We'll be there up in 509, I know some others might too. Expect to do at least a little wondering.

Need Gee and the offense to come a little bigger than usual.

Terry is awfully committed to Curty pants in the two hole and NOT batting Duda cleanup. Mystifying.

Re: Marlins @ Mets 4/27 igt

Some hitting would be a nice change of pace.
They flashed up a stat last night saying how it had been like a zillion games in a row they've lost at home when they give up 5 or more runs.
IOW: pitch poorly and we lose; pitch well and we sometimes lose.
Been a long time since we've won a slugfest, or even a semi-slugfest, in Queens.

Say what you will about Murph, but sometimes it's nice to have a thirdbaseman's arm over at second.

That looked like it rolled around in his bare hand til he grasped it. I think maybe we should put him out there w/o a glove. Muffs a bare knuckles old timey player.

You guys see the clip of Braun hitting the guy w/the bat? OUCH! That was worse than I thought it would be. How could anyone stand at the traffic center of the dugout and swing a bat like that?

I was at that game when Randolf hit the opposite field homer. All my brothers and I came to town for that game. Good box seats too, field level, across from 3rd. When Willie hit that homer Shea went as silent as I've ever heard her.

Great pitching by Gee.
Great game called by Recker.
Great defense from Wright.
Great homer from Young.

That was a pretty nice home-stand considering how woeful the offense has been so far this year.

Great win. Incredibly cold in the shade and not as though I wasn't dressed warm. Young home run was terrific; he must have fouled off a half dozen before it. Happened to notice the brand of urinals shared a name with today's opponent; it was great to piss all over KOHLER

Re: Marlins @ Mets 4/27 igt

* Nats lost today (split 4 this weekend w/the Padres) so we gain back the game we lost to them on Saturday and re-leap-frog them back into 2nd

* Braves win 1-0 in the 10th on a Freddie F Freeman walk-off double (turns out he doesn't just do it to us) so we remain 3.5 back

* Phillies still phightin' it out in the Valley of the Sun, so their gap behind us either remains one game or jumps to two depending on that outcome as we prepare for the two-game head to head starting Tuesday

* the weekend dropped the Marlins 3 back of us




Good weekend overall; could have been better but also could have been worse.

14-11 is OK, although a bit more than OK when you remember that it's off an 0-3 start. 14-8 is a nice 22-game run, especially when six of those were vs Atlanta and there was a west-coast trip thrown in

You can see the intrigue in Chris Young even if he's destined to be frustrating at times

JCL/LWFS peepee-fun similarity score: 100%

We had seats in the lower Promenade behind home, but actually moved to the P-Outfield decks for sun worship/wind protection; worked like a charm, it did. Layers helped, too-- we were better equipped than we have been the last couple of Aprils.
