The New York Mets have probably had one of the strangest seasons in MLB history from dropping fly balls to lose games, endless errors, and a disabled list that might be longer than the current health care bill.
Well, yesterday they found a way to lose a game that has not been done since 1925. They lost on an unassisted triple play. The score in the bottom of the 9th was 9-7 in favor of the Phillies however the Mets had two men on base with no outs.
Then Jeff Francoeur stepped to the plate and lined a ball that landed in Phillies infielder Jason Bartlett's glove where he subsquently recorded the final two outs. Yep, that's the Mets season in a nutshell and I guess not even the new Citi Field cannot make the loss look any better.
