It was the 13th homer of the season and the 370th of his career for Howard, who moved into a tie with Gil Hodges for 77th on the all-time list.Obviously, in the moment, youre playing a game, but when I get time to sit back and reflect on it, its actually pretty cool, some of the names that Im there with, Howard said. Ive still got some work to do, but Im going to enjoy this one today.Carlos Ruiz doubled and had two hits for the fourth-place Phillies, who have won 11 of 15. Philadelphia also silenced a large contingent of Mets fans, who sometimes made Citizens Bank Park sound more like Citi Field for the second straight night.It was a good win, Phillies manager Pete Mackanin said. I didnt want to hear the Mets fans.Jose Reyes and Travis dArnaud drove in the runs for the Mets, who have dropped four of five since All-Star slugger Yoenis Cespedes was injured.Were not taking care of opportunities, manager Terry Collins said. Weve got to take advantage of all those opportunities. We had a chance to add on and we didnt get it done.New York failed to homer for just the second time in the last 14 games. The Mets entered having hit 14 homers in four games at Citizens Bank Park this season and 33 long balls over the last two years at Philadelphias home park.The Mets appeared primed to take the lead in the top of the seventh, but pinch-hitter Kelly Johnson flied out to short left field with runners on second and third and one out before left fielder Cody Asche made an excellent sliding catch for the final out on Asdrubal Cabreras sinking liner with the bases loaded.Cespedes was available as a pinch-hitter, but Collins said he went with Johnson because Cespedes couldnt run the bases in the event of a walk.Philadelphia capitalized on Cabreras throwing error at shortstop in the bottom half for the go-ahead run. Cabrera threw wide of first baseman James Loney, allowing speedy Peter Bourjos to reach with one out. Bourjos went to second on Asches walk against Jerry Blevins (3-1) and scored on Francos single to left.I had all the time, said Cabrera, who has four errors this season. It happens.The Phillies tacked on a run in the eighth when Ruiz led off with a double, went to third on a groundout and scored on Erik Goeddels wild pitch.Edubray Ramos (1-0) worked a hitless inning for his first major league win.

The right-hander singled and doubled to help his own cause.He really wasnt that sharp, but he pitched well enough to win, Mackanin said. Too many baserunners for my liking, but he got us into the seventh inning, so he did a good job that way.METS STARTING REPORTVerrett, making his seventh start in 25 appearances this season, gave up two runs and eight hits with four strikeouts and one walk in six innings. The right-hander is 1-4 with a 5.20 ERA as a starter this season. He took Matt Harveys spot in the rotation this month when the former ace was diagnosed with thoracic outlet syndrome.I felt good, Verrett said. I felt like I threw the ball well and kept us in the ballgame.TRAINERS ROOMCespedes missed his fourth straight game due to a strained right quadriceps. Collins said the outfielder will undergo testing Sunday morning to determine if he is able to play.UP NEXTThe teams wrap up their three-game series Sunday when Mets RHP Jacob deGrom (5-4, 2.61 ERA) opposes RHP Zach Eflin (2-2, 4.08).

EUGENE, Ore. -- Washington receiver Dante Pettis was succinct in his assessment of quarterback Jake Browning.Ridiculously good, Pettis said after Browning threw for 304 yards and a school-record six touchdowns in a 70-21 rout of Oregon on Saturday night.The victory snapped the No. 5 Huskies 12-game losing streak to the Ducks and left Browning -- who also ran for a pair of scores -- wanting more.Well take a win no matter what but yeah, its kind of cool. Seventy-seven wouldve been cool, too. The more points you can score the better, Browning said.Myles Gaskin ran for 197 yards and a touchdown for the undefeated Huskies, who have won nine straight games going back to last season. Pettis caught eight passes for 134 yards and two touchdowns, while John Ross had nine catches for 94 yards and three scores.Brownings eight touchdowns matched the Pac-12 single-game record. Washingtons 70 points were the most the team had scored since the 1944 season.Everybody is going to talk about the yards and touchdowns, but I was just doing my job, going through my reads, Browning said. I dont think there was anything outside of what I was supposed to do.Freshman Justin Herbert made his first college start and threw for 179 yards and two touchdowns for the Ducks, who continued their dramatic slide with a fourth straight loss. Oregon (2-4, 0-3 Pac-12) hadnt lost four straight since the 2006 season.The 70 points that Oregon allowed were the second-most in school history, one shy of a 71-7 loss at Texas in 1941.Herbert was intercepted on his first pass of the game, and Washington went on to score on the ensuing series on Brownings 1-yard touchdown run.Washington (6-0, 3-0) upped the lead on Brownings 3-yard TD pass to Ross. Rose also scored on a 15-yard pass from Browning as the Huskies built a 28-0 lead. Browning scored on a 7-yard keeper to put Washington ahead 35-7 at the end of the first half.Pettis caught touchdown passes of 10 and 28 yards as the Huskies built a 63-21 lead in the opening minutes of the final quarter.We dont really focus on the past, we try to focus on the present, but theres a lot of people back home who really, really wanted this so it feels good, Pettis said.A local prospect out of Eugenes Sheldon High School, Herbert is the first true freshman to start for the Ducks since Chris Miller in 1983. Trevor Daley Jersey. Graduate transfer Dakota Prukop started at quarterback in the Ducks first five games.Its like a broken record but we just have to keep getting after it, said Oregon defensive coordinator Brady Hoke. Thats the only way to fix it.POLL IMPLICATIONSThe decisive victory in a hostile setting -- and the end of that 12-game losing streak -- should reassure any doubters of Washingtons place in the top 10, although Oregon is clearly struggling this season. It was the Ducks worst loss (margin-wise) since they fell 63-0 at Nebraska in 1985.TAKEAWAYSOregon: Despite his obvious inexperience and that initial interception, Herbert showed potential. At one point in the first half he followed up a pump fake with a flip pass to tight end Pharaoh Brown. The issue for the Ducks continues to be the defense, which allowed the Huskies 682 yards in total offense.Washington: The Huskies with Browning continue to be an offensive force, completely dominating Oregons re-tooled D under Hoke.KEY INJURY: Oregon was without senior receiver Dwayne Stanford with an undisclosed injury. He was third on the team with 13 catches for 175 yards and a touchdown. In his honor, Brown wore his No. 88 jersey against the Huskies. When Brown was injured in 2014, Stanford wore his No. 85 jersey.Oregon running back Royce Freeman may have been injured during the game. Freeman ran for 50 yards but didnt play in the second half.QUOTABLE: Im just glad I dont have to talk about the streak, or have to answer that. Thats probably the No. 1 thing Ive been asked since the day I got to Seattle. Thats why Im really happy, so I dont have to answer that question, Washington coach Chris Petersen said.UP NEXTWashington: The Huskies return home for a bye next week before hosting Oregon State on Oct. 22Oregon: The Ducks also get a bye next weekend before a Friday night game on Oct. 21 in Berkeley.---AP college football website: collegefootball.ap.org Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
