After Fred Lewis dropped Angel Pagan's two-out "double" to left Castillo hit his first homer since last May giving New York a 2-1 lead.
I have said it time and time again but Fred Lewis is the worst outfielder I have ever seen at the Major League level.
The Giants like his speed but just getting to balls isn't enough if you can't make the play on them once you get there.
Randy Winn's double in the 8th tied the game at 2 but David Murphy's single to right scored Jeff Francouer who slid in ahead of Nate Schierholtz's throw to give the Mets the win.
The old saying in baseball is that momentum only means as much as the next day's starting pitcher.
Well, the Giants have the best staff in the league - whether it's the starters or the bullpen so for them the positive energy is all fueled by the bats and the big hits are just too few and too far in between.
Joe Martinez, whose from New Jersey gets the start against former Giant Livan Hernandez in the finale Monday night and the boys of the bay really need to earn a split against a Mets squad decimated by injury.
David Wright is going on the 15-day DL. He sustained a concussion but seems to have escaped any serious harm.
