NEW YORK -- David Wright was touched by the outpouring of congratulations he received for becoming the Mets career RBIs leader from Citi Fields security guards to the clubhouse boys to his teammates. Jason Hatcher Jersey . What really motivates him, though, is his desire to win a World Series with the team he grew up rooting for. Wright hit a go-ahead two-run homer to break a tie with Darryl Strawberry atop the clubs all-time RBIs list, R.A. Dickey outpitched Mark Buehrle in a crafty duel and New York beat the Miami Marlins 5-1 on Wednesday night. "Its nice being mentioned for the individual things but what I really want is to be mentioned, have that type of legacy that those guys had in 86 and even the Mike Piazza era and the Subway Series," the 29-year-old Wright said. "Thats ultimately where I want to be mentioned." Jose Reyes singled with one out in the Marlins eighth inning for his first hit against his former team in eight at-bats, eliciting yet another chorus of lusty boos from the crowd that once adored the ever-smiling shortstop. Lucas Duda had an RBI single and pinch-hitter Mike Baxter hit a two-run double in the eighth, helping hand the Marlins their fourth straight loss. Miami has scored only four runs in the skid. "I dont know if we be facing great pitching or its a combination of good pitching and bad hitting. Maybe if we (had) come in another situation where we swinging the bats well, we make those guys look like nothing," Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen said. "But right now, everybody look like Cy Young on the mound." Wrights homer gave him 735 RBIs and broke a tie with Strawberry, who won a World Series title in 1986 with the Mets. "Its just a testament of his fortitude," Dickey said. "Thats fun to watch as a teammate." In contrast to the matchup of aces Johan Santana and Josh Johnson on Tuesday night that the Mets ended up winning 2-1, Dickey (3-1) and Buehrle (1-3) rarely reached 85 mph on the scoreboard radar for seven innings. Dickey allowed three hits and a walk, and struck out seven. Both starters were hurt by the homer, though. Omar Infante connected in the fifth for the Marlins second hit and Wright went deep in the sixth, the Mets fourth hit of the game. Wright had matched Strawberry a week ago on the clubs RBIs chart. Jon Rauch gave up a one-out hit in the eighth to Reyes with the Mets ahead 2-1. Having seen what the dynamic speedster could do on the bases might have spooked catcher Josh Thole. On a called third strike of Hanley Ramirez to end the inning, Thole threw down to second where no one was covering -- his teammates were running off the field. With the weather more to his liking, Dickey bounced back from a horrid outing in rainy Atlanta in which he gave up three homers and eight runs in 4 1-3 innings. "In that situation with Atlanta, I could put it on something," Dickey said of his lack of command. "I had a good knuckleball (Wednesday)." After breezing through the first 4 1-3 innings this time, allowing only a hit that nicked off the glove of diving third baseman Wright, the knuckleballer gave up a homer to Infante. Infante connected to deep left, ending a string of 10 straight outs for Miami. Reyes was right there at the top step of the Marlins dugout to greet the second baseman with one of his elaborate handshakes that Mets fans loved to see when he was playing in Queens. The homer snapped Miamis stretch without an earned run against Dickey at 24 innings. He was 3-0 in three starts against the Marlins last season, allowing only one unearned run. Dickey had a 1-2-3 sixth, then Buehrle hit Kirk Nieuwenhuis with a pitch leading off the bottom half. With two outs, Wright sent a drive to centre field that cleared the new fences -- but wouldve hit the old green-black wall -- to make it 2-1. "Im more frustrated by the 0-2 (pitch) to Nieuwenhuis, hitting him," Buehrle said. "Any time youre 0-2 on somebody and you put him on free, an 0-2 walk him or 0-2 hit em, thats never good." Wright was 2 for 20 before that homer. "It means a lot under the circumstances," said Wright, who got the milestone ball. Its nice to be able to do it in that fashion, winning the game and most importantly carrying in some momentum going into (Thursday)." Buehrle was facing the Mets for the first time in a 12-plus year career spent entirely with the Chicago White Sox until signing a free-agent deal this winter to follow his former manager to Miami. Pitching on six days rest, he gave up five hits and two runs. Buehrle got some help from Gaby Sanchez in the fourth. With a runner on first and two outs, he made a diving stop behind first base on Dudas sharp grounder to end the inning. NOTES: The Mets signed INF Brad Emaus and OF Fred Lewis to minor league contracts and assigned both to Triple-A Buffalo. Emaus, who was the Mets starting second baseman on opening day last season, was playing with Laredo of the independent American Association. Lewis hit .200 (3 for 15) with Cleveland during spring training. He hit .230 with three homers and 19 RBIs for Cincinnati last season. ... The Mets had no new news on pitcher Mike Pelfreys right elbow. The team sent the MRI results to Dr. James Andrews for a second opinion. After the game, manager Terry Collins said he forgot to ask. ... Marlins RF Giancarlo Stanton has not homered in 58 at-bats. Brian Orakpo Jersey . The NFL club and Rogers Communications announced Wednesday theyve put the beleaguered Bills Toronto Series -- which features Buffalo playing exhibition and regular-season games at Rogers Centre -- on hold for at least a year. Jason Hatcher Red Jersey . The Michigan lineman faces three assault charges stemming from an incident in December, according to a report from ESPN. The report states Lewan is scheduled to be arraigned in April on one count of aggravated assault and two counts of assault or assault and battery.There is desire and there is talent. On your football team, you hope you have both in the extreme. Some times you win because of superior talent other times it comes down to desire or "want to" so to speak. The Winnipeg Blue Bombers beat the Montreal Alouettes and took control of first place in the East because of desire. Now, Im sure Montreal wanted to win as well, but after being outscored 16-0 in the third quarter, having a comfortable advantage I thought Winnipeg would fade in the fourth. Instead, the opposite happened. They accelerated in the fourth and won by one point. Football talent in many ways is easy to recognize. There are so many players, playing all the time that if you compare teams player to player with their opposition you can get a good idea of who is good and who is not so good. What is difficult to determine is desire. How important football is to the player when times get tough. In my case, my desire was superior to my talent. The main reason I was able to excel in football in high school, in Division 1 NCAA, in the NFL and the CFL was desire. It was important to me internally. I was willing to pay an intense price, and did to experience what I did as a player. It is a great point of perrsonal pride for me that cant be mitigated by anything or anyone. Darrell Green Gold Jersey. I believe if you want something bad in life, and are willing to pay the price for it, 90 percent of the time you will get it. It may take time, but that is part of the price. This year in the CFL has been an odd one in that so many teams play so well one week, and so poorly the next week. The talent level has not changed, but the focus, awareness and desire does from week to week. Desire in many ways creates talent but talent rarely creates desire. From Joe Mack, to Paul LaPolice, to Buck Pierce, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers have gone from 4-14 last season to in control of the East Division with two games to play this year. There is no guarantee they will beat Toronto at home next week or Calgary the week after. But then again, there was no guarantee they would beat Montreal two out of three times this year either. Right now, they are in the perfect situation that every player and every team desires: to be dependant on nobody but themselves for on field success. If they play the way they played in the fourth quarter against the Alouettes for four more games, they will not only have success, but a Grey Cup championship ring to show for it. cheap jerseys ' ' '
