ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- The Denver Broncos promoted running back Juwan Thompson from their practice squad on Saturday to take the roster spot of C.J. Anderson, who was placed on injured reserve.Anderson underwent surgery Thursday to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee and is hoping to return for the playoffs.Rookie Devontae Booker will make his first start Sunday when the Broncos (5-2) host the San Diego Chargers (3-4), who beat them 21-13 less than three weeks ago. Kapri Bibbs will back him up.The Broncos ran for 190 yards against the Texans on Monday night and were feeling good about their suddenly surging ground game until Tuesday afternoon when Anderson showed up with a sore right knee.Booker and Bibbs insist they can maintain their 1-2 punch in the backfield without Anderson, who ran for a season-best 107 yards in Denvers 27-9 win over Houston.In Thompson, the Broncos have added an experienced and versatile back.Thompson made the roster each of the last two seasons and has played in 30 career games, mainly on special teams. He was the odd man out when rookie fullback Andy Janovich made the team this summer, and he signed on to Denvers practice squad awaiting just this opportunity.The thing about Juwan is he kind of plays two spots, coach Gary Kubiak said. Through his history hes played some halfback and hes played well. Weve been having him work at fullback, so obviously hes been working really, really hard here.Anderson, who got a four-year, $18 million contract after rushing for 90 yards and a touchdown in Super Bowl 50, leads the Broncos with 437 yards and four touchdowns.

NEW YORK -- Raul Ibanez was more than happy to turn those welcome back calls of "Ra-uuul!" into a good old Bronx cheer. Ibanez again treated Yankee Stadium as his personal playground, hitting a grand slam and two-run homer Wednesday night to help the Seattle Mariners rout New York 12-2. "I cant tell that much of a difference even though when you hear it, depending on how youre doing, you know," Ibanez said with a sly smile. Ibanezs slam came during a seven-run first inning. Yankees backup shortstop Alberto Gonzalez got the final out in the ninth inning in his first professional pitching appearance. Every Seattle starter had at least one of its season-high 16 hits and Jesus Montero was the only starter who failed to score a run in the Mariners best output this year. The Mariners chased Phil Hughes after he got only two outs in the first. Trying to preserve his bullpen, Yankees manager Joe Girardi had Brett Marshall throw 108 pitches in his big league debut, then brought in Gonzalez. "We need one out," Girardi said. "Its not something I want to do, but for me to bring in another pitcher. I think it doesnt make a lot of sense there." Ibanez has connected three times in the first two games of his return to the ballpark in which -- last season at 40 years old -- he electrified crowds in late September and October with several key homers in the Yankees run to the AL championship series. This time, the cheers were replaced by boos for Hughes (2-3) when Ibanez connected for his 11th career slam. Ibanez homered again in the fifth inning off Marshall. "I said silliness happens here. Theres also something that happens here with Raul," teammate Brendan Ryan said. "Its awesome." Ibanez thinks its a coincidence that he had another special performance here. He says its not Yankee Stadium; his swing has been improving the past week or so. Ibanez raised his average that was .158 at the end of April to .224 after his 2 for 5 night. Kendrys Morales, Michael Morse and Michael Saunders each drove in a run in the highest-scoring first inning at the stadium that opened in 2009. Kyle Seager added a three-run shot off Marshall in the sixth. "He saved the bullpen is what he did for us," Girardi said of Marshalls 5 2-3 innings. "Thats not easy being a rookie, first time out there, and being asked to do that." The first inning outburst made it easy for Japanese right-hander Hisashi Iwakuma (5-1), who came in with a 11.dddddddddddd74 ERA. He gave up solo homers to Vernon Wells -- his 10th -- and Chris Stewart. Delivering dastardly breaking pitches with a motion that has a lengthy pause when he reaches the top of his high leg kick, Iwakuma kept the Yankees off-balance. He gave up a season-high eight hits and two runs without walking a batter for the second straight start. Iwakuma struck out four. "Those were big gifts," Iwakuma said through a translator of the run support. After getting Saunders to lead off the game with a fly to left field on the second pitch of the game, nothing was easy for Hughes in the shortest start of his career. Dustin Ackley walked and Seager singled before Morales had an RBI single. Morse followed with another RBI hit before Hughes walked Justin Smoak to load the bases ahead of Ibanez. Former Yankees prospect Montero singled and, after a forceout, Saunders, the 10th batter of the inning, doubled in a run to make it 7-0 and chase Hughes. The right-hander never failed to make it out of the first in his 110 previous starts. "When I tried to go to changeup, slider, curveball, it seemed like nothing was there," Hughes said. "Nothing I could really go to to try and find a way out of it, and thats what happens." Ibanez hit an opposite-field drive to left field in the fifth and Seagers long ball came in the sixth to make it 12-2. The Yankees bullpen remained empty, leaving it up to Marshall to pitch deep into the game. With a chance for his first career three-homer game, Ibanez popped out foul in the sixth to David Adams, another Yankees player making his big league debut -- on his 26th birthday. Ibanez flied out in the eighth. He has 17 career mulithomer games. His previous came in the Bronx against Oakland on Sept. 22 for the Yankees against Oakland. Gonzalez, acquired last week from the Chicago Cubs, moved from shortstop to the mound with two outs in the ninth and runners on first and third. He retired Robert Andino on a routine flyball. NOTES: Adams got his first career hit in the sixth. ... Mariners manager Eric Wedge said LHP Felix Hernandez was "pretty sore this morning" but the ace should be fine after tweaking his back Tuesday night. Wedge said he doesnt think there will be any alteration of his routine between starts. ... Seattle OF Franklin Gutierrez (strained right hamstring) ran Tuesday and could begin a rehab assignment Thursday or Friday. ... The Yankees designated 3B Chris Nelson for assignment. ' ' '
