Quick turn around today. Trying to make the first losing series in a while not be the first sweep in a while. Day off tomorrow, all hands on deck, stand tall, it's Dickey day.

Fred Lewis 4-for-10 lifetime vs. Wainwright. Clever of Terry to keep him out of the lineup.

2-0 bases-loaded curve-balls are nice Wainwright, but you have to get your fast-ball over once in a while too.

Somebody toss Wainwright a fork, a knife and a napkin because Ike says he can EAT IT!

Shelby Miller on to pitch.
This guy has been one of the top pitching prospects in baseball over the last few years but stumbled this year to become one of the more disappointing prospects.

Let's say we ruin his debut? And then we can make fun of him on account of his name being Shelby.

This looks to be going well. Ike smacks another, sweet. Phils won vs. the Reds today :(

To heck with the Phils. They're toast. I wanted to catch the Cards.

Can we get a do-over on the first two games?

We really screwed ourselves dropping the first game of this series. That's the one I want back.

Re: IGT Afternoon Bout w/ Cardinals 9/5/12

Weird mound visit from Terry-- hopping out of the dugout just before RA starts his windup-- precedes a line-drive single from Jon Jay, which ends Dickey's day.

Ol' Lefty Death & Taxes-- inevitable Josh Edgin-- ends the inning with a strikeout.

Words that may never have been spoken before - "Josh Thole has an infield single."

And Torres' infield hit gets the run back that we lost last inning!

If we were the Sox, our manager would have just gotten here 10 minutes ago.

Aside from the fact that the Mets like last 9 outs have been Ks, they're doing OK here.

Re: IGT Afternoon Bout w/ Cardinals 9/5/12

Mitchell Boggs, Lance Lynn, Shelby Miller, and Adron Chambers --- four St. Louis Cardinals who sound like solid votes to repeal the capital gains tax.

I want to golf with those guys.

Despite losing two of three, there was something kind of appealing about this series.

Last out on an appeal play when Chambers failed to touch second on his way back to first on the second out, a fly ball to right.

LOL Cardinals.

That's not what a playoff team does in September.

Playoff team doesn't blow ninth-inning six-run lead either but so did eventual 2011 World Champion Cardinals -- to something resembling these Mets, too.

But, yes -- LOL Cardinals anyway.
