It’s one of those baseball axioms that sounds as if Yogi or Casey was the first to put it in words: “A home run can kill a rally.”
As oxymoronic as it sounds, it does makes sense. And when Jeff Francouer offered his variation on that theme Tuesday night — “You know, a home run can be a rally killer” — it made perfect sense. But these are the 2009 Mets; no need to worry.

The ailing Mets can barely wait to reinsert a no-longer-ailing Gary Sheffield into the lineup.
Manager Jerry Manuel had been hopeful that Sheffield, who has been out of the lineup since leaving Friday’s game with right hamstring cramps, could be back in the Mets’ starting lineup as early as Tuesday, against the Nationals. But after Monday’s game, Manuel indicated that the Mets will likely have to wait some more.

In the midst of a season-high five-game losing streak and a struggling offense, manager Jerry Manuel said adamantly Tuesday he expected to sit David Wright, and possibly Gary Sheffield. Sheffield is out of Wednesday’s lineup, but Wright — who has only sat one game this season — is in.
Initially, Wright, Sheffield and the rest of the Mets would have gotten Thursday off. But with a makeup game against Pittsburgh stemming from a rainout on June 3, that off-day has been lost. Manuel said he knew while looking through the schedule and probable pitchers that he didn’t want to sit Wright or Sheffield against a left-handed pitcher. Pirates left-hander Paul Maholm is scheduled to make the start Thursday, and with the game being played at 12:35 p.m. ET after a plane ride from Milwaukee, Manuel said he thought Wednesday was good of a day as any to sit his third baseman.
