Think about it, last night’s win means the Mets will at least finish 5–5 on this rollercoaster, 10–game, West-to-East Coast road trip, despite losing Carlos Delgado and Alex Cora, injuries to Jose Reyes, Ryan Church and J.J. Putz, a runner missing third base, countless errors, three balks, and playing two teams with the best home records in baseball, including the Dodgers, who have the best overall record in the entire league.
I mean, we played 4 at SF(We hadn't won a road trip opener in SF in 21 years), 3 at LAD(best team in the MLB, best record at home), and 3 at BOS(Great team, tough place to play on the road). And we went at worst 5-5 with arguable 50% of our team. Not too bad.
