Game #149: Phillies 16, Mets 1

There are no words that can ease the pain of this one.

Philadelphia had 21 hits, New York had 3. The Phillies scored 16 runs, the Mets scored 1.

The Bad Stuff:

• Everything.

The Good Stuff:

• Nothing.

Final Analysis:
It's not like New York had anything left to lose after last night's soul-crusher. But tonight? Philly left town with a sweep and any shred of pride the Mets had left. Yesterday I said I wouldn't be surprised if New York didn't win a single game the rest of the year. Still think that's such an impossibility?

And if it weren't bad enough, now hear this: Keith Hernandez is shaving his mustache next Thursday. God help us all.
