Pirates rout bumbling Mets, 13-1
Xavier Nady led the Bucs by going 3-for-3 with three RBIs and two runs scored.
The Mets bumbled through a sloppy performance Wednesday, and the Pirates seemed to make them pay for every mistake. Pittsburgh scored nine unearned runs in a 13-1 victory that had New York closer Billy Wagner questioning his team’s effort afterward.
“There was no get-up-and-go,” Wagner said. “That can’t happen.”
Pirates right fielder Xavier Nady, traded by the Mets for Perez and Roberto Hernandez in 2006, went 3-for-3 with three RBIs and two runs scored.
