I prefer that Niese makes the errors himself so he has no one to blame but himself. I don't want to see him getting all pouty tonight. Bad read Flores. Campbell....finally...THANK YOU. 2-1 Mets
Tell you one thing, on those shots of Cuddy in the dugout, he looks like he hasn't slept for a week. Grandy reaches again on a walk. ANnd Tejada goes the other way for a sungle, Grandy to 2nd. DudaTime!
Nice 1st for Niese. On that bunt he looked like he was moving with more urgency than I've seen out of him in quite a while. Cuddy looks like he's swinging the bat just for the sake of swinging a bat. HA!, & then he homers. CudBOOM!

Robles comes in after a lead off single for the Dbacks in the 8th. Tsk tsk Gilmartin. May you go thirsty there in Arizona as well as here.

I understand the closers role and how these days it's a give in he gets the 9th, but if I was a starter I would never want to use the bridge if I didn't need to. Mayberry smacks a double to deep left center. Yea, insurance would be nice.
