IGT 8/2/05: Los Brewers al Los Mets... En Espanol!

[seawolf17]

YAAAAAY Marlon Anderson! Tied up!

[Guest Edgy DC]

TIED UP!

[seawolf17]

By the way, I love Ramon Castro. I like watching him out there; I feel like he's going to get big hits. I'm going to keep beating the Castro drum louder and louder.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Meet the me!
Meet the me!
Step right up and greet the me!

[seawolf17]

And Senor Reyes takes a strike tres cantado and el rally esta muerte. S'okay; s'tied up.

World Series party at martin's place!

[Guest Edgy DC]

Goin' to the ninth.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Hey, without relaunchng the debate about re-launching the old Brewer hat, isn't the current Milwaukee insignia a violation of the ban against advertising logos?

Some goofy inconsistent high strike calls behind the plate tonight.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Great game by the capital of Egypt tonight.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Damn. Mets do everything right and end up with two outs.

[Guest Rotblatt]

If we lose tonight, it's Beltran's fault, all the way. I don't care that he ripped the ball and got unlucky. In a game where we're ripping apart the starting pitcher and hitting the pen hard, Beltran needs to be a part of that. Get a hit, work out a walk--whatever. Barely beating out a double play to let a run come home doesn't cut it for me.

Despite the magical comeback, I'm in a pissy mood. This has "Close, but not close enough" written all over it. And I blame Beltran.

And Zambrano, I suppose. Is he hurt, or what?

[Guest Rotblatt]

Motherfucker.

Beltran, you suck.

[Guest GYC]

*bows down to Mike Kameron*

[Guest Rotblatt]

Holyfucking shit!!!!

CAMERON!!!!!

Belts one over the left field fence, and HOT DAMN but I'm excited again!

Dougie gets a hit here and his OPS will be higher than Beltran's.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Cammie say

[Guest GYC]

="Rotblatt"]Holyfucking shit!!!! CAMERON!!!!! Belts one over the left field fence, and HOT DAMN but I'm excited again! Dougie gets a hit here and his OPS will be higher than Beltran's.

Wow... 8O

That's pretty surprising, even with Beltran's extreme underachieving.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I weely weely want this game.

[Frayed Knot]

Piazza apparently not going to PH in the 9-spot.

[Guest Rotblatt]

The walk does it for Dougie as well.

Mientkiewicz's OPS: .744
Beltran's OPS: .741

sigh.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Come on, Woody!!!

How much woud I like to have Valent in this spot?

[metirish]

Great job by Woodie, ball four, c'mon Jose

[Guest Rotblatt]

Oops. My math was off.

Beltran: .744 OPS
Mientkiewicz: .736 OPS

So it's not really as close as I thought. Dougie would've needed at least a triple to pass Beltran.

Nonetheless, have some fucking pride, Beltran. Do something good.

[Frayed Knot]

Fortunately, several of those grounders in the top of the 10th were hit slowly enough that even Cairo could get to them.



Now the Egyptian leads off w/a walk.
DON'T bunt please.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Cairo has had a great game.

[Guest GYC]

BELTRAN!!!!!!!! :evil: :evil:

I think I'm going to go cry.

C'mon, Corneilus.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Damn, CB has been pummelling the ball to the right side and has garbage to show for it.

[metirish]

Yeah Cairo has had a great game, Beltran has been brutal, maybe Floyd will do the biz.

[Frayed Knot]

Ah he shoulda bunted

(only kidding)

[Guest Rotblatt]

Carlos, seriously . . .

Maybe he should be bunting in those spots.

Down to .742 OPS now.

A single by Dougie ties it up; anything more puts him in the lead for the season.

[metirish]

To state the obvious but tonight would be a great win, the Nats lost as did the Phillies and Marlins, come on you Mets.
