Mets Take Game 1

April 17th, 2006

I missed the first three innings cause I got home at Eight.. so okay hold on, here are the highlights. Pedro pitching like pedro. Jorge Sosa giving up a bomb to Nady, hmm, Langerhans dumping one in to score Giles. Sosa giving up big to Delgado, 4-2 at that point. Nady making a sick ass catch. AJ smacking one out of the freakin stadium. Awesome. Chuck James pitched good in relief. Pedro stayed in the game. Then left. AJ came up short on his next try. Wagner saved it, even after beaning a batter.

And everywhere in the world the Mets fans cheer and jeer and jump for joy. Mike Hogan thinks its the shit, and therefore it is!
Mets are 10-2. Pedro has won 200 career games. Etc Etc Etc. Good for them!

Mets look for 10th win behind Martinez
FLUSHING, New York (Ticker) – Trying to become the first team in the major leagues to win 10 games, the New York Mets send Pedro Martinez to the mound Monday as they open a three-game series against National League East Division rival the Atlanta Braves.

Martinez (2-0, 3.46 ERA) was sharp in his last outing, yielding just one run and one hit – a solo homer to Jose Vidro – in seven innings as the Mets defeated Washington on Wednesday, 3-1.

New York posted a 9-3 triumph in its rubber game against Milwaukee on Sunday to improve to a major league-best 9-2. Carlos Delgado and Xavier Nady each homered and drove in three runs for the Mets, who are off to their best start in franchise history.

Atlanta will counter with Jorge Sosa (0-2, 11.37), who has yet to last more than four innings this season. Sosa has thrown a total of 6 1/3 frames in two starts, yielding 10 runs and 11 hits.

The Braves had won the first two games against San Diego over the weekend before losing Sunday’s finale, 4-3.
