 (Editor's Note) Mets Today's Joe Janish, a frequent contributor to Gotham Baseball and "Live From Mickey Mantle's", had an excellent piece on his blog today, and I'ke like to share it with you. - MH
During the ninth inning of last night’s game against the Phillies, Carlos Beltran made a throw to third base in attempt to nail Eric Bruntlett going from first to third on a single by Pedro Feliz. The ball got away from third baseman David Wright, allowing Bruntlett to score and Feliz to take second base.

 On July 10th at Yankees fans and baseball enthusiasts will have the rare
opportunity to see Don Larsen’s perfect game, to be shown for the first
time in New York City since the game was played. ReelSportsFan.com, in conjunction with Rare Sportsfilms Inc., is proud
to host a special screening at The B.B. King Blues Club, showing the only known copy of Game 5 of the
1956 World Series. Prior to the viewing of the game there will be an
appearance and discussion with Baseball Hall of Fame Broadcaster Bob
Wolff who called the play-by-play on radio for Larsen’s perfect game
nearly 52 years ago. Mark Healey of Gotham Baseball Magazine will serve as the Master Of Ceremonies for the event.

 The New York Mets are trying to reach the postseason. Based on their
record, ability to add payroll and the added pressure to fill their new
ballpark next year, one would figure that the next few weeks will be
busy for the team's front office. However, according to several baseball sources, the Mets will not be
making any major deals. That news may put a damper on what is usually
a frenetic time for readers of this space, but it's reality, I'm told.

 (Editor's Note) - I appear as a contributor in "Playing For Peanuts"
and consider John Fitzgerald a good friend. However, I am in complete
agreement with his decision to pull the series from SNY, and have the same
questions for SNY as he does. There is no doubt in my mind that the subject
matter (Wally Backman) is the sole reason for the mysterious and
illogical decision not to cooperate with Fitzgerald.) and he will be appearing at Mickey Mantle's with me on Friday's (June 27) "LIVE FROM MICKEY MANTLE'S"

 A year or so ago, I implored many of my colleagues in the print and
digital media to spend some time in the classroom, as I did as a
adjunct Professor Of Journalism at Five Towns College in 2006-07. At the time I explained that in addition to “giving back” to a
generation that was going to be severely challenged in this topsy-turvy
world of new media, that it would make us all better journalists. Teaching younger versions of ourselves to become ethical reporters
might instill a greater responsibility to have the highest sort of
integrity, etc.
Then “J-Rod” comes along.

 Sixxteen years ago, Bob Klapisch penned a book called "The Worst Team Money Can Buy: The Collapse of the New York Mets". Ironically, that title still fits the flippant fumblers in Flushing. Back then, the team was chided for finishing in fifth, despite the
dubious distinction of the highest payroll in baseball ($45M, at the
time an exorbitant amount). The team was littered with overpaid,
underperforming has-beens in the twilight of their careers (sound
familiar?). For example, they had a quiet and moody, media-evading,

 Regardless of who got Willie Randolph fired – and really, had Willie
found a way to reach his bumbling club after the All-Star break last
season, he'd still have a job – the focus should now shift as to how
the Mets can reach their desired destination this year: the World
Series.
