IGT 08/23, Padres at Mets (rubbahgame)

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Here we go. Reyes and Castillo both single. Plenty of speed on the bases with Wright coming up and Beltran on deck.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Gorgeous stuff.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Believing...believing....

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

God we're cool. Double steal!!

[Guest Mendoza Line]

]Castillo: Best. Deadline. Trade. EVER!

It bears repeating.

Tie game!

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Double steal eliminates the potential of a DP. Gutsy move, but I love it.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Fucking gorgeous.

[Gwreck]

I think Beltran ends it with a homer here.

Edit: Well, unless they intentionally walk him.

[Guest Edgy DC]

About 900 career saves between these two closers and they each blow one.

Playoff.

Baseball.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Oh boy.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

Walking Beltran with the tie ... chance for Delgado to do something special ....

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

The stolen bases pay off as Wright delivers the tying run with a sac fly. Castillo 90 feet away from another incredible Met win.

[Frayed Knot]

Someone get ready to cue Marley's 'Redemption Song' for Carlos II

[Guest Edgy DC]

Will everybody who has booed Delgado this evening please send me your address?

[TransMonk]

One more chance, Delgado...let's do this!

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

No surprise that they walked Carlos to get to Carlos.

Here's your chance for redemption big guy.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

Extras

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Free baseball.

[Gwreck]

Cincy/ATL are also in bonusbaseball.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Just a hunch, but I think Lastings breaks out of that 5-K mode and ends this one.

[Frayed Knot]

I guess there are no OFers left to double-switch Heilman/Alou ?
Woulda been a good spot for it esp since we may need Aaron to go more than a couple innings.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Wagner with the 27-pitch inning. Hoffman with 26.

Sand Diego bench has two legit hitting subs --- Ensberg ® and Mackowiak (L) --- plus backup catcher Pete LaForest, who has been hot.

Mets are down to DiFelice, and I wonder if Sandy Jr. is up to extra innings.

Nevermind ... as they just said they DID leave Conine in.
Right move IMO

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

ow. I mean, he crushed one foul too.

[TransMonk]

Cripes...this game is killing me.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

BLEEPING HEILMAN.

[Elster88]

I don't like this.

[DocTee]

ugh.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Milledge, Alomar, DiFelice in the bottom of the inning against Bell.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Talk about bad omens. My post indicator Met is Mel Rojas. I need some quick posts to get to the next player.
