Didn't really expect to see Lo Duca.

Benjamin Grimm Apr 18 2007 05:08 PM

He'll get his injury, whatever it is, looked at after the season ends.

metirish Apr 18 2007 05:12 PM

Just tuned in,Mets up 2 - 0 ,what happened?

Benjamin Grimm Apr 18 2007 05:18 PM

I turned it on at 3-0. Not a great start for Dontrelle, huh?

metirish Apr 18 2007 05:21 PM

No it's not,and now it's 4 - 0 with the bases loaded....2 out.

Kid Carsey Apr 18 2007 05:26 PM

I don't know if the current Mets have a kangaroo court, but what the hell was that non-slide into second by Alou? The only thing you can control in a base- ball game is hustle and grit, and ya gotta make that throw to first as difficult as possible.

iramets Apr 18 2007 05:27 PM

Good call. I'm listening on the radio, so I didn't see it, but ya gotta hustle.

A walk for "Belch, Ron" as Tom McCarthy pronounces it, followed by D-Wright's 25-straight-games single. First and third, two out.

Batty31 Apr 18 2007 06:27 PM

Willis is having a meltdown....8-0

TransMonk Apr 18 2007 06:30 PM

I don't know about Reyes going home on that wild pitch. Do we really need Reyes to be sliding into Willis at the plate with a seven run lead? Thank god he didn't hurt himself.

iramets Apr 18 2007 06:35 PM

Haven't you heard? He's Jackie Robinson.

Johnny Dickshot Apr 18 2007 06:37 PM

Old fashioned asswhoop.

The Marlins' scoreboard has, in their photo of Green standing in Times Square, Borat in the background giving the thumbs up. I'm amused.

Kid Carsey Apr 18 2007 06:49 PM

I don't have the sound on loud, they were talking about it on SNY broadcast. I don't get the joke, but I haven't seen or know too much about that guy or the movie.

Gwreck Apr 18 2007 06:59 PM

The two errors in the first killed the Marlins...but it wouldn't have mattered much. Mets were smacking Dontrelle around. Beltran's shot was a direct line drive, just barely over the scoreboard in left field. We'll get some delayed love for him here...

iramets Apr 18 2007 07:01 PM

Jose now has as many doubles as triples (3)--surprised it took him this long to catch up.

Willets Point Apr 18 2007 07:07 PM

Phooey!

Kid Carsey Apr 18 2007 07:07 PM

With the sound down low and doing some stuff I didn't realize that a no-no just got broken up ... probably best because I would have typed something about it and got blamed for the forty some odd years of no no-nos not getting put to rest.

Johnny Dickshot Apr 18 2007 07:14 PM

Isn;t Joe Bordhard responsible for some other crime against Metdom? I'm thinking he hit a crushing HR for them against us last year? Right?

iramets Apr 18 2007 07:20 PM

Valentin drives one in, Mets up 9-2

iramets Apr 18 2007 07:21 PM

Chavez pinches for Maine, who gave up 2 hits and 2 runs in 7.

Good stuff from Maine tonight. It was great to see one of our starting pitchers lead off the seventh inning...hopefully that trend will continue for him.

Gwreck Apr 18 2007 07:29 PM

Found it. 2-run homer against Glavine in the bottom of the 8th on May 27th last year. Was inconsequential though, Mets won 7-4 (was 7-1 at time of homer).

Kid Carsey Apr 18 2007 07:32 PM

TM: >>>It was great to see one of our starting pitchers lead off the seventh inning<<< Not to mention bat in the top of the first too.

Johnny Dickshot Apr 18 2007 07:34 PM

Thanks. That Borchard is always making it less of a blowout for them.

Kid Carsey Apr 18 2007 07:42 PM

I'm a little worried about Heilman, it took four pitches in the ninth.

TransMonk Apr 18 2007 07:50 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Apr 18 2007 09:23 PM

Cubbies tie the Braves at 5 in the 7th as the Mets game ends...and then take the one run lead. On edit: The Cubs still suck and I hate the Braves. ATL wins vs. CHI bullpen.

Rockin' Doc Apr 18 2007 08:11 PM

I just watched the video highlights of the game on MLB.com. There aere a lot of Marlin fans disguised as red seats when Beltran smoked his home run to left field.

="Kid Carsey"]TM: >>>It was great to see one of our starting pitchers lead off the seventh inning<<< Not to mention bat in the top of the first too. yeah, i'd like to sign up for our starting pitcher batting in the 1st and 7th innings of every game, we'd probably be something like 140-22 on the year. i was at a Fridays watching it there, as usual the Mets broadcasters started circling the "0" on the scoreboard and dumb stuff like that way too early.
