The More Things Change.....

Nice to see Benitez blowing games for someone other than the Mets. Now, I pick on Benitez, probably unfairly so because his save % for the Mets was 88, but he always seemed to blow the BIG games. Atlanta numerous times and 2 against the Yankees in the World Series come directly to mind. But he was in a big spot again today with the chance of getting 2 out of 3 games for the Giants and couldn't hold the lead. Delgado splashed one down and I hope this will get him out of his brutal funk he's in. Wright with a clutch double in the 9th as well for one of his 2 hits. Jose Reyes was Jose Reyes and John Maine pitched out of trouble all game. (6 walks?!?!?) All in all another series win for the good guys. Fun matchup coming up Friday with the Brewers. Excuse me, the Best Record In Baseball Brewers. (By the way, I googled that exact phrase, and all I got was a WTF?? error message.)

On another fun note, almost the entire Mets team Brittney Spears'd their hair before last nights game. Glavine was not in on it, but you don't mess with a veteran pitcher on his day to pitch. Pretty loose team if you ask me, get spanked in game 1 handily, and the next day, everyone shaves their head. Whatever works. As long as it doesn't mean the entire team will be in and out of rehab and smashing cars with umbrella's, I'm all for it.
