METS WIN OPENER! Johan Ace in His Mets Debut!

ME: today was a real letdown. had a ton of work to do at work; making resumes for impatient clients, wanting to send a resume out to get a new job. then, my dad was completely weird on the phone with me and made me feel like shite, basically. didn't know how to respond and it brought me down. over the years, our relationship has grown strained, at best. he refuses to let me visit him. i could just go and should. i keep thinking about it. want to then half of me thinks i shouldn't even make the effort. so many issues. went home, got productive and took care of things that needed tending to. managed to watch baseball.

METS: today the Mets opened their season in Florida. Johan took the mound and dominated, allowing two runs on three hits (gave up a two-run homer to Jorge Cantu, of all people). but striking out eight in seven innings! he went 0-3 in his first game where he had to hit...no surprise there. but what if, he really learned how to hit and became a good hitter. Perez is a decent hitter. Gooden was awesome. Mets beat the Marlins in the Marlins opener, 7-2. Jose went 2-4 with a run and RBI. Castillo was 1-3 with two walks and run scored. Wright? 2-3 with 3 RBI, including a hard hit double, which knocked in runs. Pagan, in for Alou, went 1-3 with a run and RBI. Church went 1-4 also with run and RBI. it was a terrific offensive game for the Mets; hitting everything Hendrickson offered. Hendrickson went on to pitch five innings and gave up six runs on seven hits. great way to start the season!!!
