IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Leake!

Zvon Sep 24 2013 03:50 PM

Good evening Mr. Pool Your mission, if you decide to accept it, is to stop the Reds pitcher Michael Leake (14-6, 3.21 ERA) who has been utterly dominant of late, winning three straight starts behind a 0.84 ERA. He's thrown a career-high 20 1-3 scoreless innings over that stretch and is also trying to win a career-high fourth straight start, and he hasn't put together a longer single-season winning streak since beginning his career 5-0 over his first 11 starts of 2010. Can't choose pictures this time Mr. Pool. This is your team: As usual, if any of your CPF force are caught or captured, the GM will disavow any knowledge of your activity. Good luck, Mr. Pool

Stupid, headwrappin', can't-spoil-a-banana bunch.

Playball! Forever Young! MuffyPop! Mr. Wright.

42 stolen bases for Young folks.

Zvon Sep 24 2013 05:21 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Bullshit Randazzo!

Zvon Sep 24 2013 05:30 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

[bigpurple:2dtz9vef]OH YEA![/bigpurple:2dtz9vef] Take that Choo! Now does it matter if you keep 17 as your uni number?

Zvon Sep 24 2013 05:31 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Real great throw by Lagares shuts the Reds down cold. 0-0

Zvon Sep 24 2013 05:35 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Ha! Bruce sucks! Not joking this time, he really does suck.

Edgy MD Sep 24 2013 05:41 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Tovar > Cozar

Zvon Sep 24 2013 05:44 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Choo don't throw as good as Laggy. Hope he's okay with playing left. Bax doubles and Tovar drives him home nicely, taking second on the Choo.throw. 1-0 Mets WHOA! Tovar out at the plate on Niese single. Nice throw by Bruce. And I cant hit post before Young bounces one over the CF wall! Still, 1-0

Edgy MD Sep 24 2013 05:44 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Teufel overplaying his hand there. It's a bad enough idea to run on Bruce, but doing it with him playing shallow against the pitcher is sooey-side. Mets have two doubles and two singles this inning, but only one run.

Zvon Sep 24 2013 05:45 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Mike has sprung a Leake! Get him Muffy!

MURPHED. Nice at-bat.

Edgy MD Sep 24 2013 05:50 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Murphy puts it right in the usher's gut. Got out in a hurry, too.

haha! We knock him out in the 2nd. Impossible mission accomplished!

That Kaboom is so good that it regulates my bowel movements.

Edgy MD Sep 24 2013 05:56 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Shortest outing of Leake's [crossout:1s1nj4n0]Correa[/crossout:1s1nj4n0] [crossout:1s1nj4n0]Korea[/crossout:1s1nj4n0] career.

Edgy MD Sep 24 2013 06:01 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

By the way, this being the Reds, it is crucial to keep the heat on.

Zvon Sep 24 2013 06:02 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Niese better take this lead and find his cruise control on the mound. Fraziers doubles the start the 2nd. Come on Niese. Keep things in order. OOO, nice play by Tovar.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Sep 24 2013 06:03 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Call me unrealistic, but there's more than a little Rey-Rey there, isn't there?

Zvon Sep 24 2013 06:04 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Fraziers a Satin wannabe when it comes to running. But he scores. 4-1 Mets

Frayed Knot Sep 24 2013 06:04 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Judging by how this game has gone so far, I half expect to see the foreman from 'ON THE WATERFRONT' to come out and say: "OK, everybody [crossout]works[/crossout] hits today"

Edgy MD Sep 24 2013 06:04 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Duke and Niese got the same exact hit.

Edgy MD Sep 24 2013 06:06 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Choo is a bit thick in the frame, I think. And maybe a guy who'd be carrying extra weight by the back end of a long-term (or possibly a medium-term) contract.

Don't know about that but it was perfectly played, especially considering the deflection. Showed good range, movement and arm. Which is great cause I have no idea what this Tovar guy can do. Nice to see these youngsters up and playing.

Also got hisself seriously schooled by the younger CFer on how to throw to home. Lagares got rid of his faster and was considerably more accurate.

Zvon Sep 24 2013 06:11 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Laggy with the full swing bunt single to deep short.

Great interview with EYsr.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Sep 24 2013 06:18 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

That Shea baseball-decision bit gave me a little bit of nachus. Did we know that before?

Edgy MD Sep 24 2013 06:20 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

I give that and all future interviews with EY, Sr. a thumbs up.

Niese may have found his groove thang. Ks the side, two swinging, with a single in between. Votto called out. Ha.

Zvon Sep 24 2013 06:36 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Look at that. Murphy swats a single over short. Sweet hittin'.

Hey, I just thought of something. The Mets might win. I have not won an IGT this season, pretty sure. omg, I'm getting nervous. Like I was at that no hitter in Baltimore.

Zvon Sep 24 2013 07:01 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

wow. Laggy gets beat and Choo ends up at third. I want these two guys to get along cause they will be playing in the same outfield next season. But Choo beat you good Lagares.

Edgy MD Sep 24 2013 08:13 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

A doubleplay ends it. And there I was hoping to see Black nail down a four-strikeout inning.

Kong76 Sep 24 2013 08:13 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Congrats to Black

Black trumps the Reds and Dusty is feeling blue.

Zvon Sep 24 2013 08:15 PM Re: IGT:9/24:Metropolitans vs. Redstockings @ Cin./ Stop Lea

Back to Black! Good call Garr. Good game guys. First few innings in this one very exciting. I'm gonna miss baseball. Oh yea, and I win my first IGT this season! Woot!
