Mets 4, Diamondbacks 1: Pelfrey + Davis = Consecutive Wins

It looked like the BABIP monster was going to get the best of the Mets in this one. Most of the lineup was hitting the ball hard, but the Diamondbacks' outfielders in particular had a knack for tracking down everything hit to the outfield. Even a drive to the warning track by Mike Pelfrey was tracked down by Gerardo Parra.
Luckily, the Mets finally broke through for a pair of runs in the bottom of the 7th inning. David Wright drew a leadoff walk, and two outs later, Ike Davis hit a home run to dead center. The ball hit the awkward spot on the fence above the orange line and wasn't a originally ruled a home run, but a quick replay review by the umpires corrected the call. It'd be nice if the Mets had cut down that portion of the wall when they adjusted the home run line after 2009.
Pelfrey had his longest outing of the season thus far, giving up only 1 run in 7 innings pitched while striking out 4 and only issuing 2 walks. Only 3 of his 13 other outs came on the ground, but the most of the fly balls he allowed were relatively harmless. The only one that did harm was a bloop single in the third inning that scored Arizona's only run.
The Mets added two insurance runs in the eighth inning thanks to some laughable play by the Diamondbacks. Jose Reyes reached on an error, Daniel Murphy singled, and a wild pitch advanced both baserunners. Reyes appeared to jam his pinky on a head-first slide into third base on the play, but there was no sign of serious injury during the short remainder of the game. Wright proceeded to draw another walk to load the bases, and Carlos Beltran drilled a single through the hole between first and second base, plating Reyes. With the bases still loaded and nobody out, Jason Bay struck out and Davis popped up weakly, but Ryan Roberts botched what should have been an inning-ending ground ball off the bat of Mike Nickeas, giving the Mets another run.
The well-rested bullpen was quite effective in relief of Pelfrey. Prior to Arizona's comedy of errors, Jason Isringhausen pitched an easy 1-2-3 eighth inning. Francisco Rodriguez came on to pitch the ninth inning, and although he walked a batter, he struck out two and earned the save.

Good win against a team that usually owns us
As for Frankie’s vest…. Ted Berg puts it best:

Is Yahoo correct?
With the groundball:flyout ratio at 3:16? Because that’s kinda qweird for Pelf, and not exactly an encouraging sign.

He seemed to change his approach today.
He was firing a lot of high fastballs, getting the D-Backs to chase the ball upstairs. My guess is that he decided to take advantage of his home park and a relatively free-swinging lineup.

Very encouraging start by Pelf
It looked like we were getting another bad start by Pelfrey, after the lead off triple , but he settled down and got out the jam. He was in total control from then on. We can hope this start gets Pelfrey on a roll..

maybe you're quoting a movie or something
I’m often lost when you all start quoting movies. But I don’t get why Pelf is confused, like he doesn’t know if he’s supposed to pitch or not. It’s because he’s been so bad to this point – like, is he still in the rotation?

Pelfrey sick = Win
From the AP article:
"I didn’t feel great, that’s probably a big part of it. I didn’t do too much," said Pelfrey, who threw up but swallowed it while on the mound. "While I was in the bullpen I said, ‘I’m just going to throw strikes. I don’t feel great. We’re going to grind through this and we’re going to get through it."

he could have just spat it out on the mound and the grounds crew would take care of it, cover it with dirt. But it apparently helped. Bottle it and force the whole team to Pelf up.

Some questions about the game (I was watching the Sabres beat the Flyers in OT)
Did Pridie play the whole game? How did he look?
There was a picture on Yahoo of Beltran missing a sliding catch. Was it catchable?
David Wright’s error: Was it bad?
Save Jenrry Mejia!
He did play the whole 9
I missed his misplay in the first since I was watching Jeopardy, but I saw him miss on a dive later on. That one wasn’t too pretty. Luckily, he made all the routine plays later on. Beltran’s came pretty close to making that catch; I don’t think it was a matter of his legs, the ball just dropped in a half-second too soon. Wright’s error was wind-aided but still bad.
"And that's why anybody who invested with Lenny Dykstra should really call that number. Lawyers are standing by."
by BobbyV_Incognito on Apr 23, 2011 2:50 AM EDT up reply actions
....
1) Pridie played the whole game. Didn’t look great with the bat, as he struck out looking on 3 pitches in his first AB. In the field, the leadoff triple went over his head and he took a funny angle, then had it play him off the wall. With Young’s speed, it’s probably a triple even if he gets the ball quickly off the wall, but they at least would’ve had a play on him.
2)From where I was sitting, I couldn’t tell if Beltran overslid the ball or if he came up short, but it was basically a dying quail out to the RF. In his prime Beltran would’ve gotten there, though (even though in his prime Beltran would’ve been in CF).

Oh...
3)Wright basically missed a popup on the infield. Not sure if it was really wind aided (it wasn’t all that windy there) but he looked as if he just overran it and then couldn’t lean back far enough to make up for it (he had a similar adventure with a foul ball in the first inning but in foul territory, which he caught having to lean all the way back).

Mike Nickeas
Is it still too much of a small sample size for me to develop a man crush on him? He takes walks, he guns down baserunners, he hit a home run the other night, his AB music is The Black Keys….I like what I see so far.
Also, that CF fence is so stupid. I was at the game and sitting in RF and had a perfect view of Davis’ hit, and yet it didn’t even occur to me that it might be a HR until I saw the replay. Either way, I would like to thank Kirk Gibson for his brainfart in leaving the righty in to face Davis.
