Wright hits! Mets score!
This looks like the Mets had planned it. Jose Reyes walked to lead off the sixth, goes to second on Luis Castillo's sacrifice bunt and David Wright--having looked awful in two previous at-bats, both swinging strikeouts--drilled a line drive over leftfielder Alfonso Soriano's head for a double. Mets are up 1-0. Wright tied Ed Kranepool for first on the Mets all-time list for doubles, with 225.
And Jeff Francouer ended an 0-for-24 slide by punching a single to right, sending home Wright home and it's 2-0.
