I bit my nails all the way through. Joe Smith took the eighth inning and Pedro Feliciano closed in the ninth. Shocking that the Mets could hold on to a one run lead. But what about Eddie Kunz? Earlier in the day Jerry Manuel had said Kunz would be moving up to closer. Hey, a win is a win. I'll take it.

just TRY and blow that lead, bullpen! actually don't, because i wouldn't put it past you. but one solution to our inability to protect slim leads is to make our leads more than slim. great game all around.
