Game Preview: Mets at Braves [Game 89] July 17, 2009

braves logoNew York Mets (42-46 Road: 17-26)  at Atlanta Braves (44-45 Home: 22-21) 7:35 pm

Mike Pelfrey (7-4 4.47) vs. Jair Jurrjens (7-7 2.91)

TV: WPIX RadioWFAN

What to watch: Pelfrey’s last start against the Reds was very good going 7 innings and giving up 3 runs. But he’s been up and down going 2-2 in his last four starts. Jurrjens is a tough luck 2-2 in his last four starts as well. But he only gave up 9 runs over 27 innings in those games. The Braves will retire Greg Maddux‘ number 31 prior to the game. At least the Braves show some respect to their great former players. I hope the Mets front office is watching the ceremony. They could learn something about how to run a top-flight franchise.
