IGT 8/3/07 Old School Met-Cub Day Game

[Guest Kid Carsey]

There is no Mrs. Met, she's Lady Met.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

Cohen commenting on how large the bat boy of the Mets is. He stopped
short of saying he is monstrously huge even though I know wanted to.

Gotay with a one out double after a nice long AB.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Bunt not, but swing ye mighty Mets.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Easley over Castillo as the pinch-hitter against a rightie.

[Centerfield]

I'd walk Reyes here and pitch to Newhan.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

We should have a contest to expand on bifl.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

So would Lou, cf

[nymr83]

pretty obvious move. i have no idea why it isnt Gotay 2nd newhan 8th....then again theres no reason for newhan to be starting over milledge in the first place.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

Newhan with a nice grap in LF. Nice grab, but kinda making up for a bad jump.

[nymr83]

3-2 Mets on a Delgado double! (goes to 3rd on a throw home)

[Guest Kid Carsey]

Hotdiggity, Wright walks (thanks, blue) and Delgado doubles him in bing
bang boom it's 3-2 with no outs!

[bmfc1]

Cohen's extra happy--the sooner the game ends, the sooner he begins a rare in-season weekend off.

[Centerfield]

Shoulda walked him a 5th time.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

Marlon fails to get the run home from third with an ugly AB.

[bmfc1]

Milledge should go in for D in the 9th, but where? He's an upgrade at any position.

[Centerfield]

Come on Green. Pick them up.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

Castro looks just as ugly resulting in a K for out number two.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

Green rbi double

[Centerfield]

Mets make me happy.

[Centerfield]

Mets make me nervous. Um. Come on Billy.

[Centerfield]

Double play!

[Willets Point]

Just tuned in.

[Centerfield]

Put it in the books!

Nice win Mets.

[Willets Point]

I tuned in for the last out of a win. Nice.

All the joy, none of the agita.

[DocTee]

Great win. I had this one pencilled in as a loss after seeing the lineups. On the road, against a first-place team that has thier ace (bona fide) on the hill and we run out Newhan, Marlon, Gotay and Castro. This is a steal.

[nymr83]

another nice win, especially with this crap lineup

Color me pleased when we win with this lineup in a game started by C. Zambrano.

Not happy at all,unless he said that during this game because during Glavine's last start he lamented the fact that if he didn't get the win then his next start was on ESPN and he wouldn't get to call it.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I'd hardly call it crap.

Other teams use reserves in place of injured players and on day games also. Subs happen.

He could always muscle his way into the WFAN booth. That would give Dog Russo something to rail against.
