Feliciano wasn't even at the ballpark

When Aaron Heilman was in the middle of his disaster inning, and I asked where Pedro Feliciano was, the answer to that question is: not at the ballpark.

Via Adam Rubin:
Pedro Feliciano was unavailable because he arrived at the ballpark in the seventh inning. Feliciano had permission from the Mets to go home to Puerto Rico for a family issue after Sunday’s game in Philadelphia. His 6 a.m. flight from San Juan to JFK was cancelled, and he had to be re-routed through Orlando. Mets security picked him up at the airport, but couldn’t get him to the ballpark in time to contribute.
Well there you have it. At least he's not injured.
