The Wright to hype

It's difficult for a player to make his major league debut at the best of times, but when the debut is that of one of the franchise's brightest stars, he can probably be forgiven for being a little tense at the plate. Mets third baseman David Wright made his debut at Shea Stadium last night, going 0-for-4 at the plate in the Mets' 5-4 win over the Expos.

New York's win helped them to stay in the race for the NL East title - they're just three games behind the Phillies, who beat the Marlins 2-1, thanks to some heroics by Ricky Ledee.
