Miami, FL (Sports Network) - David Wright collected four hits and drove in three runs to power the New York Mets to a 9-3 win over the Miami Marlins.

Andres Torres contributed a two-run single for the Mets, who had their five- game winning streak snapped in Friday's series opener.

New York's Daniel Murphy finished 3-for-4 with a walk and an RBI, while Lucas Duda also had three hits.

R.A. Dickey (5-1) gave up nine hits but limited the Marlins to two runs over six innings.

Former Met Jose Reyes registered four hits for Miami, which fell to 9-2 in May.

Ricky Nolasco (4-1) will have to wait at least one more outing to establish the franchise mark for career wins. The Marlins right-hander was tagged for six runs on nine hits in 4 2/3 innings and remains tied with Dontrelle Willis (68) for the record.
