World Series Match Up In Spring???

World Series Champions Boston Red Sox traveled to Port St.Lucie today to take on the New York Mets. The Mets got back their big bats from injury to go against the defending champs. Carlos Beltran and Carlos Delgado both made their return to the Mets lineup today. New York also sent out their prize off season acquisition Johan Santana for his third start this spring.

  • Santana went 4 scoreless innings, he struck out 4 of the 15 hitters he faced and walked none. This was his first outing this spring without giving up an earned run.
  • Both Carlos's went hit less in 5 combined at-bats, Delgado had 2 strike outs and Beltran played DH in his first spring outing.
  • Angel Pagan had another hit to add to his spring totals, he also scored the lone Met run in the 8th inning.
  • The game ended in a tie, 1-1 in 10 innings

Pedro was scheduled to pitch tomorrow, but with the Mets taking a long road trip to take on the Red Sox's again he will stay back in camp and pitch another simulated game. Mets will send out Nelson Figueroa to start against the Sox.
