Mets aren't all Wright
Hard to get too upset at David Wright for making mistakes since he's such a good player, but when they happen at a time when the Mets need to get back on the beam, it sucks.
Wright's error in the field gave the Padres a 3-2 lead and another baserunning error -- getting picked off first on a flyout -- only added to the Mets' misery. Pedro Martinez, despite allowing two first-inning solo home runs, actually pitched pretty well for 6 1/3 innings, allowing four hits and three walks with three strikeouts.
Pedro Feliciano got out of the jam in the seventh -- he's looking like the most reliable option in the bullpen -- but Eddie Kunz allowed a solo shot in the eighth.
Dan Murphy had a three-hit game, including a triple, batting second in the order. Carlos Beltran and Carlos Delgado went a combined 0-for-8 as the lowly Padres improved to 5-1 against the Mets this season. Still waiting for Beltran's bat to get hot.
Beat the bad teams. You have to do it to have a winning season, and so far, the Mets aren't doing that.
