The Mets were down by a run in the ninth down in Arizona when the tide turned against D-Backs closer Jose Valverde. Damion Easley hit a go ahead three run home run. David Wright hit another three run home run to put them atop 9-4. Earlier in the game, Carlos Beltran hit a monster shot for his 7th of the year.

Tomorrow night, it's Randy Johnson against John Maine.

Two Met homers to cap a comeback? Damn! I hate the west coast time. I was sleeping at 10pm est. I guess i'll check out MLB.com and get the highlights. I suppose it's safe to say that David Wright is back ok track.

With that walk-off, I would say so.

[EmpireWF]

Wasn't a walk-off, just adding more runs to the lead.

But it was a good sign as he hit the dinger to the opposite field.

Thank god the Mets don't have the run of bad luck the Yankees are having, with a huge list of injured hamstrings and shoulders.

I woudn't say that exactly. The Mets are missing Pedro and El Duque and Moises Alou is playing hurt. Besides, the Yanks injuries are mostly the young kids who are there because they're bodies (with the exception of Hughes, of course).

But I wouldn't argue about who has the tougher list of injuries...lol, perhaps the Twins.

The Mets just have players that aren't doing their jobs. Obviously Wright and Delgado head the list but pencil in Paul LoDuca as well. And I was against the signing of Alou because he's injury prone and old and now he'll be playing hurt for a while so his production will be way down. Ironically the supposed weak point for the Mets, the starting pitching has kept them in most of these games. Maine is a god, Perez has been great, Glavine is typical Glavine and when/if Pelfrey stops walking batters he'll be top notch as well. I look forward to the return of El Duque and of course Pedro but the Met bats have to wake up and wake up soon.

Nuke, how can you say Alou is not producing? He's batting .348 and has 12 RBIs.

Shawn Green has been great so far, he's hitting .351 with 18 RBIs.

I agree, you'd like to see Paul Lo Duca get his BA and OBP up. I'm positive Wright will right the ship (pun intended).

Alou is always hurt that's what I mean, he's undependable. As for Wright, it's clear that major league pitchers have figured him out now and that he's the next Bernard Gilkey. Wright is a dud and his career is over at age 24. I only wish I could tell him this to his face.
