It was perfect football weather -- in late April. Winds gusting over 30, sun obscured by low clouds.
And the resurgent Mets ran their winning streak to seven, capping a homestand where they won 9 of 10 games with a 10 - 5 win over the Dodgers.
This was our first game sitting in the upper (promenade) deck. Sure, it's the top of the stadium, but being nearly behind home plate pays off in a better view of the field.
The Mets jumped on the scorboard with four second inning runs. Here, a double scorched to deep left by Alex Cora.
Below, Mets rookie Ike Davis wonders whether this is worth swinging at. He took this pitch, then flied out to center field.
The Mets' turnaround has featured strong pitching. Today, it was John Maine's turn to impress -- with nine strikeouts.
Only one question, with things going so well for the resurgent boys of Flushing, why does Mister Met look so worried?
