Can’t complain about a walk to Pujols. Keeps the bat out of his hands.

Bad mojo going.

Floyd leaves with a bad achilles, then a couple of hits — including one by the pitcher. And now the top of the order.

Time for Glavine to bear down.

And then the line drive double play and the mojo recedes.

Weaver’s foot robs a hit from Wright. Ugh.

The key, ultimately, is getting five a game from the starters and taking advantage of Cardinal mistakes. Mistakes, though, are likely to be few — LaRussa’s teams always play the right way.

I like the Mets’ balance and I have to wonder about the Cards’ bullpen, which did very well against the Padres. But the Padres were the weakest offensive team in the playoffs. The Mets were the best in the NL.

I’m confident, but I am a Mets fan. So, I’m always on edge.
