It's really not close. He single-handedly cost the Phils Game 4 and 6 even with everything else that happened, if he got 1 more out in those games Phils win 4-2 instead of losing series 4-2.

Agreed.

Additionally, I consider World Series losing walk-off homers as carrying monstrous weight in this comparison.

BTW, expect the people who don't understand the word generation to drop in with their, "ZOMG HE IS OLDZ AND NOT IN THIS GENERATION" comments any time now.

Roger Clemens "strains" a hammy when he's got nothing in an elimination game. No one could have predicted this...

Saddest thing about this? This was the high point of the season for the Mets.

hey benitez's clutchness is underated
why just look at game 2 of the 2000 nlds where the mets took a
4-1 lead into the 9th and benitez was able to earn the win and get the mets back into the series

GIANTS 9TH: Bonds doubled; BENITEZ REPLACED LEITER (PITCHING);
Kent singled [Bonds stayed at second]; Burks flied to right;
SNOW BATTED FOR MARTINEZ; Snow homered [Bonds scored, Kent
scored]; Aurilia grounded out (shortstop to first); Estalella
popped to shortstop; 3 R, 3 H, 0 E, 0 LOB. Mets 4, Giants 4.




New York Mets IP H R ER BB SO HR
Leiter 8 5 2 2 3 6 0
Benitez W(1-0) 1 3 2 2 0 0 1
Franco SV(1) 1 0 0 0 0 1 0
Totals 10 8 4 4 3 7 1



Gotta Love Win Loss record as a stat.
