Two balks...in one inning?

As soon as Armando Benitez entered the game, I started booing strongly. But then it dawned on me that maybe I should cheer...Benitez was probably the Mets' best chance to come back. And come back they did. Reyes terrorized Benitez into two balks. Delgado took advantage of the fact that Benitez was rattled, and he jacked one over the right-field fence. One of the most exciting Mets games that I have been to in a long while.

Other comments:

-Tim Lincecum is the real deal. He was throwing in the high 90s effortlessly for 7 innings. And, oh yeah, he's got a dominant curveball too.

-The booing of Bonds was incredible. Just entering the on-deck circle, it was non-stop. And then when he was on base, nothing but chants directed at him. That's gotta grate on a man.
