    The Phillies and Mets are short on time in the NL wild-card chase -- and their fans are surely short on patience, too.

    A night after Philadelphia's bullpen walked home the winning run in the ninth inning, it was New York's glove work that looked unfit for October.

    Drew Smyly pitched seven solid innings, and the Phillies pounded down on Marcus Stroman and the Mets' porous defense to beat New York 5-0 Saturday and end a three-game skid.
