Clutch is Stuck.......

Even after the Mets first win over the Phillies in 12 years (actually, 284 days) the Met's clutch is still stuck in neutral. Bases loaded in the 1st and 2nd innings, and only 1 run to show for it. The Met's would take the game after the Phillies started resembling the Bad News Bears in the field, kicking the ball around better than Pele. Still, a win is a win they say, and when the win is a win over the Phillies, you take them gift-wrapped or otherwise. Not an impressive start for the blue and orange. Jose Reyes has got to get on base to make things happen, Scott Shoenwies has to stop taking Rodney King style beatings out of the pen, and Aaron Hielman has got to get to the chiropractor to work those kinks out of his neck from whipping his head around so fast to watch the batters ball fly over the fence at such an alarming rate. Rubber game tonight, and the Met's really need to take this series and get some momentum built and start erasing last year's collapse. John Maine is on the mound tonight looking to bring his spring form back and put that horrible start at Atlanta behind him.
