Another Victory

John Maine didn't have his greatest performance of the year today, but after 9 innings of play, the Mets came out on top. After Maine gave up 3 runs in 4.2 innings, Muniz, Schoenweiss (who got credit for the win), Sanchez, and Wagner shut out the on just a single hit.

It is, amazingly, the second straight game in which Mets pitching gave up just 3 hits.

Fernando Tatis was the hero today, with his 2 run homer part of his 3 hit, 4 RBI game.

The final score was 7-3.

Yo. That's very arguable. I could opine that the bullpen was the real hero today.


I guess they were co-heroes.

"I guess they were co-heroes."

Fair enough! On the other hand, perhaps the bullpen was not a hero - it's not a person, it's a group. While they all did quite serviceably, none of the relief pitchers was particularly exceptional.


But, if you want to call them "co-heroes" I suppose that that works for me, too.
