Delgado knocks in the Mets 100th first inning run of the season scoring Reyes. Beltran got up with two men on and had a chance for his 100th rbi if he hit a dinger. 100's all around.

Milledge goes 1st to 3rd on a Pedro bunt. He was running on the play and just never stopped and beat erd baseman Blum back to the bag. Nice hustle play but it was kinda close and that's one of those 'yabettermakeit' plays - esp since there were two out at the time. He came in on Reyes's 1B which may not have scored him from 2nd.

Guy Conti rocks. He gives good interview.

Sportsline has: Martinez sacrificed to catcher, Milledge to third. So I figured they were screwing up again- but they got it right. Thnks for the details.

The Mets are abusing Piazza with the stolen base, Valentin steals second after bringing Wright home for a 3 to 0 lead.

Piazza homers to make it 4-1, the crowd gives him a curtain call!

metirish Aug 09 2006 08:17 PM

Pizza with a home runa nd the fans go wild and demand a curtain call...Pizza takes a bow....WOW...I have never seen that.

That does deserve a

Awww, for old times sakes

Zvon Aug 09 2006 08:28 PM

I think Pedro intentionally spotted him that homer out of respect. (SC= ahh--50ish)

KC Aug 09 2006 08:30 PM

mi: >>I have never seen that<<< Doubt we will again. NIce inconsequential opposite field home run - it's like they're following the script to a tee.

metirish Aug 09 2006 08:48 PM

Piazza with a monster hone run into the picnic area.....

Nymr83 Aug 09 2006 08:48 PM

another homer for Piazza!

OK, Piazza owns Pedro like he owned Clemens. If we face the Padres again in October, we need to keep that in mind.

Pedro isn't as pyschotic as Roid-ger but he can send messages, hell he SENT a message to Mikey all the way back in 1998! [url]http://www.ultimatemets.com/gamedetail.php?gameno=5796[/url]

Ricky Ledee on deck to hit for Pedro...

metirish Aug 09 2006 09:20 PM

Lastings strikes out and hears some boos, Pedro back to the mound.

KC Aug 09 2006 09:26 PM

Eeeire how SNY zoomed in 100 (Pedro's pitch count)

KC Aug 09 2006 09:32 PM

So, we're in the 8th and two men on (Martinez walked two, and he's pulled) and Piazza is up looking for number 3.

smg58 Aug 09 2006 09:34 PM

Thankfully, Piazza just barely missed a third homer that would have put the Padres ahead. I'd rather bring in a lefty (like Wagner for a 4-out save) than walk the go-ahead run on base here.

smg58 Aug 09 2006 09:36 PM

Moot point. Walker pops up, side retired.

SteveJRogers Aug 09 2006 09:46 PM

Come on Wags, 2 outs, no post HR jitters like this guy The fellow who replaced you in Houston

SteveJRogers Aug 09 2006 09:49 PM

Come on, I don't want to see an ex-Met up!

So a great night all round, Mets win and Piazza hits two and gets booed, perfect really.

metirish Aug 09 2006 10:30 PM

Pedro giving Piazza lots of respect in the post-game interview....very cool.

metirish Aug 09 2006 11:01 PM

From the AP..... ] Martinez stepped off the mound and tipped his hat when Piazza first came to bat. Piazza responded with a similar gesture of respect -- remember, they weren't so friendly a few years ago when Martinez nailed him with a pitch while playing for Boston.

What [url=http://faithandfear.blogharbor.com/blog/_archives/2006/8/9/2216390.html]Jason[/url] said. I was really torn when he was at the plate against Heilman. That swing, that look in his eyes... I really thought it was gone, and I was really torn. In the end, though... Mets win and Piazza homers twice!! I'm totally down with that.

ScarletKnight41 Aug 10 2006 09:02 AM

As much as I like Mikey, I didn't want that ball to go out. All's well that ends well, IMO.
