The Mets needed twelve innings but they got it done tonight in a 2-1 win over the Rockies.  Shawn Green scored on Endy Chavez’s bunt singled in the bottom of the twelth to win it.  Just as important, Damian Easley hit a huge solo homerun in the tenth just to keep the game going.

Orlando Hernandez had an awesome start and he threw seven shutout innings.  Then Aaron Heilman threw a shutout frame until Billy Wagner put the Rockies down in the ninth. Unfortunately, Wagner was tagged for the lone run in the tenth.  Joe Smith ended up with his first win though as he got the final two Rockies out.

The Mets can pick up the sweep tomorrow with Mike Pelfrey on the mound.  I like our chances as long as Pelfrey can go six innings or so.  The pen is pretty tapped.
