Having both Milledge and Soler to check out is very exciting!

metirish May 30 2006 07:24 PM

2 zip Snakes, I blame Milledge.

KC May 30 2006 07:26 PM

2B ump (I'm not gonna butcher his last name) needs to see the replay of that twenty times as penance for that out call on the attempted steal and give us one back tonight or tomorrow.

Hillbilly May 30 2006 07:27 PM

Soler is getting squeezed too.

Zvon May 30 2006 07:27 PM

Another tuff 1st inning for Soler. 2 walks 2 runs a WP Some deep outs. Over 30 pitches. Might be gettin squeezed a lil and that call at second didnt help, but Soler aint helpin himself either.

OlerudOwned May 30 2006 07:28 PM

Bah. 2 runs and a lot of pitches in the 1st. Soler needs to find the strike zone. Get 'em back, boys.

Zvon May 30 2006 07:30 PM

Reyes with the lead off bunt single--ya gotta like that :)

Zvon May 30 2006 07:32 PM

Get into scoring position for the Carloses Jose.

Zvon May 30 2006 07:35 PM

Thank you Mr Reyes. 20th stolen base. And Beltran draws the walk. Would be nice if Delgado snapped out of his funk here.

Hillbilly May 30 2006 07:39 PM

Nothing doing as Wright lines out deep.

Zvon May 30 2006 07:39 PM

He dont. And Wright almost gets a hold a one, but, he dont. Lets hope Soler settles down cuz you have to figure we are gonna score 2 runs.

Yancy Street Gang May 30 2006 07:39 PM

Hillbilly May 30 2006 07:43 PM

Our new 2nd baseman butterfingers it to give Soler more to deal with.

Hillbilly May 30 2006 07:46 PM

Nice inning for the big right hander.

metirish May 30 2006 07:47 PM

keith thinks Soler is a perfectionist, says he needs to tone it down a bit...good advice I think.

Hillbilly May 30 2006 07:49 PM

Hillbilly May 30 2006 07:52 PM

Our new big stick 2nd baseman puts two on for the rook!

metirish May 30 2006 07:53 PM

Milledge had a fine AB, hit a rocket to 2nd, Floyd scores...2 to 1 Snakes.

holychicken May 30 2006 07:54 PM

Yeah, too bad that didn't find a hole.

Hillbilly May 30 2006 07:55 PM

The kid almost knocks Counsell on his ass. Soler's bunt results in an error and a run, but Jose GiDP to end the threat.

Gwreck May 30 2006 07:55 PM

I believe Alay Soler got his first major league hit on that scoring decision.

Zvon May 30 2006 07:56 PM

Hillbilly wrote: Our new big stick 2nd baseman puts two on for the rook! lol. He hit it hard, but no cigar. Good thing no DP. Batista and Tracy screw up and we get a run. And Reyes hits --a DP!? Awwwww Damn- last thing iI would have expected. We get one back. 1-2

Fielder's Choice, allowing Soler to reach by trying for Floyd at third. Throwing Error on Tracy, allowing Valentin to 3rd and Floyd to score.

Hillbilly May 30 2006 08:04 PM

Nice! Soler gets out of it after the defense does all it can to give it away. 2,3 &4 due up for the good guys.

Hillbilly May 30 2006 08:07 PM

Beltran is good. Boooooooo!

MFS62 May 30 2006 08:10 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on May 30 2006 08:12 PM

The in-game box at Yahoo.com is still showing Soler with a hit. Edit: They just changed it. Later

Hillbilly May 30 2006 08:11 PM

Delgado and Wright fail to bring 'em home again. Lets keep it close Soler.

Hillbilly May 30 2006 08:21 PM

3 to 1 is still close. Cliff with lead off double.

Zvon May 30 2006 08:23 PM

Come on Lastings--be big-

Hillbilly May 30 2006 08:29 PM

Nice at bat by Soler. He seems to be able to handle the bat.

Zvon May 30 2006 08:30 PM

We left a guy on 3rd base in the first, a guy on 3rd base in the second, a guy on 3rd base in the third, and a guy on 2nd base in the fourth. And the last was a lead off double. Not good.

Zvon May 30 2006 08:32 PM

UGH. Burns burns us again.

Yancy Street Gang May 30 2006 08:33 PM

Gary Cohen tells us: May 6, 1983: Darryl Strawberry, age 21 years, 55 days, makes his big league debut. Today, Lastings Milledge is 21 years and 55 days old.

Hillbilly May 30 2006 08:34 PM

I think Eric Byrnes should be made to feel quite uncomfortable with a high and tight fastball during his next AB.

Zvon May 30 2006 08:34 PM

="Yancy Street Gang"]Gary Cohen tells us: May 6, 1983: Darryl Strawberry, age 21 years, 55 days, makes his big league debut. Today, Lastings Milledge is 21 years and 55 days old. I like that lil factoid :)

ScarletKnight41 May 30 2006 08:34 PM

Eric Byrnes sure likes hitting at Shea :(

Gwreck May 30 2006 08:37 PM

Noooooooooooooo. This is not good.

Zvon May 30 2006 08:37 PM

UGH.UGH.UGH. So does Conner Jackson. A freakin 3 run blast.

Hillbilly May 30 2006 08:37 PM

Yuk 7-1. Soler has lost it.

Zvon May 30 2006 08:39 PM

I guess Willie will keep Soler out there until he's totally out of confidence.

Hillbilly May 30 2006 08:41 PM

Or trying to build it up. I'm not quite sure what he's doing??

Hillbilly May 30 2006 08:42 PM

What's with the booing meatheads? God that's really getting out of hand at Shea.

Zvon May 30 2006 08:43 PM

Hillbilly wrote: Or trying to build it up. I'm not quite sure what he's doing?? Well, he got out of it with no further damage.

Gwreck May 30 2006 08:45 PM

5 IP, 7 ER, 8 H, 1 K, 3 BB, 2 WP is a pretty ugly line.

Zvon May 30 2006 08:51 PM

It dont help that the Mets just dont seem on the ball tonight. Willie brings in Oliver to start this inning.

Willets Point May 30 2006 08:56 PM

Breakin'!

Hillbilly May 30 2006 08:57 PM

Oliver gets that pain in the ass Byrnes out.

Zvon May 30 2006 08:57 PM

Nice inning by Oliver. Okay--we can come back. But we gotta start it now. Load those bases for Milledge!

Zvon May 30 2006 09:04 PM

We leave another lead off double at second. Have i said UGH recently?

Gwreck May 30 2006 09:05 PM

2 leadoff doubles -- neither run scores. 2 more runners at 2nd with 1 out (Double, Reyes single/steal) and they don't score either. Against Brandon Webb...ok, whatever. Against Miguel Batista? Not cool.

Zvon May 30 2006 09:07 PM

........., and now Im Mike Stanton. This has just been a horrible night.

Zvon May 30 2006 09:09 PM

HEY!--now Im Josias Manzanillo. That went quick. Things are lookin up already :)

Hillbilly May 30 2006 09:10 PM

Ok make some noise now or early night for me.

Zvon May 30 2006 09:11 PM

Well, it would be nice if Mr Milledge gave us a lil something to be happy about......anything. A walk even. From his 1st major league at bat:

seawolf17 May 30 2006 09:12 PM

That's some enormous bling around his neck.

Edgy DC May 30 2006 09:13 PM Edited 2 time(s), most recently on May 30 2006 09:38 PM

Wilkommen to der show, kind.

Zvon May 30 2006 09:13 PM

a stand up double!

ScarletKnight41 May 30 2006 09:14 PM

MK points out that Milledge got his first Major League hit much quicker than Anderson Hernandez did.

Hillbilly May 30 2006 09:17 PM

Milledge gets his first ML hit, but his lead-off double is wasted like the rest tonight.

Willets Point May 30 2006 09:19 PM

Mike's Dad is a dick. Old people remember: Don't be like Mike's dad.

Nymr83 May 30 2006 09:34 PM

oh well, can't win them all, glad i couldnt make it tonight as i'm still 6-1 this year. Soler will get em next time!

Zvon May 30 2006 09:34 PM

One a those games-- so far everything is going Arizonas way. Nice catch off Wright. Lasting Milledge's 1st MLB hit:

DocTee May 30 2006 09:40 PM

]HEY!--now Im Josias Manzanillo. That went quick. Things are lookin up already :) You must really hate Mike Stanton to prefer being a guy who lost a testicle to a line drive. ouch

ScarletKnight41 May 30 2006 09:42 PM

Valentin's solo homer makes it 7-2 Arizona.

Edgy DC May 30 2006 09:42 PM

That's it, Jose. Let's chase this chump. Retain some dignity.

Zvon May 30 2006 09:43 PM

I do hat Stanton that much. :)

ScarletKnight41 May 30 2006 09:46 PM

I don't hat Stanton. I hate Stanton. A lot!

Zvon May 30 2006 09:47 PM

Well, that was fugly. But we aint gonna win em all.

Zvon May 30 2006 09:52 PM

The Pin That Popped The BalloonTM: The Conner Homer

Frayed Knot May 30 2006 10:11 PM

"MK points out that Milledge got his first Major League hit much quicker than Anderson Hernandez did." Not only that but I believe LM's one hit traveled further than AH's 6 or 7 ML hits did put together. Also: - Those first inning runs should be unearned and charged to the account of 2nd base ump Bruce Froemming - Eric Byrnes eats worms
