Extra bases

- Nick Evans was recalled from Triple-A Buffalo to replace Reyes and immediately was put in the starting lineup at first base. Evans had a 19-game hitting streak for the Bisons that ended a week earlier.

- Terry Collins said he will keep someone rested in the bullpen in case R.A. Dickey (sore glute) has a problem Friday night in the cooler climate of San Francisco.
