The Florida Marlins defeated the Mets 5-4 in extra innings as Robert Andino hit a walk-off home run to win the game.

The game was over when: The Mets quit hitting. The bullpen held the Marlins scoreless for over six innings and still couldn't take the lead, even though New York had several chances to do so. Andino's moon shot off of Matt Wise was just the final nail in the coffin of tonight's contest.

The Good: The bullpen was awesome. Sosa, Schoeneweis, Smith and Heilman held the Marlins scoreless from the fourth inning into the tenth. Even Wise struck out his first two batters before giving up the homer to Andino.

The Bad: Situational hitting, anyone? The Mets left 12 men on base on Tuesday night and had plenty of chances to score at least one run, especially in the top of the ninth. The bullpen came through and the bats gave zero support.

The Ugly: Pedro Martinez left in the bottom of the fourth after hearing what is being reported as a “pop” in his left hamstring. While this shouldn't surprise anybody, it's still not good at all. Everything is speculation at this point at Martinez will have an MRI on Wednesday. Still, you have to fear for the worst at this point and believe that we may not see Pedro on the hill until possibly June.

Overall: Martinez didn't have good stuff before getting hurt this evening, giving up four runs in 3.1 innings. Still, you don't want to see the “number two man” of the rotation go down in his first start. As I said, though, this loss can be blamed on the lack of offensive production. Fans had worries about the bullpen coming into 2008 and rightfully so. Thus far, the Pen has been great. Wise may have given up the game winning shot in the tenth but the truth is the game never should have gotten that far to begin with. Hopefully the better team can take this series.
