Major Victory in War On Black Mets Uniforms (VH Day)

With the Mets taking the field in pinless uniforms with blue caps this makes a complete non-black homestand.

The Mets wore blue caps for each game and either the pinstriped or pinless uniforms.  No hybrid caps were seen, nor were the black jerseys.

It is believed this is the first such occurrence of this century.  There is still a war on the road to be won, and black could always show up next homestand…but for now we celebrate in the streets and cheer the name of Kevin Kierst.

VA Day (Victory in Away Uniforms Day) and total victory will not be won in 2011, but this is a major victory on the homefront.

Enjoy VH Day!

Mets 24: meaningful games in May?

Not really too much to say.  This homestand was a disaster.  4-9 means you’re a 5 game winning streak away from .500.  It’s hard to be excited tonight unless you are a Boston Red Sox fan with a #7 jersey.

At least we had the black-less homestand and tomorrow is Ron Hodges Day.  25,578 in case you’re wondering.

And so the nightmare 24 (and a half) hours ends.

Mets 24: this ain’t going so well


At least it ended with some fun.

Three games in 24 hours. Shaky pitching. Unclutch fielding. Unclutch hitting.

I find myself wondering about meaningful games in late April.

5-8 is manageable. 4-9 is worrisome.

Thoughts?

Hopefully my next post will be a happy one.
