An unimpressive New York Yankee team took the field against the New York Mets in the rubber game of a 3 game series. The pitching staff pitched better than expected, but the offense managed just 3 runs.

By now it's pretty obvious that Aaron Small's magical ride is over and he's turned back into a pumpkin. He dropped to 0-2 on the year when he allowed 4 runs in 4.1 IP. A no-name brigade of un-Yankee like relievers finished off the game by combining for 3.2 hittless, scoreless innings.

Tom Glavine improved to 7-2 with a solid 6 inning, 2 run performance. He scattered 7 hits and 4 walks, but managed to keep the ball in the yard. Billy Wagner, just one day after allowing the Yankees to score 4 runs in .1 innings, made things interesting in the 9th, but ultimately he nailed down the save, his 9th of the year.

Carlos Delgado and David Wright provided most of the offense, each with a home run. Delgado's was a 3 run shot, while Wright's was a solo one. Every Mets' starting offensive player with the exception of Kaz Matsui had exactly 1 hit.

Johnny Damon, Derek Jeter, and Bernie Williams each had 3 hits, but the rest of the line-up that featured Robinson Cano batting fifth, was utterly unimpressive. Alex Rodriguez was 0-4 and left 7 men on base. Kelly Stinnett was 0-4 with 3 k's and 6 men left on base.

Please try to be a little more objective with your recaps.

Tom Glavine hardly had a solid outing. He allowed the leadoff hitter to reach base in three of the first four innings. 12 batters reached base (like you said, 7 hits, 4 walks, and 1 HBP) in six innings of pitching. That's not solid. The fact that he "managed to keep the ball in the yard" had much more to do with the wind than with Glavine's prowess.

As for your comment about a "no-name brigade of un-Yankee like relievers...," what makes them un-Yankee like? Because they pitched well? What? You severely downplayed the fact that the Yankees bullpen kept the Yankees in the game.

Oh, and I'm a die hard Mets fan and tremenous Yankee hater. I expect a certain amount of bias in everything sports-related, but this recap was just ridiculous.
