The Mets wasted an opportunity last night. They could have picked up a road win in Milwaukee as the Brewers just let the darn thing lay there for 8 innings as Johan Santana had his way with the hapless homies allowing just three hits in 8 innings of work. Unfortunately the road team (the Mets) acted like they didn't want the game either getting eight hits--six of them singles--off Yovanni Gallardo in nine innings.
Santana ran the Mets shutout innings to 35 (team record is 42 back in 1969) before reliever Ryota Igarashi, fresh off the DL, gave up a two-run, walk-off home run to Corey Hart in the bottom of the ninth. Final score: Brewers 2, Mets 0 (Details here.
The Mets still have the worst road record in the National League at 6-15 (the Orioles 6-20 is the worst in the majors) and the Brewers still have the worst home record (7-15) in baseball. They play again tonight.
