MIAMI -- John Buck was one of three Mets who failed to come through with a runner on third base in the eighth -- an inning punctuated by Marlins reliever Chad Qualls tumble that had his teammates laughing. Buck didnt miss on his next chance, and no one was smiling in the Miami dugout. The Mets catcher hit a tiebreaking two-run single with the bases loaded in the 10th inning, lifting New York to a 4-2 victory Tuesday night. "When I came up I kind of had a similar situation with (Steve) Cishek, who is more funky, I said all right, just stick with that approach," Buck said. "He left it over the plate and I got the results I wanted this time." The Mets threatened in the eighth when Marlon Byrd led off with a triple but Qualls struck out Ike Davis, got Buck to ground out and, two batters later, struck out Omar Quintanilla to end the inning. Leaving the mound after the strike-three call against Quintanilla, Qualls punched the air in celebration as he headed toward the Marlins dugout. But as he threw the punch, he snagged his right cleat in the infield grass, his own forward momentum sending him tumbling to the ground. Qualls appeared uninjured. He bounced up quickly and continued to the dugout, where he covered his face in a towel and laughed with teammates. "As soon as I saw the fist pump I put my head down," Marlins manager Mike Redmond said. "Thats one of those if you win that game, you can watch it. But since we lost its not quite as funny." Zack Wheeler took a no-hitter into the seventh inning and Juan Lagares had three hits and two RBIs for the Mets. Donovan Solano and Jake Marisnick had consecutive RBI singles after Ed Lucas got Miamis first hit with one out in the seventh to tie it 2-all. "I did get a little rushed after that," Wheeler said. "I probably let down my guard just a little bit, but its a learning experience." Wheeler allowed two runs and three hits in seven innings. He struck out five and walked three while throwing 64 of his 87 pitches for strikes. "That might have been as dominant of a performance through six innings that Ive seen all year from anybody," Mets manager Terry Collins said. Scott Atchison (1-0) pitched a scoreless ninth to earn the victory and Bobby Parnell pitched the 10th for his 22nd save in 26 opportunities. Cishek (3-6) allowed two runs and three hits in two innings. Cishek retired the Mets in order in the ninth before allowing back-to-back singles by David Wright and Marlon Byrd to begin the 10th. Cishek then walked Davis to load the bases for Buck, who drove in Wright and Byrd with a base hit up the middle for a 4-2 lead. Parnell walked one in the ninth before earning his second save in two days. Wheeler, a 23-year old rookie making his eighth major league start, retired the first 11 batters he faced before walking Giancarlo Stanton in the fourth. "I felt smooth throughout my mechanics, my rhythm was good, good tempo in between pitches, everything was just clicking well and I was hitting my spots," Wheeler said. "I did get away with a few mistakes tonight, but it happens. Sometimes you get away with them and sometimes you dont. Tonight was just one of those nights." After a walk to Logan Morrison, Lucas broke up Wheelers no-hit bid with a hard-hit one-out single to right in the seventh. Solano and Marisnick each singled in a run to tie it 2-2. "I was just trying to put a good swing on a fastball," Lucas said. "He was pretty overpowering up to that point. I wasnt trying to do too much. I wasnt trying to hit a home run or anything. I was just trying to get on base." Wheeler got Jeff Mathis to bounce into a double play to get out of the jam ending his night. Wright led off the fourth with a double and Buck walked with two outs before Lagares tripled to right-centre field to give the Mets a 2-0 lead. Marlins starter Nathan Eovaldi allowed two runs, four hits, and five walks in six innings. He struck out four. "It was rough tonight," Eovaldi said. "I have to work ahead. My fastball command wasnt there. I was off the plate, just a rough one." NOTES: Lagares is hitting .369 (24 of 65) with 13 RBIs in 21 games in July. ...

Lionel Hitchman Jersey .Y. -- Marcell Dareus and the Buffalo Bills defence made life miserable for Super Bowl MVP Joe Flacco. FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- As excited as Buffalo Bills coach Rex Ryan was about his teams 16-0 win over the Patriots earlier this month -- his first in Foxborough in eight tries -- he was quick to acknowledge it came with an asterisk.Its satisfying. But lets face it: They had a player out, Ryan said at the time.That player, Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, is back for Round 2 as New England (6-1) looks to get even for the lone blemish on its record this season.The Patriots enter the week playing well three weeks after coach Bill Belichick described a performance against the Bills in which he said the team failed in all three phases of the game.The offense is thriving with Brady back, outscoring opponents 95-46 over the past three games. New England is also the only team in the NFL not to throw an interception this season and has a league-best 115.9 passer rating.The defense is healthy as its been in weeks as well. In addition, it will have defensive end Rob Ninkovich on the field after he missed the first meeting with Buffalo while serving a four-game suspension for violating the NFL policy on performance-enhancing substances.Ninkovichs presence should be helpful as the Patriots look to contain Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor better than they did at home.Taylor made plays with both his arm and feet in the first win, finishing with 246 yards passing and a touchdown.Reducing his effectiveness is a priority.Hes very explosive, Ninkovich said. He can still get a ball 60 yards down the field as hes running out of the pocket, so you really have to do a good job keeping him in the pocket.Probably the only neegative development since Bradys return has been on special teams with Stephen Gostkowski.ddddddddddddThe Patriots kicker, who entered the season having not missed an extra point since his rookie year in 2006, has missed two in the past two games. Hes also just 9 for 12 (75 percent) on field goals, which is below the career-low 77 percent he kicked in both 2010 and 2006.Though Gostkowski was especially hard on himself after his performance against the Steelers, Belichick lauded the work his kicker puts in weekly, adding well work through it.He also dismissed the idea that Goskowskis recent woes could be related to the different types of techniques hes being asked to employ on kickoffs this year. Belichick likened it to the multiple kinds of shots a golfer has to have in their repertoire.Youve got to be able to hit a sand wedge, youve got to be able to hit a 5-iron, youve got to be able to drive, youve got to be able to putt, Belichick said. Thats what kickers and punters do.Special teams captain Matt Slater said Gostkowski has nothing but support among his teammates.Were just gonna be as positive as we can be with Stephen, Slater said. You dont want to say too much, but you also want to let him know that we continue to have faith in him. We continue to believe in his ability to perform, and that we wouldnt trade him for anyone.---AP NFL websites: http://pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Kyle Hightower on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/khightower Cheap Jerseys Wholesale China NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping Wholesale Jerseys 2020 Wholesale Authentic Jerseys Cheap Jerseys China Wholesale Authentic Jerseys ' ' '
