Keith is back in the booth so there is much banter going on between the three....

That has to be the ugliest lineup that the Mets have used all year...1/2/3/4 isn't bad, but 5/6/7/8/9 is awful....

9? Where did you want to bat Hernandez?

Nothing's ugly this last stretch, except someone needlessly getting hurt or
not getting enough AB's to keep 'em fresh.

I'm worried about Beltran.

Friday, low-level holiday, game means nothing ... Keith cracks me up.

Would it kill him to start sentences with, "I think" or "in my opinion"?

I think Keith is drunk or something...he's fucking hilarious tonight.

Did Ricky just hit a homer? It wasn't just a homer, it was crushed?

Yeah he crushed that ball..Delgado gets a free walk so the Nats can pitch to Wright..come on David......

Mets lose for the sixth time in the last eight games...but on a good note El Duque looked good and the A lineup was not playing....

Not even close.

I was surprised not by the paid attendance but by the actual attendance. Looked like 35-40 were actually in the park tonight, despite the holiday, weather (it was a bit chilly) and meaninglessness of the game.

Nice acknowledgement of Joan Hodges who was in the park tonight and turns 80 next week.

I would've liked to see LoDuca instead of Franco pinch-hitting, especially given that LoDuca was coming into the game if the Mets had tied it up...and that Julio hasn't been hitting for shit lately.

Maybe it was just my perspective but Zimmerman's hit though the left side wasn't really hustled after and I think we could've prevented that run from scoring on it.

Zim's hit was a real seeing-eye ugly shot. Delgado was holding his guy on, IIRC, otherwise he'd have had an easy play.

They say Dooka is hurt and Darling sounded a little confident when he "predicted" they won't go to the A lineup again till Tuesday.

What disappointed me was Wright weakly grounding out after they dissed him like that. In April or May that was a guaranteed shot off the wall.

Endy & the GR-double: Just the second ball that landed in the field of play behind him this year.

That makes it just that much more baffling, given that he hit for Stinnett. What would Willie have done if we tied it? Down 1, it's not far out of the realm of possibility.
