For a recap and boxscore, go to SNY.
…how happy is Nelson Figueroa right now…i can’t even imagine…in his long-awaited, first start for the Mets, he allowed two runs and two hits while striking out six in six innings…he even beat out a bunt for a base hit…when the game ended, the smile on his face said it all…be proud, he’s one of us…
…by the way, i love that he always pitches from the stretch…
…Rual Casanova drove in a run, and Shea Stadium did not blast Oh Casanova by Klymaxx…i’m so disappointed…
…in five appearances so far this season, Joe Smith has allowed just one run to score…
…phew, Aaron Heilman, who, one night after blowing a lead to the Phillies, rebounded to set all three batters down in the eighth inning…again, phew…
…i would like to have seen the Mets tack on a few more runs in the fourth, despite scoring the three that they did…with the bases loaded, and the chance to put the game away, Jose Reyes grounded out to end the inning…
…in the seventh, once again, Angel Pagan delivered with an RBI single extending the team’s lead by two runs…the guy just keeps on ticking…he plays alert and aggressive, and i like it…
…Carlos Beltran ran down a deep, deep pop up in the right-center field gap, softly catching the ball with a basket catch, to end a small rally in the sixth…nice grab…
