Box Score

3 Standout Performances:

  1. Jason Bay delivered the walk-off single in the 10th inning, his 2nd hit of the day.
  2. Ronny Paulino hit a pinch hit RBI single to tie the game against Rivera in the 9th.
  3. Dickey pitched 5 innings and left with a glut strain after 5 innings.

What a huge win for the Mets today, they got a blown save out of Mariano Rivera and then won the game in the 10th. This is exactly what the Mets needed after 2 tough losses to the Yanks. Great way to end interleague play for the season.

I hope Jason bay can finish this season as hot as he was against the American League. It was real good to see Jason get the hit today.

Ronny Paulino is a great catcher. A sensational signing by Alderson.

Grade for the Game: A

Box Score

3 Standout Performances:

  1. Jason Bay went 3 for 4 with 3 singes.
  2. Manny Acosta gave up 4 runs in less than 2 innings.
  3. Ruben Tejada had an RBI single.

Pelfrey wasn’t terrible toinght, he gave up 3 of his runs in the first and then settled down a little bit walking only 2 on the night. He has really turned his season around from his rough start early in the year.

It was really good to see Jason Bay do very well again. Maybe it is just facing AL pitchers again. Remember he hit a homer (almost 2) against CLE earlier in the year and hit 2 against NYY last season. Very strange if you ask me.

Manny Acosta is simply a bad pitcher, no other way to say it.

Grade for the Game: C

Box Score

3 Standout Performances:

  1. Jason Bay went 3 for 3 with a walk, triple, and Homer. He almost had 2 homers, but video review showed the ball hitting off Crisps glove, not the wall in center.
  2. Dillon Gee had no control tonight going 4 innings, letting up 4 runs, and walked 6.
  3. Jose Reyes went 0 for 5 with 5 flyballs.

Dillon Gee just could not throw a strike tonight. He only gave up 3 hits, just a ton of walks.This was his first bad start of the year.

The Mets walked 2 with the bases loaded. That is simply unacceptable…strikes are a MUST in today’s game.

Jason Bay could have broken out of his rut today. 3 hits and almost 2 home runs. Hopefully this will jumpstart his season for the Mets.

Grade for the Game: B-

Changing the post game report for hopefully the last time. Hopefully this will give me more time for opinion and less stat oriented recaps. With the old format I felt like I was typing the box score which took too much time when it could just be linked in.  Tell me if you like it or not.

3 standout performances:

  1. R.A. Dickey struggled with his control all night giving up 6 runs (4 earned) on 6 hits while he walked 3 and struck out 4. His outing only lasted 4 innings.
  2. Jason Bay had 2 hits tonight including an RBI single.
  3. Scott Hairston had 2 hits including a game tying 3 run homer.

HONERABLE MEANTION: Jose Reyes went 3 for 6 with a triple and a steal.

Dickey had a lot of trouble with his knuckler tonight. He could not control where it went and that is how he got into 3 earned runs. He got into a 3-0 count with 3 knucklers on Chipper and he teed off on a fastball.

Bay had a good game tonight, he got a nice RBI hit through the right side and who knows, this could get him back on track.

That was a huge homer by Hairston tonight, got this team back in the game when they were down by 3.

You can’t be mad at K-Rod for the blown save, he hadn’t blown one since the second game of the season. He can have this one..I give him 0 blame for this one based on his great outings in save situations.

I know the bad play by Duda set the entire end of the game up, but who could  place full blame  for the game on him? I mean you can blame him because he made a mistake, but this was his 5th or so career start at first base. He is not used to what plays he can and can not make. I know he made 200 or so starts at first in the minors but, the major league games go so much faster he was trying to over compensate because of the fast runner going to first. His play did not set me off.

Now for Carrasco…oh no. This could get ugly. The first pitch to Heyward, first of all, should have been crushed, we got lucky on that swingthrough. He should have pitched around Heyward to pitch to the nobody third baseman who luckily hit a homer off K-Rod in Citi Field earlier. Now for the balk, It was terrible to balk in that situation. (No Duh!) You can’t flinch like that on the mound in that situation and a veteran like Carrasco should know that.

Grade for the Game: C+
