Shit, maybe they'll play.

Edgy DC May 18 2011 05:39 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Mes lead, 1-0 on a Reyes single, a Turner dubble, and a Bay sacrifice fly.

themetfairy May 18 2011 06:18 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Niese is at bat - we want a triple!

themetfairy May 18 2011 06:22 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

I guess not. Still 1-0 after four. ================================ D-Dad noticed the advertisements for the soccer match and could practically hear Pete Flynn's tears over what it's going to do to the field.

Ceetar May 18 2011 06:30 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

official. let it rain, i'm sleepy.

Edgy DC May 18 2011 06:32 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

The Dodge Charger back-to-back challenge is one hell of a stacked deck. "Do the Mets have to hit a homer for you to win?" "Yeah, but they have to hit in that inning." "Oh, but then you win?" "No, they have to hit another." "Two in one inning?" "Yup." "That's rare, isn't it?" "Pretty rare." "But then you win?" "No, they have to hit them consecutively." "Seriously?" "Seriously." "But then you win." "No, they have to be the first two batters of the inning." "You're fucking with me." "Nope." "Has that ever happened for the Mets." "Probably. Maybe. I don't know. Once or twice, I guess." "In how many games?" "Do I look like Greg Prince? About 8,000, More or less." "But then you win?!" "if they pick your name out of a hat before the inning." "Damn. Just what kind of car is a Dodge Charger." "A piece of shit. Why?"

Edgy DC May 18 2011 06:35 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Bay whiffed in a big spot by his ol' Bucco teammate. Maybe his wife needs to have another bayby.

John Cougar Lunchbucket May 18 2011 06:35 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Bay needs to be hitting second. For Buffalo.

Ceetar May 18 2011 06:37 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

those challenges are always silly. Triple play was popular for a while, there was a cycle one for a bit..

John Cougar Lunchbucket May 18 2011 06:39 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

I also don't like Muffy hitting 5th vs. a lefty.

Frayed Knot May 18 2011 06:39 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Hey, next inning we should try to leave two men on or something -- 8 LOBsters thru 5 innings.

Frayed Knot May 18 2011 06:43 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Gutsy play by Muffy

Edgy DC May 18 2011 06:49 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Hairston has been hitting some mighty powerful fouls against this team. Straighten it out, Scotty.

Edgy DC May 18 2011 06:50 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Hey, Jerry. Eat that ball. Your brother won that round.

Frayed Knot May 18 2011 06:51 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Got the leadoff guy on. Now just one more and we can leave them both on.

John Cougar Lunchbucket May 18 2011 06:55 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Boy it is pouring out there right now.

John Cougar Lunchbucket May 18 2011 06:56 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Justin Turner Friggin Overdrive

Edgy DC May 18 2011 06:57 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Man, Reyes just smells home plate and tracks it down.

Frayed Knot May 18 2011 07:03 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

I'm gonna break out the hats and hooters since Jose came home. Justin Turner is a red-headed God!!

Frayed Knot May 18 2011 07:16 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

We need one more out here and we need it NOW!!!!

themetfairy May 18 2011 07:20 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Whew! Niese gets out of the bases loaded jam unscathed.

Shouldn't the fact that they're playing tomorrow-- on a short turnaround, no less-- play into the umps' thinking?

Frayed Knot May 18 2011 07:36 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

OK, time to call this game

Frayed Knot May 18 2011 07:38 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Phils win 2-1 over Rox as Madson Ks Giambi with 2-on in the 9th. O's tally one against Mariano after Colon tossed an 8-inning 3-hit shutout. 1-1 heading for 10th

Fman99 May 18 2011 07:40 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Gotta wonder what the crew chief is thinking out there. The next game starts in 15.5 hours, boys. (And Fboy and I will be there and if you're a CPF'er I'll buy you a beer if you come find me you bastards!)

Fman99 May 18 2011 07:44 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Stop waving and put your phone away, ass. We see you.

themetfairy May 18 2011 07:46 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Fman - when are you guys getting there? I can give you guys a mini tour of the place if you like. I know you've been there before, but I don't know how much you have and haven't seen (e.g., the Shea base markers in the parking lot).

Lefty Specialist May 18 2011 07:49 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

My god, Slaten looks just like John Maine. Eerie.

Frayed Knot May 18 2011 07:55 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Hey, I've got a good idea, let's NOT bring the tying run to the plate!

My intention is to get on the road between 7 and 7:30 and get down there sometime between 12-12:30 or so. I like to let Fboy hit the kids area, bat off the tee, get a souvenir, etc. prior to game time if possible. We've been there twice, seen the museum and so on. Though this will be our first time not in the Promenade.... Send me a PM with your cell phone # and I'll text you once we're at the field.

Fman99 May 18 2011 07:59 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

C'mon, Frankie. Quit tap dancing out there.

PiggiesTomatoes May 18 2011 08:01 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Nice infield. What a mess. Frankie, too.

Fman99 May 18 2011 08:02 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Put it in the books!

John Cougar Lunchbucket May 18 2011 08:49 PM Re: IGT 05/18/11-Nationals @ Mets

Went out for a run in that weather round the 7th, conditions were definitely silly. Frayed Knot wrote: O's tally one against Mariano after Colon tossed an 8-inning 3-hit shutout. 1-1 heading for 10th Tuned over to this one after the Mets won. MFYs only run came as a result of an error after having picked off Gayrod. Mariano blew it but O's wasted a gold opp in the 10th when Lukke Retard Scott whiffed with 1st & 3rd, 1 out. Loaded them in the 12th now but can't score. Sterling for some reason is doing this game solo, no Suzyn, be funny if it goes 20.

We had tickets for this, but-- with baby in tow-- decided at the last minute to back out. I'm all right with that. If I'm Reyes-- or anyone-- tomorrow, I'm bunting until they start playing in on the grass.
