    R.A. Dickey wasn't feeling it Saturday. The air was heavy with humidity, his legs were tired and he had to make a mad dash up the first- base line in the fourth inning.

    Still, a so-so outing for the knuckleballer in his best season as a big leaguer looked pretty dominant.

    The 37-year-old first-time All-Star helped his own cause for his 16th victory, driving in a run with an infield single and pitching seven solid innings as the New York Mets ended a six-game skid by beating the Houston Astros 3-1.
