NEW YORK -- With a performance they borrowed from their own scripts from the first half of last season, the Mets produced a mental health victory on Friday night. They scored early, they scored often and Tom Glavine was the winning pitcher. Sound familiar? On what was the most joyous evening that Shea Stadium has seen in more than a month, the Mets beat the Athletics, 9-1, and Glavine finally resumed his ascent toward 300 career victories. Glavine was primarily responsible for the win, which put his career total at 296 and ended his winless streak at five starts. Not only did he pitch into the ninth inning for the first time since his last start of 2005, he also doubled and scored the Mets' second run in the third inning and drove in two runs with a single in a five-run rally in the sixth that all but determined the outcome. The victory in the first regular-season game between the Mets and A's was just the Mets' fifth win in 19 games and their sixth in 13 Interleleague games. And it marked the fourth time in five series they have won the first game of a series. It seemed like a renaissance for them in more ways than one. Glavine (6-5) had been routed in his two previous starts, losing both. The game also produced home runs by Carlos Beltran and Shawn Green, their firsts since June 6 and May 15, respectively. Beltran drove in Jose Reyes in the first inning and hit his 10th home run, with the bases empty, in the seventh. Green had a bases-empty home run off A's starter Lenny DiNardo (2-4) leading off the fifth, and he hit a double in the sixth off Colby Lewis to drive in the last two runs charged to the losing pitcher. But the evening belonged to Glavine. He allowed six hits and two walks and struck out one before a leadoff single by Eric Chavez prompted manager Willie Randolph to summon Aaron Heilman. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 125.225.97.114 ※ 編輯: ian055211 來自: 125.225.97.114 (06/23 12:49)
