The Mets lost in a rout to the Nats tonight by a score of 13-4. Mike Pelfrey did not throw one of his better outings, allowing 7 runs 6 earned in 5.2 innings. The Bullpen was again awful tonight, allowing 6 runs in 4.1 innings. Dave Williams and Guillermo Mota allowed 3 runs each. On a side note, Moises Alou extended his hitting streak to 28 games.

It may show in the boxscore that Pelfrey did not pitch well, but for the first 4 innings, he pitched pretty well. It all came crumbling down on him when Austin Kearns hit a 3 run 2 out home run to make it 5-0 Nats.  Mota again allowed several runs after getting the first 2 outs. Dave Williams capped it all off, allowing a homer to Ryan Langerhans.. yes..you read that right. As for Alou, if hes willing to come back, pick up that option NOW.

Tommy Glavine will look to get back on track tomorrow at 7:10 EST.

The Mets try to bounce back from a deflating loss last night in the 2nd game of a 3 game set against the Phillies this afternoon. The Pitchers will be Pedro Martinez (2-0 1.80) and Kyle Lohse (6-12 4.58). Pedro will be looking for his 3rd win in as many starts.

1B Green
C Lo Duca
RF Milledge
P Pedro

Notes:

David Wright is 1 home run away from becoming a member of the 30-30 club.

Paul Lo Duca is back in there after being ejected last night.

LETS GO METS!

The Mets took a rubber game for the first time this year vs the Braves,  by a score of 4-3 tonight. Guillermo Mota (2-1) undeservedly got the win, allowing 2 base runners to score in the 8th inning to tie the game. The Mets got the lead right back in the 8th off a Carlos Beltran single, stolen base, advance to 3rd on a throw to 1st, and a single by Shawn Green.

Gotta Love Beltran aggressive baserunning, and Green making solid contact to win it.

Notes from the Game:

Marlon Anderson added a Solo Shot in the 5th off John Smoltz.

Moises Alou extended his hitting streak to 17 games.

John Maine pitched 6 innings of 1 run ball.

Shawn Green still owns Mr. Smoltz.

Guillermo Mota is still garbage.

Billy Wagner went 1-2-3 in the 9th for his 34th save.

The Mets released Minor League pitcher Marcos Carvajal, and was claimed off waivers by the Marlins.

I heard in the spring that he might have had some potential, but obviously Omar and company did not see that happeneing.

According to SI.com, Jay Gibbons of the Baltimore Orioles received HGH and Steroids in 2005 from a Florida Pharmacy.

Its all coming out now, first Ankiel, Glaus, and now Gibbons. Stay Tuned.

With his Homer in todays game, David Wright is now only 3 homers shy of the 30-30 club.  For a guy who had never hit 30 homers in his career, or had ever reached 25 Stolen Bases, Id say its a pretty big accomplishment for him. Keep it up Dave.
