Game 2: Mets vs. Nationals @ Shea Stadium

We got off to a great start tonight but ended sour. Bannister was hitless through 5 and then a three run shot by Nick Johnson ruined it. Anderson Hernandez with an amazing catch in this game. With his back towards the infield, he sprawled himself across the outfield with a beautiful dive. Carlos Delgado also hit a bomb to put us ahead. However, Wagner couldn't shut the door in the ninth as he gave up the tying homerun on a high fastball to Ryan Zimmerman. Wags also didn't seem to have his best stuff. Julio stunk it up in the 10th and we weren't able to recover. This is what we traded Kris & Anna Benson for? A game we should have won. Final score: Mets 5, Nats 9. Record: 1-1.
