The Mets are an interesting team. April is always so energetic. They win a nice handful, and the fans get rabid and silly. "This is our year". Then... it changes.
I don't hate the Mets. I just really, really like the Yankees. In game 1 today of this Subway series double header, the Yankees won 12-5. Everything changed for the Mets in the 4th, when Todd Frazier, whom I love, messed up big time. It was then that the wheels fell off. Crazy how that happens.
NorthJersey.com writes: "Frazier put it way out of Dominic Smith's reach, and the runner reached and took second on the error. Two batters later, Luke Voit obliterated a three-run home run. The Mets, once up three runs early, never led again ans lost, 12-5, in Game 1 of a Subway Series doubleheader at Yankee Stadium.
Voit's blast began Wheeler's undoing as the righty eventually allowed a career-high nine runs (though only five were earned). In his latest start, Wheeler encountered a familiar problem. He allowed two more homers, both in the same inning -- one to Gio Urshela that tied the game, then Voit's go-ahead blast. "
What else can I say, Wheeler and company stunk up the joint in Game 1. Yankees win... that's it.
Next game is coming. I may or not recap it tonight because I'm running around with the family, but I'll try.
Way to go Yanks! Keep grinding.
