Carlos Beltran Hits 3 Home Runs to Help the Mets Beat the Rockies 9-5

Last Thursday, The Mets beat the Colorado Rockies 9-5, and Carlos Beltran hit 3 2-run homers. -David Wright got the day Thurday off due to a sore neck and back, was in the lineup Friday night, and hit a 2-run homer to put the Mets in the lead, and the Mets came back from a 4-0 deficit to beat the Astros 6-4.

-Ubaldo Jiminez got the loss. He hasn't had a win sinse September 17, 2010, and he 0-5 in this streak. Jiminez only lasted 3.2 innings on Thursday, and hasn't pitched more than 6 innings this season.

- Ike Davis, who left the game on Wednsday in the 5th inning after a collision with David Wright, was placed on the 15-day DL on Friday.

- Jon Niese pitched good, he pitched 6.1 innings allowed 5 earned runs including 2 homers. One to Jonathat Herrera, and one to Todd Helton.

Lets hope Belran could continue swinging a hot bat, because the Mets have to rely on him now that Ike Davis is on the DL.
