IGT Phillies at Mets, 05/23/2006

[Gwreck]

We get both. Another chance for Matsui to be the hero!

[Frayed Knot]

]They may do that anyway

Well they wouldn't push the winning run to second.
But now that it's already there there's no reason not to.

I didn't mean intentionally.

[Frayed Knot]

Good arm on Abreu in RF.
Don't know much about Victorino or the new guy in LF


On edit: ShitFuck!

[Willets Point]

Don't strike out, Kaz!

[Zvon]

UGH--Kaz cant get the ball past the mound.

We go to the 12th.

Damn, he heard me and grounded out instead.

[Zvon]

BELTRAN!
dont get thrown out now!

Willie--get out there and break that up!

Wow--that ump threw Carlos some slack there by not tossing him.

[Frayed Knot]

I forgot we still had Bradford in cold storage.


Nice play Kaz ... even though you can't hit.

[Zvon]

WOW!
Madsons going to bat.
I know he was a starter before they called up Hamels, but I still figured his night was over.

[Gwreck]

Phillies have 2 guys on the bench -- the backup catcher, plus a 33-year old infielder who's never played in a major league game.

[Guest Edgy DC]

So, I've got to ask... why has Soler been activated if they don't need him until tomorrow? We could maybe use Anderson Garcia before the night is over.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Bradford makes quick work of the Phillies in the top of the 12th.

Let's get a run and end this thing. It's getting late.

[Gwreck]

You know, I was wondering that myself, but figured it wouldn't have mattered tonight.

Of course, apparently both Gonzalz and Oliver are "available" tonight...

[Gwreck]

Plus, if the Phillies are going to roll over and play dead like they did against Bradford that inning, we really need to win this here.

I'm sure the reasoning was the chances of having to use more than 7 arms out of the bullpen were slim.

For what it's worth, I agree with you...they were just asking for this situation to occur.

[Frayed Knot]

Nice quick inning from Bradford but now we have to hit or him.
Kills the last position player AND brings in the last pitcher.

[Guest Edgy DC]

If they clear Lo Duca, Castro and his great big Olmec head can stay in the game. Do yourself and your team a favor and get a hit.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I've got to tip my cap... good job by Madson.

[Frayed Knot]

Doesn't really matter at this point.
You're down to one catcher or the other w/no subs left.

Yeah, but why not get the guy who hasn't just caught 12 innings in?

[nymr83]

Reyes just misses ending it on a homer and becoming the first hitter to get a "6" from me in the schaeffer this year

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Defused boom.

So close.

[Willets Point]

We really need to bring those fences in.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Shit, I thought he had that.

Motherfucker.

[Zvon]

UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I should have never mentioned the wall, Abreu and Burrell before.
Since I said that both have made catches at the wall.
SHEEEEEEE-IT!

[TransMonk]

Motherfather...hit it on the ground, Jose.

We go to the 13th. Damn you, Abreu...thought he was scared of walls.

[Guest Rotblatt]

I think this is the end for us--Utley's going to hit a home run.

[Frayed Knot]

Damn, the Braves-v-Pads are in the 7th inning and they're on the left coast!

[Guest Edgy DC]

Abreu braved a fear. Let's go, Ollie.
