NEW YORK -- Curtis Granderson hit his first leadoff homer in five years, Carlos Torres and two other relievers filled in admirably for an ailing Daisuke Matsuzaka and the New York Mets beat the San Diego Padres 3-1 Sunday. Wholesale NHL Jerseys Online . Bobby Abreu added an RBI double in the first and Daniel Murphy had a sacrifice fly in the second against a shaky Ian Kennedy (5-8), helping New York take the rubber game in a series between the two worst hitting teams in the majors. On a day Mets manager Terry Collins said he needed seven innings from Matsuzaka to help cover for a depleted bullpen, the right-hander barely made it through an inning because of a severe upset stomach. Making his fourth start of the season, Matsuzaka was visited on the mound by Collins, a trainer and a translator after a two-out walk to Seth Smith. The 34-year-old Japanese pitcher took several deep breaths before remaining in the game. He got the next batter, Chase Headley, on a groundout to end the inning. Matsuzaka gingerly walked off the mound after one inning, shook hands with Collins and headed straight for the clubhouse. Torres (3-4) relieved Matsuzaka to start the second, and the late-inning reliever looked unsettled. He gave up three straight singles, including Rene Riveras RBI infield hit. But he didnt give up another hit in four innings, tossing a season-high 63 pitches. Vic Black pitched two scoreless innings and Jenrry Mejia made his first appearance since leaving Thursday nights game with a stiff back, working two hitless innings for his seventh save. While the Mets used five extra-base hits -- two doubles by Lucas Duda -- in improving to 5-9 for June, San Diego fell to 3-10 for the month. Batting .216 as a team coming in, the Padres made several mental mistakes on the basepaths. Manager Bud Black had several words for pinch-hitter Alexi Amarista when he returned to the dugout in the seventh inning after failing to run out a grounder that Mets shortstop Wilmer Flores bobbled. Atop the order for the first time this season, Granderson sent a 1-0 pitch from Kennedy halfway up the porch in right field for his first leadoff homer since 2009 with Detroit and 25th overall. Murphy then doubled to left field, David Wright walked and Abreu doubled in a run. But the Mets failed to add on against a shaky Kennedy, stranding runners on second and third. Wright had an opportunity to give the Mets some cushion in the sixth, but he popped out to right field with the bases loaded. The Mets are now 11 for 68 (.162) with the bases jammed. NOTES: Kennedy gave up seven hits and three runs in 5 1-3 innings. ... The Padres placed RHP Nick Vincent on the 15-day DL, retroactive to June 12, because of right shoulder fatigue. They selected the contract of RHP Blaine Boyer from Triple-A El Paso to fill Vincents spot. ... Mets minor league RHP Rafael Montero left his start for Triple-A Las Vegas on Saturday night in the first inning because of a left oblique strain. The Mets completed the trade that sent Ike Davis to Pittsburgh on April 18. They received 19-year-old LHP Blake Taylor, the Pirates second-round selection (51st overall) in 2013. ... The Mets next face the Cardinals in St. Louis and San Diego heads to Seattle for Monday games. Authentic NHL Jerseys Cheap .

LOUIS - In the lead-up to their rematch against the San Francisco 49ers, the St. Louis Rams were scrambling to find enough healthy players.Disorganized? Well, not quite.A disruptive defence theyd been waiting for all season led the way in an unexpected 13-10 victory at San Francisco on Sunday.The Rams (3-5) had eight sacks, plus came up with the big goal-line stand at the finish that made up for an offence that mustered just 193 yards.Rookie Aaron Donald and fellow tackle Kendall Langford led the push that led to Colin Kaepernicks lost fumble on a quarterback sneak at the goal line in the final seconds.Its great to find a way to win, but its also great to know we didnt play our perfect game, guard Rodger Saffold said. Our defence played a hell of a game. At the end, we found a way to win. That was awesome.The bottom line is theyve got momentum for Sundays game at NFC West-leading Arizona, and coach Jeff Fisher is optimistic cornerback Janoris Jenkins will be back after missing two games with a knee injury.Robert Quinn had two sacks for St. Louis, which totalled six sacks in the first seven games. The pressure led to the 49ers converting just three of 12 on third down.We were just getting after it, Donald said. We were rushing the passer like we know how.Expectations were low given Fisher and general manager Les Snead made 18 personnel moves over a 48-hour period in the middle of the week.It was a bounce-back effort all week long, Fisher said. Things didnt look good early in the week. We got em back.Earlier in the season, the 49ers erased an early two-touchdown deficit and won by two touchdowns in St. Louis. The Rams had 13 players on the injury list all week, many of them starters.Well, Wednesday we couldnt even practice. We had to kind oof have a walkthrough day and try to get guys healthy, quarterback Austin Davis said. NHL Jerseys From China. t wasnt a pretty win, but its a great win.The Rams shut out the 49ers in the second half, reversing a troubling trend. They were blanked 24-0 after the break last week at Kansas City and have been particularly weak in the third quarter, getting outscored 69-13.Though St. Louis made little happen offensively, the 49ers were stopped, too.Before gaining 59 yards on the final drive, San Francisco had mustered four first downs in four second-half possessions.Im sure that every D-lineman expects to get multiple sacks game in and game out, Quinn said. But of course, they dont come that easy.Guys were working their butts off and sold out for the team.Until the finish when he was whistled for penalties on consecutive snaps near the goal, Trumaine Johnson had a strong season debut coming off a preseason knee injury. Johnsons return helped compensate for Jenkins absence, and for Marcus Robersons struggles.Running back Zac Stacy again was the odd man out in a crowded backfield, and was the lone St. Louis player who didnt play. Stacy just missed 1,000 yards rushing his rookie season, but has fallen behind rookie Tre Mason and Benny Cunningham.Zac has handled this professionally, Fisher said. He will get to play, he will get his reps. Its hard to spread the ball around.Mason, a third-round pick, made his first career start and had 19 of the 27 carries, totalling 65 yards with a 3.4-yard average.Fisher didnt exactly anoint Mason as the starter this week at NFC West-leading Arizona.You guys come out to Arizona, watch the first play and figure out whos going to start, the coach said.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL ' ' '
