BALTIMORE -- The Baltimore Ravens frustrated longtime nemesis Ben Roethlisberger long enough to build a three-touchdown lead.By the time Roethlisberger finally found his groove, it was too late.Joe Flacco threw a 95-yard touchdown pass to former Steeler Mike Wallace, and the Ravens beat Pittsburgh 21-14 on Sunday to snap a four-game losing streak.Baltimore (4-4) moved into a tie atop the AFC North with the Steelers (4-4), who have dropped three in a row.Three weeks after undergoing surgery on his right knee, Roethlisberger returned well ahead of schedule. Playing for the first time since Oct. 16, the 13-year veteran looked out of sync until the fourth quarter, when he directed a 75-yard drive that got the Steelers to 21-7 with 8:38 remaining.Before that, Pittsburghs offense produced only two first downs and was limited to 69 yards. The Steelers totaled 36 yards rushing, 32 by LeVeon Bell.Roethlisberger ran for a 4-yard score with 48 seconds left, but Chris Boswell botched the onside kick -- barely knocking it off the tee -- and Baltimore closed out its fourth straight win over Pittsburgh (including playoffs).The bottom line is we put ourselves in a big hole with some adversity, some of which was created by us, Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said.After going 8 for 18 for 54 yards and an interception through three quarters, Roethlisberger finished 23 for 45 for 264 yards.Baltimores only touchdown offensively came on Flaccos pass to Wallace, who was making his first appearance with the Ravens in this bitter rivalry after playing for Pittsburgh from 2009-12.Wallace broke free on the left sideline , caught the pass in stride and outran safety Mike Mitchell to the end zone. It was the longest play from scrimmage in Ravens history during the regular season and second-longest in the NFL this year.The home crowd gasped in the third quarter when Flacco hopped off the field after sliding at the end of an impromptu run. It appeared he had reinjured his surgically repaired left knee, but it turned out that his protective brace broke. He missed only three plays.Flacco completed 18 of 30 passes for 241 yards to help Baltimore earn its first win since Sept. 25, at Jacksonville.The offense of both teams was slowed by a steady stream of penalties. Pittsburgh had 84 yards in penalties in the first half and only 66 yards of offense, its fewest before halftime with Roethlisberger at quarterback since 2009.Baltimore led 10-0 at halftime and 13-0 in the fourth quarter before Javorius Allen blocked a punt and Chris Moore took it 14 yards for a TD and a 21-0 lead with 13:36 to go.Roethlisberger cut the deficit with a 23-yard touchdown pass to Antonio Brown. The Steelers then forced a three-and-out, and Roethlisberger brought Pittsburgh to the Baltimore 13 before a sack created a fourth-and-18.Roethlisberger threw incomplete. Minutes later, he took the Steelers 65 yards for a score in his final shot at the end zone.QUOTEABLESteelers: Tomlin on Roethlisberger: He was healthy to play. He was willing to play. I appreciate his efforts and his display of will.Ravens: We gave up some plays down the stretch. ... We will take the win, but we are not satisfied, linebacker Terrell Suggs said.MR. TOUCHDOWNMoore, a rookie, has scored two touchdowns on special teams in the past two games. I might not be able to catch some touchdowns, but Im still going to score, said Moore, a wide receiver from Cincinnati.MR. SMITH RETURNSRavens WR Steve Smith returned after missing two games with an ankle injury. He had Baltimores first catch, a 30-yarder, and finished with four receptions for 47 yards.INJURIESSteelers: C Maurkice Pouncey (dislocated finger) missed part of the first quarter, returned and left for good with the same injury in the third quarter. ... LB Jarvis Jones was injured making a first-quarter tackle and did not return until the second half. ... S Jordan Dangerfield (groin) left in the fourth quarter.Ravens: RB Kenneth Dixon left in the fourth quarter with a bruised chest.UP NEXTThe Steelers host the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.

This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season.

LOUIS -- Hard-throwing pitching prospect Tyler Glasnow will make his major league debut for the Pittsburgh Pirates against the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday night.The 6-foot-8 right-hander has a 1.78 ERA in 96 innings at Triple-A Indianapolis and runs his fastball up to 99 mph. He was a fifth-round pick in 2011 and has ranked among the Pirates top prospects since breaking out in Class A in 2013.The team announced the move Wednesday and Glasnow was already in St. Louis. While hed been anticipating the call-up, it took a while before the news sank in with his father, who will be at his debut.My dad answered (the phone) and I told him, Glasnow said. And it didnt register right away with him. He was saying, `Yeah, I was just wondering when you are going up. I said, `I just told you, and he was like, `Oh my God!The 22-year-old Glasnow will be the second Pittsburgh starter to make his debut in three days after left-hander Steven Brault got a no-decision Tuesday against the Cardinals.The rotation spots opened in part because Jameson Taillon -- another prized pitching prospect who debuted this season -- went on the disabled list Sunday with right shoulder fatigue.Glasnow became a hyped prospect when his velocity jumped into the upper 90s, but the Pirates are excited by the way hes developed his entire reperrtoire in the minors, including a promising curveball.ddddddddddddIts a downhill angle, manager Clint Hurdle said. Its firm. Its hard. The curveball plays. The changeup hell use aggressively as well. Hes shown the ability to throw those secondary pitches in offensive counts.Glasnow was particularly dominant in June. He strung together 13 consecutive hitless innings during two starts on June 17 and June 22, and he hasnt allowed more than two earned runs in a game at Triple-A since May 12. He leads the International League with 113 strikeouts and allowed few hard-hit balls, ranking fourth by allowing 0.38 home runs per nine innings.The later starts we figured out it was kind of dont go out and try to throw so many strikes, Glasnow said. I got into that and got out of my athleticism and started to try and dot up the zone. With me ... the more aggressive I am, the better I am in the strikes ousins.Hes put together a very good v
