Papelbon's Whiny Reaction: Video Snapshot

For those that watched the game on SNY or NESN, you'll recall that the cameras caught Papelbon's reaction to the great play David Wright and Luis Castillo pulled off to get the out at second in the bottom of the 9th.

This is classic, especially as it wasn't even that close of a play:

Omir Santos Takes Papelbon Deep--Mets Win!

Mets win 3-2 with JJ Putz on the hill to close it out and some great defense.

What a phenomenal win.

If the Mets can sweep the series tomorrow, they return to Shea with a ton of momentum to face the Nationals and Marlins.

Papelbon is still crying in the dugout.
