postGame: Yankees 3 Mets 2

by Matthew Cerrone on June 28th, 2008 at 9:32 pm

The Mets (39–41) lost to the Yankees (44–37) by the score of 3 to 2 in Shea Stadium this afternoon, complete with two rain delays.

For a recap, boxscore, stats, etc., go to SNY.tv.

In case you missed it, know that Johan Santana looked great through three innings, but came unglued in the fourth inning, albeit with no help from the ump, letting up two runs; by the way, three of the four people walked by Santana eventually scored today, hell he even had a balk; meanwhile, Andy Pettitte pitched six innings, however he put a ton of runners on base, of course the Mets continue to strand runners in what feels like every inning, including in the fifth inning today, when Jose Reyes got picked up off of second base to end the inning with two runners on and David Wright at the plate; lastly, Carlos Beltran struck out four times; and Carlos Delgado is 0 for 6 since his offensive explosion on Friday afternoon.

The Mets conclude their three-game series with the Yankees tomorrow at 1 pm in Shea Stadium, with Oliver Perez (5-5, 5.29 ERA) facing Darrel Rasner (4-5, 4.50 ERA).
