Thank goodness for Hank White.
The Good
Henry Blanco. The all-mighty Hank White hit a two-run home run over the “Great Wall of Flushing” for the Mets only two runs of the game.
The Bad & Ugly
Johan Santana walked four and allowed eight hits, surrendering four runs over 6 2/3 innings. He only struck out one batter. His velocity was noticeably down all game and his velocity wasn’t all there, either. Are you worried about him? Because I am starting to.
The last 22 Mets to come to bat were retired in order.
Ike Davis, David Wright and Jeff Francoeur each struck out twice.
