Vintage Pedro, Mets lose 1-0

Pedro is still Pedro; he went 8 innings, striking out 7, walking 2 and giving up 6 hits. Even though it's our offense, it still has Luis Castillo, David Wright, and Carlos Beltran in it, and those 3 went a combined 2/9 with 2 walks. Tim Redding pitched pretty well for the Mets, going 6 innings, and limiting the potent Phillies offense to 1 run on 3 hits and 2 walks. He struck out 3. The offense was pretty bad, only getting one hit off of Madson in the 9th. Anderson Hernandez and Brian Schnedier both had multi hit games. Read that again. The 2 best hitters was Hernandez and Schneider. That's sad.
The Mets have been eliminated from the National League East, and the National League Wild Card, so guys, there is not comeback.
Stupid Decision of the Day: This one is gonna go to Charlie Manuel for letting Pedro pitch for 130 pitches. Pretty damn dumb, Charlie.
Random Thought of the Day: Jerry, please start playing Thole, Evans, and every other young guy called up more regularly now. It makes it more interesting.
Clutch Play of the Game: Wright double in 6th. +.097 WPA.
Up Next for the Mets:
Offday, then series with Atlanta.
Brian Schnedier Line:
.203/.279/.323. Up from .195/.274/.318
