.... and the streak ends

And so I open my big mouth and the Mets proceed to score 1 run for Johan, and the Mets allow 5 unearned runs to lose. Fantastic. What a team. We'll see what they do from here. I heard a stat, the Mets score less than 2 runs a game when Santana pitches (11 runs on the year) For every other start they average over 6. Nothing like supporting your teammates.

In other news we had a company softball game last night; the team played really well; until the 7th inning when we decided to blow a 2 run lead by allowing the other team to hit for 10 runs in the inning. So what was a 9-7 lead for us turned quickly to a 17-9 deficit. Still the team made a good effort, we loaded the bases with nobody out, had a FC grounder to third which they got the out at home. I singled in 2, behind me doubled, I went first to third, then home when they threw in to second. The throw got away behind the catcher and we had a man on third. A sac fly got in that run. We got a couple more hits and got the tying run to the plate, but that was as close as it got. It ended 17-14. Overall, though it was a good game, I thought the team played pretty well minus that inning and showed some tenacity trying to fight back in the end. For those keeping score I was 3/4 (the fourth was a fading liner that pushed through the LF's glove-it was moving and went for a 3 bagger, it was scored an E-7; I dissagree, if it was just a drop I shouldn't have even gotten to second) 1 2b, 2 singles, 3rbi, 3 run scored.
