Another late blown lead by Mets. They were up by 2 after 7. Rollins singled in a run in 8th and Bruntlett tied it with a 2-out RBI double. All this against Phillies who will go half a game ahead if thy win tonight.

Everyone is blaming this on the bullpen, but I have a different take..............

The offense did not score a run for 9 innings..that is essentially being shut out!

Pedro gave up 5 runs after being given a 7 run lead!

the bullpen gave up lucky hits in the 8th and 9th to blow it, but pitched scoreless frames in teh 6th, 7th, 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th. albeit nerveracking almost each one of them, but they held the Phillies off the board.


so i blame Pedro for not holding down Rob Deer reincarnated in Ryan Howard and allowing Jimmy Rollins to channel his career 2007 year by getging 5 hits.

I also blame the offense for forgetting how to hit clutch once again..thinking back to how they were before July....

ugh, this is going to be a long september!

This is the 1st time Pedro had a 7 run lead and failed to record a W. He was 47-0 when staked to a 7-0 lead before last night.

this is why it is safe to say that Pedro is Pedro no more
