Game Recap: Mets 7 – Phillies 5

For the past two days, Francisco Rodriguez was supposed to get a night off.  Tonight, he tallied his fourth save in four days.

The New York Mets (14-13) beat the Philadelphia Phillies (14-12) by a score of 7-5.

The Mini Recap

Mike Pelfrey went seven strong, helped out by a great showing from the bats early.  Scattered eight hits, walked one and actually struck out no batters.  Pedro Feliciano allowed a two-run home run after a botched call that would have ended the inning.  Rodriguez issued a two-out walk, but closed out the game for the win.

Home runs from Carlos Beltran, David Wright and Jose Reyes in the first two innings helped the Mets put five runs on the board.  A two-run double from Ramon Castro brought home two more.
