Angels 3, Mets 5
Mets fans are truly awful. At one point in tonight's game a cascade of boos came from the Shea Stadium crowd in response to a Carlos Beltran flyout.
Speaking of Beltran, have I ever mentioned how glad I am that we didn't sign that guy? That was exactly the thought that popped into my head while watching Steve Finley's 40-year old legs turn a double into a game-tying inside-the-park homerun. And I had the same thought when watching Carlos Beltran pull a homerun back over the wall going the other way.
It was another rough outing for Frankie, with a blown save to show for it. Though, in my eyes, this was his best performance since being activated. His slider (yes - he threw the slider!) was sharp, and his control was good outside of one grooved fastball to Marlon Anderson (the aforementioned homerun). I'm finally convinced that he's healthy, which is good for my peace of mind.
