The game was over. The Mets had just completed a dramatic comeback to defeat the San Diego Padres 9-8 at Citi Field. While the players celebrated on the field, home plate umpire Marty Foster limped awkwardly back to the clubhouse to get treatment. Injured Mets first baseman Ike Davis, watching Foster from the dugout, turned to SNY's Kevin Burkhardt and quietly said, "I know what that feels like." Foster was the latest casualty of Mets third baseman David Wright's inability to control his body on the baseball field. After the game, fighting back tears, Wright finally opened up about the situation.
