Three pitches...Three homers...
One stunned blogger.
I'm lost. I can't even fathom this right now. Three home runs on three straight John Maine pitches to the 7-8-9 hitters in the order?
On a team that came into the game second to last in all of baseball in home runs?
And the pitcher flips his bat after the third home run without eating the batters box in his next at-bat? Oh, and let me reiterate that the last time this guy hit a home run was high school.
High school?
The same pitcher that now has two career wins, and both against the Mets?
Dae Sung Kuo against the rest of the league, Hong Chih Kuofax against the Mets. Phenomenal.
It's gotten so bad that Hilary Swank doesn't want to be seen in her Mets hat anymore, as she was during Monday's game. Perhaps she used it to wipe Alyssa Milano's blood off the floor after a particularly heated Mets/Dodgers argument. Now that would be a more anticipated matchup than Jorge Sosa vs. Brad Penny.
But here's the good news, the Mets are on the cover of Sports Illustrated this week. At this point, what's left to jinx?
