Extra Inning WIN!!!

Finally the Mets win an 14+ inning extra inning game. In a game that took just under five and half min that saw fans leave while the seagulls started circling more and more.

Matt Harvey pitched okay today. He did not look his best today but it was enough to keep the Mets in the game. He only gave up three earned runs in seven innings, striking out six while walking one.

EY Jr. is just so much fun to watch. He hit a triple to leadoff the sixth, that was almost an out because he slowed up rounding second base. He scored right after that by a Daniel Murphy single. But he's exciting, his speed just ignites this offense. It seems like when he's hitting the Mets tend to be able to score. I do however wish he would run a little bit more on the basepaths or maybe that Murphy could let him run a little bit more. EY also wound up scoring the winning run in the 16th inning.

David Wright picked his Home Run Derby team and when he was doing an interview about the team he picked before the game, he was asked who he thought should be starting the All-Star game. His response was, "Oh that's an easy one, I just 'Hi' to him, it's Matt Harvey." There are other players that it could be but I think that it just lines up perfectly to have Harvey start. He's pitching on Saturday instead of Sunday, he's one of the most exciting pitchers to watch, he wants it, oh and his home field is the where the game is to be played this year in Citi Field.
