• ATLANTA -- Boston Celtics guard Rajon Rondo has been suspended for Game 2 of the opening-round playoff series against the Atlanta Hawks. The NBA announced its decision Monday, less than 24 hours after Rondo stuck out his chest to bump referee Marc Davis while complaining about a call in the final minute of Bostons 83-74 loss in Game 1. Rondo wont be able to play Tuesday night in Atlanta when the Celtics try to even the series (TSN, 7:30pm et/4:30pm pt). The NBAs assist leader scored 20 points and dished out 11 assists in the opener, leaving Boston with a huge hole in its lineup. The Celtics already have been playing without shooting guard Ray Allen, whos hobbling on a sore right ankle. Avery Bradley will likely move over to take Rondos place at the point.

Kirk Nieuwenhuis hit a leadoff homer and later connected for a two-run shot, and the Mets completed a three-game sweep by beating the Tampa Bay Rays 9-6 on Thursday. "Hopefully we can keep that momentum going," Nieuwenhuis said. Jason Bay also homered and Lucas Duda drove in three runs for the Mets, who were swept in a three-game series by the New York Yankees last weekend. "Youve got to be able to forget what the last series was and go play," Mets manager Terry Collins said. "Continue to grind it out." The Mets outscored Tampa Bay 29-9 in this series. "I thought it was tremendous by our guys," Collins said. "You come in and face the best pitching in the American League and put up runs like we did." Johan Santana (4-3) allowed four runs and six hits over five-plus innings. Frank Francisco struck out Ben Zobrist with the bases loaded on a 3-2 pitch to end it. "I think we caught this team on fire," Zobrist said. Nieuwenhuis began the afternoon with a home run off Jeremy Hellickson (4-3). Nieuwenhuis homered again during a four-run fourth, helping the Mets take an 8-4 lead. It was his first career multihomer game. Hellickson gave up a career-high eight runs and nine hits in 3 2-3 innings. The reigning AL Rookie of the Year, 0-3 over his last five starts, has allowed more than three earned runs in just five of 46 career starts. "They didnt miss too many mistakes," Hellickson said. "I left some changeups up and they just didnt miss bad pitches. I just made too many mistakes." Jon Rauch replaced Santana with the bases loaded and no outs in the sixth and worked out of the jam by striking out Sean Rodriguez and pinch-hitter Jose Labaton, and then getting a grounder from Elliot Johnson. "The bullpen deserves all the credit," Santana said. "They did a great job. For all of us, you dont want to come here and lose games. I think this is good for everybody to get three wins in a row, especially after losing three to the Yankees. Were just building up our connfidence.dddddddddddd. We played pretty good." Santana made his second start since the left-hander held St. Louis hitless on June 1, the first no-hitter in the Mets 51-year history. He allowed six runs and seven hits -- including four homers -- in a 9-1 loss to the Yankees last Friday. "Hes behind in the count a lot, which he normally doesnt do," Collins said. "The biggest thing (Thursday), the mistakes he made werent hit out of the ballpark." Desmond Jennings cut the Rays deficit to 9-5 with an RBI single off Miguel Batista with one out in the ninth. Francisco got the final two outs for his 16th save. After allowing a run-scoring grounder to Carlos Pena, the Mets closer fanned Zobrist. Duda had a sacrifice fly and Ike Davis drove in run with a single as the Mets went up 4-3 in the third. Duda also had a two-run double that chased Hellickson in the fourth. Tampa Bay took a 3-2 lead during the second when Matt Joyce hit a two-run double and Johnson had an RBI single. Zobrists RBI double in the third tied it at 4. Bay, who had been 1 for 21 since returning from a rib injury, gave New York a 2-0 advantage on a solo home run in the second. Davis added a run-scoring single in the ninth, giving him seven RBIs over his last four games. "They just beat us up for three days ... that happens," Tampa Bay manager Joe Maddon said. "Its happened here before. Weve been able to recover from that in the past and I anticipate well be able to do it again." NOTES: Tampa Bay placed DH Luke Scott on the 15-day DL with back stiffness.
