the second time this season, replacing Matt Boyd in the rotation after he was sent to Triple-A Toledo earlier this month.The Marlins put two on in the first before Norris struck out Marcell Ozuna looking and Giancarlo Stanton swinging to end the threat.With the traffic, the strikeouts became very important, Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said.Ichiro Suzuki had two hits for Miami, increasing his major league total to 2,988.
