IGT 9/3/05 - Mets vs. Marlins

[nymr83]

Wright leads off with a single, come on boys, bail out your dumbass manager!

[Valadius]

Oh look, it's Guillermo Mota the Piazza-beaner.

[nymr83]

wright at 2nd 2 outs and its CASTRO TIME~!

[nymr83]

and castro belatedly called out on a check swing....how bout showing som heart and getting yourself tossed there willie?

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Castro with the Hustle Award.

We've very much reverted to the way we lost games at the beginning of the year: Stupidly and badly.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Some jive calls on Castro, I think.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

What major leaguer doesn't know that he has to run to first base on a swinging third strike that get away. Jesus!

to me, this is worst than what happened after because it offset the whole shebang. He only had to get one out, and he didnt even pitch to the guy. Gave him a free pass. At least get the guy to put the ball in play.

Damn,,,did you see Castros face on that?
He knew he swung there.
Thats a bad break.
The pitch fools batter and catcher.

he thought he checked his swing there...if you start running to first you are definetaly getting called on the swing, you've gotta sit there and act like you didnt go around.

"Excuse me, Mr. Umpire. I do believe that's an incorrect--- oh, I'm sorry. You're probably right. I'll just go back to the dugout now. Thank you, sir."

[Guest Rotblatt]

Padilla had to get two outs and he got one. No excuse for walking Castillo but he DID get one out, Zvon.

Willie's a fucking retard and couldn't manage a motherfuckng bullpen to save his life.

Bell's been doing pretty well all season long and should've been used instead of fucking Takatsu.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad we brought Takatsu up, but he has control problems and bringing him in with the bases loaded makes little sense. Should've been Robo or Bell up there instead, no question.

Should've been Heilman, really, but after he bailed Zambrano out last night, he wasn't available.

Castro got punked there, but Willie's lack of fire disturbs me. Get angry, Willie and fire your boys up.

All game, I KNEW it would be another stupid, heartbreaking loss, but I let myself get pulled in again, and AGAIN it's Willie that's letting me down.

He just doesn't get it, and it's ridiculously frustrating.

[Zvon]

Castro, as soon as he saw the ball get by DeLuca, shoulda tore ass to 1st.
wright pullin into 3rd, I bet either thered be no throw of a rushed throw and an error, there.
These things are easy to say in retrospect.

Nice catch by Floyd.
Shingo gets another chance and does his job this inning, but it could be too little too late.

Mets have to make siomething happen.
It be nice if Diaz walked the walk and kaboomed one here.

[Valadius]

Shingles works a 1-2-3 inning.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

] you've gotta sit there and act like you didnt go around.

I disagree -- umpires make the call, players don;t. If he didn't swing he gets another chance. If he runs, he's safe at first.

It's a stupid play, just like his baserunning fuckup that foreshadowed the dreaded Friday Pittsburgh game.

[seawolf17]

Castro doesn't strike me as a really bright light.

Way to swing at the first pitch, Diaz, you @!&$*(&(!*@%(!*@^$(*^!%(*&!@(*@%!(*#^(!*@%(*!&@(*(@!*&$!(*@^$.

@!(&$@!

[seawolf17]

I hat baseball.

[Elster88]

Someone please perform the last rites on this team.

By the way, I can't believe Diaz fucked up the perfect game bid by Benson.

Unreal. I was screaming at my set, even before Delgado launched the ball into the bleachers.

The Mets are just depressing as hell to watch these days.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Damn, I step out for a bit and all hell breaks loose.

Time for a miraculous rally in the ninth.

[seawolf17]

DO NOT LET CAIRO BAT.

I don't really have a problem swinging at the first pitch. I do have a problem with Cairo taking his at-bat here.

Of course he's not a bright one.



Look at the damn picture! He's clueless!

[Guest Rotblatt]

Oh, good, he's leaving Cairo in!

Fucking genius, Willie.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Get Cairo out of there.

[seawolf17]

Base hit or not, there's no reason to leave Cairo up in that spot. Who's on the bench?

[Guest Rotblatt]

Oh, good, he's leaving Beltran in.

Fucking genius, Willie.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Cairo now 4 for his last 47.

Beltran, we need you. NEED YOU.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

How could Willie possinbly pinch hit for Cairo? I mean, he was once a Yankee, so he must be good.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Well, then, OK.

[Elster88]

And Cairo jams my words back down my throat with a single to left. Time for Beltran to earn his pay. A loss here and the season is over as far as I'm concerned.
