Quick observations from Saturday’s win:
I don’t enjoy watching Cha Seung Baek pitch. He nibbles a little too much for my taste.
Where the heck was Justin Huber throwing the ball?
I’m glad Michael Barrett finally did something useful. We’ve been [...]

Mets left-hander Jerry Koosman gave up a solo home run to Ollie Brown with two out in the first inning. The next batter, Al Ferrara, singled to left. From that point on, Koosman was [...]
