The Mets won again!

Wagner had a shaky ninth inning, but since we were winning 7-1 it wasn't so stressful.

The Mets are now 5-1 and 2 up on the braves. Not a bad start to the season.

Jose got another triple today (with 2 men on), but no stolen bases.

Brian Bannister, the winning pitcher, won his first Major League game! He also had a double on 2 hits. Not bad.

Beltran got himself a 2-run homer and extended the Mets lead in the 9th. He is looking much better this year.

Wright got his obligatory RBI on his lone hit, a double. His avg dropped to .435. Nady went hitless today, though, and his era is now .391.

Happy Birthday Paul LoDuca. As a present he gave us 3 hits in 5 at-bats, including a double and an RBI.

Bannister gave us 7 innings, I think that is the longest this year by a Met starter. He held them to 3 hits and 1 run (HR by Soriano) during that time and brought his ERA down to 2.77.

Let's keep this going!!! 4 in a row. We haven't seen that much in the past few years.

Let's Go Mets!!!!

PS One last note: Nobody got hit today. Let's see what happens tomorrow with Pedro...
