Jorge Sosa delivers another great start. Eight innings, 5 strikeouts, just four hits, and no runs.  You really can't ask for much more, especially from a guy who's supposed to be the bottem of our rotation.  He got some help, a couple great defensive plays from the team. A good barehanded play from Wright.  Two great catches in the outfield by Gomez.  Billy Wagner got back on the horse, after his first blown save since forever ago. He faced three batters, striking out the first two. Sosa gets the win, his sixth, going longer than he has so far as a Met. His ERA is now 2.64.

Mets offense, still a little quiet, but did what it needed to.  Wright and Delgado both hit homeruns for the second straight night. A Delgado sac fly in the 9th scored Gomez for the other Met run. Aside from the two homeruns, all the rest of the Met hits were singles. Paul Lo Duca went 2 for 4 as DH, and Gomez, Beltran and Stache had a hit apeice.

Being that they won, on two homeruns, its hard to complain about the Mets hitting. So the only 'bad' from tonight was an error by Gomez. And being that no one scored on it, and he did make two really great catches, I think we can let him have that rookie mistake.
 

Ricky Ledee went hitless in his first appearance of the season. Hopefully his readjustment to the pro's won't take too long. 

We won a game, so everyone can take a step back from that ledge. Every has a bad few games here and there.
