Hey Mets fans! We're here as the Mets try and sweep their three-game series with the Reds. One of the biggest factors in the game will be to see what Oliver Perez appears on the mound. In his last exhibition start last weekend he was atrocious and did not even last an inning before getting pulled. He complained about the cold weather and wind, so be glad the conditions are much better in Cinci today. A couple lineup changes and then we'll get underway. Castro will catch instead of Schneider and Cora will man second base in place of Castillo. Bronson Arroyo on the mound for the Reds.
Back after first pitch!
