1ST GAME AT CITI FIELD
We arrived to the stadium after walking from a parking lot a few blocks away we realized it was very windy. The home runs proved we were right when there was 5 home runs hit in this game. This park is known for a pitcher especially since the outfield is very big. Ike Davis and Rod Barajas both hit two home runs for the Mets. The Mets were up 4-1 going into the 5th when the Giants put 2 runs on the board on a double and a ground out. Ike Davis made a terrific play by catching the ball and doing a 360 over the Mets railing. K-ROD was ready to come in and get the save when John Bowker(SF) crushed the ball in the upper deck to tie it 4-4. Rod Barajas ended the game in the 9th inning with a walk off home run to win the game.
