Chapter 62.2: Not So Good

Well, the Mets lost two of three. Worse things could have happened, and it was good to see the Mets score some runs again. But while the Mets retain first place, they shouldn't assume that this season is theirs for the taking. There are more than 90 games to go, and that's more than enough space for the Braves, or Phillies, or even the Marlins to supplant the Mets atop the NL Eastern Division. We've lost, but it's on to the next game. And on the way toward October.
