SANTA CLARA, Calif. - Jim Harbaugh isnt budging, even if his new broken tooth offers a symbolic glimpse into the story of his disappointing year.No wavering when it comes to his coaching future, thoughts about his bosses in the San Francisco front office, or even whether the 49ers have fallen too far to have hope of a 2014 recovery.After two straight demoralizing defeats in which the Niners have managed only 16 total points, Harbaughs future is the hottest topic around his team. And thats a far cry from the coachs first three seasons when San Francisco was playoff bound and poised for a deep post-season run — as in three straight NFC championship game appearances.Still, Harbaugh spent his regular Monday media session defending quarterback Colin Kaepernick and the effort of his players a day after a 24-13 loss at Oakland that gave the Raiders just their second victory of the season and put a major damper on San Franciscos playoff hopes as the team dropped to 7-6.Colins our quarterback, Harbaugh said. When you talk about a professional, he is that. Hes given every ounce of energy that he has.Other topics strayed far from the field. Harbaughs smile Sunday revealed a chipped left front tooth. He said Monday it happened Saturday night on a piece of meat ... a $2 steak.That tooth was knocked out in his last playoff game as a pro, a 42-14 loss by his Colts to the Steelers in the wild-card round in December 1996.Harbaughs smile was on display when he came out of the tunnel at the Oakland Coliseum and hustled right up to Raiders owner Mark Davis, considered a potential suitor for Harbaughs services in 2015 given Oakland could have a vacancy. Tony Sparano was named interim coach when Davis fired Dennis Allen in late September.Just said hello, said Harbaugh, who noted he knows Davis a little bit from when I coached at the Raiders.The 49ers are preparing for a second meeting with the defending Super Bowl champion Seahawks in 17 days when they travel to Seattle this weekend looking to bounce back from that embarrassing 19-3 loss on Thanksgiving night.You take great love and pride in being a professional. Thats every day, thats every week, thats every game, thats every play, until the whistle blows, Harbaugh said. You take pride in snapping on the film the next day and showing youre playing with every ounce of effort that you have because of the love of the game and the pride you have in being an NFL football professional. ... The efforts there.Harbaugh wouldnt discuss an NFL Network report that the University of Michigan, his alma mater, had reached out to him about its head coach vacancy.As Ive said, as a principle I dont talk about any other job other than the one that I have, Harbaugh said.When asked whether he is satisfied with the professionalism throughout the franchise, including those working above him, Harbaugh answered only with, Were a team.CEO Jed York chose not to post anything critical on Twitter this time, as he did Thanksgiving night when he wrote: This performance wasnt acceptable. I apologize for that.On Monday, fans supporting Harbaugh were tweeting at Yorks account with EXTEND HARBAUGH and We got ya back Coach!Harbaugh is winding up the fourth season of a $25 million, five-year contract he signed in January 2011. Even before the season began with a Super Bowl on everybodys mind there were questions whether this would be it for Harbaugh, who hasnt received an extension — or made it clear he even wants one, for that matter.Harbaugh didnt offer any hints into linebacker Ahmad Brooks status for this week. His streak of consecutive starts ended at 60 on Sunday, when he was benched and didnt play at all after missing a defensive meeting last week.He was in a backup role this last game and well address that this week, Harbaugh said.There wont be any changes to the coaching staff this week to shake things up, Harbaugh said.As far as his own future, he insisted once again that he is most concerned about winning and taking care of his players the rest of the way.Ive answered this question many times, even recently. So you know exactly what my priorities are, he said. I get this from the Marines. Leaders eat last.___Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Fake Yeezys Cheap .

Burnett and Marlon Byrd were the two acquisitions the Philadelphia Phillies were hoping would help them get back to the post-season. Well, they helped them get a win in a season going nowhere. Burnett threw 7 1-3 sharp innings, Byrd hit a three-run homer and the Phillies beat the San Diego Padres 5-2 on Tuesday night. "Create some momentum. We just have to carry it over into tomorrow," manager Ryne Sandberg said. Back from a 1-5 trip that left them tied with the Cubs for the worst record in the NL, the Phillies opened a six-game homestand with only their 13th win at Citizens Bank Park. Burnett (4-5) allowed two runs and three hits to earn his first win since May 20. "It all starts with our pitching," Burnett said. "If we hold them down and give our guys a chance, the better off well be." Jonathan Papelbon left the bases loaded in a scoreless ninth to record his 300th career save, becoming the 26th pitcher to reach that mark. He has 14 consecutive saves after blowing his first try. "It was tough because I didnt feel that emotion in a while," Papelbon said. "It means a lot to me, more than most people would think." Will Venable hit a solo homer for San Diego. Starter Ian Kennedy (5-7) gave up five runs and seven hits in seven innings. Kennedy retired the first nine batters before Ben Revere lined a double to right to start Philadelphias fourth. Chase Utleys RBI single tied it at 1. After Ryan Howard singled, Byrd hit an opposite-field shot into the seats in right-centre field for a 4-1 lead. "It seems theres always one pitch youd like to take back and that was the pitch," Kennedy said. "Not a good location." Utley and Howard hit consecutive singles before Byrd drove in another run with a sacrifice fly in the sixth to make it 5-1. That was enough for Burnett, who shook off his recent struggles and was in control throughout. The righty was 1-4 with a 7.25 ERA in his previous six starts. Burnett waalked two after issuing 10 in his last two starts.dddddddddddd "It looked like he was throwing more strikes and he had some contact outs early in counts," Sandberg said. "He also mixed in some two-seam fastballs, which worked for him in getting ground-ball outs to left-handed hitters." Burnett only threw 89 pitches before giving way to Jake Diekman, who got the final two outs in the eighth on strikeouts. Diekman reached 100 mph on one of his fastballs. "I dont like to come out of a game, period," Burnett said. "But he throws a little harder than me." The Padres took a 1-0 lead in the third when Venable lined a 3-1 pitch into the seats in right for only his second homer in 179 at-bats. Venable hit a career-high 22 homers last season. The light-hitting Padres entered with the worst batting average in the majors at .218. Carlos Quentin snapped an 0-for-24 slump with a seventh-inning double. But Everth Cabrera (0 for 18) and Jace Peterson (0 for 18) were 0 for 5 to extend their hitless streaks. Quentin scored on Yonder Alonsos sacrifice fly to cut it to 5-2. NOTES: The Phillies had some positive injury news. LHP Cliff Lee could start throwing soon. Hes missed the last four starts because of an elbow strain. 3B Cody Asche (hamstring) should start a rehab assignment this weekend. An MRI showed that RHP Mike Adams doesnt have a torn labrum.
