IGT 07/03 - Metropolitans at Yankees - Redux

[bmfc1]

Pete's numbers with runners in scoring position and less than two out can't be good.

[bmfc1]

Why don't the Yankees cameras show the two guys they showed earlier when Peraza struck out and the MFY fan looked like the asshole he is?

[Lefty Specialist]

Savoring the taste of Yankee tears.

[Edgy MD]

There are just gaps in this Yankee defense we haven't been seeing against NL East teams.

[Edgy MD]

I can think of one call on a ball at the knees that Culbreath has blown.



After that crew in Atlanta, that's something.

Well, the Phillies.

[Edgy MD]

That's about as definitive a Yankee Stadium Special as there can be.



Judge may have done Luis Rojas a favor. Now he can pull Walker without controversy.

He's thrown over 100 pitches.

[Edgy MD]

I know.

[Edgy MD]

Well, this is getting unsteady.

[bmfc1]

Luis loves Castro disproportionate to Castro's ability.

[Lefty Specialist]

Luis still thinks Castro is pitching like he did early in the year. He's not.



And Familia with runners on base- dangerous.

[Lefty Specialist]

Okay, danger averted. So who gets the last 9 outs?

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Howie feels Castro has been compromised by the goop confiscation

Stupid AL rules benefit us, so we keep Familia in for the 7th. Then maybe Smith.

[Fman99]

Terrible YES cameras/production aside, I am enjoying the hell out of this game. Hat tip to Familia for nipping that rally in the bud.

[Gwreck]

I'd give Smith the 9th too. This DH rule is idiotic, but we may as well take advantage.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Little Drew Smith looks like a little leaguer pitching to MFY muscle-bound goons like Stanton and Voit.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Put that mother in the books

Holy Cow! The Yankees' organist is playing "Meet the Mets!"

[Gwreck]

Great win.

Well, that's a contender.

The Post used this same headline thirteen years ago today, albeit in a different context. I have no memory of the almost fight between Keith Hernandez and Jose Reyes.

[Edgy MD]

Me neither, but hey, all-time Mets http://dailystache.net/throwback-thursday-jose-reyes-gets-in-a-fight-with-keith-hernandez/squaring off!

Reyes was having a http://www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2008/07/05/reyes-annus-horribilis/rough year over the preceding 12 months. He'd snap out of it in 2008. So would the Mets, as much as they could. AMAZIN' FIREWORKS I preceded by days the club's long-awaited sustained burst of competence, which vaulted them into first place, if not to stay.
