Box Score

3 Standout Performances:

  1. Chris Schwinden went 6 innings let up 6 hits, 3 runs, 2 walks, and 5 strikeouts.
  2. Willie Harris went 3 for 4 with his 2nd home run of the season.
  3. Josh Satin got his first career RBIs with a 2 run double.

Chris Schwinden got into bad luck tonight. He deserved his first career win with his outing today but, I guess the stars were just not alligned for him tonight. Don’t worry however, he did get his first career hit.

Congrats to Josh Satin on his first career RBIs. Hopefully he can form to become a quality run producer.

Although he was tagged with the loss tonight, I still love Daniel Herrera but I don’t know why.

3 Standout Performances:

  1. David Wright went 3 for 4 with a 2 run homer.
  2. Bobby Parnell gave up 3 hits and 2 runs in an inning.
  3. Jason Bay hit an RBI single.

Gee really settled down after a rough start. His control was rough, but he fought through it to get through the game pitching alright.

David Wright came back on fire. He had 6 hits in this 3 game series against the Marlins including a go-ahead homer tonight.

Jose Reyes…..Every day.

Bobby Parnell was afraid to throw his slider today. He threw all fastballs and got hit very hard today.

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.

3 Standout Performances:

  1. Angel Pagan went 2 for 4 with 2 RBI singles.
  2. Ronny Paulino had 2 doubles and an RBI.
  3. Capuano gave up 3 runs(2 earned) on 8 hits over 6 innings. He walked 3 and struck out 5.

You could tell the team felt the pressure from that loss last night. They just didn’t look the same as they did on that roadtrip. Hopefully, that will be gone by tomorrow.

Ronny Paulino has hit great all year long, he drove 2 doubles today, one in the gap and one down the line. He has been great so far this year.

Pagan is a different hitter since his return from the DL.

I am making no excuses, but Jordan Walden (the Angels closer) has filthy stuff. That slider of his is nearly unhittable. I tip my hat to him.

This team has so much more fight that we did last year.

By the Numbers:

  • Mike Pelfrey went 7 innings, let up 4 hits, 2 runs, 0 walks, and 6 strikeouts.
  • Jose Reyes was hitless with a sac fly.
  • Daniel Murphy had 2 hits and is now hitting .305 on the year.
  • Tejada and Duda had a hit each.
  • Byrdak walked in the 3rd run with the bases loaded.

Mike Pelfrey was so good tonight, he retired 21 of his final 22 batters after giving up 3 hits to the first 3 batters of the game. He really settled down only giving up 1 homer to Brandon Wood.

Jose Reyes was robbed of a hit on his Sac fly, Duda ran the Mets out of the inning as he was doubled off first.This stopped the rally the Mets had going only resulting in 1 run for the inning.

Daniel Murphy just keeps hitting, and hitting, and hitting.

Tejada got another hit and made another great defensive play tonight, he is really playing well for the team.

By the Numbers:

  • Dickey started and threw a complete game loss giving up 3 runs on 8 hits. He walked 2 and struck out 4.
  • Jose Reyes had ANOTHER multi-hit game as did Ruben Tejada.
  • Beltran and Murphy had RBI hits.
  • Lucas Duda hit a double.
  • Bay and Paulino had a hit each.

Dickey did not deserve the loss that he got tonight. He gave the bullpen a night off and really only deserved to give up 1 earned run. His year ERA is now below 4.

Jose Reyes gets multi-hit games every night it seems.

Bay actually got a hit! He is really messed up right now though.

Lucas Duda only had 1 hit, but he is killing the ball since his re-call.

I am now a believer in the hitter that Ruben Tejada can be. Really doing a good job for this team.

By the Numbers:

  • R.A. Dickey went 7 2/3 strong innings giving up 5 hits, 3 runs, 2 walks, and 10 strikeouts. Through 7 he had allowed 2 hits 0 runs and struck out 9.
  • Pagan and Murphy had 2 hits each today.
  • Jason Bay had an RBI single in the first inning, however the ball went 40 ft.
  • Bobby Parnell struggled in his return giving up 2 runs in 2/3 of an inning.
  • The bottom 4 of the lineup went hitless tonight.

Dickey was so much better than his line tonight. He did not at all deserve the loss tonight. 2 hits thorough 7 innings was just spectacular and he struck out a career high 10 batters. This looks like the Dickey from 2010.

Parnell still let down the Mets tonight, I do not know what is wrong with him. He has good stuff but he is a thrower not a pitcher.

It is really great to see Pagan back into form after returning from the DL. He is a huge part to this team.

This team can not hit a homer anymore.

Mets Post Game: Mets 5, Giants 2

The Numbers:

  • Big Pelf started for the Mets and had his longest outing of the year of 7 2/3 4 hits, 2 runs, (1 earned), 2 walks, and 5 strikeouts.
  • Carlos Beltran went 1 for 4 with a 2 run homer.
  • Jose Reyes went 1 for 4 with a 2 run triple.
  • Wright, Bay, and Ike also had hits.
  • K-Rod shut the door with a very shaky 4 out save.

Mike Pelfrey actually looked like a legitimate major league baseball pitcher today as he worked through the Giant lineup with ease. He had some shaky innings but got out of them nearly unharmed. I liked what I saw today.

Throwback Beltran so far this year. He has already hit 6 homers and is hitting nearly .300 on the year.

K-Rod almost killed me…again.

It seems the Mets only win when Jason Bay comes back from a stint. Whether it is off the DL or paternity list, they look different with him.

Mets Post Game: Giants 7, Mets 6 F/10

The Numbers:

  • R.A. Dickey pitched 6 ok innings tonight and let up 7 hits, 5 runs, 1 walk, and 1 strikeout.
  • Jose Reyes went 3 for 3 with 3 walks, a double, and an RBI.
  • Gee and Izzy got through the 7th and 8th While K-Rod got out of a 1st and 3rd 0 out jam unharmed in the 9th.
  • Buchholz gave up the go ahead homer in the 10th to Aubrey Huff.
  • Carlos Beltran went 2 for 4 with a 3 run homer.
  • Ike Davis went 1 for 4 with a 2 run homer.
  • Wright and Pridie had a hit each while Thole got 3 hits.

This was a game that the Mets should have won. They had bases loaded and 1 out in the bottom of the 9th and grounded into a double play. Clearly a shame.

Jose Reyes was spectacular getting on base 6 straight times today. If he can play like that, Sandy will surely try and resign him.

Ike Davis and Carlos Beltran both hit rockets, Carlos’ was a liner, and Ike’s was normal for him…a bomb.

R.A. Dickey looked great through 3, but those 4th and 5th innings where he gave up 6 runs they just killed him. The Giants just hit everything up the middle.

Even with the homer, the bullpen still pitched very well.

The Numbers:

  • R.A. Dickey started today and went 8 innings, let up 8 hits, 4 runs, 2 walks, and 4 strikeouts.
  • Izzy pitched a hitless inning.
  • Daniel Murphy had 3 hits and tied the game with a go ahead 2-run homer.
  • Reyes had 4 hits and a run scored tonight.
  • Beltran had 3 hits, 2 doubles, and an RBI.
  • Ike and Harris each had a hit.

R.A. Dickey was outstanding—he’s the first pitcher of the year to pitch through 8. He gave a tired bullpen the night off.

Pagan tried to score on a weak wild pitch and would have been safe if he had slid correctly.

The Thole play confused me badly. Why would Reyes be off the bag if the ball was popped up? I mean come on, you’re not going to go anywhere. Get back to the bag and we might win this game.

Wright is in a 0 for 18 slump.

Beltran is swinging a red hot bat.

As Keith Hernandez said, “This is like a horror movie!”
