Castillo with the up-the-gullet base hit. No sprains while rounding first, or stopping, or returning to first.

STERLING Willie MaysTM catch from Pagan on Everth "Devastator" Cabrera.

Mild friskiness from the Met O, as singles from Frenchy, Andy Hernandy and Johan produce a run and two LOB.

How much must it sting to be batted eighth in either of these lineups?

Nice little ~ 20 minute umpire-gets-his-bell-rung delay as Randy Marsh took
one off the chin with the best of them. I mean, the mic'd version sounded
just nasty.

It did sound nasty...

The last 20 minutes just cemented a thought I've had for a while - I would tune in to listen to Gary and Ron (and Keith) just shoot the breeze about baseball even if there wasn't a game on.

It's the fact that as good as Ron is, Gary is just one of us. I loved the story he told about keeping score until the 25th inning as Hank Webb threw a pick-off throw away, and Bake McBride scored from first....

Again, I can't escape the fact that his name is Randy Marsh.

You don't mess around with Jo.

Oscar Salazar gives us our first break in about a week.

Just when they were finishing up that story KB walked into the room and I
had a big stupid grin on and she said, "what?"

"Ah, nothing ... just listenin' and grinnin'."

"The category is... umpires who are terrible at their jobs."

Johan's probably demanding to go the whole game, and I can't blame him.

Come on, complete game. (With 1st and 2nd occupied, David Wright could help by killing the save opportunity.)

Apparently, Southern California Marines also leave games early.

So we've got (at least) a 4 run lead and a half-inning to go and Frankie warming up.

So what are our odds of pulling this one out? 30% I figure, maybe 40%.

Was Johan over 100 pitches or something? You'd think he'd be demanding to stay in there, considering recent history.

Crap, it's Frankie.

To get his shit back together and the memory of his last two outings out of his head.

Who had "third-batter-in-the-inning" for "first XBH against Frankie?"

Collect your prize.

Apologies to Frankie. He got the job done.
