Report: No change to Dickey's one-hitter

Major League Baseball denied the New York Mets' request to have the official scoring changed in Wednesday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays, upholding R.A. Dickey's one-hitter, ESPN New York reported.

The Mets had asked MLB to reverse a scoring decision on B.J. Upton's first-inning infield single, claiming that third baseman David Wright committed an error on the play.

But Joe Torre, MLB's executive vice president for baseball operations, would not change the official scoring of the play on Friday. It would have given Dickey a no-hitter.

Dickey said he was relieved by the decision. He thought that if it had been reversed, there would be more of a focus on the reversal of the decision than on the actual accomplishment of a no-hitter.
