Games of the Day

The Mets haven't generated much offense in the last two games against the Braves, and they may not need to this afternoon as Pedro Martinez takes the mound against Mike Hampton. Mike hasn't pitched in six weeks, but was having a great season before his injury. He has not allowed a run since May 3rd. Pedro's pitching against the Braves this season is right around his season averages; a high 2's ERA, lots of strikeouts and few walks.

The other superb matchup takes place in St. Louis where potential All-Star starter Roger Clemens takes on the actual All-Star starter Chris Carpenter. Roger's only allowed 2 home runs in his last 41 innings, over which time he has a 1.10 ERA. Carpenter's matched that (in 41 2/3 innings) and his ERA since 6/14 is just 0.43.

Enjoy!

You can find seats for these and other events at the Baseball Musings Ticket Store.
