Seo Good (or Getting Wiggy With It!)
A couple of bullet points on last night's 4-1 win over the Marlins and a service note:
Jae Seo pitched well continuing his great play against the Marlins. As I mentioned in a post yesterday, Seo was 2-1 with a 1.52 ERA in four outings against Florida in his career. Last night he went 6 innings allowing 3 hits & 1 earned run to pick up the victory. Braden Looper pitched a perfect 9th inning to get his 11th save.
Ty Wigginton hit a 2 RBI triple in the second inning to give the Mets the lead. That gave Wigginton immortality for having the longest consecutive game extra base hit streak in Mets history with 8 consecutive games. I guess that shuts up all the people who were criticizing his hitting earlier in the year. Sure he's not as great a hitter as he looks right now but doomsayers had him dead to rites the first few weeks of the season. A little health goes a long way and even though he's performing above himself right now he is still a serviceable major league hitter who is capable of holding down the position for a while until the next guy comes along (David Wright?).
I added 2 more fan blogs to the left sidebar. Welcome to Baseball Reloaded and Quite simply, my friends, you gotta believe. Also, a belated welcome to the other blogs added to the list in the last week. They are: Rounding 3rd Knight, Old Backstop, The Metropolitans & Metsblog.com. And a welcome back to jedikaos.net who seemed to leave us for a while but is now back. That brings the total Mets related blog links to 28. Not bad.
