IGT 04/26, Mets at Giants

[Guest Edgy DC]

Bonds lines to deep center and it's over. A few innings late, but it's ours.

Well done, posters. Oliver gobbles up a win.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

It's over! The damn thing is over!

[duan]

go go Darren Oliver!

Still there's quite a bit to throw in the WIllie Watch here I reckon ...
Great win though 14-7's a pretty tasty start, even if we just get 1 from 3 in atlanta they'll be below .500 and we'll be well above.

Exactly 48 hours until the next game...

[Frayed Knot]

Well that was fun!

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

I'm not happy that Wagner blew the save, but I am happy about the fact that the blown save didn't define the game. In the past few years, the Mets would not have been able to rebound from such a blow. It's nice to see that they can rally and pick up their closer after a less than stellar performance.

A week or so ago that phrase had a totally different meaning.

Blame that blown save on the inept third baseman, not the closer. Wagner should have had a 1-2-3 inning.

The inept third baseman (whom I love) definitely contributed to the mess. But the gopher ball to Bonds was all Wagner.

being sick/tired sucks, i was drifting in and out all game, i seem to have awoken for all the times McCarthy/Rose raused their voices andfallen back asleep afterwards because i reember Bonds' HR and Franco's Single but little else.

[Guest cooby]

[Guest Edgy DC]

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Feel better - being sick suxx.

I was in a strip mall parking lot listening to the final out being recorded on my Walkman. I proceeded to yell

"YEAH! TAKE THAT YA STEROID RIDDLED FREAK!"

Full blame has to go to Wright here.

Afterward, nearly every teammate approached Wright to console him about the error, his fifth since last Wednesday. The win made the error easier to absorb, but Wright still approached Wagner to apologize. "Don't you ever apologize to me again," the closer instructed him.
