Rockies 9, Mets 8

Coors Field. No sir, I don't like it. The Mets got Tom Glavine a 7-0 lead. He left the game having only surrendered three runs despite giving up nine hits and three walks in six innings while striking out four. The bullpen couldn't hold the lead and pretty soon it was 9-8 heading to the ninth inning. These kind of things, they don't happen in normal ballparks. Well they do, but they seem unusual when they happen. In Denver it's just another day at the freak show.

Mike Piazza hit two home runs and walk for three runs and three RBI. Roberto Alomar had three hits, including a double, and walk, scoring once and driving in one as well. Ty Wigginton had three hits including another triple and three RBI. Glavine, Roger Cedeno and Tony Clark all had doubles. And yet, the Mets lost.

Every time the Mets get themselves a modest winning streak going, they manage to blow it in the most spectacular fashion imaginable. Hopefully they'll be able to pick up the pieces tomorrow before heading to San Francisco for the weekend. Jae Seo (1-2, 3.43) takes on Darren Oliver (1-2, 5.79).
