NEW YORK -- Fueled by the hot bats of Asdrubal Cabrera, Yoenis Cespedes and Neil Walker, the Mets have made a drive back into the thick of the postseason race. But on Sunday, before the end of the first inning against the Philadelphia Phillies at Citi Field, all three had gone down to injury.Manager Terry Collins said before the game that Cespedes has a tight quadriceps, Walker has a stiff back and both would be out of the lineup for the contest. Cabrera left the contest in the bottom of the first inning with a sore left knee.All three players have been bothered by these same injuries this season.Cabrera, the starting shortstop hitting second in the order, bunted for a one-out hit but collided with Phillies first baseman Tommy Joseph and came away holding his left wrist. After being checked out by the team trainer, Cabrera remained in the game. He moved to second on Kelly Johnsons single to right but was moving gingerly. He was later removed from the game for what the team called a sore left knee.Cabrera missed time with a left knee injury earlier this month and returned from the disabled list Aug. 19. He has thrived at the plate in nine games since, batting .455 with 3 home runs and 9 RBIs.Cespedes was out earlier this month with his quadriceps injury. He also came off the DL and began a run of torrid hitting. In eight games since his return, he has batted .355 with 4 home runs and 8 RBIs.His leg tightened up on him last night, Collins said of Cespedes before Sundays first pitch. We thought we should give him a day following a night game, but hes already shown how important he is, and we cant afford to blow these guys out, especially at this time with the way were playing. Were going to give him another day today.Collins said this was the first time Cespedes, who is batting .295 with 26 home runs and 67 RBIs this season, mentioned his quad since returning.Walker has had back issues and has been doing extra preparation to stay in the lineup. Since July 27, he has hit .440 with 7 home runs and 15 RBIs.Collins said Walker had felt some discomfort in his back when the team was in San Francisco last weekend.I talked to him this morning, and he needs a lot of time to get it stretched and loosened up, Collins said, adding that Walker was available to pinch hit.

LINCOLN, Neb. -- For three years, Ryker Fyfe has been Nebraskas No. 2 quarterback, and it took until senior day in his fifth season for him to realize the quintessential dream of football-loving boys who grow up in the state.Fyfe started a game at Memorial Stadium, and he came away a winner Saturday.I didnt know if this day would ever come, to be honest, said Fyfe, who turned 23 on Sunday. But it did, and I was ready.Fyfe might not be done yet, even though he broke a bone in his left (non-throwing) wrist in the 28-7 win over Maryland . He already has had surgery to place a pin in the wrist, and he and four-year starter Tommy Armstrong both were to practice Monday. Armstrong has been nursing a hamstring injury for more than a week.Coach Mike Riley said Monday he should have a good idea after practice Tuesday whether one or both of them will be available for Fridays game at Iowa. Zack Darlington, who moved from quarterback to receiver last spring and serves as the holder, also was to take practice snaps.If Fyfe plays, hell wear a brace on his wrist.The No. 17 Huskers (9-2, 6-2) will be playing a high-stakes game against the Hawkeyes (7-4, 5-3). A win, coupled with a Minnesota upset of No. 5 Wisconsin on the road Saturday, would send Nebraska to the Big Ten championship game as the West Division representative.Fyfe turned in a confidence-building performance against Maryland. He led touchdown drives of 72 and 54 yards on the Huskers first two possessions and a 78-yard TD drive on the fourth.Ryker played out of his mind, said Jordan Westerkamp, who caught a career-high eight passes, including a 4-yard touchdown. It was awesome having him back there. We were real successful in all areas of the game today.In the first half, Fyfe completed 14 of 20 passes for 153 yards and converted five third downs, four on passes and another when he ran around the right end for 21 yards. He also broke off a 14-yard run to conveert a fourth-and-1.dddddddddddd.Those early successes were critical for a quarterback who until Saturday had played sparingly this season, Westerkamp said.To get in there and to make some plays right away and to just get after it was a huge confident booster to Ryker and to all of us, he said.Fyfe cooled off in the second half and finished 23 of 37 for 220 yards. Most important, he didnt commit a turnover. In his only previous start, on the road against Purdue last year, he was intercepted four times and fumbled in a 55-45 loss. Thats a distant memory now for Fyfe.I promise I am not surprised at all, Riley said. The guy has some special qualities that are real important to quarterbacking. He has got a nice release, he has obviously got poise, and he has got good vision. He put a lot of balls in a nice location for guys to make some plays today. He missed a couple more by just a hair that could have been really exciting for the big picture.Fyfe grew up 80 miles west of Lincoln in Grand Island, and when he was playing at Grand Island Senior High, his favorite receiver was Sam Foltz. The two walked on together to Nebraska , with Foltz becoming an All-Big Ten punter. Foltz died in a July car accident in Wisconsin, and the Huskers dedicated this season to him.The senior day ceremony featured a tribute to Foltz, and that made for an emotional pregame.This should be a game that I should be walking out with Sam for my last game, but I knew he was with us, with me, in spirit, Fyfe said.Foltzs parents, Gerald and Jill Foltz, greeted each senior as he came out of the tunnel. Fyfe said he shared a special moment with them.They talked to me, gave me a hug and said, `Hell be with you out there. Just go out and play hard. So it was fun.---More AP college football: http://collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
