IP H R ER BB SO HR PC-ST ERA J Santana 6.0 6 1 1 1 10 1 104-78 0.70 - Bobby Parnell then came in for 2/3 of a inning and Feliciano finished the 7th.
- J.J. Putz then pitched the 8th scoreless.

- The bullpen’s line was this:
Bullpen IP H R ER BB SO HR PC-ST ERA R Parnell (H, 3) 0.2 1 0 0 0 2 0 18-13 2.08 P Feliciano (H, 2) 0.1 0 0 0 0 0 0 5-3 4.50 J Putz (H, 4) 1.0 0 0 0 0 1 0 10-9 3.00 F Rodriguez (S, 4) 1.0 2 2 2 0 1 1 22-14 2.70 Totals 6.0 3 2 2 0 4 1 55-39
My Opinion:
Johan was great. Parnell, Feliciano and Putz all relieved well. Johan had to keep his pitch count lower and get another inning. Franky was wild and not so good. He hadn’t pitched in 6 days so that was a problem.
Player of Game:
Johan Santana for his great day.

Pregame: Nationals at Mets (Series Opener)
Today the Mets (6-9, 4th in NL East, 5 GB) will try to bounce back against the Washington Nationals (3-11, 5th in NL East, 7 GB).
The Lineup:
Gary Sheffield, RF
Fernando Tatis, LF
Ramon Castro, C
Johan Santana, P
The Pitchers:
Scott Olsen
- #19 LHP
- (0-2) 9.00 ERA 10 SO
On Saturday, Olsen was given a five-run cushion after one inning against the Marlins, but he struggled in the top of the second inning, when Ronny Paulino hit a two-run homer. After that, it was smooth sailing. The lefty lasted seven innings and gave up three runs (two earned) on six hits. It was the Nationals’ third straight quality start.
Johan Santana
- #57 LHP
- (2-1) 0.46 ERA 27 SO
Santana leads the National League and is second in the Majors with a 0.46 ERA. Still, the Mets ace is 2-1 and has received a total of four runs of offensive support. Saturday’s win was typical Johan — seven scoreless innings with seven strikeouts — and the Mets’ one run was enough for the win. Santana has been unstoppable this season and didn’t allow a Brewers batter past first base in his most recent start.

Daily Scouting Report: Jackie Robinson
In today’s Daily Scouting Report, I will talk about what it would be like if Jackie Robinson was still alive.
- He would be 90.
- Most likely, Major League Baseball would not have retired his number on every team.
- Most likely, Citi Field doesn’t have a Jackie Robinson Rotunda,
- He would be harassed by the media today.
but what would have happened if he never existed.
- African Americans probably wouldn’t play in any sport which would make basketball very different.
- Hispanics might not be allowed in the MLB which would mean that:
- No Jose Reyes
- No Johan Santana
- No Franky Rodriguez
- No Carlos Delgado
- No Oliver Perez (who I still trust)
- No Livan Hernandez
- No Carlos Beltran
- No Gary Sheffield

Postgame: Mets 2 at Reds 1 (Opening Day)
Today in Cincinnati, the Mets beat the Reds 2-1.
W – Johan Santana (1-0)
L – Aaron Harang (0-1)
S – Francisco Rodrigez (1)
Box Score/Recap
Presented from ESPN.
At the Plate:
- Daniel Murphy hit a solo homer and then later drove in the 2nd run.
- Ryan Church was 2 for 4 with a stolen base.
- Carlos Delgado was 2 for 4 with a walk.
- As a team the mets left 12 men on base. (not good)
On the Rubber:
- Johan Santana went 5 2/3 innings giving up 3 hits, 1 run, struck out 7 but walked 4. He was removed after throwing 99 pitches.
- Sean Green relived Johan and threw a perfect 1 1/3 innings.
- J.J. Putz then pitched the 8th. He walked 11 and struck out 1.
- K-Rod (but would like to be called Franky Rodrigez) pitched a perfect 9th, striking out 1 and earning his first save.
My Thoughts:
They won. That is the important thing. Johan walked too many but hopefully he will rebound. The team left wayyyyyyy too many runners on base.
Player of Game:
I am going to give the player of game to Daniel Murphy.
Up Next:
The Mets are off tomorrow and will play the Reds again on Wednesday with Pelfrey on the mound.

- The Mets beat the Nationals for the first time this spring.
- Daniel Murphy was 3 for 4 against a left handed pitcher.
- Johan went 7 innings giving up 1 run, 4 hits, 0 walks and 6 Ks throwing 75 pitches. (65 for strikes) Probably would’ve gone the distance in a regular season game.
