The road trip continues, as the Mets start a stretch in Philly against oddly enough, the Phillies. Johan Santana will take the mound, against JA Happ . Happ is making his first start of the season and second career against the Mets.

Keys to the game:

Keep on Hitting: The Mets offense found its spark on the road in St Louis, can it maintain it in the hitter friendly confines of Tiny Little Philly Park? One would hope so, since a double anywhere else lands in the parking lot here.

Remember that its their Ace. Johan hasn’t won a game in awhile. We did trade away the farm and all, so maybe we can give him some run support, maybe a nice day from the bullpen. Try not to commit too many errors and all. And by some run support, I mean a lot. Lets face it, he gives up the longball and he’s in a longball stadium. Win it for Johan.

Game time is 7:05, catch it on SNY, listen to it on WFAN, and talk about it in the Hot Foot Bleachers, where we’ll be discussing the game, Mets baseball, and fireworks safety on the internet.
