This was the Phillies version of the game the Mets played on Sunday.
Everything went wrong for the Phillies. Their defense was awful. Glad we snapped their 9-game winning streak, their longest in 15 years.
In the first three innings the Mets scored ten runs, all 9 guys scored and 8 of them got hits.
Big double for Tom Glavine who is now batting .500 (6-12) this season.
Then Reyes hit a home run. Those first three innings were awesome.
Not much else to talk about it in this game.
Great play be Wright on the ball that hit the base.
Good to see Heath Bell back on the mound. I always liked him and thought he had the potential to be a good middle reliever. I hope he can pitch well and become an option for the 7th and 8th, so that Heilman can go to the rotation.
The Mets have homered in 14 straight games.
Today's forecast for Philadelphia says weather early in the afternoon and again around game time. We may not get the chance to take this series, but an off-day would allow us to skip Jeremi Gonzalez.
I wonder if Stubborn Willie would allow Pedro to pitch on his regular rest and skip Gonzalez. Even if there isn't a rain out I hope he does because I need Pedro to pitch Sunday so that he can pitch Friday night against the Yankees.

Since I'm a bum this week, I went to the game last night. Awesome stadium. And they have two authentic cheesesteak franchises on site, including Rick's, which is owned by the grandson of the Pat's guy. Good stuff.
