LONDON -- Lukas Podolski scored twice as Arsenal came from a goal down to beat West Ham 3-1 in the Premier League on Tuesday and provisionally reclaim the last Champions League spot. Arsenal trailed to Matthew Jarvis 40th-minute opener, but Podolski equalized before the break and Arsenal dominated the second half. Olivier Giroud made amends for an earlier miss by showing off a delicate touch in the area to put Arsenal ahead in the 55th and Podolski finished off the win with another clinical strike in the 78th. Arsenal leapfrogged Everton into fourth place, although the Merseyside club is only one point behind with a game in hand. "It was a hard-fought win, but a very, very important one," Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said. "The key was (to score) just before halftime. In the second half we controlled well the game." Coming off their penalty-shootout win against Wigan in the FA Cup semifinals on Saturday, Arsenal looked sluggish at the start. West Ham was the better team for the first 30 minutes, but when the opening goal came it was against the run of play following a period of sustained Arsenal pressure. Kim Kallstrom, making his first start for Arsenal since joining on loan in January, lost track of Antonio Nocerino down the right flank as the West Ham player broke into the area. Nocerinos shot was stopped by Wojciech Szczesny, but Jarvis was there to head in the rebound in a goalmouth scramble. Jarvis then could have earned a penalty shortly afterward when Bacary Sagna clearly clipped his legs in the area, but he stayed on his feet and the referee waved play on. "Im grateful for that," Wenger said about Jarvis staying on his feet. "I dont think it was a penalty, but he touched him. Can you be too honest? Ill leave you that judgement." West Ham manager Sam Allardyce certainly thought so. "The facts are that when you stay on your feet the referees dont give penalties," Allardyce said. "When theres contact, you have to go down and make the referees mind up for him. Theres no reward for honesty." Arsenal responded shortly thereafter as Santi Cazorla found Podolski in the area and the Germany forward took one touch to create space before slotting a clinical finish inside the far post. Before that, Giroud had wasted Arsenals two best chances as the France striker couldnt make contact with Podolskis cross in the 14th, and then wasted a one-on-one opportunity in the 30th. Cazorla picked out Giroud that time as well, but the Frenchman went for finesse rather than power, trying to chip the ball with the outside of his boot past Adrian, but the goalkeeper palmed it away. Giroud made no mistake the next time, however, after Thomas Vermaelen picked him out with a long ball into the area. Giroud downed it with a perfect first touch and then slotted a shot between Adrians legs to put the hosts up for good. Arsenal kept pressing and the third goal came after Giroud broke down the left and sent a high pass in toward substitute Aaron Ramsey, who picked out Podolski with a header and the German blasted a high shot into the net. "Hes a fantastic finisher," Wenger said of Podolski. "The one you want to have a chance is him." New York Islanders Shop Free Shipping .

Reyes, out since opening day with a strained left hamstring, ran sprints in the outfield in Baltimore and then along the perimeter of the infield dirt on Friday afternoon. So, hows Reyes feeling? "Good," he said. "This is the first time that Ive run like that in a little while. I feel good. Hopefully, (on Saturday) I run the bases a little bit and see how I feel after that." Reyes has a history of hamstring problems but, until this spring, nothing recent. While with the Mets, he missed most of 2009 with a torn right hamstring and then in 2011 spent two different stints on the disabled list with a left hamstring strain. "Its still a little bit in my mind," said Reyes. "When you have a hamstring injury its going to be in your mind for a little while but after you do your first full sprints everything is going to come back.dddddddddddd" If Reyes wakes up on Saturday feeling good, hell run the bases before the game. If he clears that hurdle, a minor league rehabilitation assignment will be scheduled. "Hell head out in the next few days," said manager John Gibbons. The Blue Jays havent yet decided whether Reyes will play at Triple-A Buffalo or be shipped down to Single-A Dunedin. Mother Nature will have her say. "If the weathers going to turn to crap in Buffalo, you dont want to send him there," said Gibbons. Reyes is eligible to come off the disabled list on Wednesday, when the Blue Jays are scheduled to play the second game of a three-game set against the Twins in Minneapolis.
