THE DEADLY COMBO

My friend David Jensen treated me to a day at Shea yesterday, where the first place New York Mets showed that poor relief pitching and a lack of timely hitting will ruin the Sunday afternoon of many a fan. Of course, whether the Mets won or lost wasn’t really relevant, since Dave and I had more fun just talking about wives, children, work, career, politics and secret parking places. Thanks, Dave!

Above right: The Mets’ David Wright hit two homers, but the rest of the line-up acted like a bunch of banjo hitters in making Atlanta’s pitching staff look like Atlanta’s old pitching staff. The scoreboard tells the tale: the Braves put up a five-spot in the ninth to steal a win.
