Rodney

Can we just review? The guy had yielded one run in 30 2/3 innings all season. The Mets go out there and score two runs in a single frame to win it.

Opposing hitters had been batting .124 against him. One-twenty-four!

How great not only to beat the Marlins, but the throw cold water on the hope represented by their big mid-season acquisition.

Try as he might, he will never be José Valverde.

Made him look much more Rodney Allen Rippy [fimg=200:180uysll]http://www.nndb.com/people/864/000025789/rodney-1972-sm.jpg[/fimg:180uysll] than James Rodney Richards [fimg=169:180uysll]http://www.astrosdaily.com/files/team/richard/01richard.jpg[/fimg:180uysll]
