NEW YORK (AP) — David Wright finally made it back into a major league game Friday night http://www.bluejaysfanproshop.com/authentic-j.a.-happ-jersey , grounding out in his first plate appearance for the New York Mets in nearly 2½ years.Sidelined by neck, back and shoulder injuries since May 27, 2016, Wright came up as a pinch-hitter against the Miami Marlins and received a warm ovation from the Citi Field crowd. With fans on their feet and his wife and two young daughters in the stands, the 35-year-old Wright led off the bottom of the fifth inning and swung at the first pitch he saw, a 96 mph fastball from Jose Urena.The seven-time All-Star hit a bouncer to the left of third baseman Brian Anderson, who made a nifty pickup of a short hop and threw across the diamond to retire Wright. The Mets’ captain returned to the dugout, where he high-fived and hugged teammates with a big smile on his face.Wright is scheduled to start at third base Saturday night against the last-place Marlins in his goodbye game before a sellout crowd. Unable to overcome all the injuries, he’s said he expects this weekend to mark his final appearance in the big leagues.Wright was on deck when the last out was made in the fourth Kendrys Morales Jersey , causing the crowd to boo loudly when the inning ended. He clutched his bat and paced the dugout for most of the next half-inning before bounding onto the field even before the Marlins took their positions with a 3-1 lead in the fifth.Once one of the top players in baseball, Wright was reinstated from the disabled list Tuesday but didn’t play in New York’s three-game series against NL East champion Atlanta this week. With the Braves trying to earn home-field advantage in the Division Series, the Mets did not want to compromise the integrity of the pennant race.Wright made his major league debut for the Mets in 2004, three years after they drafted him 38th overall. He is the longest-tenured active player to spend his entire career with one team. MIAMI (AP) — Wander Suero was trying to pick a runner off first base when he let another stroll into home.Suero balked in a run while the Washington Nationals blew a four-run lead, and the Miami Marlins rallied for an 8-5 victory Monday night.Washington led 4-0 after 4 1/2 innings but trailed by the end of the sixth. Suero let in the go-ahead run, balking with pinch-hitter Rafael Ortega batting and Austin Dean at third base to put Miami ahead 5-4. Suero was trying to pick Magneuris Sierra off first, and Nationals manager Dave Martinez was uncertain what he did wrong.“He (home plate umpire Pat Hoberg) said he saw something different,” Martinez said. “He’s been doing it all year. It’s the first it’s ever been called a balk.”Washington tied it in the seventh when Trea Turner beat out a potential double play, but Miami loaded the bases in the bottom of the inning and Lewis Brinson hit a tiebreaking single off Koda Glover (1-3).The Nationals (76-75) are in third place in the NL East Jesse Barfield Jersey , trailing the division-leading Braves (83-67) by 7 1/2 games and are 6 1/2 games out of the final wild-card spot.“We have to win every one,” Martinez said. “Let’s concentrate on tomorrow, but we have to win these games. We’re still in it and I know those guys are not going to quit. Forget about this one and come back tomorrow and win tomorrow.”Anthony Rendon had three hits, including a two-run home run, and Victor Robles hit his first career homer for the Nationals, who have 11 games remaining.“You obviously feel bad because you still have a chance to qualify for the playoffs,” Robles said.Starlin Castro had a homer and three RBIs for the last-place Marlins.Castro’s solo homer in the eighth pushed the lead to 8-5.Jarlin Garcia (3-2) recorded the final out of the seventh. Adam Conley pitched the ninth for his third save.“A lot of good things today,” Marlins manager Don Mattingly said.The Nationals led 4-0 behind an error by Marlins third baseman Brian Anderson, a solo shot by Robles and a two-run blast by Rendon.Castro’s two-run double in the fifth cut the deficit to 4-2 and ended Erick Fedde’s outing. Fedde allowed two hits and two runs over 4 1/3 innings.“He hits that double and it really gets us back in the game Brett Anderson Jersey ,” Mattingly said.Miami got four consecutive hits off Jimmy Cordero in the sixth, including a two-run single by Sierra, before Suero balked.“You try to do your job, make good pitches and locate, but things happen in games,” Cordero said. “You just have to keep attacking. You can’t let it affect you because you lose control.”Marlins starter Trevor Richards allowed four runs in five innings.TRAINER’S ROOMMarlins: RHP Jose Urena (hand) exited Sunday’s game at Philadelphia but is expected to be fine.
