Mets v. Dodgers 6-1 (W)


Above .500!!! Yeah now you Met fans can celebrate and Willie can relax for a little while with the team playing great ball right now. They are playing as we all expected and the man stepped on big tonight to show why he was worth the four prospects the Mets had to give up to get him and why they were so willing to do so.

Jose Reyes has been on fire as of late. He now has a 17 game hitting streak and has stolen 6 bases in that time with 12 runs and 5 home runs. As the saying goes 'As Jose goes the Mets go' and it has stayed true to form so far this year.

His franchise mate David Wright had a good game himself with 3 hits (all singles), 2RBI's, and a steal. How amazing is Ryan Church? He came in and played as if he didn't miss a beat. It took him one at-bat to get in the grove, but then he was golden. His 10th home run his second time up, double his third time up, and single his fourth time.

Johan Santana was the man today. He started out slow, but put it all together and threw 7.2 innings with 6K's and only 1 run given up. He handed it off to Joe Smith who hit his only batter and had to be bailed out by Scott Schoeneweis who continued his amazing season and the game was finished off by Pedro Feliciano with a perfect 9th.
