Brewers 6 Mets 5

Another horrible loss. The bullpen is falling apart. This is the second straight series loss after having lost only one series for the first month and change. The Mets lead in the division stands at only one game heading into 3-game series against the Cardinals and the Yankees. I see a bad moon rising.

Some more bad trends:
Duaner Sanchez gave up a run for the third straight appearance.
Pedro got a no-decision in his third straight start.
David Wright makes errors at the wrong time.
Jose Valentin is the best player on the team right now.

Pedro pitched just well enough to lose. He got a couple lucky breaks from the Brewers' defense that prevented him from losing this game. He gives up homers at the wrong time and too often right after the Mets have just scored.

Weeks error and the dropped ball by Fielder let this game last much longer than it should have. Just another horrible game.

The pitching staff gave up 23 runs in this series. The bullpen got killed. Big trouble if this doesn't improve. The pitching has been bad and the lack of timely hitting is once again killing them. I'm very upset right now.
