The Mets defeated the Reds today by a score of 10-4 in Cincinnati. Pedro Martinez got his first win of the season, pitching 5 innings, allowing 3 runs (2 earned) walking 3 and striking out 5. Aaron Harang took the loss for the Reds.
Pedro is back guys. Its Christmas in September.
Pedro was a little shaky at the start, allowing two first inning runs, but from there on out, he was very very sharp. The only other run he gave up was on a Carlos Beltran error in the 4th.
David Wright and Moises Alou both collected 3 hits on the day, and both hit homers.
David and Moises have both been locked in since the ASB.
Carlos Delgado also chipped in with a Solo Homer of his own.
Delgados on a TEAR.
The Bullpen pitched 4 solid innings, allowing only 1 run in the 9th.
Solid work, but Aaron Sele looked shaky again in the 9th, I think its time to show him the door.
With the Phillies loss today, the Mets now are sitting pretty, 5 games up on the Phils.
LETS GO METS!
