Sunday nights game against the Phillies was huge for the Mets. Carlos Delgado and Johan Santana came though in the clutch! It looked like the Phillies were going to get off to a big start in the first inning, but Santana shut the door and only allowed one run!
Then, the turning point had to be Charlie Samuel arguing a catcher's interference call that allowed David Wright to go to first! He got himself thrown out of the game. What on earth was he arguing about? and enough to get himself thrown out? was it worth it Charlie? It seemed to incite the crowd which in turn seemed to get the Mets going. Hits by the Carlos' put the Mets up 3-1 and they never looked back. The Phillies got to 3-2 but Carlos Delgado hit two monster home runs and made it 5-2. Eventually each team go another run for a final of 6-3. The bullpen again looked great! The continue to do a great job without Billy Wagner (now thats another story). It looks like it will be bullpen by committee for the rest of the year? Let's hope Aaron Heilman is not part of that mix!
Two games coming up against the Nats this week? These are games the Mets have to win. No ifs ands or buts!
