Nice of Milledge to let Beltran's RBI hit drop in by positioning himself in CitiField

Benjamin Grimm Sep 10 2008 05:32 PM

I had my heart in my throat as Tatis jumped for that drive by Milledge.

TransMonk Sep 10 2008 05:33 PM

I like 2 out rallies. Even if they only score one run. Tatis says, "If your going to play a shitty outfield, at least make the play, Milledge."

duan Sep 10 2008 05:33 PM

Mike Pelfrey's got a little more driveable last two games.

TransMonk Sep 10 2008 05:34 PM

Fucking Dukes.

bmfc1 Sep 10 2008 05:42 PM

When the Mets "style" after a homerun, it's a big story but I guess other teams feel like they can do it. To me, it looked like Dukes blew kisses toward the Mets dugout and was smiling and yukking it up for several minutes in the dugout.

SteveJRogers Sep 10 2008 05:52 PM

I'm digging those Independence Day Weekend Caps with the pinstripes. Great touch.

Farmer Ted Sep 10 2008 05:53 PM

Something doesn't look right with those Mets caps. Dark Blue or is my TV totally messed up?

Those are the Independence Day Weekend caps that MLB used during, well, Independence Day Weekend this year, the Mets were in Philly. Dark blue cap, the logo has the flag inlaid on it with a very dominating (on video) white border.

SteveJRogers Sep 10 2008 06:05 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Sep 10 2008 06:08 PM

They are called "Stars and Stripes On-Field Cap" Tomorrow is the anniversary of 9/11, and representatives of the NYPD and NYFD pulled the countdown number from 12 to 11 before the game.

Farmer Ted Sep 10 2008 06:08 PM

Being used today for 9/11 remembrance purposes I suppose. Good use for them. I liked the NYPD hats.

TransMonk Sep 10 2008 06:12 PM

One out rallies are nice, too.

Frayed Knot Sep 10 2008 06:13 PM

Tough to overstate how much Tatis bailed the team out this summer.

metirish Sep 10 2008 06:15 PM

"Everybody Dance Now"

TheOldMole Sep 10 2008 06:16 PM

Hard not to like how this is going.

Frayed Knot Sep 10 2008 06:16 PM

Got away with this time but that was another bad send IMO. Yeah you're winning and can afford to be more agressive but LFer had the ball before Tatis had even reached 3rd

bmfc1 Sep 10 2008 06:24 PM

That was for what I mentioned earlier. Ray Knight is doing color for MASN and said "that's the way the game is played" and Dukes "doesn't understand what it takes to be a major league player."

metirish Sep 10 2008 06:39 PM

Dukes is a low class prick , the pitch "inside" wasn't even that close.

Rockin' Doc Sep 10 2008 07:11 PM

Time to get the offense cranked up again. I like seeing the Mets with a (bigger) cushion going in to the late innings.

Elster88 Sep 10 2008 07:14 PM

Ugh. Getting flashbacks.

KC Sep 10 2008 07:25 PM

How 'bout that Heilman?

TransMonk Sep 10 2008 07:28 PM

F'n shocker. I really root for the guy every time he goes out there. But he has been burned SO many times. Ugh.

metirish Sep 10 2008 07:31 PM

KC wrote: How 'bout that Heilman? You just can't be walking that first guy, jeez.

bmfc1 Sep 10 2008 07:31 PM

The only times Jerry can use Heilman from now on are: 10-1, either way, 9th inning; and the day after they clinch. Other than that, he can watch the game like the rest of us.

Fman99 Sep 10 2008 07:46 PM

In Joe We Trust.

TransMonk Sep 10 2008 07:48 PM

David's D looks pretty good as well. Get a hit, buddy!

metirish Sep 10 2008 07:49 PM

Two nice plays by Daybidrye , the one to end the inning was great. comebacker hits of Joe's glove and Wright charges and makes the bare handed pick and throw to first.

TransMonk Sep 10 2008 07:50 PM

Rally! What is Milledge doing?

metsguyinmichigan Sep 10 2008 07:51 PM

Just getting here. Freaking Heilman. But I know we can win this, especially already knowing that the Phils have lost.

Rockin' Doc Sep 10 2008 07:52 PM

Men at the corners for the red hot Delgado. Right man for the situation.

KC Sep 10 2008 07:53 PM

Lastings really has no business being a centerfielder.

metirish Sep 10 2008 07:55 PM

At what point is it the coaches fault for Lastings playing so deep?

Rockin' Doc Sep 10 2008 07:56 PM

Bases jammed for Schneider. Time for the Schneid to break this game open.

KC Sep 10 2008 07:57 PM

I know, but I don't mean just his positioning.

metsguyinmichigan Sep 10 2008 07:57 PM

Delgado magic!!!! A couple more runs here would be sweet!!!!

Rockin' Doc Sep 10 2008 07:58 PM

Wild pitch gives the Mets a gift insurance run.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Sep 10 2008 07:59 PM

Busted open by the Schneid. Eventually these last place teams reveal themselves.

Rockin' Doc Sep 10 2008 07:59 PM

Schneider singles to drive in two more. This game is fun again.

Elster88 Sep 10 2008 08:11 PM

Unbelievable.

metirish Sep 10 2008 08:11 PM

If I hadn't seen this before I might not believe it.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Sep 10 2008 08:11 PM

Whoops. Joke's on Stokes. Christian Guzman has 3 HRs in this series.

TransMonk Sep 10 2008 08:15 PM

11 should be enough, but more insurance runs sure would be nice with the top of the order up.

bmfc1 Sep 10 2008 08:16 PM

September games against the Nationals are as tough as playing the Phillies. Next week's 4 games are scary.

Rockin' Doc Sep 10 2008 08:19 PM

In my anguish and frustration I originally posted this in the wrong thread. Guzman can cut out his Delgado impression any time. This team is causing me to lose what little sdense I still have left. Top of the order needs to help bail out the pen here and give them a safer lead.

Wright must still have Edgy on his mind. Big Home Rn.

TransMonk Sep 10 2008 08:23 PM

Thank you, David.

Wright says, "I'm the MVP around here!!!!"

Frayed Knot Sep 10 2008 08:24 PM

Wright telling those complain' bout no clutch hittin' fans to shove it up their pooper.

Fman99 Sep 10 2008 08:24 PM

KABOOM

Elster88 Sep 10 2008 08:25 PM

Yeah those fans are idiots aren't they? Seriously how stupid can some human beings be? SC = zero

metsguyinmichigan Sep 10 2008 08:28 PM

No homers from Delgado tonight? Slacker!

Fman99 Sep 10 2008 08:32 PM

Wow. Nice dive by Our-Anus and dig by Delgado. Ol' MVP-boy has been solid with the leather as well as the lumber.

Dukes gesturing to the fans as he is booed of the field , get used to it punk.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Sep 10 2008 08:36 PM

I'm back, Biotches.

Benjamin Grimm Sep 10 2008 08:45 PM

No homers from Delgado today??? Cut him!

Valadius Sep 10 2008 09:16 PM

In Mets record book news, Jose Reyes is your new career steals leader.

Gwreck Sep 10 2008 10:04 PM

Reyes gave a nice cap tip to the fans when the announcement was made on the scoreboard. Ugly, ugly win. The Stars and Stripes cap is stupid and should be banned even faster than the black hats.

AG/DC Sep 11 2008 05:53 AM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Sep 11 2008 07:51 AM

'Greed. The New York agency caps are so not stupid (even if the flaming FDNY caps are goofy loud) and I hate to think they're done wearing those.

soupcan Sep 11 2008 07:35 AM

I took my son last night. We had a good time because ultimately the damn thing ended the right way. There was a guy sitting in the seat in front of us who looked really familiar. We were high fiving after big hits and generally being 'fan-friendly' toward each other but even though I thought he looked familiar I couldn't place him. Then somebody asked him something and gave him a ball to sign. The guy signed it and that was that. After the game ended we got up to leave and a few more people recognized him and asked him for autographs. Apparently he was - or everybody thought he was - Roger Federer. I'm not so sure. The guy definitely resmbled Federer but I think he was just getting a kick out of people thinking he was and decided to pretend he was and sign. Did they show him or mention that Federer was there last night on TV?

I watched the whole game and SNY didn't show that guy.

metirish wrote: I watched the whole game and SNY didn't show that guy. Was that so hard? Thank you Mr. irish. Now I don't feel bad about telling my son not to ask the guy for an autograph. I figured if it really was him: 1 - They'd have at least showed/mentioned that he was there, if not actually had him throw out the first pitch or something. 2 - He would've had better seats.

Gwreck Sep 11 2008 03:29 PM

SteveJRogers Sep 11 2008 05:52 PM

="AG/DC"]'Greed. Which explains why the Mets were decked in the Stars & Stripes caps. New Era and MLB puts these shiny new products out, and considering the Met organization is a slave to such edicts from MLB, they'll wear what MLB and New Era wants the consumer to buy. Consumers are not rushing out to buy the Agency caps, I mean I'm sure you could find some, but they are hard to find, and more importantly, not made by New Era or licensed by MLB. I do like them though, to each their own.

KC Sep 11 2008 06:13 PM

SJR: considering the Met organization is a slave to such edicts from MLB, they'll wear what MLB and New Era wants the consumer to buy <<< It's not metscentric, all teams are wearing them today and the teams that don't play today wore them yesterday.

But the VIPS are usually right on the field or behind the plate. My seats are like 7-8 rows from the field. ="KC"]It's not metscentric, all teams are wearing them today and the teams that don't play today wore them yesterday. Doh! For the life of me I could not figure out why the Mets were wearing them on the 10th and not the 11th.

cooby Sep 11 2008 07:05 PM

Ask your self this: Is this game on FOX? No? So they are probably showing the action on the field and not possible celebrities in the stands. PS Who is Roger Federer anyway? James Bond?

He's Swiss. We were in Geneva last summer when he won Wimbleldon. Let's just say that people in Switzerlalnd were VERY excited about that.
