IGT 09/28, Mets at Braves

KC Sep 28 2006 06:34 PM

Bad form to start an IGT after starting one for a crapass game yesterday, but I'm here and have a lineup and this place will probably be slow tonight ... Reyes ss Lo Duca c Beltran cf Delgado 1b Wright 3b Green rf Chavez lf Woodward 2b Hernandez p Giles 2b LaRoche 1b Jones 3b Jones cf McCann c Francoeur rf Langerhans lf Pena ss Davies p

Mets up 3 - 0 on a bases loaded double by Delgado.

SteveJRogers Sep 28 2006 07:46 PM

Niceage!

Frayed Knot Sep 28 2006 07:47 PM

EARLY RUNS! EARLY RUNS! Reyes - walk LoDuke - walk Beltran - bunt hit (scored an error but they're idiots) Delgado - bases-clearing double

Gwreck Sep 28 2006 07:47 PM

Off - fense? What is this "off - fense" you speak of? I'm not familar with such a concept.

Elster88 Sep 28 2006 07:48 PM

That was not as hard a catch as Andrueiuow made it out to be. It was up in the air forever.

Elster88 Sep 28 2006 07:56 PM

Holy fucking shit. El Duque....to quote Lou Brown. "Great catch, DONT EVER FUCKING DO IT AGAIN" as he barehands a grounder up the middle.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2006 08:06 PM

Nice week's worth of offense in the first. I'd like another week in the second.

TransMonk Sep 28 2006 08:08 PM

Fucking stupid! Why send Reyes? All well and all, but Jesus Christmas, that's the last thing we need.

martin Sep 28 2006 08:09 PM

i dunno that i buy that obliterating the catcher is all that safe either, seems like a collision of any kind is bad news for a guy reyes' size.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2006 08:10 PM

Duque risks himself with a play. Reyes with a slide. You hate the risks, but it's good to see them reminding themselves how to play playoff ball. 4-0.

martin Sep 28 2006 08:10 PM

although i guess i can accept that if you hit the catcher in the upper body you wont get the armored knee to the chest that reyes keeps getting.

metirish Sep 28 2006 08:11 PM

For a second I thought he was hurt...Acta sent him tonight but not last night.

Yancy Street Gang Sep 28 2006 08:12 PM

I wonder how aware Jose is that he's two steals away from a club record, and if he is, how much he cares?

KC Sep 28 2006 08:12 PM

Yeah, I don't get testing the arm of Jones on a play like that and Reyes really needs to learn how to protect himself and go agressively into home plate instead of sliding through brick walls.

TransMonk Sep 28 2006 08:14 PM

KC wrote: ...Reyes really needs to learn how to protect himself and go agressively into home plate instead of sliding through brick walls. Amen, brother. Yet another reason I wouldn't have sent him. He's so fast he hasn't learned how to slide yet.

TransMonk Sep 28 2006 08:22 PM

I have absolutely no problem with El Duque being our game one starter.

Yancy Street Gang Sep 28 2006 08:26 PM

No, me neither. He's our guy. Who woulda thunk it?

TransMonk Sep 28 2006 08:28 PM

Delgado walked on 3 pitches?

KC Sep 28 2006 08:30 PM

I might even start calling him El Duque, don't tell anyone.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2006 08:32 PM

The fourth ball was called when the pitcher blew on his hand.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2006 08:35 PM

Pat Coralles taking over for Bobby Cox. He first managed in 1978. If the Braves come back and win, it'd be his first victory since 1987.

TransMonk Sep 28 2006 08:36 PM

Great at-bat by Woodward. Fouls some off, works the walk, clears the pitcher. Excellent!

TransMonk Sep 28 2006 08:52 PM

El Duque shames the rookie with the sloe stuff to end the 3rd. Oh we're the boys of the chorus we hope you like our show We know you're rooting for us but now we have to go What's up doc, what's cooking What's up doc, are you looking For Bugs Bunny's bunting doc has gone a-hunting Just to get a rabbit's skin but now that rabbit's gone again What's up doc, what's cooking Hey, look out, stop!!! You're gonna hurt someone, with that old shotgun Hey what's up doc?? We really mean it What's Up Doc

Yancy Street Gang Sep 28 2006 09:04 PM

Delgado doubles home another run. Finally a game for which it will be easy to give out some Schaefer.

Cohen: oh and the bugs bunny curve (on a O Hern pitch) Lurkin' from the booth I tell ya.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2006 09:19 PM

El Duque just pasted dat pat'etic palookah wit' his paralyzing, perplexing, perfect, pachydermus percussion pitch.

TransMonk Sep 28 2006 09:23 PM

TBS mentioned Bugs too.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2006 09:27 PM

Honestly, I caught 'dat.

This is one long game....

Gwreck Sep 28 2006 09:43 PM

0 hits through 8 innings for the Yanks.

metirish Sep 28 2006 09:44 PM

Beltran ties the Mets home run record with number 41....

KC Sep 28 2006 09:44 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Sep 28 2006 09:46 PM

Hundley hearin' footsteps ... Carlos hits #41

Welcome to history, 'Los.

KC Sep 28 2006 09:48 PM

Since the booth is lurkin', someone tell Keith there's no shore of Barbados that's facing the Pacific.

I'm still waiting for Keith to apologize for that geographical error when he tried to name the states ("it borders the most") that border Missouri. He forgot both Iowa and Nebraska, IIRC. Plus Tennessee borders just as many.

TransMonk Sep 28 2006 09:55 PM

Robocop in for the 6th. Hernandez for Hernandez. Promptly gives up a hit to Tony Pena.

TransMonk Sep 28 2006 10:16 PM

One more Hernandez in to play short in the 7th.

KC Sep 28 2006 10:47 PM

Wags: one pitch to Andruw ...

soupcan Sep 28 2006 10:47 PM

7-3 bottom 9. A. Jones deposits Wagner's first pitch into the centerfield seats to make it 7-4. Glad Billy got that out of his system.

Yancy Street Gang Sep 28 2006 10:48 PM

Second guy in tonight's game to hit his 41st homer of the season.

metirish Sep 28 2006 10:48 PM

I like Wagner,he only seems to like pressure games...gotta like that.

Edgy DC Sep 28 2006 10:50 PM

Jones is just the sort of guy who Wagner is vulnerable to. Just the sort of guy Duaner isn't vulnerable to.

ScarletKnight41 Sep 28 2006 10:53 PM

Gwreck Sep 28 2006 10:54 PM

Put it in the books....finally.

Rockin' Doc Sep 28 2006 10:56 PM

Billy Wagner is apparently the kind of guy that Willy Aybar is vulnerable to.

]I'm still waiting for Keith to apologize for that geographical error when he tried to name the states ("it borders the most") that border Missouri. He forgot both Iowa and Nebraska, IIRC. Plus Tennessee borders just as many. He did actually. They re-visited that question in the booth during a game maybe two weeks ago. He def fessed up to messing up the number of states touching Missouri but I don't think they mentioned Tennessee
