Mets 5, Dodgers 2

Too many men left on base. Too many wasted chances. Dodgers stranded a dozen, six of them in scoring position, and went 1 for 8 with RISP. The one hit they did get with a RISP didn’t even score the run. And Oliver Perez shuts them out for seven innings. Dodgers fall to 66-62. Pods won, so the boys fall to 3 1/2 back in the wild card. Looks like the Snakes are going to lose, which would put the Dodgers still 5 1/2 back in the division. Stults goes tomorrow.
