They sing that song, all day long, Duda, Duda ...
The surname of a second Mets player can be found in Stephen Foster's lyrics: Jason Bay. Someone bet on him. But you can't write about betting and baseball in the same blog post.
Neither Bay nor Lucas Duda hit a home run today, or even a bases-clearing triple.
The Metropolitans, in fact, tamely submitted to the offerings of Justin Verlander and two relievers, scoring only two harmless runs on ten harmless hits, none of which came with two out and the bases loaded.
Andy Dirks homered -- his third circuit blast in the Tigers' last three games -- for their fifth and last run.
With the Indians idle, the Tigers now have a half-game lead in the AL Central race, with the world champion Government Issue Insects -- the G.I. Ants -- in town for a three-game weekend series.
