Count on it, esp. when Piazza becomes the second* Met in the hall of fame.

If he goes into the Hall with a Met hat on, and he should, your probobly right.

Julio looks decent.

Reyes leads off.....
Who hits for Julio?

[Zvon]

Old man river, and he bloops a single.

Oldest player to hit a bloop single in the history of the game.

This game jumped the shark when Paul "Ideal No. 2 Hitter" LoDuca GIDPed with nobody out in the first inning.

Oh well.

[Guest Bret Sabermetric]

They battled.

[Zvon]

Well, it ends in a split series.
Could have been worse.
But id like to see the Mets take these series against teams like San Diego.

Beltran isnt even available to pinch hit?

or when the Mets pulled to within 5-4 and had the bases loaded and someone struck out on all fastballs.

I saw that, and thought that, but the grand slam off Zamby was the slammer.

available to hit but not play CF which ended up ok because he'd have been used for Chavez with 2 on when Chavez ended up singling.

Listened to some of the San Diego radio broadcast of this one. They referred to the top of the ninth as "Trevor Time." Not only that, "Trevor Time" was sponsored.
