Gay Dame Panicky IGT, 8/30 @ Philly

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

It's Hernandez v. Kyle Lohse for all the marbles. We beat up Lohse back in July when he was a Red. I'd say a strong asskicking is in order

[metirish]

I wouldn't want any other Mets starter out there right now,offense needs to feast on this Lohse.

[Willets Point]

Hmm...my schedule has this game starting at 7:05 pm. Worthless schedule!

It was originally a night game,got changed for some reason.

="metirish"]It was originally a night game but got changed for some reason.

That reason is apparently the Eagles *exhibition game across the street tonight.





* That's right NFL, I said Exhibition game!

[Guest Edgy DC]

A sound roundhouse would be a nice way to make them forget any warm fuzzies from the last few days.

[seawolf17]

I want to see them go out there and score 18 runs today. Just beat the ever-loving hell out of them. Sure, they'll have lost 3 of 4, but at least I'll feel better.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Castillo, who I am certain is badly hurt, gets the day off. Alou is taking a day off from grounding out to shortstop or lining out to left. LoDuca needs time to work on his bad attitude. Milledge, who tattooed Lohse last time, is getting punished for not being any better than Green.

Recently they've pitched Alou high and away and he tomahawks it trying to pull it.

[Willets Point]

If the Mets lose today the next IGT should be titled "Just a win game, pleaaaaaaaaaasse?!?! IGT."

[Guest Edgy DC]

A Wright single and stolen base sums up the first.

Thirty steals.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Things be quiet.

[soupcan]

Rollins lead off double.
Utley flies to right.
Burrell pops to Difelice.
Howard homers to center.

2-0 Phils.

[Willets Point]

Can they be hitting them any harder off Hernandez?

[Guest Edgy DC]

It's that they hit him that worries me.

I know it's the first inning, but with a runner on second, you figure a smart old guy pitches around a hot Ryan Howard.

[Willets Point]

May as well not ruin the perfect suckiness by having a man on base. Let 'em get picked off.

[bmfc1]

Getting picked off was a strategical move so the pitcher doesn't lead off the next inning.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Tell me you posted that after it hap'd.

[bmfc1]

Of course. Sarcasm through my tears.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I read Willets' comment seemingly three minutes before Gameday fullfilled his prophecy.

[Willets Point]

New strategy: Let's not pitch to Burrell. Ever.

[Willets Point]

My name is Orlando Hernandez and I'll be your batting practice pitcher today.

[TransMonk]

Well this is craptacular.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Embarrassing.

[Willets Point]

Typical is a the most appropriate adjective.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Must drink beer.

[metirish]

Bloody hell this is a mess.

[Willets Point]

And not the non-alcoholic kind either.

WOW.

[Elster88]

The Phanatic killed me on Burrell's HR, despite the personal pain I felt.
