Mets Came Up Short Against The O's: 3/8/07
Quote:
A two-run home run by Ben Johnson in the eighth inning was the final piece of offense by the Mets. It left them one run short. The Orioles had scored five times in the second inning against Orlando Hernandez and led throughout.
El Duque had made his first start of the spring, pitching two weeks after receiving a diagnosis of arthritis in the neck and getting an injection of cortisone. He had retired the side in order in the first inning.
He took a ground ball off the inside of his left foot in the second inning. One run scored on that play, four successive hits followed, one a three-run home run by catcher Adam Donachie.
