Game one of Skid's season at Citi. August 31th - GAME #137 vs Philadelphia Phillies (62-73)
Dillon Gee (5-6) vs A.J. Burnett(7-14)

64-73

Anthony Recker's 3-Run home run gave Dillon Gee a victory to even his record at 6-6. The Mets banged out 11 hits, all but three were singles. The Mets win keeps the Phillies in last place.

Got home from church and grocery shopping in the afternoon and did not want to invest the time to watch a whole game so I peeked at the score online. That is something I rarely do. Since it was a victory I watched the inning that Recker got his home run and that was all.
