Glavine and Nady Too Much for Pirates May 5 New York Times (registration required): "Xavier Nady's three-run homer off Salomón Torres turned a tense game into a blowout, and the Mets defeated the lowly Pirates, 6-0, at Shea Stadium to complete a two-game sweep." A Good Tom To Be A Met May 5 New York Post (registration required): "Last night at Shea, Glavine tossed seven more scoreless innings in a 6-0 shutout over the Pirates. He only allowed three hits and a walk, and struck out 10." Nady Remains The Mets' X-Factor May 5 New York Post (registration required): "Last night, Xavier Nady returned to the lineup and tied a career-high with four RBIs in the Mets' 6-0 victory over Pittsburgh." Wright's average up after chat with Down May 5 Newark Star-Ledger (registration required): "David Wright snapped out of a 1-for-19 funk with a vengeance last night in the 6-0 victory over Pittsburgh, going 4-for-5 with an RBI, a double and a run scored." Setup man with stuff of closer May 5 Newsday: "Off the mound and out of uniform, Duaner Sanchez replaces his signature goggles with rimless glasses, just as Superman trades the cape for a jacket and tie when he's done fighting for Truth, Justice and the American Way." Mileage from Endy May 5 Newsday: "Judging from the energy he showed in getting four hits Wednesday night and the jump he always shows in the outfield, it is easy to say that Endy Chavez has a lot in his tank. It would be accurate, too, in more ways than one." Braves in brand new world May 5 New York Daily News columnist Filip Bondy: "Meanwhile, the Mets have to play out a few more games, 134 of them, and rid themselves of the Braves, who are now seven games out in third place."
