IGT 09/19, Fish at Mets (the hangover game)

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Tucker's RBI gives the Mets a 3-2 lead.

Is Wagner in shape to go for a save?

[metirish]

Wagner is fine,warming up Gary said.

[Valadius]

Pistachio is hitting for Dumbo with the bases loaded, one out.

[Valadius]

Pistachio strikes out, Thugmasta due up.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Ricky Ledee is a waste of a roster space. Even with an expanded roster.

Ricky Ledee is a waste of Oxygen.

We win with the B squad. Awesome.

[Guest KC]

Thank god for a quick game and another win ... I might sleep until Thursday
and skip tomorrow's action.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

You won't want to miss tomorrow's game. Rumor is Omar is going to bus in the Binghamton Mets to take on the Marlins.

[metirish]

So does Tucker make the post-season roster?, he's a good bat of the bench.

[Guest ScarletKnight41]

Tucker is better than Ledee, for sure.

Hating on a guy the day after Thank You Day. Wow.

Anderson Hernandez had seven total bases in his first 71 at-bats. He had five in three at-bats today.

HIs first career homer. His first RBI. His first two-hit game. His first extra-base freakin' hit. Only his second fuckinfreakin' walk. Did he take a pill or something?

[Gwreck]

="metirish"]Today would have been Bob Murphy's birthday,his widow and daughter are at the game.....thanks to gary for the info.

Indeed. They were welcomed by name and shown on the Diamondvision between the 3rd (?) and 4th innings. They then cut to some nice images of Bob and some of his famous calls ('73 clincher, '86 WS victory, etc.) Nice tribute.

[Willets Point]

Should have started this lineup against the Pirates.

[RealityChuck]

My favorite tidbit: The last time Julio Franco started at third base, the guy playing to shortstop next to him hadn't even been born.

[MFS62]

If Glavine had lost the game 2-0 or 2-1, he could have strangled the life out of Willie and a jury of Mets fans would have found him not guilty on grounds of Justifiable Homicide.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I imagine Glavine was perfectly content with the lineup out there, as were the fans.

[Guest Yancy Street Gang]

Glavine's job last night was to tune up for the NLDS. Not to pad his career win total. If he lost and was angry about it, he would have been wise to keep it to himself. I'm sure few Mets fans would have sided with him if he had exhibited such selfishness.

[Frayed Knot]

Main two things I wanted to see from last night were good games from Glavine (regardless of W/L) and Milledge.
