[Centerfield]

I don't think I know the Jays.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

OMG CF, was just gonna post the same thing.

We need EEE(Emergency Enemy Education).

I don't got the freedom to try though!

[Gwreck]

Gimme 10-15 minutes...

[nymr83]

this is a 7:07 start thanks to Canadians being idiots with clocks.

[Guest Edgy DC]

As the Mets threaten in the first, I can't recall the last time I've seen fake turf cutouts around the bases.

[Guest Edgy DC]

This room is dead.

Ugly passed ball on Molina. Catching with his Gold Glove on today.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Nady puts the Mets ahead with a ground triple.

Oh... this is what turfball is like.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Molina just popped one down the right field line and barely made it to first.

No speed demon, he.

[Gwreck]

Wright absolutely crushed that one for the 3-run



Still, with that Blue Jays lineup I'd like to have a few more runs for the lead.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

Lastings hit his third homer a little while ago to make it 5-0.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

TiVo just kicked in. I'll watch the rest of the game in the morning.

[Gwreck]

Milledge having a good game with a second nice catch in the OF.

For posterity:

Top of the 7th, Milledge walk, Reyes grounds out, Milledge forced at second.

LoDuca hits the ball, one hop off the wall and Reyes scores. LoDuca rounds second and the ball arrives at third before LoDuca even gets to the sliding pit. He turns and jogs off the field before he can be tagged out. Laughing, he goes back for the tag.

[Gwreck]

Holy shit. Duaner throws a ball about 2 feet outside and is hurt.

[MFS62]

It looked like he was holding his arm/elbow, but Yahoo sports is saying its the shoulder.
Neither good.

Mr. Owens to the lobby phone.

Later

[nymr83]

better the shoulder than the elbow i think.
..paging Mr. Owens...

[Guest KC]

Mets win 6-1. The win sets a team record with nine straight road wins.

[Gwreck]

Put it in the books.

Duaner had better be OK!

[MFS62]

Just remembered - didn't someone say that they had created a special K-Boom for Lastings?
Maybe they'll add it to this thread tomorrow.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Nice game. I'm worried about Sanchez, though. Maybe his elbow?

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

MK said that Sanchez had numbness in his hand. I wonder if that's a result of his being hit by a pitch the other day.

[soupcan]

I'm going with 'blood clot/aneuryism' for $400 Alex.

[Zvon]

="soupcan"]I'm going with 'blood clot/aneuryism' for $400 Alex.

Alex: Who was removed from a New York Mets baseball game
in 2006 after throwing a pitch, dispite the fact that he did not
suffer from this ailment?
_____________________________________________
Note by Z:::Actually, for all I know he may have.
Watching the highlights just now they said he had a tingling sensation in his hand on the release of the pitch.
He has been sent back to NY for observation and it was said that Sanchez stated that his hand felt fine a short time later.

And we all have to agree, we need Sanchez doin what he does, so I also hope this was just a flukey one time occurance. Like a pinched nerve or something.

This was hilarious. He was running to third and then just turned away heading off the field, like-why even continue? The barbing in the dugout afterwards was pretty funny too.

Nope--that would be tempting fate even further. Ya gotta be iNdAhOuSe to go kaboom, and I wasnt. Woe is me.
He'll have to go yard again, and hopefully he stays up and does just that.
I read the comments in the other IGT and I have to tell ya - Ive had a bad feeling about that Wags graphic
since the Yankee game and even tho quite a bit of work went into that, Im gonna shelf it.
The silent treatment Milledge got in the dugout was pretty funny too.
Also, nice roundabout catch by the rook at the wall.


Good game- Wright is just -------I dont got the words.
Im just so glad he's a New York Met.
Galvine wins #11!
LoDuca's got wood!
