"Javier Vazquez certainly can handle pitching in New York, just not for the home team.

The two-time Yankee flop stuck it to the Mets last night, making it two superb performances for Vazquez at Citi Field in less than a month.

The combo of Vazquez and a brutal seventh inning for Mike Pelfrey spelled the end of a Mets' winning streak that had reached four games. The Marlins sent 10 batters to the plate in the seventh, scored five runs and sent the Mets to a 6-0 loss.

Vazquez (8-11) lowered his ERA to 0.64 in two starts at Citi Field this season. The veteran righty allowed only three hits -- all of them singles -- over seven shutout innings last night."
