Phils spoil final Shea opener
Phillies 5, Mets 2

In the last Opening Day at Shea Stadium, the Mets held a late two-run lead, but the relief corps allowed three runs in the seventh, and the hosts could not rally. Carlos Delgado belted his first homer of '08, but also committed a costly error.

Held in check by Mets starter Oliver Perez for 5 2/3 innings, the Phils broke through with three runs in the seventh, highlighted by Jayson Werth's tiebreaking RBI single, and notched their first win in eight tries on Opening Day at Shea Stadium.
