I like tonight to be a good old-fashioned slugfest. Mets win 11-5 or something like that. A Delgado and/or Green homer would be nice.

Valadius Aug 27 2007 05:04 PM

A Green RBI would be a freaking miracle.

Valadius Aug 27 2007 05:06 PM

Pedro will probably be back at the end of the road trip!

Valadius Aug 27 2007 05:13 PM

We're retired in order. Bah.

Zvon Aug 27 2007 05:19 PM

Haa--Charlies run... Id love to hear old Charie say the word fuck,lol which i assume he must have said. Rediculous he was run.

Valadius Aug 27 2007 05:25 PM

Let's go Alou!!!

Valadius Aug 27 2007 05:28 PM

Anybody else think that J.D. Durbin looks like the Devil?

Zvon Aug 27 2007 05:32 PM

="Valadius"]Anybody else think that J.D. Durbin looks like the Devil? i see it

Valadius Aug 27 2007 05:37 PM

Goddammit. Phils go up by one.

metirish Aug 27 2007 05:48 PM

Guys in the booth talking about E ndy Chavez,Keith said that Endy doesn't play enough to win a gold glove but he plays one,then said that he's a complete player,my question is can you be a complete player as a bench player/fourth outfielder.

Yup, as long as your sample sizes stay small.

Zvon Aug 27 2007 05:55 PM

WOW--Chase steps it up a notch and makes Delgado work for the out at 1st.

Valadius Aug 27 2007 05:55 PM

You don't even have to play the whole season to win a Gold Glove. Remember years ago when I-Rod won it even while missing half the season?

Zvon Aug 27 2007 05:57 PM

UGHHHHHHHH NOT BURRELL say it aint soo. that guy sucks (he has been doing well since Chase went down, da Bastage)

Zvon Aug 27 2007 05:59 PM

Jeeze--pay me a million bucks and I would have thrown my body in front of that Howard single, np. HAHA__Howard hung out--DP

Valadius Aug 27 2007 06:01 PM

BEAT THE DEVIL!!!

Valadius Aug 27 2007 06:07 PM

Goddammit, this is J.D. Durbin for crying out loud.

Zvon Aug 27 2007 06:07 PM

Wright gets Wronged ><

TransMonk Aug 27 2007 06:07 PM

***St. Lucie Update*** Martinez through 3 innings: 3 hits, 1 run (unearned), 1 K, 1 BB

Valadius - "Anybody else think that J.D. Durbin looks like the Devil?" zvon - "i see it" I think it's the hat.

It's the facial structure, the goatee, and the hair color combined with the hat.

Hey, Durbin's pitching a no-hitter! (My flagrant attempt to jix him.)

Valadius Aug 27 2007 06:18 PM

Beltran breaks up the perfect game!!!

metsguyinmichigan Aug 27 2007 06:19 PM

Yes! It worked! Goiod jinx.

Durbin making Delgado look like a bollox at the plate.

Fucking Delgado.

Zvon Aug 27 2007 06:25 PM

great job by Duke too--big 2 out hit and RBI very nice to have LoDuca back.

Zvon Aug 27 2007 06:28 PM

Duke gettin to third w/o reblowin his leg out--also a good thing to see.

Zvon Aug 27 2007 06:30 PM

YES---3-2. Dobbs gets eaten up.

Valadius Aug 27 2007 06:30 PM

Lawrence of Arabia knocks in another one!!!

Zvon Aug 27 2007 06:32 PM

Gah-Reyes cant gEtRdUn. Ill take the two. :)

Zvon Aug 27 2007 06:37 PM

Figures Chase gets back for this series... AWWW__AND HITS A FREAKIN HOMER TO CENTER__ARGH.

metirish Aug 27 2007 06:37 PM

Utley with a homer to left center,fucking shit park...4 - 2 Phillies.

Zvon Aug 27 2007 06:44 PM

U GHHHH---Howard hits a liner that I thought was gonna take the outfield wall down. Double. I was just about to say I cant complain about what Lawrence is giving us tonight.. Glad i didnt cuz of my propensity to think I have this ability to jinx eveything. Chase and Ryan just lit him up--well... they are the two that hurt ya most. (i see ALOT of Phils games--its a wonder that I am still the biggest best Met fan down here in South Joysey- the way Ive been cut off from seeing em play. Guess thats what makes me the biggest and best tho)

Valadius Aug 27 2007 06:45 PM

Time for Lawrence to take a seat.

What the fuck is the umpire doing following Dookie out to the mound?

TransMonk Aug 27 2007 06:48 PM

I wouldn't mind not seeing Lawrence in a Mets uniform ever again. Welcome back, Endy. See ya, Larry.

Zvon Aug 27 2007 06:50 PM

Why do they think its such an important thing to speed games up? Why dont they think like I do: The longer a game lasts the more entertainment you are getting for the price of admission.... I dont understand this.. If a game goes 4 hours Im ecstatic. Im like woohooo---what a great investment of my time that was. 4 hours of baseball! *does a lil dance* on edit I changed all 3's to 4's cuz that would be even better

***St. Lucie Update***: Martinez through 6: 5 hits, 1 run (unearned), 2 BB, 4 K, 1 HPB Carlos Gomez 0-3 with a K. St. Lucie tied with Palm Beach 1-1.

Sosa gets out of a jam.

metirish Aug 27 2007 06:57 PM

Cheers MOnk,one more start from Lawrence Saturday then his next turn is Pedro's day,might be back then. NIce work by Sosa.

bmfc1 Aug 27 2007 06:58 PM

This is the same umpiring crew the Mets just saw in DC. CB Bucknor is horrible, in DC Hickok incorrectly called out Wright stealing and Joe West hasn't done anything good on the field since he shared umpiring duties with Leslie Neilsen. Terrible crew working a big series.

Valadius Aug 27 2007 07:00 PM

Bucknor fucking sucks.

metirish Aug 27 2007 07:02 PM

Darling talking a lot of sense about Pedro,feels he needs to face a higher class of hitter to tell him how good his stuff is,says single A hitter swing at everything.

Zvon Aug 27 2007 07:07 PM Edited 1 time(s), most recently on Aug 27 2007 07:14 PM

Speaking of umping.. Did anyone see the take out slide in the Phils last series vs the Mariners? A double play grounder where Phils Ruiz took out M's Giles at 2nd base? He deff broke up the DP and a runner scored. After Giles cried a lil Ruiz was called for interference and the DP counted, and the run didnt score. If U saw it, what did u think about it? I thought it was a great take out slide and me and my brother ended up arguing about this. Is ML.baseball like a country club softball game anymore?

seawolf17 Aug 27 2007 07:08 PM

"What are those? Lilacs? Violets?" Funny. I really enjoy when all three guys are on the broadcast. Oh, and Billy, get the h-e-double-hockey-sticks out of the other team's bullpen.

Valadius Aug 27 2007 07:17 PM

Delgado gets a hit! It's a miracle!

Willie just wasn't feeling it, so he sends Jeff Conine to pinch hit for Green. There goes the miracle comeback.

Ruiz is going to pay for that one each and every time he faces SD.

metirish Aug 27 2007 08:02 PM

Mr.Met got escorted out by security in Philly on mascot night,fans were booing him while security had his arm twisted behind his back,what a shame.

Ruiz is going to pay for that one each and every time he faces SD. I guess I dont know my baseball anymore. Cause not only could he reach the base, he was able to reach the other side of it. And at that point, it was his job to break up that DP. And yea--I just realized, b4 i even read this, that it was the Pads and not the Ms. But thats the thing about these Phils games i get--i dont really pay attention to em unless i hear some noise. Its like a baseball nightlight i have on.

Valadius Aug 27 2007 08:14 PM

Down to our last out. Fucking Bucknor should get canned.

Zvon Aug 27 2007 08:19 PM

Okay--that was horrid-able. Ill take the silence about by jinx remark to speak volumns to me. If the worst happens here in Philly, I wont be able to live it down. And Ill do anything/everything in my imaginary powers to support my Mets. *lowers head and walks away. ;) crap--here they are interviewing Chase, the last thing I wanted to see. *hurls

I don't see why we couldn't have sent Shitty-weis down to New Orleans like a month ago to work on his pitching. By now it's too late.

Edgy DC Aug 27 2007 08:29 PM

Oh, right, you're hell at making nicknames.

Johnny Dickshot Aug 27 2007 08:38 PM

Not for nothing, but I thought batting Lawrence in the 5th (?) was a dumb risk at which we got lucky, and all the good it accidently did was un-done the following half-inning ...by leaving Lawrence in there. I'm thinking Willie prolly figured that he'd give Lawrence every bit of rope he'd need to hang himself -- his best-case scenario for being employed tomorow was to take Sele's job -- but I think after that 0-2 HR to Burell I'd seen enough of Brian Lawrence and his 82-mph heater. Anyway, jeez, I'd have shirley given a bat to Conine there and said, swing as hard as you can, chief.

metirish Aug 27 2007 08:42 PM

Odd then that he ended up pinch hitting Conine and Milledge back to back after not pinch hitting when Lawrence knocked in the run.

Rockin' Doc Aug 27 2007 08:50 PM

It is nights like this one that make me happy that I couldn't see the game.

Willets Point Aug 27 2007 08:52 PM

I actually thought the Mets had the night off until about 9 pm when I got an email from Scarlett Knight where she said she was at the game in Philly. I told her about thinking the Mets had the night off and she wrote: ]They've been taking the night off, regardless of the game in progress Truer words never been spoke.

metirish Aug 28 2007 10:24 AM

I could do with using less curse words myself...I'll keep that in mind. From David Lennon's blog on Newsday,I watched this movie at least a dozen times when I was younger....nut zoo kau..something like that. ] Bloodied but unbowed in the NL East blood.jpegAfter last night's 9-2 loss to the Phillies, Orlando Hernandez was the first one to get his hands on the remote control for the two hanging TVs in the near-empty visitors clubhouse. Apparently, El Duque was uninterested in Pedro Martinez's start for St. Lucie because he only watched a few pitches before settling on the Jean-Claude Van Damme vehicle, "Bloodsport." Most onlookers recognized Van Damme, but few could place the movie, until Paul Lo Duca wandered out of the trainer's room, peered up at the screen and yelled, "Bloodsport!" Van Damme -- Frank Dux in the movie -- took a few kicks to the face, a punch or two to the solar plexus and even had some grainy substance thrown into his eyes, which had a blinding effect. In other words, it was only a little more heated than Monday's interactions between David Wright and plate umpire CB Bucknor. But Wright managed to restrain himself until the end of the eighth inning, when he finally was ejected. It was indicative of the team-wide frustration from a loss the Mets need to get past quick. With three more games against the Phillies, followed by three in Atlanta, this is no time for the Mets to slip into a funk. As Lo Duca said before Monday's game, the slogan for this week should be, "No Mercy."nomercy.jpg That's a movie, too, only with Richard Gere and Kim Basinger. Perhaps the Mets should stick with Van Damme for motivational purposes.

Edgy DC Aug 28 2007 10:31 AM

All movies with Richard Gere should be called No Mercy.

Farmer Ted Aug 29 2007 10:56 AM

From the game... First trip to Citzens Bank Park. Nicely done. Saw the Bull serving up some ribs. YYYBBB. You've seen one new ballpark, you've seen them all. Went with 7 Phils fans...obviously they're rooting for the home team but not obnoxious like the yahoos all around us. A few buses made the trip from Queens and those Mets fans were a dozen rows behind, keeping security on their toes. Good conversationlists mainly. At one point, turned around and saw Diamond Dad and ScarletKnight41 three rows behind me. Went back for a visit. Good to see some familiar faces FROM THE HOT AS HELL PICNIC.

Willets Point Aug 29 2007 12:48 PM

SK told me she saw you but I didn't realize that you just met up randomly like that. Sorry you didn't see a better game.

cooby Aug 29 2007 04:51 PM

Kid Carsey Aug 29 2007 05:06 PM

Like I always say, behave yourself at the ball yard because you never know who is sitting three rows behind you.
