IGT, Dia del Santo Patricio, 3/17

[Guest Edgy DC]

Mets in green hats and just put up four runs in the sixth to go up 6-3. Diaz with a homer, Kent with one for the Dodgers.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Darren Oliver on the mound, wearing Craig Swan's digits. Looks like a big strong guy.

OE: He fans a pair. Oliver's father was a big league infielder.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Corey Ragsdale wearing a Tony Clark-esque 00.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Dodgers in green hats also. Helmets are unchanged, though.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Joe "Hippas" up in a Zachrarian 40.

He watches pitches like a statue.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Perisho on and struggling. Two run double, still nobuddies out. Tie game.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Actually, it was a triple. Perisho recovered and got the next two without the run scoring from third. Tim Lavigne coming on. Booth guys are talking about Doc Gooden.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Milledge ripped one down the line. Knocked down to hold him to a single.

Bases are painted green also.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Wunsch is pitching with his extreme platoon splits. Two met righties have hits. Keppinger up, and he already has two extra-base hits today.

They have him bunting.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Ragsdale walks in a run. Mets up 7-6.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

I'm sure everyone's thrilled to have played to a 3:40, 10-inning 7-7, tie, spring training game.

Some hi-lites:

* Kepp's bases loaded triple was really a shallow line single to LCF that Repko allowed to bounce over his glove and roll to the wall. Kepp later tried getting an out at home on a ball hit to him but threw too high. He has a nice swing.

* Diaz hit a 2nd inning solo bomb.

* Traxxxx was flawless thru 3.1, then gave up 4 hits straight including a 2-run dinger to Kent, but got out of it with a DP. He said in an interview later that he was happy to have a chance to work from the stretch -- his last outoing was too easy.

* Neither Chavez nor Redman have really impressed.

* Milledge has. Hits it hard, nice level f-a-s-t swing.

* Juan Tejeda makes Victor Diaz look svelte.

* Gary Cohen's secret: He talks out of the left side of his mouth.

Damn liberal media.
