Anybody Know Matt?

Pastey Met fan Matt Murphy, 22, of Queens, New York, on a one-way stopover in San Francisco on his way to Australia, makes a late decision to take in last night's Giants' game, and gets a golden ticket in his Wonkabar, plus an armful of sexy lady cop.

Nice that he's wearing not just one but two Met shirts for his moment in the sun.

I was talking to Hal Roach the other day. He doesn't say much*, but it's nice, just sitting on the porch, enjoying the lemonade. Suddenly, he leans forward and says, "Edgy, a fat guy taking a flying dive into a scrum of money-grabbers equals comedy gold. Comedy gold, my friend."

Bonda was asked if he knew it was a Mets fan that caught the ball,said he didn't care and only hoped the guy didn't get hurt.

Yes, I completely agree.

Mike Bascik taking it all in stride,felt proud that he went right after Bonds all night and now says he and Al Downing can go to the card shows together...he was joking I think.Bonds talked with him after and gave him a signed bat...."to Mike ,God bless, Barry"

sell quickly (before his career ends) and this guy should get a ton of money.

I would think that Hank Aaron's 715 ball would be worth more than his 755.

I would think so. The image of 715 famous. I don't think I've ever even seen a replay of 755.

Mike Bacsik has deftly parlayed this experience into his first-ever daily hitcount victory on the Ultimate Mets Database. And today he looks certain to make it two in a row. (Unless Jeff Reardon robs another jewelry store, or Kevin Mitchell beheads another cat, or David Cone masturbates in public, or Cory Lidle finds a way to posthumously crash a plane into an apartment building.)

That makes TWO batters Bacsik should have hit, but didn't.

Murphy is on his way to Oz first class courtsy of Quatas airlines,Russo is killing Murphy for wanting to cash in on his catch...the guy that owns Steiner sports says the ball is worth about 250 to 300,he was in talks with Murph about a price.

That's absurd. If I had a baseball that was worth $300,000 I'd be sure to sell it. The guy's 22 years old. He can pay off his college and/or buy his first house with that money. Why should he keep a stupid baseball? I'd rather have a house than a baseball.

I'd rather have a house than a plaque next to a baseball at the Hall of Fame too. I don't know what Russo expected the kid to do with it, but I'd be on the phone with Sotheby's STAT.

I thought that was Estes who faced Clemens for the first time he batted at Shea since 00?

Now that I think of it, you're right.

It's easy to be judgemental when you get paid obscene money fofor acting obscenely. irish you listen to a lot of M&MD for a hater.

We've been over this before and I only ever listen to the FAN when I am off work,as I was today,but I have listened to enough of M&MD over the years to form an opinion on them...it's Francesa I hate BTW...
