Mets vs Phillies at Shea Stadium 9-15-07

My friend Ian's Uncle has season tickets to the Mets which are 7 rows from the Mets undeck circle. When he offered the seats to Ian we obviously could not pass them up. Ian, his friend Casey, myself and my old college roommie Mark (Puffy) all went down to the game yesterday. It was raining all morning but by the 1pm gametime the sun was out and it was a really nice early fall day.

Pedro Martinez had 9 strikeouts and left with the Mets winning 3-1 but the bullpen blew it and the Phillies won 5-3 beating the Mets for the 7 straight time.

Here are some pictures from the game. You can click on each pic for a larger version.
