Terry Collins took the blame for left-hander Johan Santana's poor outing on Friday night -- his first since throwing the first no-hitter in Mets history. Santana threw a career-high 134 pitches last Friday. He gave up a career-high four home runs in five innings against the Yankees, including back-to-back-to-back homers for the first time in his career. "I am responsible for the way he pitched," Collins said. "He was rusty. The command of his stuff was not as sharp as it's been the past three or four or five starts. It was my doing tonight. "We erred on the side of caution, and it cost us the game."
