0 commentsTom Glavine only went 4 1/3 innings, but the New York Mets bats remained hot as the they continue to distance themselves from the pack with a 9-7 win over the second place Philadelphia Phillies tonight. Glavine took a lead into the 5th inning, but was lifted for Chad Bradford who was terrific, ending that inning in a 4-4 tie. Then the floodgates opened. The Mets sent 11 men to the plate in the 6th inning scoring five runs to make the lead 9-4. A three run homer by David Dellucci, against Aaron Heilman made it interesting at the end, but Billy Wagner earned his 13th save, helped by a terrific double play initiated by David Wright in the 9th. The Mets have now won 6 in a row, 8 out of their last 10, and have extended their lead in the NL East to 7 1/2 games.
