Big reason like it seems Mets have been doing since who knows when is coming up with clutch hits. Take Brewer series, Mets 9-25 RISP while Brewers went 4-25.
Phillies have too inconsistent of late with RISP in close games. Very little PATIENCE at the plate especially Turner. Can't expect Wheeler, Nola and Sanchez to give up only 1/2 runs. Along with cold bats Phils needed the time off (Harper, JTR, and Bohm) nursing bothersome injuries. Will see tomorrow if the bats come alive.
