Alone In 1st

This afternoon saw the end of a rousing 3-game series between the 1st place tied Phillies & Mets. Mets lost on Tuesday putting Philadelphia in first, won last night to retie for the lead, and won today to go one game up. Mets have now won the last four series against the Phils, their main competition for the division championship. It was an interesting few games, Mets bullpen meltdown as the Phils score 6 in the 9th to win the first game, some nasty words on the field from Phillies pitcher Moyer directed at Delgado, and the Philadelphia station announcers actually called Jose Reyes "crap" as he rounded the bases after his game winning homerun in game 2. Should keep it interesting for the rest of the year.

So for the first time since April 19th the Mets are alone in first place. Let's see how long it lasts.
