The hits just keep coming and so do the victories. David Wright and Jose Valentin powered the Mets to the fourth consecutive win and their eleventh win in the past twelve games. With last night's victory, the Mets find their season record at 82 - 49, best in major league baseball. We toast this victory with a beer from the Olde Heurich Brewing Company in our nation's capital. The Mets soundly whipped Josh Fogg's butt last night, so it seems appropriate that we raise a glass of Foggy Bottom Lager in praise the Mets.

An excerpt from the the Foggy Bottom brewerie website: "Upon the elder Heurich's death in 1945, his son succeeded him as president. Christian Heurich, Jr., operated the brewery until industry consolidation and competition led him to cease brewing operations in January 1956. In 1961-62, the buildings were razed to make way for the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and for the approaches to the Theodore Roosevelt Bridge to Virginia. Heurich, Jr., and his two sisters donated a portion of the brewery land to the Kennedy Center in memory of their parents, and established the Christian Heurich Family as one of the Founders of the national cultural center." It's amazing the things I learn when compiling these polls. Now, would ya'll please vote?

A grand slam plus an extra RBI doesn't earn suds from you guys? Whatever.
