Game 7 Double Play
I posted video of Shawn Green‘s great double play in game 1 of the NLDS against the Dodgers so it’s only fair that I post video of Endy Chavez‘s even more exciting double play from game 7 of the NLCS against the Cardinals. The Mets may have lost the series but there are definitely several […]

The Mets got a much needed win last night behind some good pitching and timely hitting. Steve Trachsel only mistake was Barry Bonds 710th career home run in the second inning. Beyond that Trachsel was solid.
