Damn!!!

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

I was even drinking Ruerto Rican rum. You would think Delgado would have shown a little greater appreciatioin.

[Zvon]

Gah---we get to the BabyBearPen and get afew on with Delgado-
right where we want em-
and he slaps into a DP.

Ruerto Rican...I think Doc has been drinking a bit too much rum already. j/k

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

So far this season, Delgado is not really at the top of my wish list in such situations. He just has never really got going this year.

[Batty31]

But when he does finally get going, he'll be on fire for awhile. Hopefully that will be sooner than later...

[Frayed Knot]

Did Lou really think Willie WASN'T going to respond to Daryle Ward ph-ing with a LHP?
Cubbies are going to run out of both bench & pen pretty soon.

Batty -"But when he does finally get going, he'll be on fire for awhile."

I sure hope your right.

He usually does but I was hoping his last few games was the beginning of that.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Hey Pedro, throw a damn strike.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Nice play by Easley. It's amazing how much more ground infielders cover when the ball comes up for them as opposed to hugging the turf.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Time to put an end to this thing. The Mets have Easley, a pinch hitter (likely), and Reyes due up.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Reyes with a two out single.

Run Reyes, run!

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Jose Reyes is so fast that he created a wind tunnel which caused Blanco's throw to sail errantly.

[Zvon]

And a big steal of 2nd.
See that 2nd baseman try and deek Reyes?

Endy draws the walk.
1st and 2nd, 2 out, Beltran up.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Speed kills baby. Reyes goes, the Cubs pitch out, and Blanco nearly throws it into center. I'm not sure he could have got Reyes even with a good throw, Jose had a huge lead and a great jump.

Endy walks. So it falls to Beltran to send the faithful home happy.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Feel insulted, Carlos. Get angry. Take it out on the ball.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Damn, they walk Beltran. The sacks are drunk with Mets and Delgado has a chance once again.

[Zvon]

Come on Delagado--bring it home.

[Batty31]

Reyes needs to keep dancing on the third base line...

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Taking the term "walk off" quite literally.

[Batty31]

BALL 4...METS WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Zvon]

HA!

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Great at bat for Delgado. He earns a bases loaded walk by fouling off 4 or 5 pitches.

Mets win 5-4.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Never underestimate the power of Ruerto Rican rum!

[Zvon]

almost anti-climactic...but Ill take it.
