Ryan Howard is a Hard Body

Ryan Howard and Abraham O. Nunez both go for a Reyes pop up behind the pitcher's mound. The two collide with Ryan's right forearm smacking into Nunez's head. He was down for a minute, but stays in the game. Howard drops the ball, and the alert Reyes ends up at second base.

Update: Reyes goes to third on a ground out and scores on a sacrifice fly. The Mets take a 3-2 lead on an unearned run.

Maine did not last long. He gave up five hits and six walks in 4 2/3 innings, but given the Phillies poor timing of their hits, he only allowed two runs.

Update: Howard makes up for the error with a three-run homer off Burgos. The Phillies lead 5-3 in the 7th.

Update: The Mets score in the bottom of the seventh, but a diving catch by Shane Victorino saves the tying run. The Phillies lead 5-4 going to the 8th.

The hard body just went deep, a three-run shot to make it 5-3 Phillies. Howard's first of the year.
