PHOENIX -- Jonathon Niese knew immediately he had made a mistake. "In hindsight, I wish I would have done a lot of things different," Niese said after the New York Mets 11-5 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday night. "I think everyone in the ballpark including myself, know that I shouldnt have thrown that ball. When you are in the heat of the moment, when you are out there battling, I just tried to force it when I shouldnt have." "That ball" was a fisted grounder down the third-base line off the bat of Willie Bloomquist with the bases loaded in the second inning. Rather than simply holding the ball, Niese spun and tried to make an off-balance throw to first base. But the ball bounced once yards short of the bag and rolled down the first-base line. By the time first baseman Ike Davis chased it down, all three runners had scored and Bloomquist was standing on third. "It was one of those things where I wanted to make the play so bad and when I picked up the ball I fell off-balance in mid-throw," Niese said. "I was like, I shouldnt throw this." "Im sure he wishes he could take it back," Mets manager Terry Collins said. "He didnt have a play on it. If Wright doesnt get to it, its pretty much a base hit. It was just one of the mistakes we made tonight." Two batters earlier, Niese (7-5) walked Henry Blanco with the bases loaded -- his first walk allowed in his past 25 innings and followed that by giving up an RBI single to Arizona starter Josh Collmenter. "Its a pitchers worst nightmare to walk a guy with the bases loaded," Niese said. "It is inexcusable. Every pitch I didnt have command of." Niese allowed eight runs -- six earned -- and nine hits with five strikeouts and a walk over six innings. "One of the reasons I left him in is I wanted him to work a little bit," Collins said. "I wanted to see if he could get himself into a little bit of a feel, a rhythm, get his release point back and get into synch so he could leave feeling better about himself than he did after the second inning." Ike Davis and David Wright homered for the Mets, who have lost 13 of 15. Bloomquist had two RBI singles for the Diamondbacks, who have won six of seven. Collmenter (3-2), who allowed five runs, seven hits and a walk with five strikeouts over six innings, got stronger as the game continued. He retired the final seven batters he faced. Davis gave the Mets a 1-0 lead with a home run to right leading off the second. Daniel Murphy then doubled and scored on Andres Torres two-out single to centre. "You could say that (the pitch was mistake) but if he throws it by me its a strikeout and no one is talking about where the pitch was," Davis said. "He missed over the middle with it. I just happened to get the barrel there and hit it pretty hard." Wrights towering three-run homer in the third followed singles by Ruben Tejada and Jordany Valdespin and pulled New York within 6-5. The home run, his 16th, snapped an 0-for-15 slump. Bloomquist hit his second run-scoring single in the fourth and Paul Goldschmidt singled home Kubel in the fifth to stretch Arizonas lead to 8-5. Justin Upton added an RBI single and Chris Young lined a two-out double to left in the seventh against Elvin Ramirez to make it 11-5.

NBA commissioner David Stern cancelled the rest of the November games Friday, saying there will not be a full NBA season "under any circumstances." The move came about after labour negotiations broke down again when both sides refused to budge on how to split the leagues revenues, the same issue that derailed talks last week. Now, a full month of NBA games have been cancelled, and Stern said theres no way of getting them back. "We held out that joint hope together, but in light of the breakdown of talks, there will not be a full NBA season under any circumstances," he said. "Its not practical, possible or prudent to have a full season now," added Stern, who previously cancelled the first two weeks of the season. And he repeated his warnings that the proposals might now get even harsher as the league tries to make up the hundreds of millions of dollars that will be lost as the lockout drags on. "Were going to have to recalculate how bad the damage is," Stern said. "The next offer will reflect the extraordinary losses that are piling up now." Just a day earlier, Stern had said he would consider it a failure if the sides didnt reach a deal in the next few days and vowed they would take "one heck of a shot" to get it done. Instead, negotiations broke off again over the division of basketball-related income, just as they did last Thursday. Union executive director Billy Hunter said the league again insisted it had to be split 50-50, while Stern said Hunter just walked out and left rather than discuss going below 52 per cent. Owners are insistent on a 50-50 split, while players last formally proposed they get 52.5 per cent, leaving them about US$100 million apart annually. Players were guaranteed 57 per cent in the previous collective bargaining agreement. "Derek (Fisher) and I made it clear that we could not take the 50-50 deal to our membership. Not with all the concessions that we granted," Hunter said. "We said we got to have some dollars." Instead, theyll now be out roughly $350 million, the losses Hunter previously projected for each month the players were locked out. He believed a full season could be played if a deal were made this weekend, but Stern emphatically ruled out any hope of that now. "These are not punitive announcements; these are calendar generated announcements," Stern said. No further talks have been scheduled. There was a sense of optimism entering the day after progress was made on salary cap issues during about 24 hours of talks over the previous two days. Then the sides brought the revenue split back into the discussion Friday and promptly got stuck on both issues. Stern said the NBA owners were "willing" to go to 50 per cent. But he said Hunter was unwilling to "go a penny below 52," that he had been getting many calls from agents and then closed up his book and walked out of the room. Hunter said the league initially moved its target down to 47 per cent during Fridays six-hour session, then returned to its previous proposal of 50 per cent of revenues. "We made a lot of concessions, but unfortunately at this time its not enough, and were not prepared or unable at this time to move any further," Hunter said. Union president Fisher said it was difficult to say why talks broke down, or when they would start up again. "Were here, weve always been here, but today just wasnt the day to try and finish this out," he said. There was some good news. Deputy Commissioner Adamm Silver said there was essentially a "tentative agreement" on most system issues, with Stern rattling off some of them: Owners agreed to keep the midlevel exception starting at $5 million a year; and contract lengths would be five years for players staying with their teams and four when leaving for another.dddddddddddd. "And then we hit a wall," Stern said. The small groups that were meeting the previous two days grew a bit Friday. Union vice-presidents Chris Paul -- wearing a Yankees cap for his trip to New York -- and Theo Ratliff joined the talks, and economist Kevin Murphy returned after he was unavailable Thursday. Mavericks owner Mark Cuban stayed for the session after taking part Thursday. Fisher said there were still too many restrictions in the owners proposal. Players want to keep a system similar to the old one, and fear owners ideas would limit player movement and the choices available to them in free agency. And though they might be inclined to give up one if they received more concessions on the other, players make it sound as if they are the ones doing all the giving back. The old cap system allowed teams to exceed it through the use of a number of exceptions, many of which the league wants to tweak or even eliminate. Hunter has called a hard cap a "blood issue" to players, and though the league has backed off its initial proposal calling for one, players think the changes owners want would work like one. "Weve told them that we dont want a hard cap. We dont want a hard cap any kind of way, either an obvious hard cap or a hard cap that may not be as obvious to most people but we know it works like a hard cap," Hunter said. "And so you get there, and then all of a sudden they say, Well, we also have to have our number. And you say, Well wait a minute, youre not negotiating in good faith." But if players think whats being proposed is a hard cap, heres another warning: Silver wont rule out the league seeking one again. "Our response is then lets have a hard cap, which is what we wanted," he said. "We dont think its a hard cap. ... Weve all been wasting our time if they believe this is a hard cap. Weve been spending literally hundreds of hours negotiating the specifics of a system, where theyre now saying is the equivalent of a hard cap. Weve been clear from the beginning from a league standpoint we would prefer a hard cap." When players offered to reduce their guarantee from 57 per cent to 53 per cent, Hunter said that would have transferred about $1.1 billion to owners over six years. Now, at 52.5, he said that would grow to more than $1.5 billion. But even a 50-50 split would be too high for some hardline owners, because it would reduce only $280 million of the $300 million they said they lost last season. Owners initially proposed a BRI split that players said would have had them around 40 per cent. Though they will miss a paycheque on Nov. 15, Hunter said each player would have received a minimum of $100,000 from the escrow money that was returned to them to make up the difference after salaries fell short of the guaranteed 57 per cent of revenues last season. The real losses, though, could be felt by arena staff and other people who work in fields connected to the game. Stern apologized to them in making the announcement. But Jeff Lee, a 37-year-old cafe owner and Warriors season-ticketholder in the East Bay, said he isnt discouraged about Fridays setback. "Im pretty certain that the seasons going to start sooner or later," Lee said. "I know when the season starts its going to be well worth the wait." cheap jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
