[Guest Kid Carsey]

Wright with a 7th inning one out triple ...

Moises with third hit of game knocks him in ...

Oi. That high fly with a man on in the ninth made my heart skip.

[Elster88]

Does Wright think too much when he throws the ball in the ninth?

Does Wagner frighten anyone else besides me?

I meant to ask this the other day,is it true that Heilman got booed during the opening day introductions?

A bone to pick with the WFAN/Rose/McCarthy tonight... I know that whole telethon thing is for a good cause and all, but you should NOT have one of the sponsors on during a met game if you're going to talk to him as if this were a spring training game and ignore the action on the field, filling in later with "oh by the way Rowand singled", the worst was when i could hear a cheer from the crowd for a good defensive play yet it took at least a full 10 seconds for Rose to tell us what happened. This isn't spring training and it isn't television (i cant see what happening if you don't tell me.)
if having this guy on is soooo important how bout giving up one of your precious commercial breaks between innings and staying with the anouncers through that to talk to him?

Good that Glavine is getting some wins early here, if only that it takes the drama out of getting his 10 wins and lessens the chances that #300 will become an issue.

[Willets Point]

I've got Glavine penciled in for 30 wins easy.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

That was Eddie C and McCarthy. I think Howie's busy with hockey.

Mix of good and bad tonight, I was more pessimisstic early than I shoulda been but Glavine really rebounded well.

In the end we're where we are so far because the defense has been super and Reyes the best I've ever seen him.

Today was my little girls "sweet 16th". So I spent the evening celebrating however her heart desired. As a result, I was blissfully unaware of the happenings at Shea.

I read through this IGT in order to learn the fate of the Mets. Though this was far from our most comprehensive IGT, I enjoyed it nonetheless. What can i say, I'm a sucker for happy endings.
