WASHINGTON -- On a bright, sunny afternoon, R. Wholesale NFL Jerseys .A. Dickey had the Washington hitters swinging at shadows. The knuckleballer baffled the Nationals, limiting them to four singles over 7 1-3 scoreless innings and leading the New York Mets to a 3-1 win Thursday. Dickey (9-1) extended the longest shutout string of his career to 24 2-3 innings -- a span that began against Pittsburgh and continued against San Diego, St. Louis and the Nats. "Literally, when I go out there, the only streak I care about is getting that hitter out," he said. "It doesnt change the mentality because theres a run of scoreless innings." Dickey became the first pitcher in the majors to reach nine wins this season, backed by Lucas Dudas fifth homer in eight games. Dickey also exceeded his victory total from last year, when he often was the victim of poor run support. "Im getting more swings and misses. Other than that, Im not doing anything differently," Dickey said. "Im trying to induce them into hitting pieces of the ball, not getting solid contact," he said. Nationals teen Bryce Harper fanned twice. He awkwardly chased strike three in the first inning, then casually flipped his bat. No luck today, rookie. "He throws it hard, throws it soft. Sometimes, it starts at your face and goes down through the strike zone. Hes a pretty unbelievable pitcher. It was pretty fun to face him, but going 0 for 4 is not fun," he said. "Youre just trying to look for something up in the zone or just trying to swing as hard as you can or something. I dont even know. This is my first time really facing a knuckeball guy like that," he said. Duda hit his 10th homer, a two-run shot in the fifth against Chien-Ming Wang (1-2). Daniel Murphy, who earlier bounced into an inning-ending double play that left him in a 0-for-19 rut, later added an RBI single. The way Dickey has been pitching lately, those three runs were more than enough. He struck out eight and walked two, and most of the outs were soft ones. When Adam LaRoche worked out an 11-pitch walk, it was a major accomplishment. Mets manager Terry Collins said nice weather has been a factor in Dickeys good fortune, allowing him a better grip and therefore better command. "When you get in that batters box, you better be ready to hit something thats fluttering," he said. Dickey credited a harder knuckleball -- thrown in the low 80s mph, up from the mid-70s -- with giving him a later, better break on the pitch. "I feel comfortable with where I am with the pitch," he said. "And look: Its a knuckleball. It can be fickle." Washington never got a runner past second base when Dickey was on the mound. He worked out of a two-on, no-out jam in the seventh and left after Jhonatan Solanos one-out single in the eighth. Reliever Bobby Parnell walked Rick Ankiel and after the runners moved up on a grounder, Harper grounded out to end the threat. Frank Francisco gave up Ryan Zimmermans leadoff home run in the ninth before closing for his 15th save in 18 chances. The win stopped the Mets three-game losing streak heading into the Subway Series that begins Friday night at Yankee Stadium. The Mets had lost the first two at Nationals Park in the series. Wang allowed eight hits in 5 1-3 innings in his second start of the season. The Mets won for just the second time in 10 meetings with Washington since last September. There wasnt a whole lot for Nationals fans to cheer about on a bright afternoon until Zimmermans third homer. Midway through the game, however, there was a ripple of applause throughout the crowd of 32,096 when clouds briefly blocked the glare. NOTES: Dickeys previous best scoreless streak was 18 innings in 2010. ... Harper had the wind knocked out of him diving for David Wrights triple in the ninth. He is also nursing a tender back and has been getting treatment, manager Davey Johnson said. "Well have to monitor him pretty close," Johnson said. Said Harper: "Im good. Im totally fine to play. I wont be out of the lineup." ... Mets LF Jason Bay was a late scratch because of flulike symptoms. He has been out since April 23 because of a broken rib, and was activated from the disabled list this week. ... Mets LHP Johan Santana will start Friday night at Yankee Stadium in his first outing since throwing a no-hitter. Collins said Santana, who threw a career-high 134 pitches in that gem last Friday, wont be on a pitch count. ... Nationals RHP Stephen Strasburg is set to start Friday night at Fenway Park. Manager Davey Johnson said he doesnt expect to use an infield shift against Boston lefty slugger David Ortiz, not with the heat Strasburg brings. ... Mets RHP Jon Rauch will be examined Friday.

ST. NFL Jerseys Wholesale . LOUIS -- St. Louis Cardinals rookie Joe Kelly had been right at home pitching at Busch Stadium -- until Wednesday night. Kelly entered the game against the San Francisco Giants with a 2.73 ERA in six starts at Busch. He allowed nine hits and seven runs in five innings in a 15-0 loss to the Giants, though only four of the runs were earned. "I felt good out there," Kelly said. "I felt like I was making good pitches and commanding both sides of the plate with my fastball." It did appear that Kelly (2-5) had his A game, as he struck out the first two batters he faced. But Melky Cabrera and Buster Posey extended the inning with singles and Hunter Pence had an RBI single to make it 1-0 "I felt like I was making good pitches down in the zone," Kelly said. "They just had their way." Kelly hurt himself in the third inning when after allowing a leadoff single to Angel Pagan and then threw the ball down the right-field line on a pickoff attempt. Pagan scored on a single by Marco Scutaro, who would go on to drive in seven runs. "Weve got to have a short memory on this one and look forward to getting out here tomorrow and changing what we looked like tonight," St. Louis manager Mike Matheny said. Ryan Vogelsong (10-5) gave up three hits in seven innings. He has gone at least six innings in all 21 of his starts, the longest such streak for a Giant since Bill Swift did it 24 straight times in 1993. "Im just going out there and trying to get outs and trying to get as deep as I can into a game," Vogelsong said. Pence had two hits and scored twice. He began the day batting .143 (4-for-28) in seven games for the Giants since being traded from Philadelphia. Cabrera had two hits and scored two runs. He leads the majors with 154 hits. In the sixth, Cabrera led off with a double against Kelly and after a walk to Posey, Pence hit an RBI single. Brandon Belts single loaded the bases and an error by second baseman Tyler Greene on Ryan Theriots ground ball led to two more runs and Kellys departure. "I wasnt tired," Kelly said. "I felt the same the whole way until I got taken out of the game." Brandon Crawford later had an RBI single and Pagans sacrifice fly made it 7-0. Jon Jay had two singles for the Cardinals in his third straight multihit game. He is 11-for-22 in his last six games.

Cano homered and drove in three runs to extend his recent tear, Kuroda took a shutout into the eighth inning and New York beat the Cleveland Indians 7-1 on Monday night. Nick Swisher and Dewayne Wise also went deep for the homer-happy Yankees, who opened a seven-game homestand against the top two teams in the AL Central with their third consecutive victory and 13th in 16 games. After winning an intense Subway Series across town against the Mets over the weekend, New York roughed up Josh Tomlin (3-5) early and breezed the rest of the way. "Everythings just real chill right now," Swisher said. "Everythings just real mellow. Were having a good time." Cano hit a tiebreaking homer in the eighth inning Sunday night at Citi Field and picked up right where he left off in this one. He smacked a two-run double in the first inning and a solo homer in the third to the short porch in right. "It feels good. Everything is connecting," said Cano, who raised his batting average with runners in scoring position to .164. After slumping early this season, Cano has hit six of his 17 homers in the last eight games while increasing his overall average to .302. Earlier in the day, the three-time All-Star moved ahead of Texas second baseman Ian Kinsler in fan balloting for the American League squad. "You can hold him down for a while, but hes going to get hot," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. It was a painful night for catcher Carlos Santana and the Indians, who dropped their third in a row following a four-game winning streak. Despite wearing a protective guard, he drilled two foul balls off his right foot during a three-pitch span in the fourth, leaving him on the ground in anguish. Later, he took a foul ball off his glove hand. "It was a bad day, but Ill be all right," Santana said. The scuffling Indians were held to one run for the third straight game, getting outscored 22-3 during that span, after managing a 2-0 victory Friday in Houston. "Josh didnt have it and Kuroda did," Cleveland manager Manny Acta said. "From the get-go, you could tell Josh didnt have command of his pitches. ... Everything was up and this is the wrong place to pitch behind in the count, up in the zone. Wrong place, wrong team." Wise added an RBI triple in a rare start and Cano made one of several fine defensive plays to back Kuroda (7-7), who improved to 4-1 with a 1.93 ERA in his last six starts. The 37-year-old right-hander was rarely in troubble besides the fourth, when he walked the first two batters and still escaped unscathed. Wholesale Jerseys. He easily handled a lineup loaded with nine left-handed bats, giving up five hits while walking two and striking out seven. Kuroda was lifted after allowing a single and double to start the eighth, walking off to a warm ovation from the crowd of 42,290. "Its a great feeling and Im glad I was able to pitch as I did," Kuroda said through a translator. "The fans expect that." Jason Kipnis hit a sacrifice fly off Clay Rapada. The effervescent Swisher jogged off the field with a big smile after all five balls in the inning were hit to him in right field, sending him sprinting to both his right and left as the roar from the crowd increased with each play. "You can always debate whether winning causes fun or fun causes winning," Swisher said. "I feel like we have both of that right now, and when we come to the ballpark we feel were going to be successful every single day. And its just a great feeling to have right now." Swisher followed Canos homer with one of his own, an opposite-field drive that tucked into the left-field corner. Swisher also connected Sunday night, a three-run shot off a knuckleball from previously untouchable R.A. Dickey. Wise, making his eighth start of the year, hit a long two-run shot in the second for his first homer with the Yankees. He played centre field, where Curtis Granderson had started the first 71 games this season. Granderson was the designated hitter, and third baseman Alex Rodriguez was given the night off. "I was just happy to walk in today and see my name in the starting lineup. To be honest, I think the team was more happy than I was," Wise said. "I know my role. These guys in front of me have to play every day. I just need to stay ready." NOTES: The Bleacher Creatures chanted ex-Yankee Johnny Damons name when he took his position in left field for Cleveland.
