(Sports Network) - The New York Mets exploded offensively on Tuesday to move above .500 for the first time since the first week of the season. Tonight, they shoot for a series win when they play the middle test of their three-game interleague set against the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park. Jason Bay and Carlos Beltran each cleared the bases in the fourth and fifth inning, respectively, to break a 299-game drought without a grand slam, as the Mets rolled to a commanding 14-3 win. The large offensive output saw a season-high in hits (18) that included Jose Reyes 4-for-4 showing at the plate. The victory also put the Mets over the .500 mark (40-39) since the team was 3-2. Were not one of those bopping teams, Bay admitted. Were more of a string two or three hits together instead of a bloop and a blast. It was nice to show that we can still hit the ball out of the ballpark. The offense overshadowed a solid start by R.A. Dickey (4-7), who allowed three runs on 10 hits and struck out six over seven innings. It sure feels like the beginning of the season, if we were at all, Dickey said about his team having a winning record. Hopefully this is going to be that resistance point that when we break through we can really continue to go. Austin Jackson had a two-run homer and Andy Dirks added a solo shot for Detroit, which had a three-game winning streak stopped. Tigers starter Rick Porcello (6-6) continued his recent struggles, yielding seven runs on 11 hits in just 3 2/3 innings. Over his last three starts, he has given up 21 runs in 11 1/3 frames. Heading to the hill for the Mets tonight will be lefty Chris Capuano, who has won three of his last four starts. Capuano beat the Oakland Athletics on Thursday, scattering five hits over six scoreless innings before leaving with cramps in his right side. He also struck out seven without walking a batter and improved to 6-7 on the year to go along with a 3.99 ERA. I had decent separation between my changeup and fastball today, which I was able to get some strikeouts in early, Capuano said. They adjusted to it later in the game, but early I was able to get some swings. Capuano beat the Tigers the only other time he faced them, yielding three runs and seven hits in seven innings. Detroit, meanwhile, will counter with lefty Phil Coke, who is just 1-7 with a 4.32 ERA. Coke did not get a decision on Friday against Arizona, but was not good, as he allowed six runs (five earned) in 4 2/3 innings of his teams 7-6 loss. Coke has never started a game against the Mets, but has faced them four times out of the bullpen and has yet to surrender a run. The Mets won two of three at home versus the Tigers last year, but dropped two of three in their last trip to Detroit in 2007. Greg Jennings Dolphins Jersey .

Former Villa player Ashley Young again came under scrutiny after appearing to exaggerate some contact with defender Ciaran Clark to earn a seventh-minute penalty, which was converted by Rooney. "I think he played for the penalty," United manager Alex Ferguson said. "I think it was a dramatic fall. He overdid the fall but it was a penalty, theres no doubt about that." Young had won a penalty in Uniteds previous match at Old Trafford after also appearing to fall easily in the box for the opening goal in the 2-0 win against Queens Park Rangers. "I dont think it was a penalty," Villa manager Alex McLeish said. "I thought Ashley threw his leg into Ciaran Clarks leg. Ciaran was static. He planted his feet firmly in the ground and then he tried to pull his leg away. "I certainly felt it was a soft decision. Ashley got away with that one today." Danny Welbeck hit Uniteds second in the 43rd, before Rooney scored again in the 74th and substitute Nani added a fourth in stoppage time as United bounced back from the surprise 1-0 loss at Wigan on Wednesday. With four rounds left, the win left United in prime position to secure a 20th league title. "The name of the game now is for us to enjoy ourselves and play with the expression we did today," said Ferguson. "You can never be too confident, my experience tells me that theres always something thats going to bite you in the bum. But hopefully well avoid that." Villa is still not clear of relegation problems and almost shoccked United in the opening minute when Andreas Weimann raced on to a through pass but his bobbling shot was easily saved by goalkeeper David De Gea.dddddddddddd United hit back when Young won the penalty after gliding past Alan Huttons challenge on the left, cutting into the box and then appearing to fall over Clarks attempted tackle. Despite replays suggesting the England forward had exaggerated the contact, referee Mark Halsey pointed to the spot and Rooney sent goalkeeper Shay Given the wrong way with the penalty. United hogged possession for the rest of the half, with Rooney forcing Given into a save in the 18th and glancing a header just over in the 23rd. Clark headed narrowly wide from Barry Bannans 21st-minute free kick, but Villa struggled to string passes together. Welbeck, recalled in attack ahead of Javier Hernandez, had two early efforts blocked before going close again with a point-blank effort from Antonio Valencias low cross that Given tipped over in the 33rd. Welbeck increased the lead with a sliding finish at the back post after the Villa defence had failed to deal with Patrice Evras low cross. With a comfortable advantage, United dropped the tempo in the second half and Villa substitute Emile Heskey forced De Gea to tip a header over in the 66th. Rooney dragged his shot wide from Valencias cutback two minutes later, but eventually scored his second from an almost identical position soon after for his 24th league goal of the season. "The third goal just killed the game and we were able to see it out quite comfortably," Ferguson said. Nani finished off Villa with a cool finish under Given at the back post from Jonny Evans pass just before the final whistle to underline Uniteds dominance. cheap jerseys wholesale jerseys wholesale jerseys cheap nfl jerseys wholesale jerseys Mamado...
