PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- Washington Nationals right-hander Doug Fister left a minor league start after one inning Thursday with a strain of the latissimus dorsi muscle on the right side of his back and may not be able to take his first turn in the rotation on April 6. Fister, who missed time earlier in spring training because of elbow inflammation, will be examined by team physician Dr. Wiemi Douoguih on Friday in Washington. "It certainly is a setback," manager Matt Williams said. Acquired from the Detroit during the offseasonTigers this off-season, Fister was hoping to be ready for the April 6 game at home against Atlanta. Williams said that is uncertain. "He came back fairly quickly from the elbow inflammation," Williams said. "Its a little early to tell right now."

Not a chance. After letting the seemingly comfortable lead dwindle to a single point in the closing seconds, Syracuse squeezed past Maryland 57-55 on Monday to end a two-game losing streak. It was another close call for the Orange (26-2, 13-2 Atlantic Coast Conference), whose previous four games were decided by a total of 12 points. "Were in a lot of these games," coach Jim Boeheim said. "For the most part weve made good plays at the end of them, and thats why we are where we are. Were not overpowering too many people, I can promise you that." Syracuse led 51-39 with 5:45 left but allowed Maryland to close to 56-55 with 47 seconds remaining. After C.J. Fair missed a jumper for the Orange, Baye Moussa Keita blocked a driving layup by Nick Faust to keep Syracuse in front. "I thought Nick got fouled and the replay showed that," Maryland coach Mark Turgeon said. "Its been that type of year for us." Trevor Cooney was fouled and made one of two free throws with four seconds to go before Marylands Seth Allens off-balance shot bounded off the back of the rim as the buzzer sounded. Tyler Ennis scored 20 points and Fair had 17 to help Boeheim secure his 946th career victory. Like many of the previous ones during Syracuses first season in the ACC, this was not easy. "How many we played in the league now? Weve had one that wasnt close," Boeheim said. "This was the game we were most ahead of in all except two. This has been how weve played since the league started. We were actually ahead, which we probably werent used to." After opening the season with 25 straight wins, Syracuse dropped successive games to Boston College and Duke to lose its stature as the nations top-ranked team. Saturdays game at Duke was decided by a pivotal call in the final seconds that caused Boeheim to storm the court, receive two technical fouls and an automatic ejection. In this one, Boeheim was relatively calm on the sideline as the Orange forced 18 turnovers and limited Maryland (15-13, 7-8) to 35 per cent shooting. The coach took exception to Turgeons claim that Faust was fouled on his drive to the hoop. "They shot 27 free throws. If anybodys going to complain about the officiating, Im going to complaain," Boeheim said.dddddddddddd "If they didnt turn it over 18 times, they wouldnt have to worry about that." Syracuse finished the game without forward Jerami Grant, who hurt his back after making two baskets in 13 minutes. "It was a really big win for us," Ennis said. "We played without Jerami for the second half, which kind of hurt us, but I thought everybody that came in really stepped up." Including Fair, who went 8 for 17 from the field and grabbed nine rebounds. "This is definitely a big win. It mightve been the biggest win of the season so far," Fair said. "That game to break your losing streak is always like the hardest. Because youre so anxious and you want that game so bad that sometimes it can go bad for you." Allen scored 22 points for the Terps. He was 6 for 9 from beyond the arc, but his teammates combined to go 2 for 13. It was the first sellout of the season at Maryland, which does not have traditional rivals Duke or North Carolina on the home schedule during its final season in the ACC. "I think late we got stops," Allen said, "and you know the crowd got us into it, it kept us going." The crowd of 17,950 lost much of its enthusiasm during a stretch in which the Terrapins went scoreless for nearly 5 minutes in the second half while Syracuse upped its lead to double figures. Ennis, a 6-foot-2 freshman, made a three-pointer and two baskets in an 8-2 spree that put Syracuse up 42-30. After the Terps closed to 44-37, Michael Gbinije popped a 3, Faust botched a dunk on the other end and Ennis hit a jumper for a 49-37 lead. It barely held up. Syracuse shot 50 per cent and Ennis drilled a three-pointer just before the buzzer for a 32-24 halftime advantage. After a steal by Dez Wells set up a dunk by Charles Mitchell to put Maryland ahead 5-3, the Orange got four points apiece from Fair and Grant in a 15-3 run that made it 18-8. At that point, Syracuse was 8 for 12 from the field and the Terrapins were 3 for 13. A three-pointer by Allen capped a 9-2 spurt that got Maryland to 20-17 before the Orange rattled off three straight baskets. The Terrapins were still in it, though, despite missing 12 of 17 shots and committing nine turnovers. With 4:55 left, Fair picked up his third foul and hit the bench for the remainder of the half after scoring 10 points on 5-for-7 shooting. ' ' '
