NEW YORK -- Chicago Cubs manager Joe Maddon thought his team played a pretty good ballgame. Domingo Santana Jersey . Starter John Lackey was not as forgiving.Getting beats one thing. When you feel like you kind of gave one away, let one go, thats a different kind of loss, Lackey said.Yoenis Cespedes socked a colossal home run , Jeurys Familia pitched out of a huge jam in the ninth inning and rookie replacement Brandon Nimmo keyed a three-run rally in the seventh that sent the New York Mets past the Cubs 4-3 on Thursday night in their first meeting since last years NL Championship Series.Chicago put runners on second and third with no outs against Familia, who got two strikeouts and a bases-loaded popup for his 27th save -- most in the majors. He screamed and pumped his arms repeatedly after Javier Baez popped up to end it.I think our last three at-bats were a little bit too anxious, said Kris Bryant, who fanned for the first out in the ninth. But hes supposed to do that. Thats why hes the closer on their team.Baezs throwing error at second base allowed Nimmo to score the go-ahead run, and the Mets overcame a 3-0 deficit to stop their four-game slide.New York, which swept Chicago last October to reach the World Series, had lost nine straight regular-season games to the Cubs dating to August 2014.We made one mistake on defense, but otherwise it was a pretty good game of baseball, Maddon said.Bryant hit a two-run homer for the major league-best Cubs. Baez added a solo shot off rookie Steven Matz before a scuffling Mets lineup finally pushed back in the opener of a four-game series between banged-up teams.Cespedes launched a solo drive in the sixth that soared into the third deck in left field, two or three rows deep.Travis dArnaud singled with one out in the seventh, chasing Lackey. Joel Peralta (0-1) walked slumping pinch-hitter Alejandro De Aza before Nimmo, starting for injured outfielder Curtis Granderson, singled on the ninth pitch of a gritty at-bat for his first career RBI.The walk to De Aza was the tough one, Maddon said. It was just one of those nights.The throw to third allowed Nimmo to reach second, and the Mets had two runners in scoring position. With the Cubs playing their infield in, Neil Walker hit an RBI chopper toward the middle against reliever Pedro Strop.Figuring he had no play at the plate, Baez threw to third in an attempt to get Nimmo. But the wide throw ticked off Bryants glove and rolled into foul territory, letting Nimmo cross the plate with a big smile on his face.KB was backpedaling to the base. It was tough for him to catch it, because he was moving the other way, Baez said. I went to third because I didnt think I had a chance at first, either.Erik Goeddel (1-0) struck out two in 1 2/3 hitless innings for the win.LONG BALLCespedes drive came off the bat at 110 mph and would have traveled 441 feet unimpeded, according to MLBs Statcast. ESPN Stats & Info had it at 466 feet. Either way, it was thought to be the first home run to reach the third deck at Citi Field, which opened in 2009. I really think that got the guys energized, Mets manager Terry Collins said.TRAINERS ROOMCubs RF Jason Heyward was rested against the left-hander with Chicago in the middle of playing 24 straight days. He has a little soreness on his left side but certainly could have started, Maddon said. Heyward pinch-hit in the eighth and shattered his bat on a weak grounder back to the mound against lefty Jerry Blevins, stranding two runners. ... INF Tommy La Stella (strained right hamstring) went 1 for 4 in his third rehab game for Triple-A Iowa and is getting close to coming off the DL. RHP Adam Warren started that game for Iowa against Round Rock and threw 73 pitches over five innings, his second Triple-A tuneup as he gets stretched out in the minors to make a spot start for Chicago next Tuesday or Wednesday at home against Cincinnati.UP NEXTCubs RHP Jason Hammel (7-4, 2.58 ERA) starts Friday night against RHP Jacob deGrom (3-4, 2.67), who won Game 3 of the NLCS last year at Wrigley Field. The 2015 All-Star is 0-4 in 10 starts since beating San Francisco on April 30. Chicago has lost Hammels last four outings after going 9-2 in his first 11. He is 0-3 with a 4.91 ERA in five career starts against the Mets, but all those losses came before 2013. Jonathan Villar Jersey . The 28-year-old from Calgary matched his career best after missing just one shot in his two rounds of shooting in the mens 10-kilometre sprint competition. Smith finished in 23 minutes 15. Cecil Cooper Jersey . By having more great seasons. Manning was the only unanimous choice for the 2013 Associated Press NFL All-Pro team Friday. http://www.brewersteamshop.com/Brewers-Zach-Davies-Kids-Jersey/ .C. -- Chris Thorburn thinks one of the reasons the Winnipeg Jets have been successful under new coach Paul Maurice is that theyre playing together as a team. Wasps served up a seven-try show as they brushed aside Harlequins 47-18 at the Ricoh Arena to make it five wins from five in the Aviva Premiership.Led by a storming display from powerhouse number eight Nathan Hughes, the hosts had the bonus point banked before half-time.Despite easing off in the third quarter, Wasps added a touch of gloss to the final scoreline with three late scores as they went back to the top of the table.After Wasps kept the ball for two minutes from the kick-off, Jimmy Gopperth put a pinpoint kick into the corner and the home teams forwards drove hooker Ashley Johnson over for his third try of the season.Both sides went wide at every opportunity in an entertaining opening quarter. A Christian Wade break sparked a promising Wasps attack which ended when his inside pass went to ground, after which Quins Mike Brown and Marland Yarde combined from a quick throw-in and only Josh Bassetts vital interception prevented a score.The visitors ended the first 20 minutes all square, after Jamie Roberts got on Yardes shoulder to force his way over.Their scoreboard parity was short-lived, however, as Wasps recovered the kick-off and Guy Thompson powered over from 25 metres for a try which Gopperth upgraded.Tim Swiel kicked two 30-metre penalties for Harlequins, but they were split by a home try of the highest quality.Bassett recovered Gopperths precise grubber and when he found Elliot Daly steaming up in support, the centres flat pass sent Dan Robson to the possts for another converted score. Manny Pina Jersey. Daly soon followed his England colleague onto the scoreboard with another brilliant long-distance score.He took a flat pass and sped through the Harlequins midfield untouched before going behind the posts from 40 metres to bank the try bonus point.After Gopperth again converted, Harlequins grabbed their second try, touched down by number eight James Chisholm after a long period of continuity and a neat loop move in midfield.The third quarter was dominated by Harlequins, but despite being camped in the hosts half they were unable to claim a third try.Their driving lineout was well repelled by Dai Youngs men, and Rob Millers nearly-missed tackle did just enough to force Tim Visser into touch as the Scotland international sped to the corner.Finally Wasps sparked back into life following a rash of replacements, and Sam Jones powerful break and some quick hands sent Wade into the corner for a converted score.A sixth try, and Kyle Eastmonds first since joining Wasps from Bath, soon followed.Hughes powered through midfield and when he was hauled down by a last-ditch tackle, Joe Simpsons long pass allowed Eastmond to outpace the cover.A set move from a scrum and a nice line from Daly then sent Bassett to the corner with five minutes remaining, and Gopperth again added the extras to wrap up the scoring.
