ESPN.com – MLB – Recap
For the New York Mets, it was a grand slam of an inning.First, Cliff Floyd homered with the bases loaded. Then, Carlos Beltran did the same. After David Wright added a two-run shot, New York had 11 runs — the most in a single inning in club history.
“It was just amazing to keep going like that. You never think you’re going to score 11 runs in one inning,” Floyd said Sunday night after Mets’ sixth-inning outburst sent them to a 13-7 victory over the Chicago Cubs.
It was one of those hot summer nights at Wrigley Field where the wind is blowing out and the ball is flying over the wall.
Ok I’m not a Mets fan, but my dad is. And this morning in talking to him he was all excited and wanting to know if I had watched the game. And since I had been watching the A’s smack around the Red Sox… I missed it. But from between what he said and the ESPN write up, it was some game. I wonder… could the Met’s be a challenge agaiun this year… it’s looking like it.
Two Grand Slams and a Home Run in one inning… I have never heard of that. I would hope that pitcher was benched.
