First go round with the southern forces this season..

If by "southern forces," you mean "Phils fans trekking north" or "the animal-energy-radiating Yoni below Cole Hamels' belt," then yes. Gee was terrible at CBP, as he tends to be (10.71 ERA/2.05 WHIP/6 HRs allowed/1 non-terrible start in 4 career turns), but he does have a decent, if distortingly-brief track record at Citi vs. the Phils (2 starts, 12 IP, 16 baserunners, 7 K/1 BB, 1 HR allowed).

I'm hoping General Gee can get it done sir...

Zvon Apr 26 2013 02:36 PM Re: IGT 4/26/13 Phillies @ Mets Kendrick v. Gee

Gee will rise to this occasion.

Rollins with a lead off walk is picked off by Gee. He was safe, but we'll take it.

Home plate ump threwup and there is a delay of game.

Zvon Apr 26 2013 05:32 PM Re: IGT 4/26/13 Phillies @ Mets Kendrick v. Gee

I'm blacked out on MLB.TV . I do get the game from the local Philly channel. They would not replay the ump hurling, which is fine w/me. They do report he became ill during the Murphy squibble out. Did they show it on SNY?

Ashie62 Apr 26 2013 05:37 PM Re: IGT 4/26/13 Phillies @ Mets Kendrick v. Gee

Just tuning in now and I missed the barf.. 14 minute delay but not counted as official delay in game. The Aramark is being blamed..

Ashie62 Apr 26 2013 05:45 PM Re: IGT 4/26/13 Phillies @ Mets Kendrick v. Gee

You would think but that is what Gary said. Eno's pregame stylings are now being blamed for the barf..

Gee works around that (on a fly that hung up for about three seconds, no less) courtesy-of-our-two-better-defensive-OFs gift double to Nix nicely. I forgot how good he could look when he's not being fucking terrible.

Gary and Keith speculating about Duda and 'Spin's "communication" in the outfield. I like to think they've settled on their own private semi-verbal system, consisting of hoots, grunts, and unintelligible mumbles.

Zvon Apr 26 2013 06:20 PM Re: IGT 4/26/13 Phillies @ Mets Kendrick v. Gee

Did not expect a pitching duel. Can they both keep this up? I think not.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Apr 26 2013 06:21 PM Re: IGT 4/26/13 Phillies @ Mets Kendrick v. Gee

I have no recollection of Kendrick's off-speed stuff ever being this consistently filthy. It's as if he stumbled on some of Johan's old JR Watkins in the bowels of CitiField pregame, and has somehow been gifted a temporarily Johanny change-up.

I thought Shea was the only stadium with bowels.

First and third with no out for the Phils in the 6th. This does not bode well. And it doesn't. Young drives in Rollins with a solid single past the drawn in infield.

Ceetar Apr 26 2013 06:46 PM Re: IGT 4/26/13 Phillies @ Mets Kendrick v. Gee

and crap, Howard connects. 4-0.

Zvon Apr 26 2013 06:46 PM Re: IGT 4/26/13 Phillies @ Mets Kendrick v. Gee

Shitfuckdamn. Howard cashes in.

Zvon Apr 26 2013 06:47 PM Re: IGT 4/26/13 Phillies @ Mets Kendrick v. Gee

What are those two things on the mound near Gee? Oh, that's his wheels.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Apr 26 2013 07:04 PM Re: IGT 4/26/13 Phillies @ Mets Kendrick v. Gee

Before this game got all stupid, Keith sharing his memories of the McDowell-Jefferies fight of 1989 was priceless. Keith mentioned that Jefferies drew some derision because he kept his precious bats in a separate bag. McDowell, then with Philly, sawed him off and broke one and as Jefferies went to first said "put that in your bag!" which started the brawl.

Zvon Apr 26 2013 07:13 PM Re: IGT 4/26/13 Phillies @ Mets Kendrick v. Gee

What happened to being patient at the plate? We saw 6 pitches that whole inning. And only two hits off Kendrick? Come ooooooon.

Fman99 Apr 26 2013 07:45 PM Re: IGT 4/26/13 Phillies @ Mets Kendrick v. Gee

Ugh. One bad inning by Gee. No bad innings by Kyle Schmendrick.

Zvon Apr 26 2013 07:46 PM Re: IGT 4/26/13 Phillies @ Mets Kendrick v. Gee

Kyle Kendrick. That was the third complete game and second shutout of his entire career. That deserves one big [bigpurple:1qzlwbge]GAH![/bigpurple:1qzlwbge]

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Apr 26 2013 07:50 PM Re: IGT 4/26/13 Phillies @ Mets Kendrick v. Gee

To be fair, how can you reasonably expect to get more than 3 hits and see more than 100 or so pitches from Kyle Kendrick? This is no joker lefty with a lapdog or a Cy Young pretender with Amish facial hair... this is Kyle F. Kendrick, people.

Frayed Knot Apr 26 2013 08:02 PM Re: IGT 4/26/13 Phillies @ Mets Kendrick v. Gee

At least it was quick(er). We've been playing some long-ass games so far this season.

On to the next one..
