Do you have this on radio or something?

I can only seem to get this mlb.com feed after lurking & ripping the url off from another website, but here it is. If anyone can find this stuff manually, I'd love to know how:

Mine says 1-0, only run on a homer by Diaz.

Yeah, I hit refresh and they corrected it, gum it.

Maybe they crossed the Yankee game data with the Mets one. it's like one poor guy runs the shop during spring training.

Nice grab (as Sandy Martinez looks at three strikes from John Rauch).

Diaz's homer was to the opposite field, huh?

[url=http://mlb.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/team/player.jsp?player_id=118359]Sandy Martinez[/url] is the sort of journeyman catcher who always finds work in March. If he hustles his ass off he gets to this season's John Pachot, or Mike Difelice, or Joe DiPastino.

A single by Marlon Anderson before Aaron Heilman racks up his second and third strikeout and cruises through the second.

If you believe Gameday, it was six pitches, all swinging.

That HR by Diaz is still the only hit off Jon Rauchstar, who's whiffed 6 in 5 innings.

Heilman: 3 K, 3 H, 0 BB, 0 R thru 4.

1-0 Mets

Rauch is the first guy I've seen go five this sprint.

Juan Perez comes in for Aaron Heilman. Everybody on your feet and clap for Heilman.

And Tyrell Goodwin ties it with a homer to right center. Everybody on your feet and boo Juan Perez.

Joey Eischen rises from his slab to pitch for Washington.

Do you have a stake in this?

I would think a torch would be more effective than a stake when battling one of Frankenstein's monsters.

They don't like fire.

Sorry. Elvira flashback.

Now that I think of it, Edgy's "rising from the slab" could have been a great pun about the pitching rubber.

This game is tied up on an exchange of runs in the seventh. Todd Self doubled and went to third on a wild pitch. Chris Woodward was hit by a pitch, then, after a whiff by Sandy Martinez, he stole second, and Self stole home on the throwdown.

Not much from Keppinger or Matsui today. Keppinger walked after the doulbe steal, but that's it.

A Basak double and Martinez home run do nothing for me. Only 19 days.
