It was One More Saturday Night as the visiting New York Mets took the second game of the series from the Baltimore Orioles 3-1 last night. My Wife and I sat in the Terrace Box seats again, this time in Section 47. The game time temperature was a lot hotter at 88 degrees with moderate humidity but it was still a great night to be at the ballpark. Met starting pitcher Hisanori Takahashi was excellent giving up only 1 earned run, 6 hits, with 1 walk and 2 strikeouts in 7.0 innings to earn his 5th win of the season. Jerry Manuel went to Pedro Feliciano again in the 8th inning and he pitched very well only giving up a double. Francisco Rodriguez pitched a scoreless 9th inning for 13th save of the season. K-Rod hit Oriole center fielder Adam Jones but got out of the game when Oriole catcher Matt Wieters pinch hit in the 9th and hit into a game ending double-play. Jose Reyes led off the game trying to drag bunt for a hit but instead hit a home run just over the left center field fence. David Wright was the Mets’ designated hitter and Fernando Tatis started at third base. In the 6th inning Wright hit into what should have been a double-play but ex-Met Ty Wiggington was pulled off first base with a high throw and Ruben Tejada scored for the Mets. I was saying that the Mets could use an insurance run just before Jeff Francoueur led off the 8th with a solo home run to right center field. The Mets complete the three-game series this afternoon as Mike Pelfrey goes for his 9th win of the season for New York. After the game we stopped at the Inner Harbor for a walk and stopped to listen to a local band. I chatted with a man from Baltimore about the Orioles and Mets. I told him that Bobby Valentine would bring a mentality of winning to the Orioles if they hire him to manage. The Orioles have young talent but need a mindset of winning 2-of-3 vs. 1-of-3 each series. I took the picture from our seats in the Terrace Box, Section 47.Sunday, June 13, 2010
Takahashi Takes Care of Business as Mets Defeated Orioles 3-1 at Oriole Park at Camden Yards Saturday
