Mets limit mental mistakes and take series from Nationals.

Thankfully we didn’t have Angel Pagan being thrown out for a mental lapse on the bases. The Mets were able to hang on and win after Brian Stokes gave up 2 runs in the 9th and K Rod came in and got a 1 out save yesterday as the Mets won 6-2 and took 2 out of 3 from the Nationals.

Of course this is the Nationals the worst team in the National league. John Maine had another bright outing pitching 5 innings and giving up no runs. He has pitched 8 innings and has allowed 1 run over that time.

Does Valez have some arm at short? He through out runners from the outfield grass and has been hitting with some authority lately. He tripled in 2 runs late in the game and has raised his average to around .250.

Daniel Murphy now has more extra base hits then David Wright.

The Mets go against the Braves tough pitching tonight.
