IGT 05/29, Barry to Shea (sorta)

[seawolf17]

Sure, Tim Lincecum. you've pitched in the big leagues before. But this is Shea Stadium, bitch.

[bmfc1]

It's wonderful to have the Mets on ESPN because that means HD, but it also means the dopey ramblings of Rick Sutcliffe, the incoherency of Dusty Baker, and the inane stories of the otherwise lovely Erin Andrews. Plus, as with every "out of town" broadcast, it means the same story lines: Reyes is fast; Wright is popular; the Mets have a good lineup; Franco is old.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Wow, didn't think that was gone coming off the bat.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

The ball is just flying out of Shea tonight. Damnit.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Leaving Perez in to cough up the lead in the seventh?

Come on, Willie, that's Heilman's job!

[Willets Point]

Oh, Ollie....

[bmfc1]

Come on Oliver, get this guy.

[seawolf17]

And an appearance from Fatheaded Steve Trachsel means Ollie's done for the night.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

You knew they'd live to regret not getting Beltran in from 2nd with 1 out.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Meanwhile in Milwaukee, the Brewers plate two runs in the bottom of the third inning to tie the Braves at three. They have the bases loaded with 2 outs against Smoltz and are looking to take the lead. Unfortunately, the pitcher Ben Sheets is up and Smoltz quickly strikes him out on three pitches to end the inning and preserve the tie.

[Guest Edgy DC]

One more post by Rockin' and I can stop confusing him with Dickshot.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Way to go, Wagner.

Get him a win, Delgado.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Let's make Billy the Kid a winner in the bottom of the ninth.

I keep getting myself confused with JD.

[Guest Edgy DC]

For fifty Dickshot posts, you're all alone.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Lots of ugly looking Right Fielding today.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Wright went into his home run trot a little too early.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Do it again, Damion.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

C'mon Franco. Let's make a story you can tell your grandkids 40 or so years months from now.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I don't blame Lewis there. He did a good job getting back.

Your team, your time, Julio.

="Edgy DC"]Gary Cohen: "If Ozzie Smith's in the Hall of Fame, Omar Vizquel's in the Hall of Fame." Edgy DC: "I don't necessarily agree."

Omar Vizquel: "Suck it."

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

That play was hotter than Pearly that one time at band camp.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Omar's got my vote.

Frandsen's got my vote also and I don't even know who he was. What a play.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Somehow, when Willie sends our primary pinch hitter up with the game on the line and he's hitting under .200, it just doesn't inspire much confidence.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

I don't think Schoeneweis wanted any part of parts. Can't say I blame him. I didn't like that much up at all.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Uh oheneweis.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

I like that one, OO. Sad, but true.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Schoeneweis just isn't getting it done

[Guest Edgy DC]

I've watched Aurelia tonight, and he seems to start too early to compensate for a slower bat. Heilman should be able to handle him unless he guesses change at the right time.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I'll take it.

Now Johnson gets his licks.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

If my memory serves, Russ Ortiz is a Benson Buncher.

Give 'em hell, Ben.
