VIEW ALL YANKEESFAN'S BLOG ENTRIES
It was a very sad day today in Flushing Queens. The Mets lost and the last game ever at Shea Stadium was played. The Mets fans left the game in the 7th inning. They actually did not leave they were just in a state of shock and it was very quiet. To Quiet!! Shea Stadium had some very class acts over the years like Tom Seaver, Willie Mays, David Cone, Jerry Kooseman, Rusty Staub. Kieth Hernandez... Shall I go on - I should go on; - Tug McGraw, Cleon Jones, Gary Carter, Mookie Wilson, Lee Mazzili, Tommy Agee... OK I'll stop now but I can name many more.
All over the country everyone is talking about the Mets choking again like last year. Seeing Carlos Delgado fly out in the 8th with 2 out, 2 on and 2 behind - how pathetic. David Wright did not fare well in the 9th and I'm really tired of hearing him at the end of each lose sheepishly talk to the press. Today he sounded like a little boy. Well the Brewers are in the playoffs and the Mets can just watch. No post season baseball in NYC for 2008....
On a more happier note - Yankees Pitcher Mike Mussina won his 20th game for the first time and mark my words he will retire now in class. Over in the American Central the White Sox won thus forcing a make up game with the Tigers tomorrow in Chicago. The Tigers can not be happy at all after their pathetic season thinking they can go home and now they have to go and play the White Sox. Now If the White Sox win then they have to play a one game "play in" game against the Twins for the division!! On Tuesday I'll have my pennant predictions and players to watch. Stay tuned!
