I yelled and clapped quite loudly at T.G.I. Fridays. Oops.
The Good
Mike Pelfrey. Seriously, how good is he? A no decision after nine stellar innings of baseball is just wrong. Only five hits and one earned run, as he struck out five and walked none. He only needed 103 pitches to get through the nine innings. I was shocked that he didn’t come out to start the 10th. What a performance. I’m so proud of him.
Solo shots. Jose Reyes and Ike Davis both homered for the Mets only runs. Davis’ shot was an absolute bomb, landing about a dozen rows up in the Pepsi Porch. Can’t wait to see where Hit Tracker puts that ball.
Reyes, Pagan and Wright each had two hits. Wright picked up a two-bagger, while Pagan (thanks to a fan and botched call by the umps) hit the game’s only triple.
The Bad & Ugly
J. Bay: 0-5, 3 K
The usage of the bullpen really frightened me, but save for the one hit Pedro Feliciano allowed, they were perfect.
