Phillies MLB.com writer: BUSTED!!!!!!
MLB.com: Phils don’t gain ground, lose to Braves Brett Myers allowed the Braves to get on the board early and the Phillies could not come back, losing to Atlanta, 10-4, at Citizens Bank Park on Wednesday night. The Mets defeated the Cubs, reducing the Phillies’ lead in the division to just a half-game.
MLB.com: Mets tied for NL Wild Card lead Forced into a battle of the bullpens with the Cubs on Wednesday, the Mets held their own until the 10th inning. But their ensuing 9-6 loss kept them 1 1/2 games back of the Phillies, who also lost, and knocked them into a tie with the Brewers atop the National League Wild Card standings. Now the Mets find themselves in a most precarious position.
PHI 89-70 [14-8 in SEPT]
NYM 87-71 [11-10 in SEPT] (1.5 GB)

1. McCoy Posted: September 25, 2008 at 03:14 AM (#2954305)Unfortunately this is what happens to the Mets now. They find exquisite, divine ways to lose.
I'm happy and yet, I feel this deep, sickening nausea.
Did you see the Wright AB with none out? It is one of the more horrific AB's any player has had this year.
I'll be there until they are eliminated but I haven't thought they'd make it since they went 4-6 against the Nationals and Braves before the Cubs series. They needed to do better than that and didn't.
It's been a roller coaster season that would exhaust the patience of any fan.
I guess it says something about the 2008 Mets.
Tonight.
9/21, 4-3 lead after 7, Mets lose 7-6 against the Braves.
9/14, 4-2 lead after 8, Mets lose 7-4 against the Braves.
9/13, 2-0 lead after 8, Mets lose 3-2 against the Braves.
8/30, Mets lose a game against the Marlins in which they had a 3-0 lead as Heilman walks 4 in the ninth.
8/26, Mets lose a game against the Phillies in which they held a 7-run lead.
The whole season season has been like that.
