What a Difference A Win Against the Yankees Makes

I'm tempted to point out how bad the Yankees are this year instead of praising the Mets, but that's taking negativity a bit too far. The Mets won; Johan pitched well; David Wright, Carlos Beltran, and even Carlos Delgado got clutch hits. Billy Wagner shut down the Yanks after giving up a couple of unlucky hits. Even Willie did a good job by letting Santana go 7 2/3, then bypassing his middle guys and going straight to Wagner for a four-out save. My problem with Willie isn't his motivational skills, but his tactical blunders. There were none today. Good win, Mets!
