Friday, April 18, 2008

The Mets defeated the Cheating Phills 6-4. Johan Santana(W) was the man in today's game. 7+ innings, 3 runs, and 10 K's. Heilman was responsible for 2 of Santana's runs and one of his own when he gave up a homer to Greg Dobbs. Wright was amazing 4-4 triple, 2 double, single, 2 RBI's. Wagner(S) got the save.

The Yankees lost to the O's 8-2. Hughes(L) started off well, but began to falter in the 6th. His final line was 5.1, 5 runs, 2 walks, and 1 K. LaTroy Hawkins gave up some of those as inherited runners and gave up 3 of his own really blowing this game open. A-Rod went 0-3 with a SB.

The Rangers were defeated the Devils 5-3. They won the series 4-1 and now move onto the 2nd round. King Henrik looked amazing giving up goals that deflected off his own players twice. Lundqvist's best save was on the PENALTY SHOT by John Madden in the 3rd period. Gomez scored a goal and played some of the best D a player can play really coming through clutch in the 3rd period. Captain Clutch Chris Drury scored the game winning goal off a nice feed from Nigel Dawes and Dubinsky had the 5th goal that put the nail in the coffin. In the handshakes after the game Marty Brodeur refused to shake Avery's hand so Avery said after the game fatso forgot to shake my hand.... classic.
