Hot Mets At Citifield Today, Ecuador & Chile To Play August 15th

The Mets are riding high after defeating their hated rivals (Phillies) 11-1 last night.


Daniel Murphy was a homerun shy of the cycle, and Mets slighted All Star David Wright moved past former Mets 3B Howard Johnson, into third place on the Mets all time HR list with 193. Wright trails only Mike Piazza (220) and Darryl Strawberry (252) for all time HR's as a Met. Wright also became the first Mets player to have double digit HR's in nine different seasons.

It has also been announced that on August 15th Citi Field will host a soccer game between Ecuador and Chile. One can only wonder if it will be as exciting as this all time great soccer match:
