ST. LOUIS -- Randal Grichuk and the St. Louis Cardinals love when Carlos Martinez pitches.Martinez allowed one run over eight innings and Grichuk, Matt Carpenter and Stephen Piscotty all homered off Mets starter Jacob deGrom, powering the Cardinals past New York 8-1 on Wednesday night.He can throw 99 with sink or 89 with even more sink, Grichuk said of Martinez. We feed off him. Its lot of fun playing behind him.The Cardinals, who won for the seventh time in nine games, posted a season high-tying 19 hits. They had eight players with two or more hits, including Martinez. Piscotty and Yadier Molina each had three hits.Its fun to watch them put up crooked numbers in any inning, even against a quality pitcher like deGrom, Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. When you throw up 19 hits and get (RBI) from six different guys, thats a great overall effort. We had a bunch of hits but not a lot of runs early, but Stephen helped with that home run.Martinez (12-7) gave up four hits and got his second straight victory.I love how starting pitching set the tone, Matheny said. It was almost a continuation of his last outing. Hes understanding its about location and movement. He can throw anything at any time.Martinez allowed one run on three hits in seven innings against Houston his last time out.These last two outings I feel have been one of my best, Martinez said through a translator. Ive been really listening to Yadi and his advice has been really great and I feel really good about myself right now.Roughed up for the second straight start, deGrom (7-7) allowed five runs on 12 hits in 4 2/3 innings. He was tagged for a career-worst eight runs and 13 hits in his previous outing against San Francisco.I feel fine, deGrom said. Its hard to get results when you throw everything right down the middle. Thats what it is. Im missing down the middle and these are big league hitters and thats what they do.Carpenter was back in the leadoff spot after several games hitting third. His 16th homer was his third leadoff homer of the season.Jay Bruce led off the Mets second with a double but had to leave because of a cramp in his right calf. Pinch-runner Alejandro De Aza scored on a double by Asdrubal Cabrera.Hes got a tight calf, Mets manager Terry Collins said of Bruce. His calf knotted up when he was actually jogging out to right field in the first inning. When he came in he told me right away, he said, Im gonna try to hit and see if it loosens up.When he went into second base I looked out and he didnt give me the OK, so I went out and checked and he said its really tight. I couldnt afford to have him blow it out so I took him out.Piscotty drove in the go-ahead run in the third with an infield single. Grichuk, who had doubled earlier, hit his 17th homer in the fourth. Piscotty connected for his 19th homer, a two-run drive, in the fifth.Greg Garcia and Molina later had RBI singles.ROSTER MOVEThe Mets made a roster move after the game, optioning right-hander Erik Goeddel to Triple-A Las Vegas and recalling left-hander Sean Gilmartin.NOTABLEMets reliever Robert Gsellman is the first pitcher in the modern era to earn a victory in his major league debut as a reliever since John Montefusco on Sept. 3, 1974 with the Giants.TRAINERS ROOMMets: Jon Niese (left knee) may undergo surgery after lasting just one-third of an inning on Tuesday.Cardinals: Lance Lynn, coming off reconstructive elbow surgery last November, made his third rehab start Wednesday at Double-A Springfield. Theres a chance the right-hander could help in the bullpen before the season ends.UP NEXTMets: Seth Lugo (0-2, 3.04) makes his second start in place of injury Steven Matz (left shoulder tightness), who could return late this month.Cardinals: Adam Wainwright (9-7, 4.71) allowed four home runs in 6 2/3 innings July 27 and got a no decision in his lone appearance against the Mets this season.Nike Air Max Flair Black .

PETERSBURG, Fla. Nike Air Max Tailwind 7 Mens . While hell be dialed in to that tournament on a course he loves, you can forgive him if his eyes glance down the calendar just a bit, towards April. Nike Sb Shoes Cheap . The team said Saturday that Lopez was hurt during its 121-120 overtime loss at Philadelphia on Friday. The Nets said they would issue another update next week after consultation with their doctors.Just when it appeared as if his quest for a third Summoners Cup Final was finished following two heavy losses to both Samsung Galaxy and then-winless Splyce, Royal Never Give Ups ace, Jian Uzi Zi-Hao, pulled through with one of his all-time great Worlds performances. RNG was able to upend North Americas champion Team SoloMid to send them out of the tournament in front of their home crowd in San Francisco.While a majority of the NA fans sat quietly watching their champions underwhelm, despite lofty expectations, a sizable group of passionate Chinese fans stayed following the final Nexus smash to cheer their team onto the next round.ESPN talked to Uzi following his advancement to the quarterfinals in Chicago next week.Im superhappy to make it out of the group stage, Uzi said. After our first two games today we were actually upset. We didnt even think that there was a chance for us to make it out of groups anymore, so right now Im superexcited.When Uzi joined the Royal organization in 2013, he was seen as a wild puppy that the rest of his team members helped raise throughout the game, so he could eventually be the late-game mechanical carry that helped them make it to the Summoners Cup Finals that year.Three years since those days at his first Worlds, Uzi feels like hes become a different person with experience.I think now I am much more mature. Ive been playing more team-based than just showing off my individual skills. And also, back then, the meta was for individuals to [hard carry] but now its a team-based game so I think Ive grown a lot, Uzi said.When Royal fell earlier in the day to Splyce and Samsung Galaxy, the team kept its spirits high by talking with one another and not letting any of the team give in. Uzi said that it was not a single player that rallied the team for the TSM match but the entire team lifted each other up to make the bracket stage.In just terms of potential, this years Royal is going to have the highest [Ive ever played on], Uzi said. Everyone on the team is supergreat at what they do [best]. Theyre all great mechanical players. However, because were all great mechanical players ourselves, sometimes we all feeel like we want to be the shining star of the team.ddddddddddddThat just means we need more time to cooperate with each other and having a working communication to reach even further than we have right now.I think the reason TSM lost against us is because they didnt pay too much attention to our bot-lane duo. For enemy teams, if they actually heavily focus on our bottom lane, itll give us a much harder chance to win. But [TSM] didnt do that, said Uzi.One player in the quarterfinals who has eye on Uzi is Europes H2k Gamings ace AD carry Konstantinos-Napoleon Forg1ven Tzortziou. Forg1ven told ESPN earlier in the tournament he was most impressed by Royals bottom lane, and he and Uzi shared a similar mentality for the game.Every game I play against RNG were both basically the same players, [Uzi and I]. Uzi will contend every single creep possible, and I will contend every single creep possible. So when we face against each other, I think we are both ready to commit our lives for every creep, said Forg1ven.Saturday night, Uzi responded by giving his thoughts on Forg1ven.So with H2k, weve actually played a lot of scrims against them, he said. At first, our bot lane always had an advantage, but as our scrims went on and the more games we played against H2k, I felt that Forg1ven is a player that has a very strong will and hes a really fast learner. He started learning how to play against us even when we picked [bottom lane] champions that are much stronger against their team comp. In the end, its starting to get much harder for us to get any advantage in the bot lane against them.I think Forg1ven is a superstrong player. He has a lot of great mechanical skills, and he is superfast learner, Uzi said.Finally, he wanted to address Forg1ven directly.If we do meet, I want to meet you at the final, Forg1ven, said Uzi. I do recognize you as a great opponent. [Also] youre a really friendly person. You added me in-game even though I dont speak English, and youll always say hi to me. But I do want to meet you in the finals. ' ' '
