What a difference a home stand makes. The Mets behind 6 innings from Santana and yes a home run from Jason Bay and a clutch 2 rbi single by every ones Met who they wanted traded Luis Castillo beat the hapless Dodgers 4-0 in Game 1
The old Ollie was back for game 2 who only lasted 3 and 2/3 innings . That didnt matter since the Mets scored 3 in the first and then just lit up the Dodgers bullpen. David Wright had a bases loaded triple while Ike Davis plated a couple with a double as the Mets beat the Dodgers 10-5 in the night cap.
Takahashi had another great relief outing pitching 3 and 1/3 innings while giving up 1 run and striking out 5
The Mets are 8-1 on this homestand and have a 6 game winning streak heading into Wednesday's contest with the Dodgers.
If the Phillies lose out west to the Giants the Mets and Phillies will be tied for 1st place in the division.
