IGT 9/5/10 - Trying To Salvage Labor Day Weekend

We're going out for the day with the Mets up 2-1 in the 2nd. Hawkman helps his own cause with an RBI single.

It's up to you guys to keep the lead while we're out!

Pagan RF
Hernandez 2B
Beltran CF
Davis 1B
Hessman 3B
Duda LF
Thole C
Tejada SS
Niese P

I think this is the first time all season there's nobody in the starting lineup who was in the opening day lineup.

Gawwwwwwwdammit. If he's fouling off all of your best stuff, and has been hitting everything out of the park lately... is putting him on semi-intentionally a bad idea?

(Although that was a fun little cam shot of Niese mouthing "no way" as he watched it go.)

Great slide by Hernandez to tie it up. Beautiful fall day for baseball.

Surprised to see Dempster still in there.

Duda up with bases loaded, no outs, bases empty. 1-2 count.

Strikes him out.

After Thole suffered the same fate as Duda, who figured Tejada would get a knock. Pleasant surprise.

Re: IGT 9/5/10 - Trying To Salvage Labor Day Weekend

Thole goes down looking and it looked like fanning three rookies would get Dempster out of it, but Tejada pokes one to center and it's 6-4.

Niese adds one and it's 704. In the Mets' lineup, it's...

Mets have seven runs today, scored by seven different guys. Tejada and Niese are our two runless Mets.

That's eight Mets scoring a single run today. Everybody but Niese.

Two run homer for Davis followed by a near-homer double for Hessman, trying to save his career.

Re: IGT 9/5/10 - Trying To Salvage Labor Day Weekend

cripes. what is the point of Ollie taking a slot if he dont pitch here?
If I were him I wouldn't even bother suiting up anymore.
Just sit out there in my civies.

Totally valid! If this isn't a safe Ollie situation, they you might as well send him home right now.

I can't wait for the callers to WFAN who say that the lineup is better without Wright and Reyes.
