The Mets went down I-95 this weekend to see if they could whoop the Phillies, but ended up getting a whooping of their own. After a 9-1 win Friday, the Mets fell apart, on the losing end of a 10-0 shutout on Saturday and the Phillies tagging Johan Santana for 10 runs over 3.2 innings in a 11-5 loss, the worst ever in his career.
I decided to go with boxing here for obvious reasons of the simple one-sided affair from the Phillies. And since it is Philadelphia, and there’s boxing involved, I had to give a homage to Rocky in that golden robe.
