I'm singing in the rain!

Well, actually it sounds more like a cat in distress. Once again the Mets close the season at home against the Marlins. And once again, the Mets seem intent on letting the fish knock them out of the playoffs. A solid combination of ineffective starting pitching, weak hitting with men on base, poor defense, and typical bullpen ineptitude let to a 6-1 defeat. The game got off to an inauspicious start when two batters into the game the Marlins had taken a 1-0 lead. Today's matchup pits my pessimism versus Mother Nature. Let it rain, baby, you can't lose games you don't play. Right? RIGHT?
