Recap Mets are just spoiling us with all this offense including the homeruns. Ike Davis with a three-run homerun to break the game open, and after Jason Bay robbed the Braves of a homerun, hit one himself deep in center field for a solo shot and an insurance run. Broken fingers seem to be helping the Mets. Dillon Gee had a great start this afternoon allowing only one run on four hits in seven innings [...]

Recap R.A. Dickey continues to roll with the punches as he got tagged for nine hits but only allowed one batter to touch home. The knuckleballer mixed in his fastball nicely today and his knuckler was on que today with only one mistake of homerun against Chase Utley’s no name replacement. He pitched for seven innings, allowing just one run on nine hits and one walk. Dickey continues to throw strikes reaching seven K’s in [...]

Game Summary Dillon Gee got rocked with homeruns as he let up three in his five innings of work. The bullpen is good except for Parnell. Mets bats did all they could do. Mets lose in walk-off fashion, 8-7. Game Notes The rookie, Dillon Gee, had quite the set back today. After such a decent rookie season, he really got rocked by the Nationals offense, and especially the long ball. Only five innings under his [...]

GAME ONE: Game Summary Nice start by Dickey with seven shutout innings. Duda and Evans combine for five hits, and the Mets score two just enough to win 2-1 in the first game of the double-header. Game Notes RA Dickey pitched another gem today. With a weekend full of rain and no Mets baseball, it was nice to get a win off the bat, and good to see it didn’t affect the pitchers at all. [...]

If you’re a regular reader of MMO, you know that I haven’t done a recap here since 2009. However, after today’s 11-2 blowout of the Phillies, it would be hard for me not to do a recap, basically because there’s something I have to get off my chest. It’s something that’s been on my mind ever since I listened to WFAN on a cold December afternoon in 2008, when Cole Hamels called the Mets “choke [...]

Game Notes Tim Lincecum was the Ace the Mets only hear about as they usually have his number. However, tonight he limited the Mets to one run on four hits  as the Mets lost to San Francisco, 3-1, on Saturday night. Capuano showed a strong showing as well on the Mets side. Six innings with only four hits as well but allowed two to score. He also added in four walks and five Ks. The [...]

Game Summary Mets fought it out till the very end, but the bullpen just…well sucks. Great start by Pelfrey with six innings and only four hits, and nice job by Ronny Paulino who led the offense tonight. Mets lose with their first walk-off loss of the season, 7-6 to Brewers. Game Notes Mike Pelfrey with another good start tonight. Pelf allowed only four hits and made just one big mistake, a fastball down the middle to Fielder [...]

Game Summary With Pelfrey’s best and longest start going into the eighth inning, the Mets looked to beat their rivals, but the implosion of the bullpen and the faltering of Mets late-inning runs, cost him a win. Mets lose 5-2. Game Notes Mike Pelfrey pitched like he was finally back in form. Pelfrey kept the Phillies to just one run till he found himself in trouble in the eighth after Rollins got a base hit [...]

Game Summary Either Mother Nature is a Mets fan or these spring storms in the north have one slim positive in them. Either way the Mets win with a little help from the rain. With the game being called in the seventh inning and the Mets having a three run lead after hitting the Cubs harder than the rain, gives them a win to tie up the series. Gee pitches a complete game (technically) and [...]

Game Summary Niese had a decent short outing but walked a good amount of batters. Bullpen and offense lacked majorly. Mets lose another 6-1 to the Astros and take last place in the NL. Jason Bay returns tomorrow though! Game Notes Jon Niese must love to give batters a free base because he gave up five walks, something that has plagued Mets starters this season. Niese once again goes a short six innings, giving up [...]
