Mets lose but still winning on road

The Mets had the go ahead run at the plate last night but Willie Harris did a Carlos Beltran impression by striking out on a breaking pitch in the 9th with the bases loaded.  The Mets couldn't muster anything in the game until the 9th inning. David Wright had 2 hits in the loss. 1 more game of 2 hits and he ties Steve Hendu Henderson's record of consecutive games with multiple hits. 

The Mets are 7 games over 500 on the road at 33-26 and have lost only 3 on this road trip while winning 9. They have the most win on the road in the majors. Now if they can just turn around how they do at home. There 22 wins at home rank above only the Astros and the Padres in the National League.

Mets will try for a series win against the Nationals today with Niese who has 10 wins so far.
