Couldn't have been.
Pitchers, once announced, have to stay in the game for at least one out/batter.



Before we all get excited over Looper, he pitched 3 innings of 1-hit ball in game 3 (a Beltran HR) and did have a reasonably good '04 season here.

[Zvon]

Nice try Spazzio!

="Valadius"]LOOPER!!!!!!!!

Ha.
This entire card was designed around getting Looper in there.
lol.

[Guest KC]

I guess that's why.

Valadius Oct 18 2006 10:34 PM

My dad just called me. He's at the game!!! He's in the second or third row behind the plate in a white shirt, next to his friend Gerry Martire in a blue shirt and white hat. I can see him right above the FOX score line thing across the top of the screen.

SteveJRogers Oct 18 2006 11:02 PM No, on the Mets its Charlie Samuels' call, usually he's been a non-pinstripper during the non-summer months because of some issue Rick Peterson has with jacket wearing or some thing, and the jacket clashes with the all blueness of the pinstripe set metsguyinmichigan Oct 18 2006 11:03 PM Zvon wrote: ........or how about black with white pinstripes?

Looked like he just won a game of Strat-o-matic or something---not a win or go home playoff game. Damn--I like that guy. What a job. Valadius Oct 19 2006 12:14 AM Gary did the radio call on the Reyes homer. Gwreck Oct 19 2006 01:09 AM Great fun at Shea tonight. Best crowd of the postseason so far. First pitch was Matt Dillon. Maybe they'll use Tim Robbins tomorrow? Was disappointed that Willie didn't double switch when he brought Wagner in. Pitcher's spot wsa due up first in the bottom of the 9th. He should've taken Valentin out and switched in Anderson Hernandez, our best defensive infielder (except perhaps Reyes). Bradford again got up in a real hurry in the 5th when Maine was facing Spiezio. If they were going to bring him in to face Pujols if a runner was on, they should've been prepared a lot quicker -- Bradford didn't start throwing until after Eckstein was retired. It's not like they didn't know who was batting next. Strange. Reyes took the curtain call, as the Jose-Jose-Jose-Jose chant continued long after the homer. Curtain call for a solo homer in the 1st was a risky proposition (ie. inviting a pitch to the rear end), I thought. Let's go Mets!

Rockin' Doc Oct 19 2006 07:55 AM Rotblatt - "Thanks for the effort, Rockin' Doc, but in my heart of hearts, I know it's all about my fledgling beard. And the fact that I drank more beer tonight." Lucky beards, outfits, beers, and TV's. The Mets can never have too much good karma and support from their fans. Good work all. Gwreck Oct 19 2006 08:27 AM ="Iubitul"]Why? If the Cards score enough to make the Mets bat in the ninth, Wagner isn't pitching another inning any way... Yes, but my thought was that if the Cards scored enough to tie/lead, Wagner would've been pulled before that happened and we'd have burned him and another reliever getting there. Gwreck Oct 19 2006 08:33 AM P.S. (and I know it was mentioned very early in the thread) Blue Hats + Pinstripes = Results Speak for Themselves! Are you listening, Charlie Samuels?

Curtain call for a solo homer in the 1st was a risky proposition (ie. inviting a pitch to the rear end), I thought. I doubt that. It's not the player that initiated it; it was the fans. They're the ones who pay the salaries, so if they want a curtain call, why blame the player for giving them that? But, I do admit, it was tempting fate. MFS62 Oct 19 2006 09:32 AM So Taguchi is a pain in the rosy red rectum. Is there some way the Mets can get his Green Card pulled before tonight's game? He may get the start in left against the lefty starter. I hope the Mets have an 11 run lead each time he comes to bat. Later

My dad just called me. He's at the game!!! He's in the second or third row behind the plate in a white shirt, next to his friend Gerry Martire in a blue shirt and white hat. I can see him right above the FOX score line thing across the top of the screen.

I think that's why people were ticked. he hid his injury and it cost us all year. THen again, if he is still an effective closer, why isn't he filling Izzy's role? And why did he lose the role on the Marlins?

Looked like he just won a game of Strat-o-matic or something---not a win or go home playoff game. Damn--I like that guy. What a job. Valadius Oct 19 2006 12:14 AM Gary did the radio call on the Reyes homer. Gwreck Oct 19 2006 01:09 AM Great fun at Shea tonight. Best crowd of the postseason so far. First pitch was Matt Dillon. Maybe they'll use Tim Robbins tomorrow? Was disappointed that Willie didn't double switch when he brought Wagner in. Pitcher's spot wsa due up first in the bottom of the 9th. He should've taken Valentin out and switched in Anderson Hernandez, our best defensive infielder (except perhaps Reyes). Bradford again got up in a real hurry in the 5th when Maine was facing Spiezio. If they were going to bring him in to face Pujols if a runner was on, they should've been prepared a lot quicker -- Bradford didn't start throwing until after Eckstein was retired. It's not like they didn't know who was batting next. Strange. Reyes took the curtain call, as the Jose-Jose-Jose-Jose chant continued long after the homer. Curtain call for a solo homer in the 1st was a risky proposition (ie. inviting a pitch to the rear end), I thought. Let's go Mets!

Lucky beards, outfits, beers, and TV's. The Mets can never have too much good karma and support from their fans. Good work all. Gwreck Oct 19 2006 08:27 AM ="Iubitul"]Why? If the Cards score enough to make the Mets bat in the ninth, Wagner isn't pitching another inning any way... Yes, but my thought was that if the Cards scored enough to tie/lead, Wagner would've been pulled before that happened and we'd have burned him and another reliever getting there. Gwreck Oct 19 2006 08:33 AM P.S. (and I know it was mentioned very early in the thread) Blue Hats + Pinstripes = Results Speak for Themselves! Are you listening, Charlie Samuels?

They're the ones who pay the salaries, so if they want a curtain call, why blame the player for giving them that? But, I do admit, it was tempting fate. MFS62 Oct 19 2006 09:32 AM So Taguchi is a pain in the rosy red rectum. Is there some way the Mets can get his Green Card pulled before tonight's game? He may get the start in left against the lefty starter. I hope the Mets have an 11 run lead each time he comes to bat. Later

The Mets have played much better in this NLCS when I have been watching the action on the TV in the master bedroom upstairs. Most of the time, when I have ventured to other rooms to watch the games, the Mets play usually started to deteriorate and fall apart. So unfortunately, I didn't get to enjoy this game online with all of you, because I was watching on my "lucky TV". I know where I will be tomorrow night.

Just saw Maine in a post game interview. The kids as kool as a cucumber. Looked like he just won a game of Strat-o-matic or something---not a win or go home playoff game. Damn--I like that guy. What a job.

Valadius Oct 19 2006 12:14 AM

Gary did the radio call on the Reyes homer.

Gwreck Oct 19 2006 01:09 AM

Great fun at Shea tonight. Best crowd of the postseason so far. First pitch was Matt Dillon. Maybe they'll use Tim Robbins tomorrow? Was disappointed that Willie didn't double switch when he brought Wagner in. Pitcher's spot wsa due up first in the bottom of the 9th. He should've taken Valentin out and switched in Anderson Hernandez, our best defensive infielder (except perhaps Reyes). Bradford again got up in a real hurry in the 5th when Maine was facing Spiezio. If they were going to bring him in to face Pujols if a runner was on, they should've been prepared a lot quicker -- Bradford didn't start throwing until after Eckstein was retired. It's not like they didn't know who was batting next. Strange. Reyes took the curtain call, as the Jose-Jose-Jose-Jose chant continued long after the homer. Curtain call for a solo homer in the 1st was a risky proposition (ie. inviting a pitch to the rear end), I thought. Let's go Mets!

If the Cards score enough to make the Mets bat in the ninth, Wagner isn't pitching another inning any way...

I thought it was great - With the way La Genius has been running his mouth, I felt the Mets needed to get their swagger back.

Rotblatt - "Thanks for the effort, Rockin' Doc, but in my heart of hearts, I know it's all about my fledgling beard. And the fact that I drank more beer tonight." Lucky beards, outfits, beers, and TV's. The Mets can never have too much good karma and support from their fans. Good work all.

Gwreck Oct 19 2006 08:27 AM

="Iubitul"]Why? If the Cards score enough to make the Mets bat in the ninth, Wagner isn't pitching another inning any way... Yes, but my thought was that if the Cards scored enough to tie/lead, Wagner would've been pulled before that happened and we'd have burned him and another reliever getting there.

P.S. (and I know it was mentioned very early in the thread) Blue Hats + Pinstripes = Results Speak for Themselves! Are you listening, Charlie Samuels?

They're the ones who pay the salaries, so if they want a curtain call, why blame the player for giving them that? But, I do admit, it was tempting fate.

MFS62 Oct 19 2006 09:32 AM

So Taguchi is a pain in the rosy red rectum. Is there some way the Mets can get his Green Card pulled before tonight's game? He may get the start in left against the lefty starter. I hope the Mets have an 11 run lead each time he comes to bat. Later

[Valadius]
