Citi Field, First game

Well, finally getting a chance to update. Going to the first game ever in Citi Field was quite an experience i must say. Obviously most people were more interested in the ballpark than the game, but that was expected i think. The place is beautiful, plain and simple. It really feels cozy without feeling cramped. One complaint that many people have made is that, the park does not really have a mets feel. There is defiantly not enough mets stuff around the park. Between the green seats and the Citi signs everywhere, it's hard to feel a Mets vibe. Anyway, check out these pictures of the park and the game. I sat in the second to last row in section 520. Thats the promenade level (upper deck).

Getting that first win under our belt was a great boost for team moral. The game felt scripted with Johan pitching beautifully regardless of the weather, Sean Green getting it done, giving some fans a reason to forget Heilman as soon as possible. JJ throwing some wicked pitches knocking hitters on their asses and finally K-rod getting it done in pure closer fashion. Obviously, the offense was sleeping the whole game, aside from Murph, the team fell asleep with their bats on their shoulders. Tonight hopefully we can see some high power offense to give Pelfrey some support. I really think jerry will have a hard time getting Sheffield into the lineup because i really think Church is going to break his ass this year to show everyone he's the man for the job. I wouldn't mind seeing Sheff get a pinch hit opportunity tonight, im curious to see if he means business or if he's just along for the ride.

Anyway, lets enjoy the game tonight and ill be sure to write up a post game report.

LETS GO METS!
