Detail Left Out
Telling part of this summary of last night's Mets addition to the record books (10 hits in one inning, first time in its career) is that an important part of the inning is left out -- at least one or two key non-plays that could have got the Braves out of the inning. This happens too much in news accounts. Luckily, Perez got out of the next inning, and the Braves actually didn't score any more runs. 8-4 in the fourth really is not a gimmee with this team.
