Mets lose again, back to .500

Mets lost tonight to fall to 18-18. I hate when I'm right, but I predicted this afternoon the Mets would lose 7-2. It's very rare that I hit it right on the head, so I like to point it out when I do.

In case you missed the game, all you need to know is that Oliver Perez got 10 outs, but allowed SEVEN runs, including FOUR home runs (9 hits, 3 walks). The game was essentially over after that, but the Mets bullpen held down the fort over the next 4 1/3 innings.

Pagan was 1-4 and drove in the only two Mets runs.
Reyes 0-4
D Wright 0-3 with 2 strike outs
J Francoeur 0-4. Now batting .222

I really enjoyed seeing our best prospect (Mejia) in the 8th inning of a 7-2 game Jerry. That was an important inning for his development. Unreal.

Mets-Marlins resume their series and the Mets try to win a game in this four game series tomorrow night, 7:10 PM. John Maine vs Nate Robertson is the pitching match-up
