SEATTLE - The run support Felix Hernandez deserved in his
three previous starts finally arrived. Logan Morrison hit
two long home runs, Hernandez threw seven strong innings
to win for the first time since June 2 and the Seattle
Mariners used a six-run fourth inning to rout the Boston
Red Sox 12-3 on Monday night. Seattle won its fourth
straight after a weekend sweep in Kansas City. The
Mariners finally provided Hernandez (9-2) with some runs
and battered right-hander John Lackey (8-5) in his
shortest outing since September 2011. Seattle had scored
one run total while Hernandez was on the mound in his
previous three starts. Getting a dozen against the Red
Sox was more than enough for Seattles ace. "I was so
happy. They came through. They were pretty good,"
Hernandez said. Hernandez set a club record with his
eighth straight start pitching at least seven innings and
allowing two earned runs or less. He struck out six,
walked none and efficiently handed the Red Sox their
fourth loss in five games. Hernandezs only miscues were
David Ortizs RBI single in the first and Mike Napolis
solo homer in the fourth. Morrison had the first
multihomer game of his career. His solo shot in the
second inning off Lackey pulled Seattle even and he added
to the offensive outburst with a two-run homer in the
seventh, a 421-foot drive to centre field off reliever
Chris Capuano. Morrison finished with four hits for the
third time in his career and four RBIs. Morrison felt he
started to have better at bats last week against San
Diego and carried over into the weekend series in Kansas
City. "Just feeling like I could stay behind the ball
better, put better swings on better pitches," Morrison
said. "You stick to the process, stick to the process,
keep grinding out at-bats and the next thing you know you
look at the end of the year and have pretty good numbers.
Thats what I hope happens this year." Seattles big fourth
inning started with Robinson Canos double. Kyle Seager
followed with an RBI single and Morrison was able to beat
the Red Sox shift with a single into right field to put
runners on the corners. Lackey was visibly miffed that
Morrisons grounder got through the defence and he
followed by walking Mike Zunino to load the bases. Dustin
Ackley then had the at-bat that changed the game. Ackley
made Lackey work for 13 pitches, eventually hitting a
grounder to first. Napoli threw to second to get the
second out but Lackey did not cover first base and the
chance at an inning ending double play was missed. Seager
scored and Lackey struggled with his composure. A wild
pitch allowed Morrison to score and a walk to Brad Miller
and Willie Bloomquists single loaded the bases. With one
swing, Chavez surpassed his RBI total for the season.
Brock Holt was playing shallow and unable to chase down
Chavezs line drive, clearing the bases and giving Seattle
a 7-2 lead. "I was trying to put something in play the
whole at-bat and score a run there. He was making
pitches," Ackley said. "There were maybe one or two, I
could have handled but fouled off the rest. ...
Fortunately it went a long way and he tired out a little
bit. Lackey was done after 3 2-3 innings, snapping a
string of 39 straight starts going at least five innings.
He gave up seven hits and walked three. Lackey needed 36
pitches to get through three innings and threw 38 pitches
in getting just two outs in the fourth. "I wasnt able to
make a pitch to get out of there," Lackey said. "It kind
of starting to go downhill and I couldnt stop it." NOTES:
Hernandez allowed a homer for the first time since April
21 vs. Houston. ... Lackeys last start of less than five
innings was May 14, 2013, vs. Tampa Bay when he went 4 1-
3 innings. ... Boston manager John Farrell said its
possible injured OF Shane Victorino (hamstring) could
rejoin the team this weekend in New York depending on his
rehab starts this week.

Jersey . - The New York Rangers have momentum, a
unified locker room and Henrik Lundqvist. WASHINGTON --
It was a quiet night for John Wall -- until the
Washington Wizards needed their All-Star to deliver.
Dribbling on the perimeter with the final seconds ticking
off the clock and Washington down by a point, Wall found
his opening. He drove the lane, drew the defence, and
slipped a pass to a cutting Nene for the game-winning
slam dunk with 0.9 seconds left in a 94-93 victory over
the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday night. "I just
prayed," Nene said. "I wanted to finish with the ball in
my hands. They put the ball into my hands. John, he did
amazing, penetration right there, he found me right
there." Slamming the ball with his right hand, Nene
finished with 30 points to match his career high. It
wasnt the play Wall had in mind. "I wanted to shoot a
jump shot," Wall said. "I saw Anthony Davis come and I
wanted to whip it around to (Marcin Gortat.) But I saw
(Jeff) Withey come at the same time and I saw Nene right
there and that was the easiest, safest pass and luckily
he got it off in time." Moments earlier, Wall had scored
with a driving, off-balance shot in the lane to put
Washington in front 92-91 with 27 seconds left. But Davis
answered with two free throws with seven seconds to go.
The Wizards called a timeout to set up Wall. "John made
two plays at the end that you cant teach," Washington
coach Randy Wittman said. "He got to the basket for the
layup. For being down one with the time running down,
under control, to make that last play to Nene for the
dunk, it was good execution down the stretch." The play
spoiled a big performance by Davis, who had 26 points and
11 rebounds. Anthony Morrow added 18 points on 7-of-8
shooting in a game that had 22 lead changes. "We were
down. We were up. We were down. We were up," Davis said.
"To come in close and lose, especially on a play like
that, is tough." Nene made 13 of 19 shots. With Wall and
Beal, the Wizards top two threats, combining for just 21
points, Washington turned to its frontcourt. Center
Marcin Gortat contributed 16 points and 10 rebounds.
Andre Milller, acquired in a deadline deal on Thursday,
made his Wizards debut, scoring five points with three
assists in 16 minutes.dddddddddddd "I thought I probably
played too many minutes," Miller said. "It will probably
take about a week. My wind was cool." It was an
uncharacteristic start for Washington, as Wall and Beal
failed to score in the first quarter. But the Wizards
other three starters compensated, hitting 11 of their
first 13 shots as Washington took an early lead and held
it for most of the half. Withey sparked New Orleans late
in the second quarter with an emphatic rejection of
Gortat. The 7-footer followed with a slam to give the
Pelicans their first lead since the opening minutes, 37-
36, and set the scene for a see-saw battle the rest of
the way. Early in the third quarter, New Orleans went on
a 9-0 run ignited by a 3-pointer by Eric Gordon and
followed by three fast-break baskets, two of them by
Davis. But Washington soon followed with a 15-2 spree,
which included seven points by Nene and a 3-pointer by
Martell Webster. Down by eight, New Orleans scored 11
straight points in a run that bridged the quarters and
was ignited by 3-pointers by reserve guards Tyreke Evans
and Morrow. The Pelicans led 89-85 when Brian Roberts hit
a pair of free throws with 3:48 left, and he had a chance
to increase it after a Washington turnover. But Roberts
threw an errant pass which was stolen by Nene who fed
Wall for a breakaway layup. Moments later, Wall returned
the favour in dramatic fashion. "I just knew it was seven
seconds and thats a lot of time," Wall said. "(In a loss
at Houston), we went early and left four seconds on the
clock. I wanted to make sure we got the last shot. If you
lose, you lose, if you win, you win." NOTES: Al
Harrington played for Washington for the first time in
two months following December knee surgery ... Greg
Stiemsma replaced Alexis Ajinica at centre for New
Orleans, but failed to score and had as many technical
fouls (one) as rebounds. Ajinica scored all nine of his
points in the second half and added nine rebounds.
