Mets beat the Cardinals 4-1

The Mets again beat the Cardinals for the second straight game, and if you were watching The Cardinals don't match up to The Mets at all..

• Orlando Hernandez: started the game for The Mets and was amazing. El Duque pitched 7 innings giving up just 1 run, and had a big night with the bat as he went 2 for 3 with 2 RBI's.

• Jose Reyes: was 1 for 4 with 2 runs scored, and his first stolen base of the season.

• Carlos Beltran: Beltran went 1 for 3 with an RBI and stole his first base of the season.

• David Wright: Wright went 1 for 2 and showed a good eye at the plate with 2 walks.

• Scott Schoeneweis: Made his Mets debut today for The Mets. Scott came in for the 8th inning but after giving up a hit and walking a batter was taken out for Aaron Heilman who then got Albert Pujols out to end the inning.

• Billy Wagner: Wagner made it nice and simple tonight pitched a scoreless inning with no walks and no hits, and got his first save of the season.

~So yeah this starting rotation is just horrible combined 13 innings pitched 2 runs just horrid. And this old lineup they are having a very difficult time getting runs as they only have scored 10 in the 2 games they've played.

John Maine gets the start tomorrow against former Met relief pitcher Braden Looper, and really it's a game The Mets should again dominant. This Mets starting rotation was called horrible all off-season and I know its only 2 games but Glavine, and Duque looked great. Also wow The Cardinals have a really bad starting rotation. Now Chris Carpenter is hurt for them, and the starting rotation now looks like Wells,Looper,Wainright,Reyes, Pray for rain.That starting rotation makes The Mets rotation look untouchable.
