6/30 - Mets 5, Phillies 3

My co-blogger Mike pretty much summed up what happened in the game that I was going to write (I knew Beltran was coming back) after my work meeting wrapped up, so I guess I don't need to add anything.

I'll be taking a break from the Mets season for the next three days, as I'll be balls-deep in problems down in Philadelphia, working on the U.S. radio broadcast of--and somehow at the same time reporting on--Live 8. On the plus side, I have Friday night off with nothing to do, so I've scored a ticket to see the Phillies and Braves at Citizen's Bank Ballpark. So at some time next week I'll write about my trip to enemy territory. Mike will handle the play-by-play for the Marlins series. I'll be back for Monday's game against the Nationals.
