NEW YORK -- Jose Reyes trotted over to third base at the beginning of batting practice, ready to take his grounders during infield drills with the New York Mets.All at once, the four-time All-Star shortstop was in a brand new spot and yet right at home.Reyes rejoined his original team on Tuesday and received a warm welcome back from fans at Citi Field in his first major league game since serving a 59-day domestic violence suspension. Batting leadoff against the Miami Marlins, he quickly doffed his helmet to a cheering crowd -- some fans stood and applauded -- when he stepped to the plate in the first inning.Just called up from the minors, Reyes faked a bunt and whiffed on three pitches against left-hander Wei-Yin Chen, tipping a high fastball into the mitt of catcher Jeff Mathis for strike three.But for the 33-year-old switch-hitter, simply slipping on a Mets uniform felt great.I still dont believe that Im here again. Im happy, Reyes said before the game. Like I said, coming back here, it feels like Im home. I feel comfortable. When I feel comfortable, Im going to perform. Nothing for me now to worry about. I sleep in my own bed. Feels like Im with a family here in New York.Reyes, who still resides nearby on Long Island, acknowledged he wasnt sure what sort of reception he would get in the wake of his domestic violence penalty, though New York fans were very supportive when he began his minor league assignment with Class A Brooklyn on June 26.A fan favorite in Queens for years, he publicly apologized again Tuesday and said people deserve a second chance in life.I know theres going to be some people that are going to hate me, Reyes said. I understand that. I put myself in that situation, like I said before. But (anyone) who knows me from the bottom of their heart, they know that Im not that kind of person.The speedy Reyes played for the Mets from 2003-11 and holds franchise records for stolen bases (370) and triples (99). He has said he always wanted to stay, but New York didnt make much of a push to retain him when he became a free agent.Reyes left after winning the 2011 NL batting crown and signed a $106 million, six-year contract with Miami. He was traded in November 2012 to Toronto and then last July to Colorado, which released him after he completed his domestic violence suspension this year.Major League Baseball imposed the punishment after Reyes got involved in an altercation with his wife in Hawaii last October that initially resulted in a criminal charge, which was later dropped.Many at Citi Field seemed ready to give Reyes his second chance. Even MLB embraced the homecoming narrative by tweeting that Reyes is BACK in Queens with a smiley face emoji and photos of fans with signs supporting the infielder.He was a part of this franchise for so long that the chances of him getting a second chance here are better because of his history here and how much we loved him, said Erica Kastel, 22, from Commack. We are more willing to accept him. Its like hes coming home.Not all fans in the crowd of 29,477 were as forgiving, though.I dont think its appropriate, said Katie Conners, a mother from Islip who attended the game with her young son. I think if somebodys been charged with a domestic violence crime, they should not be rewarded with however much money to play a professional sport.After he was cut by the Rockies, Reyes signed a minor league contract with the Mets to play his way into big league shape and batted a combined .176 (6 for 34) in two games with Brooklyn and nine for Double-A Binghamton.How much he will hit after going so long without facing major league pitching remains to be seen, but Reyes certainly gives the Mets an element of speed theyve been sorely lacking.He started at third base Tuesday night, his first big league appearance anywhere other than the middle infield. Reyes shifted to the hot corner in the minors while preparing to fill in for Mets captain and longtime teammate David Wright, likely out for the season following neck surgery.New York manager Terry Collins said Reyes also will be used to spell shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera occasionally and could even see time in center field soon, an idea that was agreeable to Reyes.Wilmer Flores, productive for the past month while subbing for Wright at third, will move back into the utility infield role New York envisioned for him before the season. He batted cleanup and started at second base Tuesday to give Neil Walker a rest and is expected to spell James Loney at first on Wednesday.Flores will remain a big factor against left-handed pitching, Collins said.To make roster room for Reyes, the Mets optioned infielder Matt Reynolds to Triple-A Las Vegas and transferred Wright to the 60-day disabled list.Back with the Mets for the first time in five years, Reyes wore his familiar No. 7 after Travis dArnaud agreed to give it up. The catcher, an Indianapolis Colts fan who switched to No. 18 in honor of Peyton Manning, said he thought it was the right thing to do because Reyes has much more big league service time and it was important to him.Reyes said he has a surprise gift in store for dArnaud as a thank you, but both players chose to keep the details private for now.

Yeezy Boost Danmark . - Levi Browns tenure at left tackle for the Pittsburgh Steelers is over before it even began.BROSSARD, Que. - It has been one injury after another for the Montreal Canadiens. Goaltender Carey Price was the latest to go down as the team announced Thursday he will miss the rest of the Canadiens playoff series against the Ottawa Senators with a lower-body injury. That came a day after captain Brian Gionta was told he will be out for the rest of the post-season with a torn biceps tendon in his left arm. He is to undergo surgery on Friday. With centre Lars Eller out with a concussion and facial injuries from an open hit by Ottawas Eric Gryba in Game 1, and with forwards Brandon Prust and Ryan White sidelined with upper-body injuries, the Canadiens had a patchwork lineup in Thursdays must-win Game 5 at the Bell Centre. Habs defenceman Josh Gorges said the missing regulars meant the rest will have to hunker down and play more as a team while facing elimination from their best-of-seven Eastern Conference quarter-final series. "It magnifies it even more when youre missing key players from your lineup," said Gorges. "The emphasis goes even more on being a team. "Playing together, playing tight. We have to be five-man units all over the ice. Thats the only way we can be successful." With Price out, Peter Budaj made his first career playoff start, with Robert Mayer of the AHL Hamilton Bulldogs as his backup. Forward Michael Blunden was to see his first action as well. The 30-year-old Budaj went 8-1-1 with a 2.29 goals-against average and a .908 save percentage this season. But his only regulation time loss was a 5-1 defeat at Ottawa on Jan. 30 in which he faced 27 shots. He also played in the overtime period of a 3-2 loss in Game 4 in Ottawa on Tuesday night in which he admitted he should have stopped Kyle Turris game-winning shot at the 2:32 mark. "Hes a good goalie," said Habs forward Colby Armstrong. "He competes hard and gives us a chance to win. "Hes played great for us this year when hes had to come in and shut the door. We have a lot of faith in him." Price, who injured his right knee late in regulation time of Game 4, struggled at times in the series and had a 3.26 goals-against average and .894 save percentage. It left Canadiens fans hoping for the kindd of turnaround that Jaroslav Halak, who like Budaj is from Slovakia, helped pull off in 2010.dddddddddddd That year, Montreal erased Washingtons 3-1 lead in the first round of the playoffs and then upset Pittsburgh before losing to Philadelphia in the conference final. "We know his ability," Gorges said of Budaj. "Were a confident group in front of him and we know we have to play the same way we would any other night." Budajs strong play prompted the Canadiens to give him a two-year contract extension worth US$1.4 million per year on April 10. He signed a free agent with Montreal in 2011 from the Colorado Avalanche. In Denver, he was backup to Craig Anderson, who is now the Senators starter. Mayer has been called up before, including on Feb. 16 this season, but has yet to get into a game for the Canadiens. Gionta was injured in the second period of Game 1. He sat out the next game, but returned and assisted on Montreals only goal in a fight-filled 6-1 defeat in Game 3. But the pain was to much to continue in the series. "That just shows his character and leadership," said Gorges. "Hes been outstanding since hes been here. "Hes helped change the face of this franchise back to being a proud franchise. I think the rest of us can follow in his footsteps." Gionta is expected to be ready for training camp in the fall. There was no word on how long Prust or White will be out of the lineup. Eller has been skating with fitness coach Pierre Allard but is not expected back soon. A quote from Gryba on Wednesday raised some eyebrows and when he said: "We can smell blood. We can taste blood. And its time to put them away." Some found it provocative because of the pool of blood Eller left on the ice after the hit. But Gorges said he hadnt heard the quote and coach Michel Therrien said "no comment." Senators forward Zack Smith said Gryba chose his words poorly. "In some cases players say stuff that fuels the other team, but it that case, Im sure guys over there know he didnt mean it in that way — literal blood, as in the Eller hit," said Smith. "Not that it matters, but Im sure they know he didnt mean it that way." ' ' '
