Pedro Martinez struggles through first inning and Mets cant over come

Well as Mets fan73 as written Pedro is nearing the end of his career and he didn't help his chances tonight with allowing the Braves to score 3 runs in the first inning and the Mets fell to the Braves 4-2.

Pedro helped his cause with a 2 out double that plated 2 runs but it was the only runs the Mets would score tonight. The bullpen for the Mets pitched fine tonight and didn't allow a run after Pedro made it through 6 innings . Bobby Parnell actually pitched 2/3 of an inning in the bottom of the 8th

David Wright had 2 hits tonight but the Mets could only muster 6 hits all night. The Phillies just beat the Marlins 3-2 so now the Mets are in 2nd again and are 2.5 games ahead of the Brewers for the Wild Card with 8 to play. The Mets are behind the Phillies by 1/2 game for the NL East lead.
