Game 1: Mets vs. Nationals @ Shea Stadium - Opening Day

Opening Day finally arrived. WIth Pedro hurt, Glavine stepped up big time. Nady goes 4-4 in his first game as a Met and Wright gets off to a fast start with a line drive home run to right. Loduca also makes the play of the game as he hides a bobble from the umpire and the tying run is not allowed to score (Floyd to Reyes to Loduca). Wagner is also showcased and the game ends on a Carlos Beltran assist to second base. Good start for the entire team, played good fundamental baseball. Final Score: Mets 2, Nats 1. Record: 1-0
