IGT 07/26 - Braves at Mets

[kcmets]

ESPN game, first pitch 7:08 - Newcomb vs Porcello

[Lefty Specialist]

God, I can't watch ESPN. Will A-Rod be negotiating with the Wilpons on-air?

[kcmets]

I was curious before about whether I remembered correctly that Jessica left and

found tonight we get Karl Ravech, Eduardo Perez and Tim Kurkjian.

[Frayed Knot]

Mr. Rod announced a week or two ago that he has withdrawn himself from broadcasting any games involving the Mets while the bidding/buying process is still ongoing.

How about some hitting, boys? Don't trust Porcello.

[ashie62]

Time for Pete to have a game. Porcello will likely give up a couple of dingers. J.D. Davis, you too! hit!

[Lefty Specialist]

Porcello not exactly inspiring confidence.

[Lefty Specialist]

ESPN as usual focused on stupid banter rather than watching the game. So annoying.

GiDP was well-timed though.

He's not exactly getting ripped all over the field; mostly just a bunch of stuff dropping in front of outfielders.

Really only that RBI liner by Adams was solidly hit.



Meanwhile, we've got 2 HBPs to show for our noffense.

Zimmmmmmo

[Lefty Specialist]

Thank goodness we're hearing all about Chipper's 1999 season.

[G-Fafif]

Good news, Corey Oswalt is coming in, negating the likelihood he's the fifth starter.

[Edgy MD]

An out!

[Edgy MD]

Extra base for Céspedes.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Geez, we suck

[Edgy MD]

Destroyed by Dansby Swanson.

[kcmets]

Got them right where we want 'em.

Gary, Being Told That Jhoulys Chacín Is 32 Years Old: "He was 28 when this game started!"

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Wacha had much better results than Porky in spring/summer training. Wishful thinking kinda start I guess

[Benjamin Grimm]

I have no idea who Tuesday's starter is going to be.



Any chance it might be David Peterson?

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Fire Hefner

And since I wrote that they've switched to dropping a bunch of soft stuff behind our outfielders.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

And Chili Davis

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

See ya Tuesday

They'll have to fire Chili remotely.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Oswalt is taking one for the team tonight, isn't he?

[Edgy MD]

"WHAT! That's a basketball score!!"



— Mrs. Edgy upon hearing me report the score.

[kcmets]

14 - 1 and still plodding along in the 7th.



Someone at MLB who's worried about why people find baseball boring on TV should listen to the

audio of tonight's broadcast five times and fix it.

[Chad ochoseis]

On the bright side, Diaz won't be pitching the 9th.
