Ninth Inning Nightmare

Johan Santana answered the bell last night and pitched eight great innings against the Phillies at Shea.

The Mets carried a 5-2 lead into the 9th inning.  The bull pen, sans Billy Wagner, imploded and gave up six runs.  It's beyond words and blogging.  Editor-In-Chief and PermaGuest Outlaw Jack was at the Yankee game and was in disbelief when I reported the info to him.

The Mets scored one run in the 9th but lost 8-6.  You try not to read too much into one game but this one hurts.  Ouch!
