Why is that unexpected?
I'm not familiar with SQL syntax, but some brief searching shows that at least sometimes, '\' can escape a '"' character as it can in many other languages (although I also see that sometimes it cannot escape the quote...so maybe this is one of those times, please correct me if that's the case).
So, if I'm reading that right, you're using a single string containing a literal " character, a comma, and a space. Then you're opening the next string. It looks like maybe you wanted to use '\', '' or "\\", "" or something like that instead of "\", "" in your code.
