Seems like nothing good happens to the Mets in Pittsburgh.
The team jumped out to a 4-0 lead, which should stand with
Johan Santana on the mound.
Alas, Santana, with a 4-2 lead, later gave up a game-tying
home run to Michael McKenry.
A tie game and the Mets bully is usually a recipe for
disaster. But this time it’s not Jon Rauch’s fault.
There’s a reason Mike Baxter is usually a pinch hitter. In
the bottom of the eighth, Baxter collided with Kirk Nieuwenhuis, knocking the
ball out of his glove and allowing the go-ahead runner to reach third base.
That allows the Mobile Gnome of Defeat to show his love of
Pennsylvania. There are at least two of these sculptures in Philadelphia .
