Mike MooreHOST
Meanwhile, back in New York, it seemed like the whole city was watching the game, although no one rooting for the Mets could have been very encouraged after the Astros exploded for three runs in the bottom of the first.
Mike MooreHOST
Once again, the Mets were having trouble scoring runs, and this time Bob Knepper was the reason why.

By the time the ninth inning rolled around, there was little reason to believe that the Mets would solve the mystery of Knepper.
