Sweetness

Coupled with losses from both the Flyers and 76ers, last night was a just a bad night to be a sports fan of any Philadelphia team.  The Mets made sure to keep that trend going as they picked up their second win of this series.

Down 4-0 in the second inning, it would have been real easy for the Mets to have just packed it in, especially with Miguel Batista on the hill.  But this is the new Mets, the 2012 Mets.  They don't have that quit in them.  They just keep playing until the umpires tell them no more.

Kirk Nieuwenhuis, Lucas Duda, and David Wright all contributed with big hits down the stretch, the bullpen held on to some narrow margins and boom! Victory for the boys in blue. 

The Mets have the best record so far against NL East teams, raking up 12 wins so far.  Keep doing this and we'll be on to something.
