Thank you, Braden Looper, for your clutch performance this inning.

This is suddenly losing the sarcasm to it.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Loops is not showing me enough to make me confident, but he fans Branyan.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Come on, Loop. One more batter.

[Frayed Knot]

Looper non-confidence aside, he got through 2 scoreless innings w/only an infield hit, a bloop hit and a walk.

Not perfect, but hardly a shabby outing.

[Theoldmole]

Not much to criticize on Loopy tonight

[metirish]

Good job by Loop, great game. David Wright up in the 11th.

[Guest Rotblatt]

However this turns out, our pen was amazing today.

Speaking of the pen, who do we have left? Just Graves & Koo?

If so, we have to get it done now.

[Guest GYC]

That might be it. Graves is warming up now. I was just about to jump on Willie, but there is no one else.

[metirish]

Graves up in the bullpen, time to win it is Wright now.

[metsmarathon]

there's mr. koo...

[Guest Rotblatt]

DAVID WRIGHT!

Come on, Cam, show Beltran how we do it with a runner at first!

[Guest GYC]

I love Bill Hall.

[Theoldmole]

What a break!

[Frayed Knot]

WOW!
That would have been the 2nd hit-and-run backfire of the night but good things happen when you hit the ball HARD!

[metirish]

Great stuff, yeah walk Doug and pitch to Castro, in Ramon I trust.

[Theoldmole]

And the intentional pass to Minky....

[Guest Edgy DC]

That's the breakie we needed.

A drive up the middle knuckles sort of on the shortstop Hall.

[Theoldmole]

And oue hot bat to the plate.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Go WIllie Ball!!!!

Wright running on 3-2, Cam with a liner off the glove of the shortstop! Runners at 1st & 3rd & Dougie's getting the IBB.

Not good enough to pass, Beltran, by the way. .003 points left to go.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Holy shit. Totally up to Mike now.

Please no GIDP, please no GIDP, please no GIDP . . .

[Guest Edgy DC]

I've been waitiing for you all night, Mike.

Alll night.

[Frayed Knot]

Castro was too anxious. This guy's been all over the place.

[Guest GYC]

Come on, Mikey.

3 balls, no strikes.


A Hispanic Kenny Rogers?

[Guest Rotblatt]

3-0 to Mike.

[Guest GYC]

And the Mets win!

[Frayed Knot]

Kinda like that!!!!

[Theoldmole]

A walkoff walk! And a happy recap

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

The Mets win on a walk-off walk to Piazza.

Mets 9 Brewers 8

[Guest Edgy DC]

In twenty minutes it'll be the first anniversary of the passing of Bob Murphy.

Take us to the commercial, Bob.
