Jonathon Niece (Yeah that's right, the same Jonathon Niece that pitches for the Mets), pitched seven superb shut out innings for a much needed win to keep the Mets hot, well for Mets standards at least this has been a hot couple weeks. And this game was all topped off by a two inning save from K-Rod to complete a Mets shut out of the Washington Natinals. To me it seems about right that only Jon Niece can pitch well in only the worst of conditions, during heavy rainfall, and pitch mediocre or awful in perfect condition. All in all, this was a good night for the Mets, as they have one more game against the Nats going into three of the biggest six games of the season for the Mets, considering there is never any other games the Mets have to look forward to. And this may be a very opportune time for the Mets to capitalize on their cross town rivals considering the Yankees are playing just as worse as the Mets have. Also, the Mets COULD win this series, and I can't stress the word COULD enough right now, they COULD win, because right now the Yankees are sucking big time to the point where they can barely win games against the Orioles, even when Bartolo Colon throws a 3-hitter.
So, Finishing Quotes for the Mets:
Jonathon Niece: UP
K-Rod: UP
Mets: UP
