IGT 5/20/06, Mets (Pedro) vs. Yankees (Mussina)

Gwreck May 20 2006 01:16 AM

Alright, this worked well for game one, so this afternoon's rally song will keep our theme going...Let's Go METS! World turns black and white Pictures in an empty room Your love starts fallin' down Better change your tune We'll reach for the golden ring Reach for the sky Baby just spread your wings And get higher and higher Straight up we'll climb We'll get higher and higher Leave it all behind Run run run away Like a train runnin' off the track YOu got the truth being left behind It falls between the cracks Standing on broken dreams Never losing sight Well just spread your wings We'll get higher and higher Straight up we'll climb We'll get higher and higher Leave it all behind So baby dry your eyes Save all the tears you've cried Oh, that's what dreams are made of 'Cause we belong In a world that must be strong Well, that's what dreams are made of We'll get higher and higher Straight up we'll climb Higher and higher Leave it all behind We'll get higher and higher Who knows what we'll find So baby dry your eyes Save all the tears you've cried Oh, that's what dreams are made of Oh, baby we belong In a world that must be strong Well, that's what dreams are made of And in the end On dreams we will depend 'Cause thats what love is made of

Van Hagar instead of David Lee? I already don't feel good about this.

metirish May 20 2006 01:27 PM

Joe Buck is so annoying, Jeter on second.

Gwreck May 20 2006 01:31 PM

No matter, he gets steroids to pop up and gets slappy looking.

metirish May 20 2006 01:31 PM

Pedro seems to just have a great sence for the big moments, made Gay-Rod look foolish just now.

abogdan May 20 2006 01:31 PM

Pedro gets out of the jam. If you think Buck's bad, just wait until we have to sit through Joe Morgan tomorrow night.

metirish May 20 2006 01:32 PM

I think my main problem with Buck is that he thinks he's so funny, Morgan is just a fool that gets played by Miller.

Gwreck May 20 2006 01:36 PM

Damn! Another error on Rodriguez. How sad.

metirish May 20 2006 01:37 PM

Reyes to 3rd after stealing 2nd and a wild throw by Stinnett..

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 01:38 PM

Reyes says, "Speed Kills."

ScarletKnight41 May 20 2006 01:40 PM

An RBI double for Beltran makes it 1-0 good guys!

abogdan May 20 2006 01:40 PM

Beltran listens to the "hit it to LF" advice. Cairo can't play LF as Beltran drives in Reyes and ends up at 2B. 1-0.

metirish May 20 2006 01:40 PM

Beltran brings him home with a double over Cairo....I think Beltran has won the fans over....finally.

ScarletKnight41 May 20 2006 01:44 PM

Just like his last at bat, Wright hits a catchable long fly over Damon's head for an RBI double! 2-0 good guys!

TheOldMole May 20 2006 01:44 PM

Just like last night!

Zvon May 20 2006 01:44 PM

HA! Damon fall down-go boom.

TheOldMole May 20 2006 01:45 PM

If Beltran isn't a fan favorite by now, there's no hope.

Bret Sabermetric May 20 2006 01:46 PM

Which reminds me: Does Wright get credited with a double in last night's game? Picture-perfect demonstration that he could have made second easily--so how does that get scored when it's a game winner? Like Ventura's grand-slam single?

ScarletKnight41 May 20 2006 01:48 PM

It's a single. And he's happy to have it.

TransMonk May 20 2006 01:48 PM

It was a single...he never made it to second...just like '99.

Gwreck May 20 2006 01:48 PM

Wright was credited with a single last night.

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 01:55 PM

Pedro mows down the Yankees in the second. Mets 2 Yankees 0 heading to the bottom of the second.

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 02:01 PM

Mets go down quietly in the second.

Zvon May 20 2006 02:08 PM

Pierzynski goes down loudly in Chicago. WOW! Barrett really popped him one.

Bret Sabermetric May 20 2006 02:08 PM

Fox just played a home-plate collision--A.J. Pierzynski barrelled into Michael Barrett, Barrett threw a punch--and BOTH of them got thrown out?!?!? WTF? That was as clean an attempt to knock the ball out of Barrett's hand as I (Or McCarver) could imagine.

ScarletKnight41 May 20 2006 02:12 PM

Captain Intangibles strikes out to end the top of the third.

That was as clean an attempt to knock the ball out of Barrett's hand as I (Or McCarver) could imagine. Guess we'll have to wait to see the whole event. It looked innocent enough until the second time they bumped. I was still quite surprized by that punch. He laid into him. Pedro Ks that shortstop guy on that "other" New York team. :)

Gwreck May 20 2006 02:30 PM

Pedro works around a single by slappy. I wish his pitch count was a little lower, though -- 68 through 4 innings.

Zvon May 20 2006 02:32 PM

DELGADO!

OlerudOwned May 20 2006 02:32 PM

Carlos Delgado flicks it out. 3-0 Good guys.

Gwreck May 20 2006 02:33 PM

Delgado!

ScarletKnight41 May 20 2006 02:33 PM

Delgado Ka-Booms to straightaway center to make it 3-0 good guys -

KC May 20 2006 02:38 PM

The kabooms here have really gone hi-tech. Sadly, I don't get to whip out bang-pow very often so far this season. Hey, did McCarver actually say the Mets acquired Keith Hernandez in '63 or did I miss something before?

Zvon May 20 2006 02:40 PM

KC wrote: Hey, did McCarver actually say the Mets acquired Keith Hernandez in '63 or did I miss something before? yea he did---"back in '63" lol

Zvon May 20 2006 02:44 PM

Okay-Floyd makes up for his 1st inning boo-boo with that nice grab. Pedro with 7 Ks thru 5.

ScarletKnight41 May 20 2006 02:57 PM

3-0 good guys after the top of the 6th. Why is Fox playing Backstreet Boys music?

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 03:00 PM

We need more runs. Let's Go Mets!

KC May 20 2006 03:04 PM

Through six, up 3-sniffle -- we need more runs.

KC May 20 2006 03:04 PM

Alright, so I'm a little slow ...

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 03:04 PM

No insurance runs as the heart of the order go down 1-2-3. Through 6 innings, Mets still lead the Yankees 3-0.

TheOldMole May 20 2006 03:08 PM

Mets do better on rundowns than the Yanks.

TheOldMole May 20 2006 03:13 PM

Pedro! Pedro! Pedro!

Gwreck May 20 2006 03:16 PM

Alright Pedro. Time for the bullpen.

Zvon May 20 2006 03:17 PM

CLIFFY!

The Yankees were so close to scoring that inning, but Pedro slams the door shut with a fastball low and away to ring up Stinnent with runners teammates on second and third. Some one cue KC for his Bang-Pow!

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 03:20 PM

Nothing like a home run to bring the IGT to life. KC was on the spot for Cliff.

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 03:23 PM

Franco becomes the oldest player in MLB history to double against the Yankees. Go Pops!

TheOldMole May 20 2006 03:24 PM

Wouldn't it be neat if Julio could play to 50?

Johnny Dickshot May 20 2006 03:24 PM

Let's hope Duaner earns my love back.

Zvon May 20 2006 03:25 PM

Pedros done for the day. Great performance. Watching him pitch is like watching an artist paint.

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 03:25 PM

Don't be fickle JD.

Kaz starts DP! Nice work at second base.

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 03:30 PM

After a single to lead off the inning, Damon grounds into a double play.

GYC May 20 2006 03:30 PM

Duaner is awesome.

dinosaur jesus May 20 2006 03:31 PM

Does anyone know how many DP's he's induced this year? It seems like a hell of a lot.

Gwreck May 20 2006 03:31 PM

If Duaner fell out favor with JD I'm sure there are plenty of other suitors waiting in line...

KC May 20 2006 03:33 PM

Who was is that called him 'donner suckchex' or something like that?

Zvon May 20 2006 03:36 PM

errors tend to kill. 4 for the Skanks.

Zvon May 20 2006 03:38 PM

thats heads up Kaz. Tags on the fly to left. Nice.

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 03:39 PM

All we need is a single to score Matsui. Come on Delgado.

The Big O May 20 2006 03:41 PM

"I-B-B! I-B-B!"

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 03:41 PM

Yeah, that worked out real well for them last night. Make them pay Cliff.

Zvon May 20 2006 03:45 PM

Yanks have been out of it ever since Damon fall down and go boom early on.

Zvon May 20 2006 03:45 PM

Edgy DC May 20 2006 03:46 PM

McCarver, off his face, is re-raising the "Sandman issue," and inaccurately, I might add.

TheOldMole May 20 2006 03:46 PM

Tim gets it wrong! Plagiarism by Wagner on entrance music? He used it before Mariano.

Edgy DC May 20 2006 03:48 PM

Um, Billy. Throw strikes.

TheOldMole May 20 2006 03:49 PM

Billy has other problems than plagiarism.

Gwreck May 20 2006 03:50 PM

...and there goes the shutout. FUCK.

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 03:52 PM

Giambi singles to center and Pay-Rod draws a walk. I thought Wagner had him on the 2-2 pitch, but Blue didn't see it that way. Need to work out of a little jam. Don't make it too exciting. Damn, Cano singles to drive in Giambi with the first run. Still no outs.

Gwreck May 20 2006 03:56 PM

Shit, Billy. WTF?

TheOldMole May 20 2006 03:56 PM

I hate this. Well, at least it's Kelly Stinnett.

TheOldMole May 20 2006 03:57 PM

Billy can't throw a strike.

TheOldMole May 20 2006 03:58 PM

This can't get worse.

Nymr83 May 20 2006 03:59 PM

i'd bring Bradford on NOW its obvious Wagner cant find the plate today

Edgy DC May 20 2006 03:59 PM

Go Get Him

TheOldMole May 20 2006 03:59 PM

Yes, it can. Pops Bernie with the first pitch. Now their tough hitters coming up.

Nymr83 May 20 2006 04:00 PM

and he hits the guy?? Feliciano will face DAmon FUCK, i'd have much rather brought Bradford on earlier

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 04:00 PM

Unbelievable. Wagner has such electric stuff, but it doesn't do any good if you can't throw it over the plate. Time to put an end to this game. We need a GIDP to end it right here.

KC May 20 2006 04:02 PM

We'll see what happens, but why was Wags brought in today anyway? He pitched yesterday, they got other guys, it wasn't a save situation? I'm not second guessing, I wasn't even watching ... but it seems kinda odd.

holychicken May 20 2006 04:02 PM

Any idiot could see that Wagner should NOT have been facing Williams. WTF?!?!?!?!

TheOldMole May 20 2006 04:03 PM

So close, and yet so far. That ball was hit so slowly, they were lucky to make it even that close. Tie ball game. Nice pitch by Feliciano.

Nymr83 May 20 2006 04:04 PM

fuck. got 1 but inches from 2 and now it's tied, Bradford vs. Jeter... i don't like this one bit

The Big O May 20 2006 04:05 PM

Anyone else think it seemed like a slow turn / slight double-clutch from Kaz?

Willets Point May 20 2006 04:07 PM

This might make me weep.

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 04:08 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on May 20 2006 04:09 PM

This is a perfect example of the over specialization of bullpens in modern baseball. Sanchez was going well and should have started (and hopefully finished) the ninth, but not in today's era. Now the roles are laid out in advance. Set up man pitches the eighth then you go to your closer. Seems no one is willing to deviate from the formulaic approach. Come on Bradford. End this inning so we can score in the bottom of the ninth and break their hearts again.

Edgy DC May 20 2006 04:08 PM

Willie, I secondguess thee.

TheOldMole May 20 2006 04:09 PM

Jeter waves at a 65-MPH pitch, and then Bradford gets him. Let's go for another walk-off 9th, guys.

Batty31 May 20 2006 04:10 PM

I'm not watching or listening...who do we have coming up at the bottom of the 9th?

Gwreck May 20 2006 04:10 PM

Alright, no big deal, we can beat Rivera. RALLY TIME!!!

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 04:11 PM

I don't think Reyes or Jeter did anything wrong on Damon's ground ball to short. It wasn't hit hard enough to turn two with Damon running.

TransMonk May 20 2006 04:11 PM

Stupid...with a 4 run lead you leave your closer who saved a game last night in the pen. Trot Julio or Feliciano out there. Now it's going to take 6 pitchers to win this game after Pedro pitched a shutout through 7 innings.

Rockin' Doc May 20 2006 04:12 PM

Nady, Castro, and a pinch hitter due up.

metsmarathon May 20 2006 04:12 PM

at least we know this wasn't a big game. if it was, you'd hafta think captain intagibles would've won it right therre, instead of bouncing out to matsui...

Its easy to say now, and I didnt want to throw any jinx out there earlier, but bringin in Wags was a mistake. I know Willie must be thinkin lets take these 1st 2 and relax tomorrow- But we showed Wags off last night, he was flashy,and he just wasnt needed at that point today. Well-at least you cant say they slapped Wagner around. That was all lack of control. Im just soooo bummed Pedro gets no win here.

A Jack Reed moment. Jack Reed: http://www.thebaseballcube.com/players/R/jack-reed.shtml A Yankee scrub. His only major league homer won an extra inning game for the Yankees against the Tigers. IIRC, that was a game in which Jim Bouton went seven innings in relief and showed the Yankees he should be a starter. Later

What a dispiriting game. Wagner should have been pulled about two hitters sooner. And what's with letting Cairo prance around the bases as much as he wants? Did anyone ever hear of holding on a runner in a tight game?

Willets Point May 20 2006 05:04 PM

The lesson learned: never get your hopes up. The Yankees will always be better.

old original jb May 20 2006 05:11 PM

Willets Point wrote: The lesson learned: never get your hopes up. The Yankees will always be better. That's kind of how they played the last few innings. Randolph acted as though it would be a challenge to the fates to stop the Yankees' rally by pulling out Wagner or an affront to the baseball gods to try to keep Cairo from advancing.

Zvon May 20 2006 05:19 PM

Ya know--if Wagner gets em 1-2-3 in the 9th Willie does good. Shuts the door- preserves Pedros win. Willie looks wonderful. But Billy didnt. If he was inserted to get out the meat of the lineup-he didnt. Go out, slap him on the back and say nice try. And pull him there. At that point Willie froze like a deer in the headlights and let Wags hang in the breeze. I do not understand this. I can see the logic in bringing Wags in, tho I may not agree with it. But why do you leave him there the way he was throwing? How many freakin pitches did he throw? 30? He did his job last night in style, which, BTW, is to [u:002a5d771e]save[/u:002a5d771e] games. Here his job was to get the meat of the order out--he didnt do his job. You dont lose any face by pulling him after the walk to Cabrera loads the bases. If not there, then definatly after he hit Bernie. Im just flabergasted by the ninth. That was so ugly.

old original jb May 20 2006 05:27 PM

One of the ugliest innings I've ever seen. And it wasn't the meat of the order. It started with the bottom of the order. And I still want to know why Miguel Cairo is given a free pass around the bases. This looked like one of those Harlem Globetrotters games, and the Mets were the Washington Generals.

cleonjones11 May 20 2006 07:28 PM

I nominate this game for "Worst Loss of the Year." Reminiscent of Looper in Pittsburgh last year only worse cuz its the MFY's at home. I don't want to see the game that could beat it for worst lost.

DocTee May 20 2006 09:38 PM

Absolutely. And I thought last Sunday's defeat was bad! This takes the cake-- Lets see what we're made of and if we can bounce back tomorrow like the MFY did today.

Bret Sabermetric May 20 2006 09:52 PM

Willets Point wrote: I nominate this game for "Worst Lost of the Year." . Yup. What makes it even worse for me was that I lost my biggest I-told-you-so ever--I DVDed the game and practically coughed up my liver bitching when when WWSB took out Sanchez and put in Wagner. Wasn't concerned so much that Wagner would blow it as much as Wagner worked last night and could be needed tomorrow, while Sanchez looked terrific. I was all WTF is he doing,? and I'm still all WTF. For me this just happened 15 minutes ago, and I'm still red in the face. I don't blame Wagner at all--this is ALL on WWSB.

Rotblatt May 20 2006 09:55 PM

bleh. This game sucked. I'd much rather have been watching it on tv than have some yankee fuck smirk over his shoulder at me every time Rivera struck out another over-anxious Met. The first 8 innings were pretty fucking sweet, though. Sanchez should've pitched the 9th. Willie should've pulled Wagner after he walked the bases full. From where I sat (fairly far away), Matsui should've gotten rid of the ball faster. Castro should've tried to stop Cairo from running wild. Ultimately, I blame Wagner, but we all knew Wags didn't have it way before Willie did. Shades of Petey 2003. If this had been the game that ended our playoff hopes, Willie would be gone. U-G-L-Y. We'd better fucking win tomorrow.

DocTee May 20 2006 10:52 PM

FWIW: 3 of the Mets last 4 losses have been by one run.

Zvon May 21 2006 01:07 AM

This picture says it all. Wags should never have been in a position to get so flustered. It was tough to watch. This is just one game, and one we could afford to let get away - at this time anyway. Phils got beat by the boSox and the Braves were tramuatized by Arizona. The team will bounce back. Tonight would be nice. Get Wags back out there ASAP, in a save situation. Tonight? Id like to see that, but i think he threw too many pitches in that dibolical. So---we kick azz 2nite- Off day Monday- Then bring on the Phils- and thats much more important.

Zvon May 21 2006 01:13 AM

And you were right Bret- Pierzynski had no business being tossed. Where the hell do they get these umps that dont know what they are doin?

I'm still waiting to learn what Pierzynski did that warranted ejection. Make contact with the catcher blocking the plate? Hit Barrett in the fist with his chin? It was a bang-bang play--runner and ball arriving simultaneously--and you got to expect to get banged up if you're Barrett. if you don't want the bang-bang play, do a Piazza and take a step or two forward and reach back to swipe Piersynski with the ball, but you can't stand there in the basepath without the ball and complain afterwards that you got banged into. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/05/21/sports/baseball/21cubs.html

I've just now (time is 8:41pm) come up for air. Haven't listened to the radio, read a paper or gone on line since that-what-must-not-be spoken-of happened yesterday. I'm thinking that it is THE worst loss in my years of being a Mets fan. A perfect storm of a loss. I'm still shell shocked. Don't even know what's going on with the game right now and won't know until tomorrow mornong. Billy Wagner has ruined my life.

="soupcan"] I'm thinking that it is THE worst loss in my years of being a Mets fan. quote] Me, too. I couldn;t stop thinking about it, all night and all day--and all I wanted was for the Yankees to lose to Pedro. I can't imagine what it was like for you guiys who care if the Mets win or lose. It was a killer, a gut-cruncher, a monster, a bitch, a hell of a loss. I feel for you, Soupy, I really do. cooby May 21 2006 09:27 PM That's too bad because you're missing a good one tonight soupcan May 22 2006 09:13 AM Okay. I'm a little better now. I was watching the Sopranos last night and decided to check the score. Tuned in just in time to see Wright let Jetah's grounder go under his glove and score two runs. Great timing. I watched the rest of Sopranos without turning back to the game. Finally I tuned in again just when Wagner came in. WHY WHY WHY WHY can't the Mets ever have a closer that just comes in and shuts the damn door?! I'm cool with the Subway Series. 2 of 3. Won a game we shouldn't have, lost a game we shouldn't have, we beat their closer, they beat our closer. A-Rod looked like a fool. Let the healing begin.
