Big Win Tonight

It felt good to see the Mets win tonight especially on a night when most of us fans were probably sure what we might get from Big Pelf. He did a great job stepping p and being the stopper of the Mets mini 3 game streak of losses. He only pitched 5 innings but he was hitting his spots away with the slider and pounding the lower portion of the strike zone with his hard sinking fastball. Much more like the Big Pelf we saw last year in spring training. When he is keeping the ball down the other teams just seems to pound it into the ground.

The Mets only got 5 hits but it was nice to see them take advantage of 3 miscues by the other team and a ton of walks. When the other team gives you extra outs and walks a ton of guys you have to make them pay. Unfortunately we do not see it as often as we would like. A win tomorrow and back to .500.

Also nice to Delgado hitting well early on. He can be a big key for this team protecting Beltran but also just plain mashing.

You may have noticed all the posts are from the same day. I switched over to this site today and moved all of my previous posts with me which is why everything was posted on one day.
