Game 19: Mets vs. Cubs @ Wrigley Field

Nelson Figueroa takes his show on the road to Chicago.

The Good: Figueroa at least gave us a chance to win by allowing three runs over five innings. Not much aside from that though.

The Bad: As usual, the Met offense made a slumping pitcher, Ted Lilly, look like Cy Young tonight. Furthermore, Sosa was the culprit tonight, instead of Heilman, as he allowed a grand slam to Ronny Cedeno. However, "the Mets might have gotten out of the eighth before Cedeno came up, but Jose Reyes chose to throw home rather than start what appeared to be a tailor-made, inning-ending 6-4-3 double play (Yahoo! Sports)."

Overall: Ronny Cedeno!?

Final Score: Mets 1, Cubs 8. Record: 10-9.
