METS 5, ANGELS 4: Manuel's win extra special

 
New manager gets first victory as Easley goes deep in 10th > Manuel suggested that he would tinker with the lineup more than his predecessor and he did just that before last night's game when he switched Carlos Delgado to DH and moved Marlon Anderson over to first base. Carlos Beltran drilled two homers from the DH spot on Monday and Delgado, a career .265 hitter in that role, came through Wednesday with a solo homer in the fourth. (link)
