Mets 7, Indians 6 (Game 64)

Quick Notes:

***Your National League RBI leader? Yeah, you guessed it. #5 is back. And does it feel good or what?

*** Johan gets run support. But it wasn't entirely the offense's doing. Credit comically bad defense on Cleveland's part. For instance, here was your 5th inning sequence of events:

- base hit
- bunt, no one covers first
- bunt, 2nd baseman covers first late, catcher scrambles and throws the ball down the right field line
- infield single scores two runs as first baseman looks confused and oblivious to his surroundings
- 2-run home run caps it off, and the Mets roll from there

...yeah, that's pretty much Cleveland Indians baseball in a nutshell. It's "Major League" all over again. Do I reference that movie too much? I think yes.

***K-Rod is unbearably frustrating.

***The Mets pull within 1/2 game of first place Atlanta.
