Mets one-man juggernaut Daniel Murphy hit a home run for the fifth straight game Tuesday night, tying Carlos Beltran for the major-league record in the postseason. In addition to his exploits in Game 3 of the NLCS, Murphy came in having gone 10 for 28 with a 1.308 on-base plus slugging percentage. He's one reason the Mets are (almost) one more win from the World Series.
He's the man of the moment in Major League Baseball, so let's see what some of the players are saying about Murph on Twitter:
