Brian Schneider's three-run home run in the second inning was the key blow in the Mets' 5-3 win over the Rays on Friday night. The Mets have 44 RBIs from catchers this season (Omir Santos, 21; recently- traded Ramon Castro, 13; Schneider, 10), the most of any National League team and second-most in the majors, behind the Royals (45).

And remarkably, on a team with David Wright and Carlos Beltran, the Mets have more RBIs this season from catchers than any other position! Next-most: 42 by center fielders, 42 by first basemen, 40 by third basemen.

It's A Real Hit

Via The Musings and Prophecies of Metstradamus  |  June 20, 2009
Brian Schneider hit a three run home run on Friday.Do I really have to say that?You would be right to expect that Schneider's robust home run production would drop significantly in 2009.

It's been a while since we treated Brian Schneider like an All-Star. But can you blame us?

Installed as the Mets catcher by default, Schneider immediately began doffing his helmet...

Can You Take Me High Enough?

You know how Frankie Rodriguez gets a save and then points skyward? I used to think he was giving thanks to the Heavens for instilling in him the talent and fortitude to close out baseball games for the New York Mets. I now realize he was just saying "hi" to the folks in Row 17 of Promenade. "Hi" back, Frankie. Thanks for the save. And thanks to a nice man...

Notes From the Road - Camden Yards

I woke up Thursday morning and logged on to Stubhub to check the going rate for Mets vs. Orioles tickets, just for fun. Twenty minutes later, I found myself scouring the internet to find the Inner Harbor’s best crab cakes, while waiting for my ticket to print.
