The Mets need to wake up and do the little things the right way or they'll be done in 4 games. Two outs and Timo Perez trots the bases? People standing at home plate before the ump makes a call? You can't give a veteran team like the Yankees any room to beat you. My opinion? The Mets played like they had the bloody game won already.

And the Yanks were ripe for the taking as well. Even with Perez idling 'tween 1st and 2nd, did you see the throw that it took to nail him? Simply World Series caliber baseball, ala Derek Jeter, and that has been the difference so far.

Joe Torre is a charmed manager, and Bobby V is snake-bit. The Mets need another miracle.
