I guess I wasn't clear - I had plans tonight, but not at the game. I caught the awful 7th inning on TV, unfortunately - why was Mota (still) in there? Why can't Green catch the damn ball? Obviously happy with the way the Mets handled Carpenter, but it would be pretty disheartening for the Mets to blow a 2 run lead in the 7th at Shea. The Mets need this game. Nice K for Heilman.
Valentin almost falls down on the throw (?), but Heilman gets through it. Mets need to score right now.
he definitly over did it with mota... i mean with got roberto hernandez in the bullpen...what the hell
If we lose this game I have a bad feeling for the rest of the series, honestly even with a win thanks to Mota the Mets are far from wrapping this up. If Mota doesn't meltdown and the Mets go on to win this series is over. These next 2 innings are now must innnings for the Mets. The series might be won and lost in these next 6 batters. And of course we'll start out with an out too
I know that he signed a two year contract, but can we please hope that we're seeing the last of Julio Franco now?
