Mets and Mike Pelfrey beat Phillies

Cole Hamels didnt have his location and Mike Pelfrey was able to get out of a bases loaded jam in the 6th as the Mets beat the Phillies 4-2.

Pelfrey for 5 innings basically cruised but ran into trouble in the 6th. He was able to get out of it with getting Jimmy Rollins to pop up.

The Mets seem to have Hamels number since he is 0-4 since he beat the Mets in first start against them . He had trouble locating his fastball as the Mets seem to unleash on it.

Big Pelf was slightly annoyed after getting hit by a pitch sneering and jabbering at Hamels as he walked to first.

Pelf did a good job keeping on point. He seemed focused and now has put 2 decent starts back to back He started the game by pitching inside to the Phills lefty hitters.

Jeff Franceour had 3 hits and Fernando Tatis lost a home run in the vast valley of right center field and had to settle for a triple.

The bullpen including Feliciano and Stokes held the Phillies in check. Of course K Rod had to make it interesting in the 9th but with men on first and 3rd he struck out Utley and Ryan Howard
