JAKE-MONSTER!!!

[Guest Edgy DC]

Pedro blows his way out of the inning. Rally song time.

Time has come today
Young hearts can go their way
Can't put it off another day
And I don't care what the others say
'Cause they say we don't listen anyway
Time has come today, Hey!

The rules have changed today, Hey!
I have no place to stay, Hey!
And I'm thinkin' about the subway, Hey!
Love has gone away, Hey!
And tears have come and gone, Hey!
Oh my God! I have to run! Hey!

I have no home, Hey!
I have no home, Hey!

Now the time has come, Time!
There's no place to run, Time!
Might get burned up by the sun, Time!
Well, I've had my fun, Time!
Well, I've been loved and put aside, Time!
And I've been crushed by tumblin' tide, Time!
And my soul's be psychedelicized, Time!

Now the time has come, Time!
There are things to realize, Time!
Time has come today, Time!
Time has come today, Time!

Time!

Now the time has come, Time!
There are things to realize, Time!
Time has come today, Time!
Time has come today, Time!

Time!

Now the time has come, Time!
Time has come today, Time!
Time has come today, Yeah!

[Guest Edgy DC]

It works! We have a run!

A gen-u-ine lead!

[Valadius]

Castro atones for his earlier fuck-up.

[Zvon]

there ya go.



yikes---pedro surprized me there with that swing.

perfect, right by 3rd,but Ek is standing right there in the hole.


Castro out at 3rd on that grounder tho Pojols....OUCH.
Castro runs like my deceased grandmother.

[Valadius]

Do we commit to the Jake-Monster at first?

I'd do it.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Fun thing about the Cardinal booth-men... they're still terrified of Beltran.

Edgy does it again!

(good song too)

[Valadius]

Matsui beaned by Morris, here's Beltran.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Looked to me like Reyes should have had Castro's throw and he just plain missed it.

Hes a lefty, hes young, he's comes cheap.
Weve seen he can hit the ball, and with power.

Id do it in a heartbeat.

[Valadius]

Of course they are - look what he did during the playoffs against them last year.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Cardinal trivia: Who did the Cardinals trade to the Mets to get Jose Oquendo?

[Zvon]

Bonds is gonna play?

Now he's one guy I wouldnt mind seein beaned.

[Valadius]

Oquendo stayed with the Cards for a while, didn't he?

[Guest Edgy DC]

]Of course they are - look what he did during the playoffs against them last year.

I understood the why.

Luck changing --- a hard hit hit-and-run shot goes to the re-positioned Reyes and the Mets get a double-play.

Coleman?

[Guest Edgy DC]

Jackie Joyner-Kersee tears off the number counting down the remaining games at Busch.

Of all the peeps who don't need a Fredbird ride out to right in a convertible...

[Zvon]

yes.
And he played everywhere on the field.
Great utility guy.

[Valadius]

Wright with the ground-rule double!!!

[Valadius]

Come on Victor, bring him home.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Wright with a lead-off double and Anderson drops down a sac bunt.

Just what you like to see from your #5 hitter with a runner in scoring position.

Our lineup's in trouble without Floyd, but doubly so when Willie's the one setting it.

[Valadius]

Stupid Diaz.

Come on, Jake-Monster!!!!!

[Valadius]

JAKE-MONSTER DOES IT AGAIN!!!!!

I agree that you just dont fill that slot without adjusting the lineup.

Even if the Mets are out of it ya have to go thru the motions of playing to win.

And the guy who should be batting 5th (he or Diaz) drives in the run.

Nice rip Jacobs

[Valadius]

First and third, two outs for... Pedro.

That's an odd situation...

[Guest Edgy DC]

I don't like him there either, but I don't think he's just filling the spot.

[Valadius]

Oh well, what're you gonna do. You can't expect Pedro to get a hit with two outs and two men on.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Answer to the trivia question:

Infielder Angel Salazar and pitcher John Young.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Pedro's cap (and I assume the others) has an adjustable strap.
