New York's bullpen cost Tom Glavine his 300th win.
After Mets relievers wasted a one-run lead in the eighth, Geoff Jenkins hit a two-run homer off Aaron Sele in the 13th inning to give the Brewers a 4-2 victory over the Mets on Tuesday night.
Glavine had allowed only two hits when Mets manager Willie Randolph took him out in the seventh inning with a runner on first and New York leading 2-1 with no outs. Right-hander Aaron Heilman relieved Glavine, who fidgeted and stared nervously from the Mets' bench as he accepted congratulations from his teammates.
It turned out that Glavine had a reason to be nervous, as the Mets' usually reliable bullpen couldn't nail down the victory. His next shot will come against the Cubs at Wrigley Field on Sunday.
