Another Large margin win. Another win with offense all over the line up.
How bout Ramon Castro, he is a really good fill in for LoDuca. He hits well, he def. hit well tonight. Although he is not as good and as consistant as LoDuca, he is def. a big part of this team. (In my opinion, few teams have really good back up catchers).
There was a nice spread in the offense, some of the numbers, like Valtine and Green already having 7 RBI, are really surprising (in a good way) because they show the spread of the hitting.
And the Mets really have been racking up the SO from the pitching end. El Duque with 10, Burgos with 2, and Wagner with 3.
There are two things I am worried about. The first is that Delgado is striking out a lot this year. The second is a lack of power from Wright.
I do not worry about this being a long term problem though.
Binghamton actually played (and won) today. Finally, they play a game. As I am writing this, the Zephyrs are in the top of the 8th, Gomez has had no hits tonight, but did steal his 7th base of the season.
The Phillies actually won a game. The Braves actually lost a game. This means that the Mets are now a half game up going into tommorows three game Braves/Mets series. These two dominent teams will clash again as the Mets have to go 2 of 3 to keep the lead in the Division and to even the season head to head record up. This also means that they will have to attempt at winning 2 day games this year. They have not won a day game yet (and thus have a Saturday/Sunday record of 0-4).
