- Mets 5, Nationals 0 (5 innings): John Maine lasted five innings. Normally that wouldn't that be that good, but then the rains came, the game was called 90 minutes later and Maine had a complete-game one-hitter. Don't look past Maine's battery-mate, Ramon Castro, who went 2-for-2 with a home run and has looked great when he's seen the time. Would the Mets be a better team with him as the regular catcher and Paul Lo Duca on the bench? Probably. They can afford to take the chance.
- Yankees 10, Orioles 6: Johnny Damon stopped masquerading as a corpse -- for one day at least -- to help the Yankees salvage the finale from the three-game series in Baltimore. Chien-Ming Wang pitched like he has of late: well without dominating stuff. Bobby Abreu's awakening from a recent nap also helped matters. The Yankees are only four out in the wild-card race.
- Sun 67, Liberty 61: New York has gone three weeks without a win. The Liberty shot only 37 percent from the floor and went 3-of-18 from outside. Things aren't looking good for Pat Coyle's crew.
- Vermont 4, Brooklyn 1: Dylan Owen took his first loss -- and it was a tough-luck one -- by allowing two runs in 5 2/3 innings. His teammates only decided to score in the ninth.
- Tri-City 10, Staten Island 5: The Baby Bombers rallied from a 5-1 deficit but then didn't have enough energy to battle back. Nicholas Chigges took the loss in relief.

what?
The way you say "Maine lasted five innings" makes it seem like they pulled him, rather than it being a result of the called game.
Well playing the Expos, I will always call them the Expos no matter what evil machinations that [expletive deleted] [expletive deleted] [expletive deleted] Bud Selig (who is baseball's version of the anti-christ) performs, is almost always a joke, except when they win.
