Well the Mets were able to comeback last night due to there patience at the plate, the fact the Marlins relievers couldn't find the strike zone and a 3rd base ump that gave the Mets a free balk.
The Mets didnt really have much against Nolasco but once he was booted from the mound in the 7th inning the Mets just patiently walked around the bases. Was nuts watching the Marlins pitchers implode like that and it was not the Mets for once.
Tatis tryed to score on a pitch that got away from catcher John Baker withe David Wright at the plate. He was tagged for the 3rd out. Would have been nice to see Wright come through with 2 outs. The Mets with the bases loaded last year hit a paltry .220.
The Mets bullpen didnt help much by giving up 3 runs on 9 hits over 5 innings. Green gave a homer to Uggla in the 7th while Takahashi gave up the winning hit to Ronnie Paulino in the 10th. Of course my favorite Marlin Wes Helms scored the winning run. Will he please retire!! He is always around some important play were the Mets lose!
John Maine had no zip on his fastball . It was clocked at 88MPH. Also any movement on his pitches were all on the same plain. Also too many pitches to the Marlins batters were right down the pipe. There was no one moving Marlins batters feet.
Nice comeback but they lacked that 1 big hit that could have gave them the lead.
