Does Wright really need a day off? He was just getting hot.

SteveJRogers Sep 24 2006 12:47 PM

I think since the clincher Willie has decided to pull a Billy Martin and just draw random lineups out of a hat!

KC Sep 24 2006 12:55 PM

Billy Martin is like the last manager that comes to mind when I think of Willie.

Edgy DC Sep 24 2006 12:59 PM

I think there's a small bit of Billy Martin in Willie Randolph. Maybe more than a small bit. Just not the raging sociopath bit.

KC wrote: Billy Martin is like the last manager that comes to mind when I think of Willie. Willie has said Billy and Joe are his major influences as a manager. What, no love for Danny Murtaugh? Lou Piniella? Clyde King? Gene Michael? Dick Hoswer? Bob Lemon? Tommy Lasorda? Jeff Torborg? Tony LaRussa? Tom Treblehorn?

Trax is in immediate trouble - runners on the corners, none out in the first.

ScarletKnight41 Sep 24 2006 01:18 PM

1-0 Nats on the sac fly.

KC Sep 24 2006 01:26 PM

Yeah, I was thinking personality traits re: Willie/Billy.

ScarletKnight41 Sep 24 2006 01:28 PM

Trax gets out of the first with only giving up one run. Not bad, all things considered.

Edgy DC Sep 24 2006 01:30 PM

Might as well get my daily whine in. Six straight.

ScarletKnight41 Sep 24 2006 01:35 PM

If this game gets rained out, there's no point in making it up. It's a truly meaningless game.

Edgy DC Sep 24 2006 01:35 PM

Reyes back in the steal business. Good throw, though. Cedeño tailed off at the end of his 66-steal season, also.

ScarletKnight41 Sep 24 2006 01:47 PM

Armas comes to the plate with the bases loaded and nobody out. He hits into a double play, with one run scoring. 2-0 Nats, runner on 3rd, two out.

ScarletKnight41 Sep 24 2006 01:48 PM

Trax makes a good fielding play to get Castro at first and end the inning. 2-0 in the middle of the second.

Edgy DC Sep 24 2006 02:14 PM

Ralph in the park, but not in the booth? Boo!

Edgy DC Sep 24 2006 02:24 PM

Very nice DP turnage by Jose Valentin as Ryan Church flips him over. Gary Cohen: "Valentin taken out by Church on Sunday." How long has he been waiting to use that?

Edgy DC Sep 24 2006 02:32 PM

Holy crap, Cliff Floyd gunned down trying for two. Waddaya thinking, ya big gimp?!

Is that the Mad Magazine "M"? Nicely done.

Zvon Sep 24 2006 03:23 PM

Come on guys,-Id like a win here. Oliver in for Trax.

Zvon Sep 24 2006 03:33 PM

That 1b ump really screwed the pootch there- he clearly called that grounder down the line foul and then changed his call in mid stride. Two more runs in for the Nats - 5-1. Watchin that sub commercial w/ Willie and Joe. Maybe Willie can manage--he [u:d6486e153e]cant[/u:d6486e153e] act.

Zvon Sep 24 2006 03:52 PM

Its pouring in Philly and the game will be delayed in the 7th with the Phightins up 9-5. Games official, but since they are playin the Fish they will try to get the rest of that game in. Dodgers play later this afternoon,1/2 game behind the Phils in the wild card race.

Zvon Sep 24 2006 04:02 PM

Humbers up in the pen. Someone here was packin lumber for Humber.....who was it? Crap--I cant believe this. The CW11 just got blacked out mid inning.

SteveJRogers Sep 24 2006 04:08 PM

That was Val I believe WELCOME A BOARD ICK! Met number 799

Zvon Sep 24 2006 04:13 PM

This really sucks. Only game I get to see all week and they black it out in the last few frames. And Humbers pitchin! What a rip.

SteveJRogers Sep 24 2006 04:17 PM

Not a bad inning of work. A little shakiness with Lopez, but the job was gotten done. Lets hope that was the first of many, many, many innings in a Met uniform!

Zvon Sep 24 2006 04:19 PM

Would be nice if the Mets scored 5 runs here and got him a win. Would be nice to see it happen. But Ill settle for hearing it go down. Or reading it..... im pissed

SteveJRogers Sep 24 2006 04:28 PM

The few, the...uhh maybe not so proud, the one inning Mets: Bob Gibson 7/25/1987 Manny Hernandez 9/16/1989 Bill Pecota Non Pitcher 9/26/1992 Kenny Greer 9/29/1993 Derek Bell Non Pitcher 8/22/2000 Desi Relaford Non Pitcher 5/17/2001 Todd Zeile Non Pitcher 7/26/2004 Philip Humber 9/24/2006 I find it interesting that all of the one-inning career appearances by Mets have all come within the last 20 years. Especially how pitching strapped the Mets were back in the pre-Gil/Rube years

metsmarathon Sep 24 2006 07:00 PM

how bad was that foul ball call, anyways? was the ball really foul, or did the ump just foul it up by not calling it fair all the way? i was getting concessions at the time...
