Mmm. Cora batting second.

Even if the roof isn't open, CSB is shining down on the SHaMs today!

John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 12 2009 02:05 PM Ollie pins a guy at 3rd with 1 out with a couple whiffs. 24 pitch inning but nice. LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 12 2009 02:07 PM Retires Oeltjen, works around a one-out triple by Ojeda, and does a not-too-shabby job of pitching around Reynolds (who was weirdly selective). By Jove, think Ollie's got it? Fman99 Aug 12 2009 02:08 PM Left work early to play 9, home just in time to see Omir GIDP. Drat. LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 12 2009 02:15 PM FROM THE SILVER LINING DEPARTMENT: They're making Garland throw a bunch of pitches, and not-- Francoeur and Santos excepted (as usual)-- taking terrible at-bats. Fman99 Aug 12 2009 02:18 PM Ollie has thrown a first pitch ball to every hitter so far. Uh, boo?

The roof is closed, I presume.

The roof is closed, I presume. Should make it easier to stay on. John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 12 2009 02:36 PM Getting away with walking the leadoff batter only lasts for so long. Who'dve thunk it? Frayed Knot Aug 12 2009 02:39 PM Good block of the plate by Santos yields a questionable out call. MFS62 Aug 12 2009 02:42 PM Ollie is going to give me an ulcer. Later Valadius Aug 12 2009 02:43 PM Ollie is going to give me brain damage. Frayed Knot Aug 12 2009 03:07 PM The good news, still only 1 run off Ollie thru 4. Bad news: runners all over the place on 90+ pitches and 5 walks. Oh yeah, and we're getting shut out again. MFS62 Aug 12 2009 03:14 PM Oeltjen is the evil spawn of a rabid kangaroo and an emu. Later Frayed Knot Aug 12 2009 03:14 PM Mets finally hit something the Arizona OF can't come up with as Sullivan nails a 2-out triple. Benjamin Grimm Aug 12 2009 03:14 PM Two-out triple from Cory Sullivan. metsguyinmichigan Aug 12 2009 03:19 PM ="LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr"] ="Edgy DC"]As Ollie struggles to get out of a two-on, one-out jam, I notice the Weather Channel is listing gametime temp as 105. The roof is closed, I presume. Should make it easier to stay on. It's freaking amazing that he survived that walk. Incomphrensible, even today. Frayed Knot Aug 12 2009 03:21 PM It would be very impossible today. See the documentary - there's a discussion of it in the Film forum. John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 12 2009 03:30 PM Ollie: 6 hits (4 for xtra bases), 6 walks in 5 innings ... and only 1 run. Get off my mound. Valadius Aug 12 2009 04:06 PM How in the hell did the Mets score three runs? See, this is what it's come to - I'm questioning my team when THEY score runs. LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 12 2009 04:29 PM Santos takes a hell of hit... to no avail. We're not even taking those games that Fate lists in our direction. LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 12 2009 04:41 PM LUIS! HOTLINE! FRISSSSKY! LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 12 2009 04:59 PM Intentionally walking Francoeur? Regardless of result, it looks and feels unnatural, like when they overfeed those geese for foix gras. LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 12 2009 05:05 PM Productive strikeout from Tatis! (Or, rather, shitty blocking job from defensive sub Montero.) Bring on the Frankie. Edgy DC Aug 12 2009 05:33 PM Hey, we won! I'm on a winning streak. Farmer Ted Aug 12 2009 05:40 PM Jon Rauch is a large human being. One that could do damage if you get in front of him.
