GAME 4: “A Reyes of light…”

GAME 4
J.Ross vs Colon
Mets 8, Nats 3532691057_RRa_TOR_1374

Down 3-0 after 2 1/2 innings of play the Amazin’s looked to have dug themselves into a very deep abyss.  The resiliant team from Flushing  chipped away with a solo run in the 3rd and a 2 spot in the 4th off via a pinch hit double by Justin Ruggiano.  Then in the bottom of the 5th they unleased a 5 run barrage that chased J.Ross from the mound.  It all started by an all too familar bone head play (error) by former mate Dan Murphy and it culminated a 2 run shot by Yoenis Cespedes.  Two batter earlier prodical son Jose Reyes hit a 3 run shot to put New York up for good.  With that 5 run cushion the Mets would play mix and match with their pen.  Eric Goeddel got the win as a reward for 2 perfect innings of relief after Big Sexy managed to only go 4 innings (3 runs).

Series tied 2-2
