Cardinals 3 Mets 0: All Tied Up

The Mets lose, again, by finding themselves limited to just three hits. Those hits were given up by a Seattle Mariners cast-off, Joel Pineiro, who pitched eight innings, plus one inning by closer Jason Isringhausen. The Mets did not get a hit past the fifth inning, and the last 13 batters were set down in a row to end the game. Held scoreless and looking very ineffective on the offensive end, by freakin' Joel Pineiro, now that's gotta leave a bad taste in the Mets collective mouth, though thankfully the Mets bullpen did not implode in this game as has been the case so often the past two weeks. Always look on the bright side of things, we were told by Monty Python. That's my grasp at doing so tonight.


The Phillies have just closed out there game with the Braves by a 6-4 score, and now it is all tied up atop the National League East. No harm in saying that this team doesn't deserve to make the playoffs, which it very well may not if the Padres continue their winning ways and claim the wild card spot. Sigh.
