Last Night's Action: Pagan Slams The D-Backs

  • Mets 9 Arizona 6: New York got back to winning thanks to a grand slam from Angel Pagan. Pagan’s shot in the 8th broke open a 5-5 game. The Mets had takes a 4-2 lead in the fourth, but Oliver Perez was shaky again. Perez did a Nuke LaLoosh impression, striking out seven while walking five over five innings and 112 pitches. Despite his wildness, Perez would have earned the win if Bobby Parnell hadn’t given up two runs in the sixth.

  • Yankees 6, Royals 1: Even with the Royals playing good baseball, getting swept in Kansas City would not have been good news for the Yankees. Andy Pettitte pitched through a short rain delay and what had been a productive Royals lineup as the Yankees took the finale of the three-game series. Alex Rodriguez had a home run in the ninth inning, but Melky Cabrera went 2-for-5 with a homer and an RBI single to help the Yankees to their six-run effort.
