Schneider placed on the 15 DL.....bank problem

batmagadanleadoff Apr 17 2009 05:04 PM

Fuck Willie Randolph.

Farmer Ted Apr 17 2009 05:11 PM

Brewers = Bud Selig. I hat the Brewers.

Experiencing my annual warm and fuzzy that the black uni tops are back. Won't care that much by next month, always returns me to '99 and '00 when I see them for the first time every year.

metirish Apr 17 2009 05:28 PM

The stupid inaugural patch is such an eye sore...

Farmer Ted Apr 17 2009 05:54 PM

Offense, check. Livan, check. Steady as she goes with a 3-0 lead. YOU CAN DO IT!

bmfc1 Apr 17 2009 06:05 PM

Schneider to the DL... welcome Omir Santos (#9).

Can we please not play the 'let's score multiples in the 1st inning but never again' game tonight?

themetfairy Apr 17 2009 06:39 PM

I generally like the black unis. But the pizza patch looks especially bad against the black background.

themetfairy Apr 17 2009 06:50 PM

Fuck! Milwaukee takes the lead on a homer off of Livan.

I felt the same thing. My son and I were both on our feet, high-fiving.

Kong76 Apr 17 2009 07:48 PM

What they didn't say was that Sheff told the team he's buying everyone an expensive watch when he hits it. Interesting teammate reaction, most of it seemed really quite genuine.

Fman99 Apr 17 2009 08:06 PM

Holy wasted opportunities. Can someone please get a hit with runners on base?

Fman99 Apr 17 2009 08:09 PM

Well then.

Kong76 Apr 17 2009 08:11 PM

Leaving the bases loaded three times in a game to end an inning is hard to do.

metirish Apr 17 2009 08:12 PM

A disgraceful display of hitting with RISP by the Mets.

Kong76 Apr 17 2009 08:16 PM

Little early in the year for disgrace for my taste.

Kong76 Apr 17 2009 08:22 PM

This Delgado guy is locked and loaded!

Fman99 Apr 17 2009 08:22 PM

Nice leadoff gapper by Delgado. Three chances to plate him. Let's Go Mets!

at least the Pods came back from being down 7-1 to be the Phils (in Philly), now I feel a little better about our opening-the-new-home series loss.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Apr 17 2009 08:25 PM

This has have been Beltran;s worst night of the year. Here comes Omir Santos into the books.

Fman99 Apr 17 2009 08:26 PM

Bleh. K and an intentional BB. Now it's up to some guy. Go Omir!

TheOldMole Apr 17 2009 08:26 PM

Who is Omir Santos?

Fman99 Apr 17 2009 08:28 PM

Wow. Omir moved em up and it's on Luis. Two down...

Shame on the fans in attendance for giving that shithead Sheffield a curtain call. Sickening.

MFS62 Apr 17 2009 08:52 PM

Waitaminit! The game isn't over. Its 10:48 Eastern time, and Yahoo is still showing it a 4-4 game in the seventh inning. I was at work, and it was like being in a time warp. I got into my car in time to hear Sheffield's homer. Thank you Luis. Later

G-Fafif Apr 17 2009 10:09 PM

On SportsNite, while the highlights were shown, the scroll said it was Brewers 4 Mets 4. They must be watching on Yahoo!

Wayne Hagin who I like only sometimes really handled the call well, particularly the build-up. I could see Sheff adjusting his timing right and there was enough edge to Hagin that I felt he might just do it. Hey, hell. Congrats to Gary. He's been an excellent pickup -- the kind of real bench threat this team hasn't had since... uh... Tony Clark?

Edgy DC Apr 17 2009 10:19 PM

Tony Clark. I'm just getting back from the symphony. How does 13 hits and seven walks = only five runs?

John Cougar Lunchbucket Apr 17 2009 10:34 PM

Bunting! That and a bad night for Beltran.

Edgy DC Apr 17 2009 10:54 PM

Yeah, six lobbies is suckaphonic. I'm playing around with a plan to move him to second and Murphy to sixth before he becomes the forgotten man, but it's not playing out.

Plus I think there was barely a ground-swell for a curtain-call. More like Sheffield (who was obviously enjoying the moment) reacted to the still-buzzing crowd and took one anyway. I'm sure there were some fans who wanted one (hell, they've been conditioned to expect one for almost every HR) but it's not like the crowd was going to grow restless - a la Beltran 4 years ago - if he didn't take one.

BTW, I think I made a new Mets fan. 22F friend of mine came over on the way to a party and caught the 9th inning. Lots of happy yelling and jumping around my apartment ensued. Her: "Is it always like this?" Me: "Yes. Yes, it is."

Swan Swan H Apr 18 2009 09:06 AM

The timing of the homer, pulling the team back from what had all the makings of another score early, try to run out the clock and lose late loss, had something to do with the fans response as well. Any of the other 24 guys would have gotten called back out there, I'd think. Others said it earlier, but I concur - it's nice to see a guy who can actually hit step out of the dugout when the Mets really need a hit. Enough with the Ice Williams, Ramon Martinez and Chip Ambres.

Edgy DC Apr 18 2009 10:58 AM

Did somebody just disrespect Chp Ambres?

Swan Swan H Apr 19 2009 06:57 AM

I think actually being remembered at this stage is about as much respect as he's gonna get.

Benjamin Grimm Apr 19 2009 07:34 AM

Wasn't his one hit as a Met a game-winner?
