8/28 - Giants 4, Mets 1

Well, 5 and 2 is nothing to sneeze at, considering how crappy the Mets have played on the road. The lack of offense in San Francisco is troubling, but perhaps three days at home against the Wild Card leaders the Phillies will go a long away to setting them back on track. Or setting them back down to .500, who knows with these guys.

I'll still stick with September 12th as the day where we'll know what this team's season will be like.
