Baseball is a funny game, I was thinking tonight was almost an automatic loss. Cardinals ace Adam Wainwright on the mound with a 25 inning scoreless streak going againt the Mets team scoreless streak, it was a recipe for disaster.

But that’s why they play the games. The Mets once again have turned the switch on at home. After one of the worst road trips in recent memory the Mets bounced back and beat the Cards 8-2 tonight.

Jon Niese was great lowering his ERA to 3.43 and earning his 7th win of th year. Power was supplied early by Jeff Francoeur and then Jose Reyes.

It was remarkable, I kept saying to myself who is this team? The Braves lost tonight so the Mets gain a game. Now I know some of you out there are going to say Jerry was suspended and that’s why they won, without him at the helm. I’m pretty sure Jerry was still pretty much running the team the entire game though. I don’t think Jerry is the problem though.

Here’s what’s going to happen, the Mets will go on another nice winning streak, sucker us all in again and BAM let us down again down the stretch. Of course, I hope this isn’t the case but I have to constantly prepare myself for the worst, I’m a Pessimet naturally.
