Mets Split First Two Games of Series with the Nats

Last night Francoeur and Barajas hit two homers each, while Mike Pelfrey went 6 innings giving up 4 hits and  2 runs in the Mets 8-2 victory over the Nationals.  The game was fun to watch, and it was nice to see the thump this Mets line-up seems capable of...

As for today, the Mets fell 4-3 to the Nationals despite the return of Jose Reyes.  The Mets were down 4-3 in the ninth with Reyes in scoring position when Barajas hit what seemed almost certain to be a big hit, except that Willie Harris made an exceptional play.  I can't stand him.  He kills the Mets everywhere he plays...

Oliver Perez threw 5 and 2/3 innings while giving up 4 runs on 4 hits, while walking 4, and taking the loss.  At the plate Francoeur went 2-4 and is another multi-hit game away from me getting a Francoeur jersey, because it's hard not to like him. 

Sorry this post is kind of weak.  Been a tough day or so.

Tomorrow it's Santana against Livan Hernandez, making tomorrow a must-win for a few reasons....
