This is the second consecutive awful start for Pedro Martinez. He gave up six runs before being chased from the game after 5.2 innings. He gave up six hits and five walks in that span to allow the Yankees to put the game completely out of reach.
Sidney Ponson was on cruise control against the Mets offense. Apparently, the Mets didn’t keep anything for the second game of the double header after scoring 15 runs in the first game.
It was an ugly game but not completely unexpected. Most double headers are split anyway.

My only accessibility to the Mets is sitting in the stands (often the upper tank) and watching on TV like most fans.
