IGT - 5/12/06 - Mets @ Milwaukee-Lima tries to stay perfect

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

It's Lima time. Time for the Mets line up to take out their frustration after last night's defeat on Brewers starter Dave Bush.

Anyone know weather conditions there?
Yesterday forecast said 100% chance of rain in Mil. (weather chnl)

[DocTee]

Seeing how they play in a dome, this shouldn't affect the game.

Thnx for the pic link KC.
Now I remember that place.


Its a new park (2001) with that big hanger looking roof and for some reason that roof looks old--maybe its the color....

I think this is the first time I ever watched a game played at Miller Park. (Thanks MLB Extra Innings. When I relied on ESPN and Fox for my Mets games, they never telecast Mets-Brewers.) The quality of the light seems odd. The roof is closed, so it's artificial lighting, but something about it looks strange.

On top of that, the Brewers announcers sound like they're sitting about ten rows behind me.

Nice to see two runs in the first. The Mets may need a lot of scoring with Lima pitching. I have no confidence in the guy with the Harpo hair.

[nymr83]

wheres the igt enthusiasm tonight???

[DocTee]

]I have no confidence in the guy with the Harpo hair.

That's catchy.

[Guest GYC]

Bases juiced for DWright with no one out.

[nymr83]

loaded w/ 1out for Wright lets get a run home and help lima time!

[nymr83]

sac fly scores loduca, beltran to 3rd, delgado goes to 2nd on a bad throw.

i'll take it though i'd like MORE MORE MORE!

[nymr83]

fuck floyd called out on strikes.

matsui up w/ 2nd and 3rd, 2 outs

[Guest Edgy DC]

I'l say this for Lima --- it feels like a while since anybody --- Pedro even --- has been able to let his character hang out like this. A taste of the Valentine era.

[nymr83]

Edgy, are you implying that shenanigans went on on Valentine's watch?

I'll second that; I logged on here just to make that remark.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Shenanigans, no. Wierdos stylin' on the mound, yup.

[Guest Edgy DC]

The character just gave up a Celilian homer to Prince.

[nymr83]

This was a close second, the best homerun i've seen still remains the Mo Vaughn shot off of the budweiser sign on the Shea scoreboard, though McGwire hitting his own number on the board was nice too, and probably more impressive since he was a righty.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Settle down Lima.

[Theoldmole]

That's why it matters to hit the cutoff man.

I thought he was out.

[nymr83]

turning point of the game right here, its bases loaded 2 outs...

[seawolf17]

THROW A FUCKING STRIKE.

[Theoldmole]

That's bad.

[seawolf17]

NOT THAT GOOD A STRIKE.
