Mets Demolish The Marlins 9-2! Maine, Beltran and Reyes Shine!
An amazin' victory for the Mets tonight as they pounded their nemesis Dontrelle Willis and beat the Marlins 9-2!
The warm weather definitely agreed with the Mets batters as they exploded for 9 runs on 16 hits!
They scored 4 runs out of the gate in the first inning!
Carlos Beltran led the offense with 3 hits including his third home run of the season. He drove in 3 runs and scored 2.
Valentin is getting hot and has 7 hits in his last 3 games including 4 doubles!
Jose Reyes had 4 hits today with an RBI and 2 runs scored!!! He is on fire!!!
Enough about the offense because the real star of the show was John the freaking Maine man!!!
He pitched 6 no-hit innings tonight and didn't allow a hit until the 7th to Miguel Cabrera who got a free strike from the ump who called a "no swing" on an obvious strike 3 call! He then gave up a 2-run shot later in the inning, but make no mistake this was a huge effort from Maine!
This was a fun game to watch and I hope most of you got to see it!!
Incidentally, what the heck is the deal with that damn AFLAC duck?? I swear I want to scream every time he interrupts the game with his annoying quack!!!
It was great to see LoDuca back behind the plate! The guy's a freaking gamer!
Keith Hernandez seemed to have a huge problem with Borat during the game. Borat could not be reached for a comment.
Let sweep these fishies tomorrow! GO METS!

I love the METS. I know this year is one. The METS are going to bring it on so the other teams better watch out. The NY METS are KINGS OF QUEENS. :)

By the way... Borat kinda looks like Keith Hernandez, maybe that's why he seems to have a problem. Borat stole his look!LOL
