Recker penciled as starting catcher but dArnaud en route. Mrs Buck delivering.

The gangs all here. But who's that guy?

Edgy MD Aug 16 2013 08:13 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

It's Lundy. Both starting catchers on maternity leave? That's gotta be a first.

Edgy MD Aug 16 2013 08:17 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Hundley flubs the nubber. Based loaded for Baxter. Baxter? MEOW MEOW MEOW MEOW

Edgy MD Aug 16 2013 08:21 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

That's Chase Headley, winner of David Wright's 2012 Gold Glove.

Edgy MD Aug 16 2013 08:25 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

When the highest-profile sponsor the San Diego Padres can find for behind-the-plate advertising is a bail bondsman*, I'm wondering if our society is doomed. *Life, of course, imitating satire here, as "Chico's Bail Bonds" was the famed sponsor of the Bad News Bears.

Is it just me, or is Niese getting fat around the ass and belly?

Ashie62 Aug 16 2013 08:33 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Stuck in Philly with the Douchenoozles..no Mets here...

TRAVIS! TRAVIS! TRA...RECKER! RECKER!

John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 16 2013 08:41 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Hey, a Mets pitcher has a counterproductive turn at bat. Go figure!

Zvon Aug 16 2013 08:43 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Productive ground out by the slumping Young. 1-0

Fman99 Aug 16 2013 08:58 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

KABOOM

John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 16 2013 08:58 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Another Byrd dropping.

I'm glad I'm not a Kennedy.

No lone gunman tonight. Evidence points to multiple boomers.

Zvon Aug 16 2013 09:03 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

And the recording indicates there were at least three kaBOOMs, so.......

Edgy MD Aug 16 2013 09:06 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Two hits by Recker. "Take your time, John," he says. "Your family needs you."

I'll testify to not hearing that shot.

Zvon Aug 16 2013 09:18 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Just say it Gary. Amarro shudda been fired instead of Charlie.

Not appearing in this game: Cliff Lee, Matt Harvey, Roy Oswalt, Jackie Bradley, or Rubby de la Rosa,

MUFFY!

Frayed Knot Aug 16 2013 09:30 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Muffy makes me nervous when he sits just behind the grass cutout to field grounders. I always think he's going to play himself into a bad hop.

Zvon Aug 16 2013 09:35 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

The runner was right in front of you Josh.

I'm disappointed. Satin swinging at the breaking ball beneath the knees. I think Ike may have transferred his bug to his firstbasin' brother.

Edgy MD Aug 16 2013 09:48 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Colt Hines sighting.

Edgy MD Aug 16 2013 10:02 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Hey, Headley, give back that Gold Glove and I'll take the whammy off.

Zvon Aug 16 2013 10:04 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Niese with 7 Ks after five, working for the fans.

Frayed Knot Aug 16 2013 10:15 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Yeah, but between the high pitch counts from all those Ks and the leadoff runners he's given up in almost every inning, he's walking a fine line despite the early lead.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 16 2013 10:20 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Zvon wrote: Niese with 7 Ks after five, working for the fans. A sign of the balancing act he's had to walk in four of those five, or-- given the discount thing-- a really subtle F-you to his employers?

If Baxters drive cleared that wall it would have been a conspiracy.

Zvon Aug 16 2013 10:27 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Baxter makes like a witness and is eliminated.

Zvon Aug 16 2013 10:30 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Okay, I'm running out of material Recker. WTF?

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 16 2013 10:32 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

One out steal of third, on that count? That took some serious whitestones. Now, Recker's? Chalk it up to d'pressure to make something happen.

Frayed Knot Aug 16 2013 10:34 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Terry either loves double-switches or hates Satin's defense - or probably both.

Zvon Aug 16 2013 10:38 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Nice leather from Red.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 16 2013 10:39 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Indeed. In other news, I finally got the this-guy-looks-like-THAT-guy that's been killing me since yesterday-- Denorfia is Adrien Brody, Utility Outfielder.

Still plenty of queso and huevos left in the pen, though, apparently. Nice work to get the first two by Torres.

Zvon Aug 16 2013 11:02 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

OH! Great flip Ike, good call ump! Great play!

John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 16 2013 11:02 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Wow, another play destined for video review

John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 16 2013 11:04 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Fine job of keeping that inning from getting away by Torres.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 16 2013 11:05 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Guzman made like that last step hit the bag, but blue's not fooled. Pretty sneaky, sis!

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 16 2013 11:07 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Gyorko just pulled a Beltran-- that play in the hole to get Byrd was a LOT harder than he made it look.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Aug 16 2013 11:16 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Cmon blue

Zvon Aug 16 2013 11:17 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

27% off on those tickets. 5-2 lead, bad call on a DP try in the ninth, and Ike's head almost explodes. Calm down son.

Zvon Aug 16 2013 11:19 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

Almost got another DP. Ha. Hawkins is the beast with no balls. Or real solid balls.

Zvon Aug 16 2013 11:23 PM Re: Kennedy Assassination IGT 8/16/13

GG! Be nice to win a few more in a row here but if you can't, just keep rackin up those strikeouts Mets pitchers. For the fans!
