Mets Defeated by Yankees

In a close game last night the Mets narrowly lost to the Yankees after a grand slam by Yankees' Justin Wood sent the score from 4-2 to 4-6. Somehow, the Mets could not seem to get their bats going even after an early out of the park hit by Brandon Waller.

On a fun note, tonight was Austin Lindsey's birthday and the team celebrated with cupcakes after the game! Happy 13th birthday Austin.

Some great fielding was seen last night by Austin Lindsey, Josh Latham, Tommy Stone and Montrez Frey.

Pitchers for this game were Jarret Ray and Jacob Hunsicker. Great job guys!!

Final score for the game was 8-6 Yankees. Pictures from last night's game can be seen here.

Mets Rack Up Another Win

Tonight's game against Ashland City went really long, two hours and five minutes, but the Mets walked away victorious with a score of 19-6 over the opposition. Everyone got hits and fielded well. In the last inning, there was some switching around and folks got to play infield that often play outfield. It was good to have Webb back playing tonight. Jacob Hunsicker pitched the majority of the game with Brandon Waller closing it out. Trevor Vanicor made an awesome hit tonight as well. Way to go, Trevor!!

Sorry the pix aren't great. Many were deleted due to being too blurry so if you remember me taking a photo and it's not here -- it's gone. I'll get more at our next Saturday game (May 30) as it will be earlier in the afternoon. The ones I kept can be seen here.

Keep doing a great job, Mets!! See you all at practice Tuesday at 7 p.m.

Mets Squeeze Out Another Win over the Padres

What a fun game this game was against the Padres. The Mets led most of the game until the last inning when the score went from 11-1 to 11-8 in just a matter of a few minutes.

However, with the excellent pitching of Austin Lindsay, the team was able to get three outs and end the ballgame with a win! Great job, Mets!!

Unfortunately, Jacob Waffird and Webb McCasland were unable to play in tonight's game. Jacob got bit by a dog injuring his hand pretty badly and Webb had a bike wreck that damaged some teeth. We hope you guys are feeling better already and will be able to play Mets baseball again soon!!

Photos from this game are located here. As you all know, my camera is broken so I'm doing the best I can to make sure we get photos for the rest of the year. Anyone who has any pictures they've taken and would like me to share with everyone else or use in the book can burn me a CD and I'll upload them to our blog.

Mets Successful in Second Round Against Yankees

In the Mets second match-up against the Yankees, they were once again successful, winning with a score of 9-2. Despite a ball-game starting hit out of the park by opponent Dallas Brooks, the Mets rallied their bats and were able to score 4 in the first inning.

Pitcher Jacob Hunsicker zoomed the ball across the plate so fast, it was hard to see or hit by the Yankees.

Awesome job, Mets. Keep up the good work you are doing in each game!!

There were no pictures from tonight's game due to the late time of the game. Photos will return on Saturday's game against the Padres.
