BERLIN -- Former German football federation president Theo Zwanziger claimed on Wednesday that awarding the 2022 World Cup to Qatar was a "blatant mistake" and that even moving it to avoid searing summer temperatures wouldnt be ideal. Zwanziger told SportBild on Wednesday that a suggestion by FIFA President Sepp Blatter to play the tournament in winter would seriously affect the European leagues and threaten the "unity of German football." He added that German fans would end up watching the World Cup at "public viewing events on ice-skates in minus temperatures." Blatter plans to ask FIFAs executive committee, of which Zwanziger is a member since June, 2011, to consider the switch - going back on his previous position of insisting on a summer tournament. Qatar regularly has temperatures exceeding 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit) during summer. "If this World Cup is to become a party for the people, you cant play football in the summer," Blatter said. "You can cool down the stadiums but you cant cool down the whole country." Zwanziger said Blatters U-turn showed that most of the executive committee had voted "against a fair awarding procedure" in giving the World Cup to Qatar in 2010. The 68-year-old former tax inspector said that rather than rescheduling the tournament, it should be awarded to another country. "If the decision at the time was really wrong you have to cancel it and avoid burdens on those previously uninvolved," Zwanziger said. Cheap Tom Glavine Jersey . JOHNS, N.

CLEVELAND -- Munenori Kawasaki delivered the hit that Toronto had been waiting for. His two-run single with the bases loaded in the ninth inning sparked a three-run rally and the Blue Jays hung on for a 5-4 win Wednesday night. Kawasaki, who broke an 0-for-18 slump, lined a 1-2 pitch from Joe Smith into left-centre field to score two runs and break a 3-all tie. A third run scored when centre fielder Michael Bourn booted the ball for an error. The Blue Jays nearly gave it away in the bottom of the inning. Closer Casey Janssen, who had converted 17 of 18 save chances, gave up Asdrubal Cabreras RBI single that cut the lead to two. Kawasakis throwing error made it a one-run game but Steve Delabar retired Michael Brantley on a fly ball for his first career save. "Great ballgame, it really was," said Toronto manager John Gibbons. "The guys battle, like they always do." Colby Rasmus drew a one-out walk off Rich Hill (0-1). After Maicer Izturis flied out, J.P. Arencibia was announced to bat for Josh Thole.

"Smitty had faced Arencibia four times and struck him out four times," Cleveland manager Terry Francona said. "Thats the matchup we wanted. With Kawasaki, he just left the ball over the plate and Bourny mishandled it for the unearned run."
