Buffalo Loses As Familia Is Ineffective Again By Pete Shapiro Jeurys Familia (5-4, 5.00) was ineffective yet again, giving up five earned runs and not able to get through the third inning as Norfolk defeated Buffalo 5-3 to take the four game series three games to one. Three Bisons relievers went 5.1 innings of scoreless relief, but the Bisons bats were unable to play catch-up. Zach Britton (2-1, 5.82) got the win for Norfolk with [...]

After a sweep of the Tampa Bay Rays, the Mets laid an egg in a home series against the Red, dropping all three games. The Mets needed a bounce back series against Baltimore, who has been terrific the first few months of the season. They did just that only alowing two runs in the three games and sweeping the Orioles at Citi FIeld. Once again the Mets show their resiliency a resiliency that they have shown all [...]

The Mets improved to 38-32 after completing a three-game sweep of the Orioles with a thrilling 4-3 victory tonight in Citi Field. Dillon Gee started and delivered his best performance of the season tossing 7.1 innings and allowing just two runs on three hits and two walks while striking out nine. Gee was in command and had his changeup working, but his only mistake was one bad pitch that Wilson Betemit blasted for a two-run home [...]

It is becoming increasingly difficult to follow R.A. Dickey – but Santana plays the part well in a 5-0 blanking of the Orioles. Summary Baltimore really caught us on a bad time, did they not? The team fired on all cylinders tonight – starting pitching, relief pitching, offense, defense, and a little confidence. Makes you wonder, does it not? Johan started tonight and bounced back nicely for six shutout innings – 4 hits, 2 walks, [...]

After being brutally swept by the Cincinnati Reds, the Mets open their doors to the Orioles and R.A. Dickey tosses his second straight one-hitter and proves that he truly is an AL killer. R.A. Dickey is coming off of that controversial one-hitter/no-hitter against the Rays, and looks to have brought the same knuckleball with him on the plane ride back from Tampa Bay. His first baserunner was in the third inning when he walked the [...]

In one giant missed opportunity in which the cross town rival Yankees pulverized the division leading Washington Nationals, the Reds came in and completed the three-game sweep, besting the Amazin’s by a final score of 3-1. Chris Young took the hill for his turn in the rotation, trying to avoid the sweep for New York. He started off the day relatively dominant, putting up goose eggs over the first four frames while allowing only three hits [...]

Tough night for the Mets, as the Reds took the lead in the first and never looked back in this 4-1 defeat. Summary It was a low scoring affair tonight, and not much went in favor of our hometown heroes. They fell behind in top of the first and never really got back on track after that, even though Jon Niese recovered pretty well. Jon Niese took the mound this evening and did not pitch [...]

Mets came back home feeling good after sweeping the first place Rays. Dillon Gee tried to keep the ball rolling but he had no control and was getting batted all over Citi Field. In the second inning, Gee gave up a lead-off inside the park home run to Jay Bruce after Jason Bay slammed into the left field wall chasing down the ball, hitting his head and neck. He came out of the game, able [...]

What could have turned into a disaster of a road trip, ended up being a memorable one. Everybody seems to be on cloud 9 after the sweep in Tampa Bay. Just as the Mets have had to forget about their poor outings and focus on the next game, they must forget about the sweep and worry about today. This team is tenacious. However, I feel they sometimes get a tad too comfortable in success. For [...]
