"Sorry, John, today you're the bug on the windshield."There, Tookes! All even after yesterday with the rubber match tonight on da ESPN as the Mets went down to the Cubbies, 6-2, yesterday afternoon.
John Maine struggled with his control constantly falling behind Cubs hitters which led to a 6 run 3rd inning where all the Cubs' damage was done with 2 outs. Disappointing outing for Maine who as coming off a 1-hit shutout, albeit a rain-shortened 5 inning one.
The Mets also could only muster 2 runs off of Moises Alou's 2 dingers as Ted Lilly pitched very well for the Cubs constantly getting the Mets with inside 3rd strikes.
Atlanta won, Phillies lost so they flip flop & are now 4.5 & 5 GB, respectively.
Tom Glavine (9-6) going for #300 again faces Jason Marquis (8-6) for the Cubs tonight. Gametime 8:05 EDT.
