Another gross loss for the Mets. Winning in the ninth inning, the New York Mets again collapsed giving up the tying and winning runs in the bottom of the ninth to the Baltimore Orioles.

K-Rod blew the save. This after starting the season perfect, but then Luis Castillo dropped a pop up last week which caused K-Rod to blow his first save. Now obviously K-Rod has not mentally recovered from that blown save.

At least the Washington Nationals took 2 out of 3 games from the New York Yankees. And the Phillies got swept by the Toronto Blue Jays.

Look, our team is beat up. But we need to lock down wins when they are in reach. This blowing of late game leads is just awful. It isn’t like we are balancing these blown leads with a bunch of come from behind victories. We haven’t had to many of those.

The Baltimore Orioles star dropped an over the shoulder pop-up giving the Mets a couple of unearned runs. Those turned out to be the winning runs in this interleague game.

Sound familiar, last week Luis Castillo gave an Interleague game away to the Yankees. It all evens out during a 162 game season says Jerry Manuel. In this case, it evened out pretty quick.

With the Phillies blowing a late lead to the Blue Jays, the Mets getting the win today closed the gap to only a few games back of the division lead. Despite the growing list of injuries, the Mets are hanging tough.

By the way, Sammy Sosa is a cheat. Not like anybody really suspected otherwise. He went from an occasional power hitter to becoming the guy who chased down Roger Maris’ single season home run record virtually overnight. Then testing went into place and he couldn’t hit a home run in a little league park. Anyway, the list of 104 unknown names of cheaters is down to 102 after Fucking cheating A-Roid and Shammin Sammy were released to the public.

Shammin Sammy, I take credit for that nickname. Sweet.
