The rout is on! Well, they got one run, anyway, on a Frenchy double (well hit but misplayed) and a Tatis single. Murphy (line out) and Santos (single) also hit the ball hard, and Andy Handy is up, 2 on and 2 out.

This season has gotten so bad that when I saw that the Mets scored a run, my first reaction was merely, "Oh."

In Scranton/Wilkes-Barre (wherever they play their home games), a seventh-inning RBI single by Josh Peterson has put the Bisons on top of the Yankees 1-0. Jesus Feliciano is 3-4 and has his average up to .307.

Hey, Sheffie is out with a back cramp.
In SWB, Chris Mason has yielded, after seven shutout innings, to Adam Bostick and Jim Ed Warden (who the f...?) who pitch a scoreless eighth. We're in the ninth.

Consecutive Gameday updates:
<ul><li>New York Mets left fielder Gary Sheffield left the game due to an injured back.</li> <li>Florida Marlins catcher John Baker left the game due to an injured back.</li></ul>Dog days, baby.

Sheffield was coming hard around third, and then tried to score backwards, and Baker tried to block the plate backwards as a counterattack, and, well, you know.
Then Fernando Tatis was struck by lightning.

Three-run rally capped by an Argenis Reyes RBI double. Four-zip, kids!

Warden gets the save and it's a shoutout for the Buffs.
Mets meanwhile get through the bottom of the eighth and look for a win with the league's least powerful team in the league's most power-absobing ballpark. And it's raining.
Let's go, Mets!

Sad ass night at the plate. Rinse, repeat.

I understand, the only thing left to play for is because the games are on the schedule. I don't want to hear "spoiler" crap.
I try to take each game as an entity unto itself. Try to enjoy them as a single night, in summer, a game's on, Mets are playing, let's see if they can make a game of it. The kind of thing I'll be pining for in January. But they're so god damned bad at the dish.

To see if Francoeur and/or Santos can put up OBPs over .300 for the year?
Failing that, there's always the mordant humor-- now that Johan's gone, I'm done feeling bad-- in seeing who'll go down next. Think of it as an orange-and-blue Summerstock edition of "Final Destination."
