Mets take on Philly

4. July 2008 by Glendo.

After getting a spilt in the 4 games with the Cards the Mets head to Philly for a big 4 game set with the first place Phillies. The Mets showed they can still hit in St. Louis and got another outstanding performance from Mike Pelfrey, the Mets have scored 26 runs in his last two starts. Ryan Church is picking right up where he left off and gives some much to the lineup.

The Mets try and make up some ground on the NL East leaders as they are just 4 games back in the loss column. Johan gets things started to tonight as he tries to get his season back on track. He will face a minor league call up, J.A. Happ.

Happy 4th of July everybody.
