Last Night's Action: One Up One Down
- Mets 4 Phillies 2: The Mets pulled out the win thanks to a home run by Jose Reyes and some nifty relief work from Aaron Heilman. Heilman came in with the bases loaded and only one out in the eighth and allowed only one run to give the Mets a 4-2 margin heading into the ninth. Billy Wagner took things from there with a perfect ninth.
David Wright had 2 RBI’s and 2 hits in the win.
- Baltimore 6 Yankees 0: Ian Kennedy delivered another clunker and the offense didn’t do anything. Those are the headlines, the question is what do the Yankees do about it? After tomorrow they have an off day, which would be a good time to split up Hughes and Kennedy in the rotation, but apart from that, they have little in the way of options. The bats will have to carry this team in 2008 and they have to hope they wake up soon.
- Red Bulls 1 New England 1: The Red Bulls dominated in every way except for the scoreboard. New England played a man down for most of the second half, but still managed to pull out a tie.

The Mets have always needed to win those "luck" games to have a good season - hopefully then can maintain.
As for the Yankees, maybe then can blame Joe Torre. Oh, wait...he's gone.
