Whoooooooo, what a game! Bordick, Zeile, Ventura, and someone else, I forget who, launched homers against the Rox. I was excited to see Hampton but he got hurt and Wendell came in and threw I think 5 innings of long relief for the win.

Zeile, Agbayani, Ventura and Bordick went deep for the Mets this afternoon. The Mets just lit up Masato Yoshii this game. Hampton left with an injury after 3, but Wendell came in and pitched great. Even nailed a single in the 5th in a rare AB, but then he got greedy and tried to stretch it into a double. He was promptly and easily thrown out at second. He took a faceful of dirt with his slide as well. The Mets allowed the Rockies 2 runs to score when they let a Hollandsworth double kick all the way around the infield. Didn't matter. The game was out of reach by then.
