Time to put the hammer on Astros WC hopes.

[Guest SwitchHitter]

What WC hopes? These must be different Astros you're talking about.

[Guest SwitchHitter]

1-2-3 inning for Wandy.

[TransMonk]

What is Wandy short for?

I guess DoubleyouRod just doesn't roll off the tongue like the other Rods.

[Guest KC]

I have to admit I'm a tad nervous wondering what Tommy has.

[Guest SwitchHitter]

Baseball-reference says that his name is Wandy E. Rodriguez. I've never heard that it's short for anything.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Great to have you stop by Annie. You have been away too much this season.

[Guest KC]

Cool avatar, Annie.

Sounds like there's a bunch of Mets fans in the building.

GEEZ KC, for a moment there I thought Tommy left the game or failed to start the game.

=

[Guest KC]

I shoulda added ... got left in the tank.

Keith and Gary report that the medicine/baby aspirin protocol has returned the feeling to Glavine's finger.

2-0 Mets in the second when Endy's speed induced a wild throwing error that let two runners score.

Meanwhile, Glavine has three strikeouts through the first two innings.

[Guest SwitchHitter]

He's doin' it so far.

[metirish]

Mets up two zip and they shouldn't be,Glavine looking good early.

[TransMonk]

Why shouldn't they be?

[Guest SwitchHitter]

Because they're Mets. :-P

Seriously, Adam Everett made a throwing error that led to the runs scoring.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Endy should have been out at first, but the wild throw allowed the two runners on base to score.

[Guest SwitchHitter]

Stupid fans

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Vamos Carloses! Delgado knocks in Beltran to give the Mets a 3-0 lead.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

The leadoff single in the bottom of the third is erased by the pitcher's best friend.

[metirish]

Glavine looks just fine, seven good innings tonight would be great.

[metirish]

My God, Gary tells us that Wandy used to named Endy Cabraha(sp) so he would appear 3 years younger......it changed back to Wandy 3 years ago.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Some less than fabulous defense helped put Glavine in a jam in the 4th. 1 run in, runners on first and second, 1 out.

[Guest SwitchHitter]

And he walks in a run.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Fuck! Glavine just walks in a run.

Bases loaded, one out

[metirish]

Bases loaded walks will kill ya...they score everytime.

[Guest SwitchHitter]

Big Q!

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Damn! A 2-run single gives Houston a 4-3 lead

[Guest cooby]

lol...Annie's gonna make this IGT interesting

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

5-3 on a fucking wild pitch
