NLCS Game 1 I-G-T ... Mets vs St Louis

[A Boy Named Seo]

DP's are saving Glavine's ass so far, the first one dumb luck, this one just dumb.

Still have to question the Cards strategy swinging on so many first pitches (4 guys so far) knowing that Glavine can't go that deep in the game since he'll have to come back on short rest, and getting to the Mets pen is a pretty good idea anyway since both teams are playing 5 days in a row.

He's only at 41 pitches now through 4, and at this rate could go 7 and still be around 80 pitches.

="Rockin' Doc"] Maybe Floyd can do a Kirk Gibson impression as a pinch hitter some time later in the series.

Exactly.

You may be right Fungus,
as much as it pains me to say it.
If we go to the Big Show, Cliffy cant play.
Not the way he's looked last few games he was required to stand up on two legs in.
That sucks.

As far as Beltran throwing out Pojols-
all I can say is wowzers!


Come on Met bats.

"Another wide strike......"

Yikes.

We need some hits!

[Zvon]

Glavine is not getting this wide plate Weaver is.

I dont like that...not a bit.
0-0 thru 4

[Guest OlerudOwned]

That wide, wide (wide!) zone is helping Weaver get into a groove.

Me no likey.

[Valadius]

What a crappy ump.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Nevertheless, I advise all Mets to stop popping up immediately.

[Valadius]

Who shall save us? Endy Chavez will save us.

[Guest Hillbilly]

I can't believe Weaver is shuting them down like that. This must end!

[Valadius]

MAN did I call that!!

He just saved himself after that first mios step

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

ND!!!!

Aswesome!!!

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Give it up for Endy.

[Guest Hillbilly]

WTF Leave the pitcher on deck, Tommy!

[Guest Edgy DC]

It may be graceless to say this, because he's pitching a Helluva game, but Glavine seems fatter than he did last week against the Dodgers.

Four-pitch walk to Molina. I'm bad luck.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

That's twice now that fatassed catcher has cleared the pitcher.

[Valadius]

WOW, Weaver made the worst swing I've ever seen.

[Guest Hillbilly]

Let's mess up this punk!

[Valadius]

Weaver's angry now. Now he'll mess up.

[Guest Rotblatt]

Way to get out of it, Tommy.

Now let's score some runs!

[Guest Hillbilly]

The Mets hitters need to keep him angry!

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Valadius - "WOW, Weaver made the worst swing I've ever seen."

How quickly you forget Al Leiter.

[nymr83]

didn't Al hit one to the warning track to shut mike and the dog up (and win a charity bet)?

[Guest Rotblatt]

I really don't like this.

Weaver frankly doesn't look that good to me, but for some reason, we're not making good contact. It probably helps that every single curve ball he throws gets called a strike, regardless of where it is in the strike zone.

We REALLY need to figure him out and score a couple runs in the 6th.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

I recall a triple at Philadelphia for Al.

Big inning for Glavine coming up.

[Zvon]

rain?


It cant rain til we outscore em. :s

[Valadius]

I remember that triple too.

[Valadius]

STOP RAINING!!!

[A Boy Named Seo]

Weaver now at 10 consecutive scoreless innings in the postseason. Glavine trying for 11.

This game's zooming right along...

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Reyes shoulda dropped it for a DP.
