The New York Mets must've hated how it felt to be in second place, as a little over 24 hours later and they are back in the position that they've been in for most of this year. New York defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 6-3 to regain a half game lead in the division. The story of the day was Mets' first-baseman Carlos Delgado, who hit a pair of key home-runs to cut down the deficit and then give the Mets a 4-3 lead.
Johan Santana pitched well enough to keep his club in the ball game, scattering 3 earned-runs in 6 innings pitched. It was the Phillies bullpen which then gave up the game, surrendering 3 runs in the top of the 8th.
The Good: Carlos Delgado 3-4 with 2 HR
The Bad: Phil's closer Brad Lidge, who surrendered 2 runs in 0.1 innings
