Mets need to drive through McDonald to FINALLY win a road series in an N.L. park. Seems we hit him pretty good in L.A.

We can hit?

Second verse, essentially the same as the first. Jose Reyes - SS Angel Pagan - LF Carlos Beltran - CF Chris Carter - RF David Wright - 3B Ike Davis - 1B Josh Thole - C Ruben Tejada - 2B Jonathon Niese - P

"I don't think that this lineup is composed with the best interests of the team in mind. If they're giving up on the season, they should just say so, so that I can slam them for giving up on the season."

Shouldn't that be "so we can slam them"?
Or has Frenchy been fired?

Forgot about the Borgish "we." Of course, we.

In a hitters only meeting Friday Hojo called them out for the lack of offence. Wright today when asked what effect that meeting had on the O last night said, As much as l love HoJo, I don’t think we were going out there to win one for the Gipper." Kind of a dumb question anyway.

how bad's the rain delay

John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 21 2010 05:24 PM Re: IGT 8/21/10 NYM @ PIT: Parrot Last Night's Result

Starting shortly

[quote="duan":2a75wdsz]how bad's the rain delay[/quote:2a75wdsz] It wouldn't stop a game of hurling or soccer for that matter..... good luck in the big game against Cork tomorrow Duan.

We're on. Up 1-0 after half an inning. But Reyes scored with a head first slide into the catcher's shin guard, which seemed to shake him up.

tbh I won't really notice one way or the other I love football (as in soccer) that's what I play and what I care about however, the mrs and her family from Mayo care plenty more (she won all - ireland medals as a youngster) and because they're mayo i generally get to laugh.

Who's on the hill for Pittsburgh: Satchel Paige?

1-1 after 3 :(

2-1 now on a Ruben Tejada sac fly.

[quote="Valadius":2af7w44h]2-1 now on a Ruben Tejada sac fly.[/quote:2af7w44h] Did an infielder fall down after he caught it, allowing the run to score? Because usually, sac flies involve getting the ball past the infield.

A 3-run Kaboom from Dabidrye makes it 5-1 Mets! Now let's make the game official!

bmfc1 Aug 21 2010 06:43 PM Re: IGT 8/21/10 NYM @ PIT: Parrot Last Night's Result

That's an eyebrow raiser from David!

John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 21 2010 06:59 PM Re: IGT 8/21/10 NYM @ PIT: Parrot Last Night's Result

Put it in the official books!

themetfairy Aug 21 2010 06:59 PM Re: IGT 8/21/10 NYM @ PIT: Parrot Last Night's Result

And it's an official game!

metsguyinmichigan Aug 21 2010 07:01 PM Re: IGT 8/21/10 NYM @ PIT: Parrot Last Night's Result

If we wanted to play the Pirates every night, I'd be OK with that.

Bring out the tarps!

If he called for a hitters meeting in the beginning of the week no one would have shown.
badaBOOM

Just saw Wrights blast
CRUSHED.

So this game is a wash, huh?
Kool, I'll take the win.

Mets get their second cheapie of the year. Rain held off just in time. - Could be worse, KC & ChiSox got rained out Friday night and are playing a DH tonight ... starting at 6PM local time?!?! How nutty is that? Was something going on at 4 that prevented them from using the stadium? And worse yet, their in the 11th inning in game 1. Game 2 probably doesn't start until at least 9. - Phils just lost to Nats - Cool Hand Luke is just coming on TCM

Mets move into a tie with LA and can leapfrog Colorado and Florida tomorrow: I'm taking credit here. My theory is that the team reads the CPF and finally decided to put the cocksucker Frenchy on the bench for good against righties after reading about my boycott. Fuck you, Jeff Francoeur.

Fuck you, Jeff Francoeur.[/quote:1urx29i5] lol. K, the historical, erase everything that we have suffered the last 3 years, drive to the top has started. Its the Mets. From the spring to the mediocre to the top to the doldrums to 10 games out and then back to the top. I love rollercoasters. We all know, watching this season, some of the play we have seen, that at this point its a minor miracle that they even still have a chance. Time to call in that major miracle.

Any truth to the rumor that the Mets called for rain so they could help limit Niese's innings?

I'm figuring there weren't a whole lot of people there at the end.
