Wilkerson leads off with a single to center.

[Guest Rotblatt]

And Carroll doubles to right, moving Wilkerson to third.

Ugh.

I hope Seo doesn't turn into a pumpkin now.

[Guest cooby]

It's a day game?

I am really out of the loop...

[Frayed Knot]

Nats get 3 in the top as Seo gets both hit and dinked ... the madness continues.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Reyes with a home run!

[Guest Edgy DC]

Big Congratulations to the Seos, who are clearly expecting another baby.

Cairo in right. Yuck.

[Centerfield]

Unbelievable. Guzman goes deep. 4-0 Nats. September sucks.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Jesus Christ.

I hate baseball.

[Guest cooby]

What happened to Reyes HR? Doesn't it count?

[Centerfield]

Good news is it's starting to rain.

LET'S GO RAIN
LET'S GO RAIN

[Centerfield]

Oops. 4-1 Nats. Sorry about that.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Carroll with a hit down the left-field line. He tried for two, but Cliff threw him out.

[Centerfield]

Big Congratulations to the Seos, who are clearly expecting another baby.

Congratulations to the Mets as well, who are clearly expecting having laid an egg here in September.

Whew, I thought Rotblatt was making stuff up to make things look better...

[Guest Edgy DC]

Oh, no, Christian Guzman is up.

[Elster88]

Does Cairo in right make any sense? I hate to say this on the heels of the "Willie is/isn't a moron" controversy, but that is just plain foolish.

In the first Fran busted out his "Seo has gained cahnfidence and swagger on the mound and was immediately (like, before he finished his sentence) shot down by Ralph who said it's got nothing to do with that, it's because he gained a curveball and split-finger fastball. Nice retort by Kiner with a minimum of phlegm in his throat.

Only in the sense that the Mets aren't carrying reserve outfielders except Williams, who hits like an infielder.

I imagine that a listing of the number of outfield appearances and starts given to Cairo, Woodward, and Anderson (and others) would be chilling.

So if the Norfolk season is over, why isn't Valent up here? Did he get taken off the 40?

[Elster88]

40 doubles for Wright. That's a lot for one game.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Yes.

[Frayed Knot]

JWS gets his first 1-2-3 inning in the 5th.

Now all we have to do is figure out how to score some runs.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Valent was removed from the 40 May 28th when the Mets recalled Victor Diaz. He was out of options so he had to be removed from the 40 (and clear waivers) to go to Norfolk.

[Frayed Knot]

3 straight 1-out hits: Jacobs (PHing for Seo), Reyes & Matsui - load the bases and threaten to stir things up here ....

except that Beltran pops the 1st pitch up!!!!

[Centerfield]
