NEW YORK (AP) — Adam Wainwright became the major leagues’ first 10-game winner by pitching seven scoreless innings and sent Matt Harvey to his first loss of the season, leading the St. Louis Cardinals over the New York Mets 2-1 Thursday in a classic pitching matchup. Wainwright (10-3) retired his first 11 batters before David Wright’s single, and allowed four hits with six strikeouts and two walks. Wainwright matched his career best by winning his fifth straight start, dropped his ERA to 2.18 and got his 1,000th career strikeout when Wright was called out on a first-inning curveball.
Known best in New York for freezing Carlos Beltran with a called third strike to end Game 7 of the 2006 NL championship series, Wainwright had been 0-4 with an 8.46 ERA in four starts against the Mets since beating them on April 18, 2010.
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) – The College World Series opening ceremonies are set for 8:30 p.m. Friday at TD Ameritrade Park. Admission is free. ESPN baseball analyst and former major-league pitcher Orel Hershiser will be the featured speaker, and the participating teams will be introduced after an Olympic-style grand entrance. There also will be a tribute to Dennis Poppe (Pope), who is retiring after serving as the NCAA’s lead administrator at the CWS since 1988.
A Flag Day celebration will feature patriotic music by the Lincoln Southeast High School Marching Nights, and a large American flag will be unfurled. A fireworks show will end the festivities. The event will be preceded by the “Road to Omaha Jam” at 6 p.m. in Lot B, south of the stadium, and will feature the rock band O.A.R.

NEW YORK (AP) — Dillon Gee had his third straight stellar start, Lucas Duda hit one of three Mets homers and New York scored the most runs allowed by Shelby Miller in his young career for a 5-1 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday night. David Wright and Marlon Byrd also connected for the Mets, who snapped a three-game skid and improved to 2-6 in June. Duda drove in two runs, including a first-inning single that scored Daniel Murphy from first base.
With prized pitching prospect Zack Wheeler nearing his promotion to the big leagues, Gee (5-6) has done everything possible to protect his spot in the rotation. The right-hander has yielded only three earned runs over 21 innings in his past three starts — all wins.
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Fed up with fans interrupting the College World Series games by running onto the field, officials are warning of full prosecution for anyone who pulls such a stunt. Omaha city prosecutor David Smalheiser (SMALL-hy-zer) said Wednesday he didn’t know how many people have been ticketed in recent years. According to media reports, six people were cited last year alone, including a 17-year-old girl who patted the backsides of two players while security personnel chased her.
Smalheiser said trespassers face six months in jail and a $500 fine. Dennis Poppe (Pope) of the NCAA said “idiots” who run onto the field are spoiling what for most players is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to play for a national championship.
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) – Iowa will open the season at home against Northern Illinois at 2:30 p.m. on Aug. 31.
