Left field is the Bermuda triangle


As Gary and Ron started to settle in for the game they did not have to wait long before something happened in the void of outfield that is being called the Bermuda triangle. Gary Sheffield muffed a fly ball on the first play of the game that eventually scored and would be the only run that the guy that looked like John Maine gave up. With Murphy on the bench I am sure he said see its not me there is something out there. Even manager Jerry Manuel in his post game press conference mentioned that he would check it out on Tuesday .

I have to say it was nice not to see a lead be chipped away for once. The Mets bullpen did a fine job but can J J Putz take any more time when he is out there? He can give Steve Trachsel a run for his money when it comes to time between pitches. Putz did not seem to have his trademark stuff but did finally record 3 outs.

Of course since He is hitting over.300 Luis Castillo needed a rest so he pulled up lame with back spasms in the 4th inning legging out a hit. Try hitting the ball out of the infield so you do not have to run so hard Luis!

Well David Wright actually hit the ball to right center for a rbi single and then launched one to the wall that Cody Ross just missed for a triple. Good job Mr Wright! You are the key in this lineup.


Gary Sheffield got rob by Cody Ross on a great play . Check out Cody Ross's grab of Gary Sheffield scorcher Sheff seems to be really getting some nice swings on the ball.
Kudos to Omir Santos for his first home run a grand slam. Welcome to NY!
