[Guest OlerudOwned]

Looked safe to me.

[Zvon]

Ive had the Milledge KaBOOM in my back pocket since the week he did that thing last year (pictured small).

You can say what you want about me but you cant call me impatient.

(im feelin an itch to make new KaBOOMS-havent since that one--Ill take conceptual requests- PM me)

Hi guys, just getting here.

Looks like Mr. Pelfrey is looking to make a statement. And more power to him!

Those kabooms are just awesome.

[Zvon]

PELFREY!

I want to have your children!

[Guest OlerudOwned]

And here I was calling for Humber to get the start instead of Pelfrey.

Whaddu I know?

I would agree. Stockton and Girardi (on the Fox broadcat) are ignoring it. Worst example I think was the walk to L. Jones in the 4th.

Also worth noting that the second base umpire was out of position and blew the call on LoDuca at 2nd base.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Not Mota...........

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Wow! Wright is just kicking butt and taking all names. Nice play.

If the Braves didnt swing at those nastynastynastynasty curveballs I dont think they get called strikes.

BIG DP!
around the horn!

Wright's fielding is MUCH improved from early in the year and in virtually all aspects: charging bunts, starting DPs, smothering hots shots, throwing on the run, etc. Still gets a little wild if he has too much time on his hand but that's a minor nit picked.



As for the rest of the game -- other than the fact that we're running into too many outs (again) things are going along very smoothly I'd say. We even survived a Mota inning.

[bmfc1]

Reyes and Wright could both win GGs but since that award is in large part given because of reputation, I think that they might be too young.

I'm starting to see stories touting Wright as an MVP candidate. Gotta like that.

[bmfc1]

Notice the Mets don't act like idiots when they get it.

[Zvon]

ooooh
ooooh

DONT U BE HITTIN REYES YA BASTAGE!

[Willets Point]

Whoops! I foolishly assumed that a summer game in Atlanta would be a night game.

[Zvon]

WTF!!!???

Fire Ricky!

[Guest Kid Carsey]

What the hell is up with all these pick-offs?

[bmfc1]

How friggin' stupid!

[Willets Point]

I hate blackout games.

[Frayed Knot]

G*D D*M*M*T

That's FIVE this week!
That should be almost a season's worth.
We can't keep giving away outs like that.

[Zvon]

Ricky wearing armor in the coaching box.....on his elbow(lol).
I wanna say now Ive seen everything, but I know better.

[Frayed Knot]

]Ricky wearing armor in the coaching box.....on his elbow

I suspect that was Castillo's which Rickey then temporarily inherits upon Luis reaching first.


Franco PHs and actually pulls a ball !!

Now Diaz PHs and strikes out which also means Atlanta has a worse LFer for the 9th inning.

Killer inning for Feliciano -- I'll take it.

[bmfc1]

After the tragedy in the minors, I wonder if base coaches will start wearing helmets.

See where Encarnacion of the Reds got smoked in the face while in the on-deck circle Friday night?
Had a helmet on obviously but it didn't help in this case.
I'm almost surprised that doesn't happen more often.
And then when you figure that in a lot of these new stadiums that there are fans not a whole lot further away than that ...
