It's been more than a century since a National League starting pitcher was as perfect Erik Pears Nike Jerseys as Stephen Strasburg so far.Strasburg stayed undefeated, winning a marquee pitching matchup against an ailing Noah Syndergaard by tossing seven innings of two-hit ball Friday night that sent the Washington Nationals to a 3-1 victory over the banged-up New York Mets.Clint Robinson hit a two-run homer for the Nationals, going deep for the second consecutive night, and Daniel Murphy added an RBI double against his former team. Strasburg (12-0) struck out nine and became the first NL starter in 104 years to win his first 12 decisions in a season. He has won a franchise-record 15 straight since September"Just shows how good they swing on the days I pitch, I guess," Strasburg said with a laughOliver Perez and Blake Treinen combined to escape an eighth-inning jam, and Washington extended its NL East lead to four games over the Mets after dropping the opener of the four-game set Thursday night.Syndergaard (9-4) and slugger Yoenis Cespedes left early with injuries, hours after New York announced Fletcher Cox Elite Jersey that struggling pitcher Matt Harvey will have season-ending surgery for thoracic outlet syndrome.Cespedes was pulled after three innings with a strained right quadriceps and said he hopes to return after the All-Star break. The slugger got hurt chasing Murphy's double to deep center field in the third and was replaced by Juan Lagares in the fourth.With his velocity dipping, Syndergaard exited in the fifth with arm fatigue that was not elbow-related, the Mets said. The big right-hander has been pitching with a bone spur in his right elbow that he called "pretty insignificant.""His arm went dead. He's got a tired arm and (his) stuff went away," manager Terry Collins said. "But he said there's no pain."Cespedes and Syndergaard were selected for the All-Star Game on Tuesday in San Diego, but both are unlikely http://www.nflvikingsofficial.com/Authentic-Linval-Joseph-Jersey to participate, Collins said. They are expected to be examined Saturday."It's disappointing, but there will be a lot more," Syndergaard said. "It's a long season, you put a lot of wear and tear on your body, just right now I think I need a little break."Strasburg also was picked for the NL squad but was replaced on the roster Friday by Washington teammate Max Scherzer. Strasburg came off the disabled list this week and won't pitch in the Midsummer Classic as a precaution. The right-hander is from San Diego and plans to attend the game, the Nationals said."They came to me and they said that that was what they were thinking http://www.dolphinsshopnfl.com/Authentic-Cameron-Wake-Jersey," Strasburg said. "In my head, I'm like, I want to make up for the two starts I missed, so hopefully be able to start the first game back and get the second half going right."It was the first matchup between Syndergaard and Strasburg, who is 3-0 with a 1.83 ERA in three outings against the Mets this year. He became the first NL starter to begin 12-0 since Hall of Famer Rube Marquard opened 18-0 for the New York Giants in 1912.
