Game Recap: Rockies 11 – Mets 3

Hopefully you turned this game off and went to bed long ago.

The Good

David Wright hit a solo home run, his second of the season.

Jeff Francoeur’s hitting streak is still alive.  He’s hit in all seven games this season.

Raul Valdes and Jenrry Mejia turned in scoreless stints, two innings and one inning respectively.

Jose Reyes singled twice.  Still think he should be rehabbing in the minor leagues, though.

Jason Bay picked up his first RBI for the Mets in the 8th inning.  It made the game 11-3.  Yay.

The Bad & Ugly

Pretty much everything else…

John Maine: 3 IP, 7 H, 8 ER, 3 BB, 4 K.  Yeah, he just looks awful out there.

Mets pitchers walked 10 Rockies.  10!

Rockies pitching struck out 10 Mets.  10!

Fernando Nieve only lasted 1/3 of an inning and was charged with 3 ER.

Greg Smith, who hadn’t won a game since 2008, threw seven innings against the Mets, allowing only two earned runs and striking out eight.

Game Ball

David Wright.
