Did he catch it from Nady?

A 1-2-3 first inning for Glavine.

Mets swinging the bats like it's getaway day. First 5 go in order. Jamie Wright has thrown like 3 pitches.

Centerfield

Vizcaino goes deep to make it 1-0. Mets really looking flat here.

ScarletKnight41

Jose Freakin' Vizcaino homers to give the Giants a 1-0 lead in the third.

Chavez hits a dribbler for the first Mets hit of the game.

ScarletKnight41

YES! Reyes drives in Chavez to tie the game :)

ScarletKnight41
Jun 03 2006 08:24 PM

LoDuca follows that up by driving Reyes home! 2-1 Mets :)

Great to hear Howie on the TV, what's up with Gary though?

There was definitely a package of Swedish Fish on the shelf behind Willie Randolph in that dugout shot.

C'mon, I-Man. Read the whole thread. It's not even one page long.

I saw that but thought CF was taking the piss.

Gwreck
Jun 03 2006 08:36 PM

FWIW, a friend just called to discuss the games and they thought they said Laryngitis (rather than appendicitis) as the reason for Gary's absence.

I love that phrase. I wish I was from the UK.

AP story says "Mets broadcaster Gary Cohen left the ballpark in an ambulance before the first game and was taken to a hospital. The team was awaiting word on his condition."

Gwreck

Clearly somebody needs to work on those listening skills.

Thanks for the clarification/correction.

Could be a debilitating largyngitis.

Baseball content: Tommy's only surrendered 2 hits and a walk with 2 K's through 5.

Edit: I should never say things.

ScarletKnight41

2-2 in the 6th.

seawolf17
Jun 03 2006 09:05 PM

Damn you, Randy Winn.

edit: Side thought -- remember when the Pirates had Marvell Wynne and Jim Winn on the same team? That was weird. I also thought it was weird that they had a Winn and a Walk (Bob) on the same pitching staff.

Matsui, hitting crappy, but turned the DP when I needed it there.

ScarletKnight41

Glavine's night is done.

We go to the 8th tied 2-2.

Sounds like Madeline....



In the middle of the night, someone someone sat upright and said something is not right!

That sucks for Gary, get well soon, any word on who the Mets will call up to take his place, any numbers on the broadcasters in the minors, I hear the guy at Hagerstown is a prospect.

ScarletKnight41
Jun 03 2006 10:04 PM

And we go to the 10th.

Gwreck
Jun 03 2006 10:06 PM

This didn't work out so well for us the last time this happened. (ie. Bonds vs. Wagner)

Edgy DC
Jun 03 2006 10:24 PM

I'd love another last-at-bat win here. But some of thes wins should happen in the sixth.

Ray Durham walks with two out and Dickshot takes note.

Gwreck
Jun 03 2006 10:25 PM

LoDuca - Delgado - Wright coming up, we need to end it here.

Well, whaddya know? David Wright up with the winning run on 3rd....AGAIN....

ScarletKnight41
Jun 03 2006 10:31 PM

Runners on second and third. Nobody out.

Come on Mr. Wright!

Edgy DC
Jun 03 2006 10:31 PM

Lo Duca and Delgado have done their job.

Enter Wright.

ScarletKnight41
Jun 03 2006 10:32 PM

Wright is intentionally walked.

Get angry Cliffy!

Edgy DC
Jun 03 2006 10:32 PM

Not Wright. Not tonight. He gets walked.

Floydy Floyd...

Gwreck
Jun 03 2006 10:32 PM

Damn them and their strategy. Although some redemption for Cliff would be nice.

Milledge pinch running for LoDuca. Interesting.

Jun 03 2006 10:33 PM

If the Mets don't win this game in this inning, I'm going to kill something or somebody.

ScarletKnight41
Jun 03 2006 10:34 PM

Damn - a 23-year-old rookie pitcher whom we've never seen before.

We're screwed.

GYC
Jun 03 2006 10:39 PM

Sac fly by Woodward - Milledge is safe. Thank God.

Edgy DC
Jun 03 2006 10:40 PM

Good choice by Willie.

well it took almost 10 hours, but they got them in. No Sunday triple header

ScarletKnight41
Jun 03 2006 10:45 PM

That turned out to be a good move by Willie to pinch run Milledge for LoDuca. The gamble worked - there's no way LoDoca could have scored on that shallow fly.

metirish
Jun 03 2006 10:50 PM

Willie is a genius...nice to hear Howie on the TV again.

Centerfield
Jun 03 2006 10:59 PM

Another walkoff win. Yawn.

Didnt think they had a chance to get in both games.
I dont mind a split here-
lets take the series tomorrow!

Milledge looked silly for the majority of his game-winning run home. He was staring into the outfield almost the entire way. He didn't need to do that. He could've done his slide around the catcher (which was excellent, I'll admit) by seeing the catcher's positioning. I'm sure that looking back over your shoulder is going to slow you down. If he had been tagged out I'd be ranting.
