IGT - 5/16 - Mets vs. Cards - NLCS Preview

[TransMonk]

Beautiful barehand grab by Wright to throw out Eckstein.

We head to the 8th.

[Zvon]

Wright with the lead off double.
Lets get some insurance.

Id really like Glavine to get the win here tonight.

[Zvon]

Floyd takes one for the team.

1st & 2nd.
0 out.

[Zvon]

Nady bunts--wow, and errors kill as Luna bobbles it and Wright comes around to score.

I like.

[Willets Point]

Hey Luna, you're fired!

[TransMonk]

Error on Pujols fielding Nady's sac bunt...that's right NADY's sac bunt.

Mets up 5-3 no outs in the 8th.

[DocTee]

Hard for Glavine to get the win when he was lifted after 6.

I'm Garry Templeton--charter member of the superfluous letter team-- "if I ain't startin, i ain't departin'"--

[TransMonk]

Glavine is still the pitcher of record.

[Gwreck]

Matsui bunts 'em over, c'mon Old Man of the Sea!

[TransMonk]

There are about 700 drunken fans left at New Busch...they are obnoxious.

Is he not in line for this decision?


Old man river provides more insurance with an RBI single.
Mets up 6-3

[DocTee]

How many drunken posters are left at the CPF??

[TransMonk]

I wouldn't mind batting around a couple of times this inning...make those umps wish they had called the game.

[Willets Point]

[Zvon]

wow!
Pujols is getting hurt all over the field.
He slips on the ondeck circle!

[TransMonk]

WOW!!!!

He hit hard!!!

[Willets Point]

OWWWWWWW!

I hope he's okay.

On replay I see that at least he didn't hit his head.

[Zvon]

Reyes drives one in!
7-3.
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAbaby

[Guest Rotblatt]

I'm starting to like rain delays . . .

Apparently so-- I stand corrected.

HaHaHa--i agree 100%

[Zvon]

Beltran keeps it goin with a bloop single.

Franco scores-8-3.

[Gwreck]

Gonna be Julio time real soon.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

I did some paper work for the office and decided to check in before going to bed. This was worth staying up for. There should be some sweet dreams tonight.

[Zvon]

Sanchez comes on and pitches a perfect 8th.

Pujols is OH (my ass) for four.

[Zvon]

Okay--3 outs 2 go.

Julio will get the 9th.

[Willets Point]

Here's Julio. What the mama saw was against the law!

[Zvon]

..well mama looked down and spit on the ground every time his name is mentioned.......


Julio may not last a third of an inning, as the 1st two Cards reach.

Oliver and Wagner are up in the pen.

[Zvon]

Julio gets an out.
YAY!

[Zvon]

Julio gets Luna to pop out foul to Delgado.
Nice.
