Whas Happened In Sports Last Night

• US Open: Novak Djokovic battled hip, ankle and tummy troubles to beat Spain’s Tommy Robredo during US Open play to reach the quarterfinals. Call us curious, but maybe if he had someone there to help him with his ailments… oh, we don’t know, maybe a certain Paraguayan Olympian… it wouldn’t have take five sets to dispatch the 15th-ranked Roberdo.

• MLB: David Ortiz was 3-for-3 with four RBI and Dustin Pedrioa had five RBIs in their crushing of Baltimore. They obviously were playing Scarface in the locker room before the game tp pump themselves up. The word is yours, indeed. Boston 14, Baltimore 2 [UPI]
• MLB: The Mets bullpen actually came through for the team instead of blowing the win against Milwaukee. Carlos Beltran’s hamstring—actually held together at this point by actual string—didn’t snap and he popped a three-run homer, but it was Endy Chavez’s run in the 10th that secured the win, putting the Mets two games ahead of Philly in the NL East race.
