Game 106: Mets vs. Nationals @ Shea Stadium

John Maine hopes to continue his recent hot streak as he takes on the Nats in the series finale.

The Good: Reyes and Milledge ignited the offense with a double and an rbi single to put the Mets up for good. Ramon Castro would add a two run homer, his seventh homer of the year, and John Maine would earn a rain-shortened 1-hit shutout. David Wright also had a run-scoring hit of his own and stole his twenty-third base.

The Bad: Milledge caught stealing again.

Overall: I'll take the game but a series split wasn't too great.

Notes: The second one-hit shutout for the Mets this season. Both have come because of rainouts.

2 Cents: Good to see Reyes bounce back with a few hits and a steal after his 0-5; Milledge continues to produce. Ramon Castro also continues to play great as a fill-in while Maine keeps on rollin'. David Wright has also been swinging a decent stick lately.

Final Score: Mets 5, Nationals 0. Record: 59-46.
