- Angel Pagan, fresh off a beautiful diving grab into the stand in the bottom of the first, singles to left. Church moves to second.
- Marlon Anderson, starting for Carlos Delgado, works the count full against Brad Penny. Anderson drives one deep to center field, well over the head of Matt Kemp. The ball bounces on the warning track and skips over the top of the wall for a ground rule double. Church scores, Pagan held at third. 1-0 Mets.
- Raul Casanova pulls one through the hole on the right side. Pagan trots home and Anderson is waved around. Throw home isn't even close and the Mets score two more. 3-0 Mets. They're stringing together hits!!!
- John Maine bunts it back to the pitcher, moving Casanova to second.
- Ball four to Jose Reyes. Two on for Luis Castillo. 47 pitches for Penny. Does this mean Hong-Chih Kuo is coming out?! PLEASE NO!!!!!

- Beltran rips one to the third base side of short, and Chin-lung Hu can't make the grab. Single to left for Beltran.
- With Beltran running, Church gets busted in on the hands. Church gets some wood on it as his bat explodes at the handle. The ball dinks in behind Jeff Kent as Beltran goes to third on Church's single to short right.
- Pagan grounds one to Kent at second. With Pagan's speed, they have no chance at a double play. Beltran scores. 5-0 Mets.
- Anderson just missed a home run, driving one to the warning track on the fly. Two away.
- With Casanova batting, the Dodgers pitch out with Pagan running. Perfect throw, but Pagan still beats it. Good stuff. Casanova grounds one up the middle, but Kent tracks it down and makes a falling away throw. With Casanova lumbering up the line, Kent had more than enough time to put him away.
- 1 run, 2 hits, 0 BB, 0 K. 5-0 Mets.
- Endy Chavez is taking over for Pagan in left. His shoulder has to be bothering him from his dive into the stands. Hope he's all right. According to David Lennon, Pagan was not happy, throwing equipment around the dugout.
- Last night's hero, Blake DeWitt grounds out to Delgado, who makes the flip to Maine covering first.
- Hu doubles down the first base line for the first hit of the game off of Maine. And there goes the no hitter.

- Penny is up to 69 pitches while facing Reyes here with one out in the fourth inning. 3-1 pitch and Reyes grounds out to Kent. Don't let Penny get into a rhythm.
- Castillo rips one down the third base line and pulls into second with his third double of the year.
- Wright is swinging at almost everything, fouling off the first two pitches, both of which looked like they would have been balls. He grounds out to DeWitt, who makes the long throw across the diamond to end the top half of the inning.
- 0 runs, 1 hit, 0 BB, 0 K. 5-0 Mets.
- First pitch to Eithier grounded to second. Maine's 31st pitch of the day.
- Kemp batting, works the count to 2-2, before striking out swinging on a high fastball.
- 1-1 pitch to Maine goes high and inside and Kent has to hit the decks to get out of the way of that ball. Full count to Kent now. Gary just said "recombobulated." That's a new one. Check swing, and he went around, strike three to end the inning.
- 0 run, 0 hits, 0 BB, 2 K. 5-0 Mets.
- Full count to Beltran. Really making Penny work today. Beltran smokes one to first, but Loney makes a beautiful diving stab on the ball. He flips to Penny covering. One away.
- Church barely gets nicked by a ball inside. Looked like it might have touched his jersey and both benches have now been warned. Church is on base for the third straight time.
- Chavez is taking his first swings of the game. Chavez goes down swinging for only Penny's second strike out.
- Anderson checks his swings, but grounds one slowly to Hu at short. Hu is slow to field it and Anderson beats the throw to first for an infield single.

- 6 runs, 3 hits, 3 BB, 0 K. 11-0 Mets.
- Maine is only at 43 pitches. Loney smacks a double into the gap for the Dodgers second hit of the game. Beltran almost had it, but it was just a few feet out of his reach.
- Now Maine is struggling, and after a long at bat, Martin walks. Maine is now up to 61 pitches on the inning without recording an out.
- Maine bounces back and strikes out DeWitt for the first out of the inning.
- Hu grounds a ball to second. Castillo attempts a tag on Martin, but pulls away and throws to first for the first out. Delgado then throws to Reyes, who tags out Martin on the basepath. Perfectly executed double play.
