Facing Mets closer Billy Wagner, shortstop Hanley Ramirez hit a game-winning two-run double over the outstretched hands of center fielder Carlos Beltran to seal the deal in the series opener at Shea Stadium.

Beltran's return spoiled By Anthony DiComo / MLB.com
What would have been a grand return from the DL for Carlos Beltran, who hit a three-run homer, instead turned into a tough loss. With the Mets up by one, closer Billy Wagner gave up a two-run double to Marlins shortstop Hanley Ramirez in the ninth inning to blow just his second save of the year.
