So, last week things looked so promising. After taking two out of three from the Braves, the Mets' magic number stood at 11 games. Any combination of Mets wins and Philly losses totaling 11 would clinch the NL East.
And the Mets had a three game series with the Phils starting last Friday. Every game the Mets won would have cut the Magic Number by 2.
Here it is Monday night and the Magic Number is ...11, still. The Mets got swept. At home.
Things don't look an better tonight as the Washington Nationals have a huge lead over the Mets in the late innings and the Phils hold an equally large lead over the Cardinals.
*sigh*
