Pedro Martinez pitched 7 strong innings. He made just one mistake giving up the two run homerun to the Met nemesis Chipper Jones. David Wright hit two home runs. The Mets played good defense, Duaner Sanchez again doing his thing and Billy Wagner strikes out the side to end it although he gave me some agata in the process. After the game I watched the highlights on SNY but the one highlight they didn't show for me was the most important. Jose Reyes in the top of the ninth led off with a drag bunt single, stole second, went to third on a sacrifice bunt by Paul Lo Duca, then scored on a Carlos Delgado sac fly. Now that's winning baseball, simply text book! When Reyes is on, the Mets win, it's as simple as that.

Pedro is 5 and 0, so much for that toe problem. This guy is a winner, he has an intangible to go along with his great stuff, he just knows how to compete and has tremendous desire to win. He is just so much fun to watch. Hopefully Tom Glavine will be ready to take the spotlight tomorrow night. It's early but it would be great for the Mets to win this series. One game at a time, one game at a time.
