The Mets were gift wrapped a first inning scoring situation today and messed it up big time.
Kaz Matsui reached first on a throwing error by Expos third baseman Tony Batista.
Karim Garcia walked, moving Matsui to second. Then Shane Spencer was hit by a John Patterson pitch to load up the bases with no outs. The stage is set for a big inning, right?
Wrong. Just as quickly as it started, it ended. Mike Piazza struck out, Jason Phillips flied out and Mike Cameron struck out, of course.
Not that I was expecting much anyway. I mean, these are the Mets after all. They didn't even earn their way on to base to begin with. If these guys want to be taken seriously they're going to need to capitalize on situations like this where the opposition gift wraps runs for you.
