Alright, let’s put this first game with the Braves behind us.  Even the 7-3 score doesn’t do the blowout justice because the Mets didn’t pick up their three runs until the ninth inning.

Mike Pelfrey was hit hard and he dropped to 0-1.  He gave up four runs on six hits and two walks with three strikeouts in five innings.  Pedro Feliciano gave up three unearned runs to round out the scoring.

Shawn Green hit his second homerun of the season and he drove in two runs.  Moises Alou went two for four with a run and an RBI.

So now it’s time for Oliver Perez to right the ship.  He hasn’t pitched since the eleventh and that was that horrible seven walk game so hopefully he can bounce back.
