METS SALVAGE WIN, LIDLE ALMOST BLOWS IT.....AGAIN!


In a close game the New York (NL) Mets offense put up 5 runs on the scoreboard in the 3rd inning and got by the San Francisco Giants by the score of 7 to 5.
Dave Mlicki(1-0) gave New York (NL) a solid outing. He was reached for 7 hits and no walks in 7 innings. Mlicki got help from John Franco who pitched great and earned his 3rd save.

Pat Rapp(0-1) was the losing pitcher. He had trouble throwing strikes and issued 7 walks in 2 and 2/3 innings.

Corey Lidle pitched a 1/3 of an inning, gave up 2 hits, 2 ER. His era for the season now stands at 33.75. "I thought it was important to stick him back out there, let him redeem himself, how was I supposed to know the jackass was going to damn near blow another game, we cant stick with him for now....sit him on the bench, let him get his shit together. The nigga looks rattled out there.... I normally dont share my weed with players...but Corey is in dire need of something to help him calm down"

Graham let the pitchers hit tonight as well. "Well...we were up big to start...things were going our way..we knocked their pitcher out in the 3rd, got to their bullpen, no point in playing small ball, lets see if someone can run into one out there" The pitchers were held hitless, however Mlicki did scratch across a run to help his cause.

Tonights Chevy player of the game honors go to Carlos Baerga! He was 2-5, 2 ribbies and his first homerun of the year. Atta' boy Carlos!!
