Mets win. Mets win. Mets win!!!

I’m exhausted. What a game — four Yankee runs in the first and it looked bad, but a Beltran homer, a Nady homer, Matsui’s ribbie and great bullpen work. And then, with two on and two outs David Wright comes through against Mariano Rivera.

No idea what the next two games will bring, though I can certainly hope for Martinez and Glavine to do what they’ve been doing so well so far. I’m not dopey enough to write off the Yankees, but this is one tough Mets team.

(And the Phillies lost, so it’s back to a three-game lead.)
