Mets only hit two home runs in this 4-game-series against the Phillies. I mean, that “new” Philly stadium is considered a home-run-paradise, and the Phillies have a vulnerable starting rotation and bullpen, and yet the Mets only hit two home runs in these 4 games. And the Mets hit no home runs in this game, despite scoring 10 runs on 10 hits. The Phillies, on the other hand, hit 11 home runs against the Mets in this 4-game-series.
Billy Wagner had a history of sucking at holding runners. I'll always remember when they got swept in '05 by Houston (the series that proved the difference in the Phils missing the playoffs) and he let a guy steal two bases uncontested that ultimately led to Houston winning the game. Same thing happened in this one.
Watching this in 2024 is bittersweet after watching their 9th in collapse and our fans taking over shiti field. Poverty franchise and laughing stock of the NL East
I went to this game! I was about 9 years old. The trauma as a Mets fan will stay with me to the grave.
Glad I could help?
