OlerudOwned Aug 22 2006 07:14 PM

Woodward butchers one nicely for the 1st out.

OlerudOwned Aug 22 2006 07:16 PM

Maine not messing around with Pujols, three pitches and sit your ass down. Balls of a burglar.

Yancy Street Gang Aug 22 2006 07:17 PM

I'm guessing that Maine's cap size is about a 6.

OlerudOwned Aug 22 2006 07:19 PM

You know what? I don't like Chris Duncan.

MFS62 Aug 22 2006 07:20 PM

I think this is a fine time for the fans at field level to remind Weaver that he's pitching in New York. (In case he didn't remember his performances with that other NY team) Later

OlerudOwned Aug 22 2006 07:30 PM

Slump? What slump? 1-0 on the Delgado shot.

ScarletKnight41 Aug 22 2006 07:30 PM

MFS62 Aug 22 2006 07:30 PM

Can someone please give Mr. Delgado a KABOOM? EDIT: Thank you. Later

metirish Aug 22 2006 07:46 PM

LoDuca the sleaze with a single.

MFS62 Aug 22 2006 08:08 PM

Prince Albert with a 3 run dinger. 3-1 Cards. Maine needs to call a vet. He has problems with his gopher. Later

SteveJRogers Aug 22 2006 08:13 PM

Here is an old stand by "I don't know why anyone pitches to him" One of the top laziest and lamest ways to look like you know something about baseball strategy

OlerudOwned Aug 22 2006 08:13 PM

Great play by Tucker/Reyes/LoDuca on the throwout.

metirish Aug 22 2006 08:17 PM

Bases loaded for Pujols.....and he clears the bases with a home run.

OlerudOwned Aug 22 2006 08:18 PM

Fiddlesticks

MFS62 Aug 22 2006 08:19 PM

Fukk, that guy is good. Later

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 08:19 PM

Carlos, it's your turn.

TransMonk Aug 22 2006 08:20 PM

Walks kill.

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 08:23 PM

Ledee attempts to kill a bit himself, leading off with a walk in what looks to be his last Met at-bat.

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 08:24 PM

Molina shows that legendary defense as the ball just goes through a hole in his mitt and he jogs after it.

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 08:26 PM

That underhand toss. What was that about?

metirish Aug 22 2006 08:32 PM

WOW....nice one Delgado for #400.

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 08:32 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Aug 22 2006 08:34 PM

Horly Cfraph!

ScarletKnight41 Aug 22 2006 08:33 PM

Pujols 7 - Delgado 5

OlerudOwned Aug 22 2006 08:34 PM

Yancy Street Gang Aug 22 2006 08:35 PM

Some of this for Carlos Delgado tonight, I'm sure.

Yancy Street Gang Aug 22 2006 08:39 PM

400th homer as a Met: Duke Snider, Eddie Murray. Not Mike Piazza. Dave Kingman? Anyone else?

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 08:58 PM

Keith sticking his foot in it again.

metirish Aug 22 2006 09:01 PM

]Keith sticking his foot in it again. Yeah no shit..."animals have rights?,what direction is this country going in?"

TransMonk Aug 22 2006 09:05 PM

I think he sticking his tongue in his cheek.

TransMonk Aug 22 2006 09:13 PM

Brad Chadford is my hero.

Frayed Knot Aug 22 2006 09:13 PM

I nominate Bradford for God.

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 09:14 PM

It'll raise a minor storm either way. Beer for Bradford.

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 09:15 PM

Raise your hand if you though going out and getting a freaking ROOGy was a silly micromanaging idea.

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 09:23 PM

Welcome back, Timo.

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 09:29 PM

Bill Clinton falling asleep in row one.

metirish Aug 22 2006 09:29 PM

Looper back at Shea....

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 09:30 PM

Welcome back, Braden.

ScarletKnight41 Aug 22 2006 09:33 PM

Keith is pleased that the Mets have brought back The Curly Shuffle. I'm just glad that they listened to my suggestion ;)

Frayed Knot Aug 22 2006 09:34 PM

So who's making the more obscure music reference? - Keith mentioning Archie Bell & the Drells (1960?) song Tighten Up whenever he refers to pressure situations? - or Ronnie bringing up Joni Mitchell's Coyote and it's 'Bay of Fundy' line when Keith & Gary were discussing "fundies" (fundamentals)? Coyote's in the coffee shop He's staring a hole in his scrambled eggs He picks up my scent on his fingers While he's watching the waitresses' legs He's too far from the Bay of Fundy From Appaloosas and Eagles and tides And the air conditioned cubicles And the carbon ribbon rides Are spelling it out so clear

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 09:36 PM

Bad call at home. Feliciano did not get the same plate Looper got.

TransMonk Aug 22 2006 09:38 PM

I said basically the same thing screaming at my screen: "Awww....bullshit!"

Zvon Aug 22 2006 09:45 PM

Okay Izzy---tonight Im asking you to fail for me (hes my fantasy closer).

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 09:46 PM

Welcome back, Izzy.

Zvon Aug 22 2006 09:47 PM

Izzy--if you save this one I WILL fine you!

metirish Aug 22 2006 09:47 PM

Sleazy LoDuca with a hit,one out one on for Beltran.....and he fucking does it..WOW

Frayed Knot Aug 22 2006 09:48 PM

WALK OFF HOME RUN !!!!

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 09:48 PM

Gotta pinch-run Milledge here.

Methead Aug 22 2006 09:48 PM

Now THAT'S a comeback!

metirish Aug 22 2006 09:49 PM

Bill Clinton looked pissed...

TransMonk Aug 22 2006 09:49 PM

I love this team.

ScarletKnight41 Aug 22 2006 09:49 PM

The other one! Beltran's 2-run sayonara wins it for the Mets. OMG!!!

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 09:49 PM

Fuck me. My team does rule.

OlerudOwned Aug 22 2006 09:50 PM

MVP! (Remind me not to google "Beltran" again}

metirish Aug 22 2006 09:50 PM

Trachsel looks very awkward celebrating......

Zvon Aug 22 2006 09:50 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Aug 22 2006 09:50 PM

Somewhere in Shea Stadium, Will Leitch hangs his head.

Edgy DC Aug 22 2006 10:56 PM

I dunno. Everyone's tender. Just speculating.

martin Aug 22 2006 11:43 PM

i went to the game, and not only was it exciting, but i saw prominent competitive eater "crazy-legs" conti in grand central terminal on the way home. it was a good night, a walkoff homer and a fantastic celebrity sighting.

Johnny Dickshot Aug 22 2006 11:55 PM

I didn't see any competitive eaters but a great game? Holy crap, yes. I was so worried I destroyed our Mojo by stepping on Lundy's KTE, but Lundy's KTE only provided the bigger and more dramatic win. wow. Was he safe at home? Bang-bang play that I forgot all about until I got home, but turned out huge! I suppose they spotted us a great play too: The catch on Reyes ' first inning drive was fantastic and prolly saved Weaver a 6-run inning, we figured. All 5 Home runs were majestic, no-doubters. Maine looked awesome the first time thru, and like they stole the signs the next. Guillermo Mota lit up the boards at 96, 86 on the changes, and the Cardinals didn't have much. And Bradford-- what can you say? He was lighting the gun at 66 and getting 4 of the game's biggest outs. Really thought it was over when Reyes was retired to lead off the 9th, credit to LoDuca for a big single following him. They flashed the Green trade news on the scorebaord in like the 6th inning, but it went down so quick I didn't even see it, and spent the rest of the night shouting and wondering from whom. I was relieved to see Milledge's jersey pop out of the dougout in the 9th, but I was later misled by a jagoff in a Cardinals hat waiting for the subway who said, "Victor Diaz and Heath Bell or Royce Ring." Turns out it was only MacLane, a slowball specialist whom me and marathon watched at Brooklyn a few years back. Fair deal, which I guess means Cliff may not return so quick or something. I like the Mets.

metirish Aug 23 2006 12:04 AM

Very cool Dickshot, had to have been a blast to see two sluggers slug it out then Beltran settle it.....btw Diaz was DFA.

Yancy Street Gang Aug 23 2006 06:22 AM

Them walkoff homers is fun. Especially when they instantly turn a deficit into a win.
