Wagner blows 4 run lead in game 2, Mets win game 3
Game 2— Yanks 5, Mets 4
Mets’ closer, Billy Wagner gave up 4 runs in game 2. PATHETIC. It happens, I know, but against the YANKEES. C’mon.
After 3 pitchers in the Top of the Ninth, the Mets and Yankees fought until the Yankees ended up winning in the 11th.
-Cliff Floyd came out of his slump for an at-bat, crushing the ball over the right field wall at Shea Stadium.
-Pedro pitched a GREAT GAME but, again, it has to be someone to BLOW IT when he pitches, which is 4 straight games where he has pitched great and the team can’t give him any help, resulting in a no-decision.
GAME 3–
Yanks start by scoring 2, Mets eventually score 4, and then later in the game, Yankees score 1, Mets win with a score of 4-3.
Glavine pitched well, allowing two runs in the fourth inning and seven hits and four walks in six innings.
Wagner pitched fantastic, closing the game.
Delgado crushed the ball into right field for a home run.
Immediately following, Wright crushed it to left field as it bounced into the streets of Queens.
Mets take the series, 3 games to 1.
Mets get day off, then Phils come to town for 3 games, VERY IMPORTANT SERIES.
The next subway series will take place at Yankees Stadium in late June running into early July.
EACH game of the first subway series were ONE POINT final scores.
