Mets Lose!
The Mets played another one of those extra inning extended games yesterday, only this time their luck seemed to have run out. They actually lost this one, 7-6 in twelve innings. The brightest moment however occurred in the bottom of the tenth, Armando Benitez fell apart in typical fashion and had just given up a homer to Jose Valentin, rookie Lastings Milledge came to the plate. Milledge hit his first homer to tie up the game. Nice.

(It should be noted that Milledge then proceeded to high-five all the fans along the first base line when he took the field. The baseball gods do not like hubris, Lastings).

The Mets play late tonight against the Dodgers. Click here for a preview. (Base10 hates west coast games)!
