Box Score

3 Standout Performances:

  1. Jason Bay actually had a quality-ish game going 3 for 4 with an RBI single.
  2. Lucas Duda had only 1 hit which was a clutch RBI single to give the Mets the lead.
  3. David Wright hit 2 doubles tonight while scoring a run.

Chris Capuano really struggled tonight being lucky that he gave up 2 runs in his start throwing 100 pitches in 5 innings. It was a very bad start, but he did a great job fighting through it.

Jason Bay got lucky tonight. He got an RBI hit off the pitcher, a swinging bunt, and one solid single. Whatever works for you Jason, whatever works man…

Jose Reyes got 2 lucky hits tonight, but has still not been his first half self as of yet.

The Dude (Lucas Duda) was so clutch tonight with his single to give the Mets the lead. I have a feeling he might win the 2012 job this month.

Grade for the Game: B

 

Will Ike Davis have a Sophomore Slump?

The question that comes along with all rookies after a good first year is, will they have a sophomore slump? With Ike, I say no and that is not just being the optimistic person that I am. Ike said at the end of last year that he never really was hot last year. He never went on one of the streaks he claims to be capable of. Also, remember that eephus like curveball of Vicente Padilla that Ike hit for a homer? Remember how cold he was after that? He basically already had his “Sophomore Slump” it just came during his first year. I expect only the best from Ike.
