IGT 5-14-06 Sunday Against The Brewers Coming Down

[Zvon]

7 Ks gives Pedro the NL lead in strikeouts,
but he's on the shitty end of this stick so far.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Let's get him off the hook NOW!!!!

[Guest Edgy DC]

OK, knocked out the starter in the sixth. They can do this thing.

[Guest Hillbilly]

Time to jump all over this Brewer bullpen!

[Zvon]

Castro single.
Valentin with a sky high pop out right up the chute.
Pedro stays in and sacs for the 2nd time.
2 out-man on 2nd.

Reyes,, use your bat on the ball.

[Zvon]

he pops up and out.

[Zvon]

side note- Phils are tied with the Reds 1-1 in the 10th in Cincy.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Rally song brought to you by NRBQ by way of Dave Edmunds:

Just a bunch of guys driving in the car
No matter who's driving or for how far
Feels so good, yeah it's been so long
No fancy drivers tell us how to drive

Me and the boys!
Just me and the boys!
Me and the boys!

Me and my buddies just like to go
We're having fun, everybody knows
We don't fuss and we never fight
We're just grooving, taking in the sights

Me and the boys!
Just me and the boys!
Me and the boys!

Don't raise questions �bout how it's done
We're just messing round, having fun
The car gears shifting well up and down
The muffler�s fallin� out, but we love the sound

Me and the boys!
Just me and the boys!
Me and the boys!

It ain't like us to hang around this town
Cause downtown squares just bring us down
I've got to find me something new
Don't want to think about what they do, yeah�

The future's no problem, now, we don't care
�Cause wherever we're going, we'll soon get there

Me and the boys!
Just me and the boys!
Me and the boys!

[Zvon]

If the Mets dont make a comeback here it'll be more like


......(wait for it..............)





...Crawling from The Wreckage.

BADABOOM

[Zvon]

Delgado lost the pink bat.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Big big error by Ricky Weeks.

They bring in the LOOGy to get Delgado, he induces the grounder, but Weeks boots it. Now they have to go Kolb with one down in the seventh to go after Wright.

[Zvon]

Weeks errors the funky humpback liner off Delgado.
...Errors kill, ya know.
As do walks, which is how Beltran got on.

Wright up.
2 on-1 out.

Time to do it David.

[Zvon]

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

huge hit by Wright.
HUGE error by Jenkins.
METS TIE IT!

[Guest Edgy DC]

Wright getting a crap call from the umpire, still hangs in there and ties it with a dubble.

A dubble, Rubble!

[Zvon]

wow--no error on the play.
Wright doubles in 2 (< that sounds better anyway).

[metirish]

How was that NOT an error on Jenkins?....

[Zvon]

Ya know-even if it was a clean double (which it wasnt) no way was Delgado going to score on a typical double.
He only made it cuz the ball was so far into right field.

I shouldnt complain tho- it works for Wright.

Tie ball game- mid 7th.

[DocTee]

Four runs on three hits; Zvon's right: walks and errors do kill.

[Guest Bret Sabermetric]

Changed the scoring to a single and an error on Jenkins. Wright loses a ribbie.

well,....they made the right dicision there.
It was a huge error.


Pedros done.
Lets pick him up guys.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Release Valentin now!

Release him from the bench.

[Zvon]

WOW-
Valentin with his 5th hit in his last 6 at bats.
Thats baseball for ya.

[Zvon]

Maybe Chavez can pull a Valentin.

But he sacs, and its a beaut.

Runner in scoring position, Reyes up.

Come on Jose.......

[Zvon]

shitcrapdagnabbitt.

Reyes pops out.

(Howard homers for the 2nd time to put the Phils up 2-1 in the 12th)

[Zvon]

ugh.
Matsui way out in front of that change up.

Ends up grounding out.

looks like its gonna be another one of those games.
(and another Pedro outing where he gets no win [or loss])

[Guest Edgy DC]

Needed a rally song last inning.

[Zvon]

sanchez in, and gives up a lead off hit.
Nice try by Nady on that line single.

Takin a chance there but he kept it in front of him.

[Zvon]

Uh-oh

Errors do something id rather not bring up right now.

Delgado errors the sac bunt and all safe.
1st & 2nd-no one out for Mil.

[Zvon]

Brewers sac em over the 2nd & 3rd.
One out.

Nice play by Castro waiting for a clear path to throw.

Come on Sanchez!
Shut em down!

[Guest Edgy DC]

I can't figure out today's strike zone.
