I'm a believer ...

That was different too, wasn't it? Lost a game the night before when the bullpen (okay, Heilman) imploded. Then today we had the familiar 'failure to get the big hit' where the Mets leave a ton of runners on base. Yes, everything was going according to the plans the Mets have been playing by all season. Until.

Until the bottom of the 8th. Broxton comes in to begin the Dodgers' one-two lock-down at the end of games. Wright the double and then Beltran ties the game. Just like that and the 'new Mets' showed how different they are from the 'old Mets'. Then Delgado gets a hit. Talk about 'new'. Will sends in Evans to run for Delgado, which surprised me because the bench was so thin. I thought he'd use a pitcher (which I have to admit I don't like), but no he went with Evans.

Easley the bunt, Schneider the intentional walk and up steps the face of the 'new Mets': Fernando Tatis. Tatis delivered - again - and the Mets had the lead. No more runs, but that's all right because Wagner was really dealing in the 9th. 1-2-3, all K's. And another come-from-behind win. Two in a week.

Oh yeah. One other thing was different about yesterday. Pelfrey struggled early, but he found his rhythm. He retired the last 12 to keep the Mets in the game and give them the chance to come from behind to win. Great job by Pelfrey.
