IGT 99: 7/24/06 - vs. Cubbies - Trachsel vs. Maddux

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Pierre's check swing contact becomes the second out.

[Zvon]

="SteveJRogers"]Met Offense! UNITE AND ASSEMBLE!

that really is excellent.
Great rally cry thingy.

[TransMonk]

I voted no...I came in right as the top of the 1st inning was ending.

Figured I'd go with the odds. No reflection on our team. Mostly, I was annoyed at being asked.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

It turns out that Pierre was automatically out for hitting the ball twice.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Mr. Wright tags out Perez for the third out

[stevejrogers]

Can't send stuff from my PC on here, PM your address and I'll see what I can do. Damn, I don't know why Photobucket couldn't take the new smaller version of it

[Zvon]

excellent pictures too.

Trachsel has to settle down.
34 pitches thru 2.
An okay second inning for him.

3-3, Mets

Just having a change of pace. I don't imagine it'll catch on. Gotta roll with the punches.

[stevejrogers]

Yeah, not bad from the Loge reserve with a flood of people walking in front of me every other pitch!

Ha!
How dare you......
The odds?
Maddux has been losing and the Cubs suck,lol.
Trax has been pitching well.

LETS GO METS! (I drown out your negativity)

[stevejrogers]

Hey, it finally shrunk!

Uh, my 2006 Met Offense pic in Photobucket that is!

Yeah, lets hope this sucker gets posted in some games 3 months from now!

[Elster88]

I may have been attributing some of Ronnie's comments to Keith.

[metirish]

As has been noted before they sound very alike.

[stevejrogers]

Thinking about a Bullpen one as well, but considering rumors swirling, better wait a week (or two depending on the waiver month period)

OE: Hey, I'm the McKnight-Mare!

[metirish]

Gary tells us that Maddux is making his 64th career start against the Mets....what's the record?

[metirish]

These three guys are bloody great together in the booth.

[Elster88]

We did this last year I think with the most-of trivia threads. I can't remember the exact numbers.

[metirish]

I swear these lads are cracking me up with all the talk about how to wear uni socks and stirrups.....and now Keith is going on about how mad he was that Koo got his #17 last year.....very funny

[Elster88]

We're pretty fortunate that the ex-ballplayers from the Mets were and are well-spoken intelligent individuals.

[Elster88]

Nady't double hit the top of the wall in almost dead-center.

If Floyd and Delgado get hot, and Wright, Beltran, Reyes, and Lo Duca play at this pace. And Nady does what he's been doing...we could put Kaz back at second and this team would be disgusting.

[Zvon]

So the Mets take the lead on back to back doubles by Floyd and Nady-

4-3

*Z shakes his fist at Transmonk*
Ya gotta believe man!!!!
Ya gotta believe!!!

[metirish]

Cubs take the lead on a monster shot form Ramirez......bollox.

[Zvon]

crapcakes.

Just when I thought Trax was settling down.

How many homers has that Ramirez guy hit this last week?
YOW!

I Still Believe~The Call

[metirish]

Jones goes deep and it's 6 to 4 Cubs....

[Elster88]

Nevin's double was the quintessential excuse-me grounder over the first base bag.

[Willets Point]

U - G - L - Y
You ain't got no alibi!

This game is turning ugly.

[metirish]

Look like another tough night for the pen.

[Elster88]

Strong bats in this Met lineup. Will be needed.
