Friggin Mets

As I write this, tonight's game has just entered the 6th inning and the Phils have managed just 3 hits against Jason Vargas, he of the .977 opponents' OPS.

This feels worse than the 24-4 beating from the other night. Probably because it's on national TV. The fact that the Phils can't do anything against a pitcher like Vargas is infuriating. The Phils have a chance to move back into first place tonight and they're wasting it.

For whatever reason, the Phillies just can't seem to get out of their own way when it comes to the Mets. And yes, I'll update this if events warrant.

The Phils show signs of life in the 6th. Hoskins singles, Santana homers, and Ramos doubles. Vargas, looking more like Vargas, is out of the game.
