Cliff Lee in a playoff audition,
Gave four runs, not a pleasing edition.

And team by a bad pitcher was bested.
A post-clinching let down condition.

Big Joe kept blanks coming through six,
Park and Madson added two to the mix.

Jason Werth SLAMMED through GRAND gate,
and the Champs polished win-again tricks.

Hamels blanked Pirates through eight.
Champs up 1-0 on Utley’s big tate.
But Dog let it slip
on a game-tying rip,
and H-bomb again saved Phils’ fate.

Champs down 1-0 after five,
when Chase the Mace unleashed a long drive.
When it came down the Phils were ahead,
and the ailing Mets were near dead
Hot Phillies continue to thrive.

King Cole’s body language all wrong,
a sour-note, season-long song.
When his head’s in a whirl
how can he hurl
as we’ve seen for so well and so long?
Friday, August 21, 2009. Citi Field, New York, New York.
New York Mets – 4, Philadelphia – 2.
WP – Pelfrey (9-8), LP – Hamels (7-8).
H – Feliciano (21), Stokes (7). S – F. Rodriguez (27)
HR – Francouer (11).
It didn’t help that the Phillies left 11 on base and that both Utley and Howard struck out lunging at changeups out of the strike zone with tying runs on base in the 9th inning.
