Sweeping the series. But it didn't happen. The Mets bats got shut down tonight by 22-year-old minor league Yankee pitcher Tyler Clippard.
The Mets had a rhythm going into this series and it carried them through until tonight. Friday night's win by Oliver. Saturday's wild ride where they were able to win with a recipe of warm bats, mixed with a healthy serving of capitalizing on the Yankee's defensive mistakes. Yum, delish. Two wins delish.
Tonight was not quite like that. It was a quiet game. Not much cookin' for the Mets. The one rallying moment was a lone home run by hot buns himself... David Wright. It wasn't even that the Yankees defense was all that. Bottom line: Fresh meat Clippard sliced us and diced us.
At least tomorrow night the Empire State Building will be marinated in blue and orange.
