Mets Shut out Phillies 8-0 and get back to .500,

Great all around team win, started by six shutout innings from RA Dickey, and three scoreless innings from Raul Valdes.

Mets played small ball, capitalized on mistakes (Victoriano losing a ball in the lights and Wright got a double), three stolen bases (two by Reyes, one by Bay), and a big day from Jeff Francoeur.

Mets are now only 4 games back from the 1st place Phillies.

Try to win the series tomorrow, Blanton vs Takahashi, before the season finale Thursday, Hamels vs Pelfrey.
