The Mets Battle Back, but lose by Uggla

I predicted a high scoring game tonight, but thought that Robertson would get hit slightly harder than Takahashi. Well, I was wrong, as Takahashi lets up six runs in 5 2/3 innings, and Robertson let up "only four runs" in six innings (nine base-runners). BUT, the Mets show resolve and get three hits in the 9th inning (Barajas, Carter and Thole) to score two runs to tie the game in the 9th, but Feliciano can't get the job done versus the righties and Mets lose 7-6.

• Takahashi: 17 outs, 11 base runners, including two home runs
• K-Rod had an easy 1, 2, 3 inning in the 8th with two k's
• D Wright continues to pound lefties, going 3-4, raising his average to .310

Mets try to salvage a game of this three-game series, Pelfrey vs Volstad tomorrow, 7:10 PM.
