It's been an amazing run for the New York Mets (at least New Yorkers can be proud of one team this year). I'm not saying I think they're going to lose the NLCS, it's just been a pleasant, memorable journey for a franchise that used to be ridiculed and lived under the shadow of the Braves...not anymore. Luck would have it that the Cardinals and Mets are notched at 3 games a pieces and play the deciding Game 7 tonight in New York. Yesterday's hero was Jose Reyes who led the game off with a solo homer. He went 3-for-4 with a RBI. Shawn Green also added 2 hits for good measure and help the Mets complete a 4-2 victory over St. Louis.
Starter John Maine pitched a good game, going 5 innings while allowing zero runs and striking out 5 batters. As crappy as the Cards played down the stretch of the regular season I'm surprised the series has gone to a Game 7. The Mets made easy work of the Dodgers in the first round of the playoffs, sweeping them 3-0. Tonight they'll need timely hitting from stars, Carlos Beltran, Carlos Delgado, and David Wright. Oliver Perez, who won Game 2 will take the mound against Jeff Suppan. This move by Mets' manager, Willie Randolph may backfire since Perez is 3-13 in the regular season and not known for pitching past 6 innings. Still I wish them the best, go Mets!
