 NEW YORK (AP) - Willie Randolph swears there was no special message in the New York Mets' three-game sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals. After all, in this runaway season, the Mets have swept eight other series.
"It doesn't mean anything," the manager said. "We don't focus on any particular team."
But this particular Cardinals team has won 205 games the last two years and captured its division in five of the last six. So in the matchup of first-place teams, it was time for a statement, and the Mets made one.
