NEW YORK -- Just shy of a year. Thats how long Jeurys Familias saves streak lasted -- until Yadier Molina ended it with one perfectly timed swing.Molina and pinch-hitter Kolten Wong each stroked an RBI double in the ninth inning, and the St. Louis Cardinals snapped Familias string of 52 straight saves in rallying to beat the New York Mets 5-4 on Wednesday night.A huge boost, Wong said. We needed this.Yoenis Cespedes hit a go-ahead homer off Adam Wainwright to cap a three-run comeback in the seventh that gave the Mets a 4-3 lead. But then Familia, who hadnt blown a regular-season save opportunity since July 30 last year, finally faltered.Jedd Gyorko drew a four-pitch walk with one out in the ninth and was replaced by pinch-runner Randal Grichuk. Molina hit the next pitch to deep center field, and Grichuk scored standing up to tie it.Molina was thrown out at third by Familia (2-2) on pinch-hitter Jeremy Hazelbakers comebacker, but Hazelbaker stole second and scored when Wong lined a double just inside the left-field line.That was probably one of the top, top things Ive experienced in a while, said Wong, who lost his everyday job at second base this season and got demoted to the minors last month. To see some kind of light at the end of the tunnel was definitely something I needed and something that Ive been wanting for long, long time.Familias franchise-record saves streak was the third-longest in major league history behind Tom Gordon (54) and Eric Gagne (84).They made good contact on my sinker, and I walked a guy and Molina came and jumped on the first pitch and thats it, said Familia, charged with three blown saves in last years World Series loss to Kansas City.Jonathan Broxton (3-2) tossed a scoreless eighth and Seung Hwan Oh got three quick outs for his sixth save.Including a split of Tuesdays doubleheader, St. Louis took two of three from the Mets in a matchup of NL wild-card contenders.Logan Verrett pitched seven efficient innings and slumping Neil Walker went 3 for 3 with a base on balls for the third-place Mets, who dropped 5 1/2 games behind NL East-leading Washington.This is a really tough one to take, manager Terry Collins said.Matt Holliday hit a two-run double off Verrett with two outs in the third, and Matt Adams followed with an RBI double that made it 3-1.Wainwright, who entered 3-0 in July with a major league-low 0.93 ERA, nursed that lead until the seventh -- repeatedly pitching out of trouble. He nearly did so again after striking out Curtis Granderson and Asdrubal Cabrera with runners at the corners.But then Travis dArnaud scored on a wild pitch and Cespedes, who fouled off three full-count offerings, socked a two-run homer off the facing of the second deck in left-center.It came on the 117th and final pitch from the 34-year-old Wainwright, who had not allowed a home run in just more than 66 innings since Washingtons Ryan Zimmerman connected on May 28. That was the longest streak in the majors this season.It was almost heartbreaking. For a moment it was. I was at my lowest of lows this season, Wainwright said. It was almost really bad, but the team saved me tonight.COMING ATTRACTION?Because of Tuesdays doubleheader, St. Louis needs a fill-in starter Saturday night in Miami. But manager Mike Matheny would not say whether the team was leaning toward promoting RHP Alex Reyes to make his major league debut. The 21-year-old Reyes, one of baseballs premier prospects, was removed from his Triple-A outing after three innings Tuesday -- perhaps to keep him available for Saturday. Left-handed reliever Tyler Lyons, who made 20 major league starts from 2013-15, also could be a candidate. Were not ruling out anything at this point, Matheny said.POWER OUTAGECardinals hitters were kept in the ballpark after the club homered in 17 consecutive games -- its longest streak since a team-record run of 19 in 2006.TRAINERS ROOMCardinals: 1B-OF Brandon Moss (sprained left ankle) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment Thursday at Double-A Springfield, with All-Star INF Matt Carpenter (strained right oblique) not far behind. But neither has a defined timetable to return, Matheny said.Mets: 3B Jose Reyes received an injection and treatment for the ribcage strain on his left side. He is likely to be sidelined until at least Friday, Collins said, and Wilmer Flores will continue to fill in.UP NEXTCardinals: RHP Michael Wacha (5-7, 4.37 ERA) starts Thursday night in Miami against RHP Jose Fernandez (12-4, 2.54), who is 26-1 with a 1.47 ERA at Marlins Park.Mets: RHP Jacob deGrom (6-5, 2.73 ERA) looks to rebound from his worst start of the season Thursday afternoon against Colorado LHP Tyler Anderson (3-3, 3.56) in the opener of a four-game series.

SEPANG, Malaysia -- Lewis Hamilton fired the latest shot in the close Formula One title fight against Nico Rosberg by edging his Mercedes teammate and setting the fastest time in Fridays practice for the Malaysian Grand Prix.Rosberg had bettered Hamilton in every on-track session in the previous race in Singapore en route to a third successive win that saw him reclaim the lead in the drivers championship, but Hamilton responded in the steamy conditions at the Sepang International Circuit.His best lap time of 1 minute, 34.944 seconds was almost a quarter of a second better than that of Rosberg as temperatures on the resurfaced track climbed past 58 degrees (136 F).It was briefly much hotter than that in pit lane, where a fire engulfed the Renault of Kevin Magnussen, causing the first practice session to be red-flagged.A fuel leak, which could not be stopped for several minutes, saw the fire repeatedly re-ignite despite the efforts of team mechanics and track marshalls, who doused the car in huge volumes of extinguisher foam.Magnussen sprang from the car when the flames began to lick at the cockpit, and was unhurt.Hamilton said it was a good day today, no issues to report.Theres a lot of data to analyze tonight to make sure we have a good understanding of the tires and of our position relative to the others, Hamilton said. Overall a good building block for tomorrow and the rest of the weekend.Most drivers were enthusiastic about the resurfaced track, which has made the circuit several seconds faster than last year. A feature is the remodeled final turn; the main overtaking spot on the circuit. It now has a negative camber, dropping lower at the outside, which will enable a variety of passing methods.It also meant there was very little tire degradation, maaking two pit stops rather than three the likely optimal strategy.ddddddddddddThe new track surface is really enjoyable to drive, Rosberg said. Challenging, but with good grip.Ferrari drivers Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen were third and fourth fastest, both within a second of Hamiltons time, while Red Bulls Max Verstappen was fifth and Force Indias Sergio Perez sixth.The fastest laps of Hamilton and Rosberg indicated that Saturdays qualifying session will again likely be a shootout between the two Mercedes drivers. However Ferrari and Red Bull were both enthusiastic about their performance on their long runs, which simulate race pace with heavier fuel loads and long stints on the same tires.Vettel, who won this race last year in similarly hot conditions, felt the high track temperatures help Ferrari relative to Mercedes.Historically we seemed to do well when its warm and today was quite warm, Vettel said. Our pace wasnt too bad from what I was told. If thats the name of the game, that the hot conditions suit us, then it might be a good thing.Verstappen, on his 19th birthday, acknowledged that Red Bull was off the pace in qualifying trim, but capable of challenging Mercedes in race conditions.I felt there was quite some lap time in the soft, Verstappen said. But I was most happy in the long run, it felt like I could do what I wanted with the car, I could throw it into the corner like I wanted to and still the pace was there.McLaren driver Fernando Alonso was seventh on the timesheets, but will start from the back of the grid on Sunday due to penalties for installing a newly developed power unit, which he used on Friday.
