The Mets has fought back to even. It was 2-2 in the eighth inning, on a night when it felt like it might take an act of Congress for the Mets to get that second run, to get even with the Phillies, to grind another game closer to the Cubs.
Bryce Harper led off the eighth with a single off Daniel Zamora. Mickey Callaway came to get Zamora. The bullpen door opened. In jogged Jeurys Familia. And all across the precincts where people care about the Mets you could hear something that sounded like an ominous sigh. Loud and clear.
