Mets Bats Come Alive, Top BrewHaHas, 8-5

Oliver Perez started out slow & according to his catcher, Ramon Castro, "hyper," but eventually settled down & began to pitch well eventually striking out 10 through 6 innings to help lead the Mets to an 8-5 victory over Milwaukee.

Castro homered early for the Mets, Marlon Anderson hit a 3-run homer that gave the Mets the lead for good in the 3rd & Shawn Green hit a solo shot in the 6th off of Manny Parra for the Brewers who pitched really well in 6 2/3 of relief I have to say.

The win has the Mets remaining 3.5 in front of the Braves & 4 GA of the Phillies.

Quick turnaround the Mets as they another afternoon matinée with Jorge Sosa scheduled to go against Chris Capuano for the brewers.
