IGT #108 - Mets at Brewers, 8/2/07

[Guest Edgy DC]

I remember a rare bat-around inning in the late seventies in which Doug Flynn hit the Mets first ItPHR at Shea since the sixties.

Schoen-not-on-ice as he is warming in the pen and looks to be entering the game...

Dude - I was at that game!

If I'm remembering correctly it was fireworks night and it was a 10-run inning.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Is Newhan good enough in the outfield to be worth using as a defensive replacement for Alou or Easley?

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Castillo chooses another RBI situation to pop out to an infielder.

By the way, Phillies, let's see you light up the Cubs bullpen a little bit today. I'd love a 13-12 finish.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I am Luis Castillo
My bat is mucho frillo
Right now I admit
I'd scarce get a hit
Off a 50-year-old Matt Keough

Kevin Mench, one of the two biggest heads in baseball.

Bonus points if you can name the other.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Does Bochy count?

[Guest Edgy DC]

Tough spot to bring Sosa in.

This has Joe Smith written all over it.

OH, JOE!

[seawolf17]

Bochy's the one. Nice.

Come on, Jorge.

Foul pop up to Delgado gets the Mets out of the inning.

Whew!

[Guest Edgy DC]

Hooray!

[seawolf17]

Fuckin' cheating hot dog.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Sorry? Who?

Me llamo Castillo, Luis

I canno' heet the high cheese

I was watching the game last night on TV and the Mrs. chimes in, "Cory Hart, NOT good looking". So I watch this mutha some more and I KNOW he looks like someboby. It just clicked. A slimmed down and cleaned-up Randall "Tex" Cobb.

[G-Fafif]

Anybody know if the Mets have ever had three inside-the-park practitioners (who've done it for them) on their roster at the same time? Anderson, Reyes, now the man Willie Randolph calls Damon Easily.

[Guest Edgy DC]

A downside of Ramon Castro, striking out with a duck at third and less than two out.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

2 run bingle for bLastings.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Just guessing here: Mookie, HoJo, Darryl?

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

SoSo ground-rule double!

[seawolf17]

Jorge Sosa, batsman.

[Benjamin Grimm]

And a ground-rule double by... SOSA!

8-3 Mets.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Unsurpassed-ings!

[metirish]

Brewers fans must hate seen the Mets

Dude can hit. I don't think, next time we need an emergency pinch-hitter, Glavine should be so automatic. Sosa and Perez got strokes.

[seawolf17]

Hey, Brian Shouse! I remember Shouse when was a Rochester Red Wing back in '97. Fireballing lefty "closer of the future" type guy who's had a modicum of success bouncing back and forth from AAA.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Well, he's not breaking 82, so that future isn't looking so bright.
