IGT Retro Sunday Afternoon 8-20-2006

[Guest OlerudOwned]

C'mon Lastings. You don't wanna be this guy, do you?

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Back at bat, Lastings pops up to strand El Duque at third and end the inning.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

The leadoff walk is erased by DeFelice's on target throw to second.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

The caught stealing is extra important - Milledge couldn't make the catch and there's a ground rule double with two outs.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

In what is likely El Duque's final pitch of the day, he strikes out the batter to end the 6th.

Whew!

[Guest KC]

I might just start calling El Duque, but not yet. Thank god for Orlando this
season the way things panned out.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

I keep on forgetting he has a real name.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

The other one! Beltran homers to give the Mets a 2-0 lead!

Hah!

[Guest Edgy DC]

Bradford's role is seriously expanding these days.

Hernandez, man. What a savior.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

A pitchers best friend ends the 7th for Bradford. Still 2-0.

Get up and stretch!

[Guest Edgy DC]

Woodward turns two to end the inning.

Or, as Cleon sees it, he butchers another one.

[Guest KC]

C'e na luna mezza'o mare
Mammamiam'ho maritari
Figlia mia a cu t'ho dare?
Mama mia penscitu
Se ti piglia lu pisciaolo
Tssu vai, issu viene
Sempre lu peace a muno tiene
Se c'in gappa la fantasia ti pomperia figgiuzza mia
La lario la pisci fritt'e baccala
Oeh cumpa, na pompina ci haggia catta
Cenata o cumma ca mi voglio marita
Dammi na vagliotta ca mi voglio marita HEY

So, KC, which place in Little Italy did you eat at last night?

Gotta love that Joe Table is still earning a major-league paycheck.

[stevejrogers]

Speaking of which, has anyone noticed that Mr. Met has only been wearing his snow white uni with blue cap only this year? Seems like everytime I go!

I was really hoping they'd make a nifty throwback for the Big Baseball Head for the weekend

[Guest KC]

Il Palazzo, 62 - I guess I should report to the restaurant thread.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Aaron pulled a slider on Jamey Carroll.

Man, he's been wicked. He could be the key to this whole thing before it's over.

[MFS62]

Heilmann again? Didn't he pitch two innings yesterday?
Didn't Willie learn anything from last year when he wore out RHernandez by pitching him four and five days in a row?

Well, at least we know that moving Aaron into the rotation doesn't look like its on Willie's agenda.

Later

[metirish]

But that's Heilmans inning now, I think Willie has shown us and him that.

[Zvon]

[Guest KC]

Wags coming in for the ninth - anyone nervous? It's probably my imagination
but I think he's ruined a couple of the Sunday IGT's this year.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Listening to Ron describe Chuck E Cheese's to Gary and Keith was hysterical.

[stevejrogers]

I have a decent shot of Billy running in, hopefully I'll get it put up in a nice size on photobucket, and Billy did not do his thing behind the mound though.

BTW, was it me, or did the crowd just pull a Dodger Stadium last night? The joint was rocking for most of the game, but when Milledge hit the HR and Wagner came in, it sounded like 1996, not 1986 or 2006

[stevejrogers]

I'll tell you though, its been a long while, October 2000 to be exact, since I've tried to navigate such a large sea of humanity in the Upper Deck's walkways.

And you know, I liked it! =

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Wagner just blew Holliday off the field.

[stevejrogers]

GAME OVER!

Good like

[Guest KC]

Colorado, you're dismissed - thank you for visiting.
