The Mets defeated the Brew crew today 9-1. It was one of the best pure games that the mets have played this season. The 'B' team played better then it ever has. Great pitching, great hitting and great bat colors.

Carlos Gomez looked very good, making a beautiful catch as well and a few base knocks and a stolen base. I dont know if hes faster then Reyes but he looked like he could compete with that stolen base. He also looked 1000 times more relaxed in the feild then Lastings did...

The outfeild D was spectacular today. With all 3 speedsters out there in Endy, B-Train(I like it), and Gomez, they didnt let anything get away. For once when a ball went to right feild I didnt have to cringe.

Ollie was beautiful, making a mockery of the "best team in baseball". He completly dominated them. I know the Bill Hall HR ruined his 1 hit shutout, but you had to feel a little better knowing that he wasnt gonna pitch a complete 1 hitter with that one hit being the pitcher Capuano(who was awful) right?

Why did Willie take out Perez after that HR, was it just so he could get that nice ovation, because that wasnt a spot that heilman needed. As Sal pointed out, I bet that ovation will be on every highlight reel this year as well as SNY commercials just like Pedro's least year.

When that Villinuava guy was pithing, I was able to predict every pitch he threw to Beltran when he struck him out. I think the league is learning the curveball to B-Train trick.

I just found out why that guy on my baseball team wears # 27. He mustve looked into the future and saw that Gomez was gonna come up today and wear 27 so he took it before anyone else could. Good move and now Im stuck with Green's 20!

As I said in the title, I watched on my little TV and the mets looked great from there too. Theyre starting to click. BTW, the Braves got pummled by Pitt todays so were just a 1/2 game out going into a 4 gamer with the Cubs.

Happy Mother's day!
