Last Night's Action: A Game To Enjoy

New York 10 Philadelphia 9: New York jumped out to a 4-0 lead and turned to Mike Pelfrey to make it standup. Pelfrey couldn’t handle that, surrendering eight runs in six innings of work and he left with the Phillies up 8-4. But, the Philadelphia bullpen is a mess and the Mets rallied with three in the eighth and two in the ninth, thanks to a David Wright home run to take the lead. K-Rod shut the door and the Mets and their fans had a reason to celebrate.
Baltimore 7 Yankees 3: If you are a Yankees’ fan and you want something to worry about right now, focus on A.J. Burnett. Burnett was awful again on Saturday giving up six runs in the second inning and surrendering some deep flyballs that would have been homers if the wind hadn’t knocked them down. Apart from his last start, Burnett hasn’t been very good in over a month and the Yankees need to get him right for October.
