| The series resumes in New York, and the croud at Shea is treated to a real thriller as the lefties Chuck James and Tom Glavine do battle. They weren't too thrilled with the final score however. The Mets draw first blood in the 3rd inning when Moises Alou beats out a possible inning ending double play grounder after James had issued three straight walks to load the bases, enabling a run to score. The Braves tie the game in the 5th on a solo homerun for Brian McCann, and the score stays tied for 5 more innings. In the top of the 11th Willie Harris singles and Edgar Renteria bunts him to second base. After a foulout and intentional walk, McCann strikes again ripping a base hit scoring Harris fron second. With Rafael Soriano being used for the 6th and 7th innings, Peter Moylan comes in for the save attempt and retires three straight Mets. The Mets will try to tie the series in game 4, sending Oliver Perez to the mound to battle the Braves' Buddy Carlyle. |
