NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13

July still the only winning month for the Mets, but a win tonight will finish it off at a not-entirely-wretched 14-15. A loss and were about as good as May.

Doodoo wants to playplay.

Too bad he can't fieldfield. We need a DH next weekend in Cleveland, right?

Finally, got both crazy "d" guy-names in the same lineup. And by "finally," I mean after a few days.

I like that he's exploring a little bit with the two-centerfielder formation and whatnot. This adventurousness... it's... exciting.

I haven't been this excited since Beltran and Cameron both went after the same ball! (Gotta stop defaulting to the worst possible precedent.)

Washington's fading wild card chances rest tonight on these slender shoulders:

Must be nice to be able to run the same starting eight out there almost every night. - Only Lombardozzi in for Rendon is a deviation from their usual set-up - Only Rendon in for Espinosa is a change from how they drew it up last winter. - Only Harper and his approx month-long knee problem plus Ramos being in and out during various spans have missed any appreciable time the whole season. And yet, somehow through all of that, the Mets have outscored the Nats by four runs this year in one fewer game.

Hey, danger's sexy, too. Just slap some of those alternate-Saturday-night blue-and-orange jumpsuits on 'em, and crank the Monster Magnet dubstep remix, and you've got Jackass Night, motherfathers! By the by, this is some great pain medication my friend gave me.

Someone like Rusty Trombone could put the Gnats over the top...

Spanning the globe doesn't help the Nats. Denard dives, Omar drives in two!

Zvon Aug 31 2013 05:49 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
There goes Ike. Sheesh. Intercoastal and it looked painful. Only the fact that we have many to see at first makes me feel anything good about this.

Satins running is anything but aerodynamic.

As a USF Bull, I'm not fond of the Florida Gators, to put it mildly. But I'll make an exception for Matt den Dekker.

The other d' with his first hit in the history of M.L. baseball, an RBI bloop single.

Hey, this is fun. They should do it more often.
|
Zvon Aug 31 2013 06:05 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
Wow. 6 runs in the 3rd. I'll be very happy when the Nats are home watching post season play along with us :)

G-Fafif Aug 31 2013 06:09 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
I'm provisionally pretending this is payback for the sweep at Shea in September 2007.

The Nats destroyed the Mets' hopes and now the Mets are destroying the Nats' hopes.

Whatever works. Seeing a lil giddyup on Wheelers high heat. lil bit.

Doodoo step over Ikeike. Doodoo get to playplay, but Doodoo sad.

Hope Lucas embraces the confidence the organization might show in him by reluctantly allowing him to temporary replace the .205-hitting first baseman in whom they have limited faith.

So many media outlets say they'll shy away from making reference to the Redskins this fall. I imagine there'll be no similar soul-searching needed regarding the use of "Nationals" come October.

Honestly, I'm as thrilled-- maybe more-- when my boy's walking as when he's putting wood on it.

O, was that nice.

Zvon Aug 31 2013 07:25 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
Wow, what a flying grab. Qs having a hellofa game.

Edgy MD Aug 31 2013 07:36 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
Eric Young wasn't born. He was created in a government lab at the Ministry of Hustle.
|
Edgy MD Aug 31 2013 07:37 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
That's nine runs.
|
Edgy MD Aug 31 2013 07:43 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
See, two-run single there. They could have pinch-run Turner for Murphy or Satin, but they just don't care about re-familiarizing him with the plate.

themetfairy Aug 31 2013 07:44 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
No gulps of Schaefer for anyone tonight, but a lot of sips to go around.
|
LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 31 2013 07:46 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
Well, TrainingWheels might get a little more'n a sip.

Hey, Bryce. Smart thinking there.

An old baseball axiom is that you shouldn't make the first or the last out of an inning at third. (I wouldn't want to make any out there). So, thank you for trying for third ... PUNK! Is that #12 for Lagares? Later
|
Zvon Aug 31 2013 08:02 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
Missed the Harper out at third when it happened. Just saw the replay. Hahahahahahaha,Harper you suck AND you're an idiot.
|
Edgy MD Aug 31 2013 08:03 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
It's a league-leading #12 for Lagares.
|
Zvon Aug 31 2013 08:07 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
Turner refuses to join the party. That makes him a party pooper.
|
MFS62 Aug 31 2013 08:09 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
Unless the Mets have a heckuva inning, he won't have a chance to score a run in this game.
|
Frayed Knot Aug 31 2013 08:11 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
Nats have a bunch of soft hits and some hard outs tonight - so I guess it all evens out.
|
Zvon Aug 31 2013 08:16 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
This has been a weird season. After the Harvey news I thought whats the point of watching now? But a few of these recent games have been some of the most enjoyable games of the season. Baseball is such a wonderful game.

themetfairy Aug 31 2013 08:21 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
The post-game interview with Young is cracking me up. It's like he's studied the Big Book of Baseball Cliches and he's spitting out as many of them as he can quickly remember
|
Zvon Aug 31 2013 08:23 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
Great game. :)

Edgy MD Aug 31 2013 08:24 PM Re: NYM @ WAS, 8/31/13 |
You should hear Juan Lagares on with Ed Coleman on the radio.
