It was not pretty but the Mets were able to beat the Braves tonight 9-5 and move back into first since the Phillies lost a slug fest to the streaking Marlins 14-8. The game started out great with Jose Reyes hitting a home run in the 1st innnig. David Wright collected 2 hits and had a key rbi double and a 2 out rbi single. He did have a couple of hiccups in the field. This was a pretty sloppy game on both sides.
Ollie Perez pitched 6 innings and gave up 4 runs. The Mets used 4 relievers in the 7 th inning . Nelson Figueroa, Ricardo Rincon, Aaron Heilman and Pedro Feliciano. Rincon and Heilman got key strikeouts in the 7th innning while the rubber armed Feliciano got the last out of the 7th which kept the score tied at that point.
The Mets then broke out with 4 runs in the 8th .
Chekc out the Box score for the game here
Brian Stokes had his fastball up to 96 mph and after a lead off single to Jeff Franceour retired the side in the 8th and the 9th. With no Drama!!! .
The Mets are back in first with the Phillies losing and the Brewers got slammed by the Reds 11-2 dropping them 2 behind the Phillies now in the Wild Card.
