IGT, vs. Washington, 4/3/2006

[Guest sharpie]

Now do we pinch hit for him? 89 pitches after 5.

[smg58]

And Soriano goes down with the bat on his shoulders.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Getting a guy looking with a runner on third. Sweet. Very Pedro-esque.

[smg58]

Glavine is staying in.

[smg58]

That will look like a solid line drive in the boxscores...

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

And Glavine leads off the inning with a cheap single.

[Guest Rotblatt]

So do we go to the pen here?

If we do, I'd suggest Heilman for 3 innings.

Otherwise, we'd be looking at Julio, Bradford or Oliver. Not too inspiring.

But Glavine bats for himself and gets an infield single.

How about that?

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

And then he gets out of a pickle after Reyes' out.

[smg58]

Nats execute rundown like Little Leaguers and Glavine avoids double play. Not sure we want Glavine doing all this running before pitching his last inning.

[smg58]

Nice looking double from our new catcher.

[Guest Edgy DC]

The opposite field double means two more bases of running by Tom Glavine.

[smg58]

Beltran pops out and really hears it from the crowd.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Beltran pops up with two in position and hears the boos.

[Willets Point]

Beltran with 4 LOB today. Let me the first to say this season that Beltran is washout like George Foster.

[Guest Edgy DC]

smiggy gets the drop on me.

[smg58]

Delgado hits an even weaker popout than Beltran, and a big opportunity is wasted. Sigh.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

Delgado pops up to end the inning.

Official game: I'm going to activate three new names on the UMDB. We now officially have had 774 Mets.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Mets Oh-for-Carlos.

[Willets Point]

Popping out to short with men in scoring position. It's what Carloses do!

[Guest Edgy DC]

Sitting in front of Mayor Bloomberg in that last shot: A Monstrously Huge Batboy.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Tommy G. strikes out Zimmerman.

3 K's in a row.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

Glavine's at 94 pitches, according to GameDay. Probably his last inning?

He's struck out three in a row.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Five Ks for Glavine. Three in a row.

It's Tom Paciorek in the booth that I thought was Darling. He seemed to be talking and thinking too fast for Darling.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

That's three guys in a row who said that Glavine struck out three in a row.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Clayton singles.

You know who would've gotten a run in had he been batting third?

Tom Glavine.

Dude's a stone-faced killah with the bat.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

1-6-3 DP.

End of inning.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

Edgy, are you watching this game on a computer?

I would have thought you'd be blacked out from watching a local game.

[metirish]

How many did Glavine(true met) K in a row?

[The Big O]

What does 3 up and 3 down mean to you, airman?

[Guest Rotblatt]

Sweet.

Now let's try not to fuck this up, bullpen.

Willie, go with Heilman for 2 innings.

Or maybe Sanchez, Heilman, Wagner--that'd be okay too.
