Matsui's homecoming, ruint.

Benjamin Grimm Apr 23 2007 05:48 PM

Three-run homer for Valentin. Until Green's homer on Friday night against Atlanta, I had not seen a Met hit a home run. (They always homered when I was away from the TV.) Now I've seen two by Green and one by Valentin. (Hey! Their names rhyme!)

I would. HEY! LOOK! BIG SHEA!

Edgy DC Apr 23 2007 06:22 PM

Let's get some action. Mets up 4-0 midway through the fifth, the top half of which ends on a nice running catch in foul ground by the Green Machine.

This mid-inning Pac-Man graphic on MLB.TV is horrible. Where's Tom Petty?

metirish Apr 23 2007 06:33 PM

Liking Big Shea up top....vintage Shea to boot.

Kid Carsey Apr 23 2007 06:48 PM

Why are there YES Yankees commercials on SNY during Mets games? Does YES show SNY commercials?

Marlins beating the Braves 8-3, giving us a good shot to re-claim first tonight. Bring him in, Jose.

Alou stranded after a lead off double. Even with a 3 run lead, I hate when that happens.

Edgy DC Apr 23 2007 06:56 PM

They fail to score the leadoff doubler, in part because they sent Maine out to bat. Now he returns to pitch the seventh, with 88 pitches under his belt.

Edgy DC Apr 23 2007 06:59 PM

Makes Barmes look stupid as he gets the hat-trick on him. That young man is lost. My impression is that he rushes into the batter's box and the pitcher has him off-balance the whole at-bat. Maine does the seventh on six pitches and I'm pretty certain he'll see an eighth. A ninth is unlikely unless the Mets put this out of save range though.

Edgy DC Apr 23 2007 07:02 PM

Bob Keppell finally gets to Shea.

Edgy DC Apr 23 2007 07:05 PM

Welcome to 2007, Carlos! David?

Edgy DC Apr 23 2007 07:06 PM

Shea played somebody's cover of the Violent Femmes' "Gone Daddy Gone" for that homer. Wright walks on four. Nothng wrong with his walk rate.

Edgy DC Apr 23 2007 07:08 PM

Moses parted the Red Sea. Moises parted the Rockies infield. He's 3-3.

Edgy DC Apr 23 2007 07:09 PM

Hey-Zeus, Poolers. I'm looking like a solo act.

Wonder who did the cover of that. I'm telling you, until he hits a HR this season, I will refer to him as David Wrong.

Edgy DC Apr 23 2007 07:16 PM

Hey a partner. Delgado's got some graphic commentary due to him:

Edgy DC Apr 23 2007 07:18 PM

Two out in the eighth, he fans Atkins on his 104th pitch. I'm rooting for the complete game. I don't think I'm getting it, though.

Edgy DC Apr 23 2007 07:20 PM

Two singles and he gets the hook. Big ovation as his 7 2/3 is a 2007 high for a Metly workday.

Trashmonkeys also have a version listed.

Edgy DC Apr 23 2007 07:35 PM

Burgos on in the ninth. Walks the first guy, but gives Barmes the Golden Sombrero. Yike.

metirish Apr 23 2007 07:36 PM

Great outing by Maine,read the other day he has asthma,I imagine it must be tough to toe the rubber when it's humid.

UNGA BUNGA...bases loaded!

Johnny Dickshot Apr 23 2007 07:44 PM

Go Boogers go.

Edgy DC Apr 23 2007 07:44 PM

Burgos making few friends, having just pitched the Mets into a save situation.

Batty31 Apr 23 2007 07:45 PM

Put it in the books!

Johnny Dickshot Apr 23 2007 07:45 PM

Solid game. Especially impressed with Maine.

Edgy DC Apr 23 2007 07:49 PM

Delgado squeezes the last out and becomes Burgos' best friend. You get up every morning From your alarm clock's warning Take the 8:15 into the city There's a whistle up above And people pushin', people shovin' And the girls who try to look pretty And if your train's on time You can get to work by nine And start your slaving job to get your pay If you ever get annoyed Look at me I'm self-employed I love to work at nothing all day And I'll be... Taking care of business every day Taking care of business every way I've been taking care of business, it's all mine Taking care of business and working overtime Work out! If it were easy as fishin' You could be a musician If you could make sounds loud or mellow Get a second-hand guitar Chances are you'll go far If you get in with the right bunch of fellows People see you having fun Just a-lying in the sun Tell them that you like it this way It's the work that we avoid And we're all self-employed We love to work at nothing all day And we be... Taking care of business every day Taking care of business every way I've been taking care of business, it's all mine Taking care of business and working overtime Take good care! Of my business! When I'm away! Every day whoo! You get up every morning From your alarm clock's warning Take the 8:15 into the city There's a whistle up above And people pushin', people shovin' And the girls who try to look pretty And if your train's on time You can get to work by nine And start your slaving job to get your pay If you ever get annoyed Look at me I'm self-employed I love to work at nothing all day And I'll be...

Atlanta coming back in the ninth against the closer-free Marlins. It's 8-7, two out and McCann up with a man on second.

Edgy DC Apr 23 2007 07:54 PM

McCann goes McFann and the Mets are back in first.

Johnny Dickshot Apr 23 2007 07:58 PM

Dave Gallager in Lee Mazzilli's chair for the postgame.

Gwreck Apr 23 2007 09:07 PM

The deep drive to the warning track in right field was an encouraging sign for our third baseman. Regardless, I think we see Mr. Newhan starting at third either tomorrow or (more likely) Wednesday afternoon.
