The Mets defeated the Reds by the score of 11-7. Paul Lo Duca had 7 rbi's, two 3 run homers and an rbi single. Shawn Green had 3 hits and 2 rbi's. Carlos Beltran also hit a 2 run homer which is no surprise to me with the way he is hitting.

Nice to see Lo Duca and Green step up when Reyes and Wright 0-10 tonight.

Speaking of Reyes he just had a bad game. He went 0-5, got caught stealing and made a bad play when he tried to make a back hand play to Gotay. He looks sluggish and definitely needs a day off tomorrow.

Oliver Perez got the win but this game was definitely not his best. He only struck out 2 and walked 5 while giving up 3 earned runs in 5 innings.

If he wants to be the 4th starter for the post season then he has to pitch better than this.

Carlos Delgado got injured on a swing in the 8th and was holding his hip. We will keep you updated as soon as we hear the diagnosis.

O God no please. Overall great game by the bottom of the Mets lineup and they extend their winning streak to 5.
