IGT, 9/3, Pedros vs. Reds

[Guest Edgy DC]

Starting early to secure the guarantee of the MOST ANTI-CLIMACTIC GAME OF THE YEAR!

But, you know, maybe not.

[Frayed Knot]

Aaron Harang is a surprising 14-3, 3.51 ERA, 1.23 WHiP

Pedro's very first Met game also came in Cincinnati.

And, although he struck out 12 in 6 innings, that one didn't start particularly well (Adam Dunn 3R HR in the 1st) and didn't end particularly well either (Dunn & Randa HRs).

Or, as origninaljb would say ... Looper!





* It's 'Hammer' Time !!

[metirish]

Keith - " the sweep in Atlanta is not possible without Pedro being in the clubhouse"...that's a lot of pressure.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

When it comes to Mike Wallace, the story ends with me puttin him in the wall.

Love that commercial.

[Elster88]

Nice bunt Castillo but do you have to turn your head over your shoulder to watch it for half the trip down the line?

[Elster88]

Jeff Keppinger with the highest BA sincd the ASB at .367. Wright at .366.

[Elster88]

Wright looks sexy with eye black.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

I'd prefer to see Pedro bat before he pitches.

[Elster88]

SNY not going to commercial after the first half. Well done.

[Gwreck]

Gary's pun? Boooooo.

For those without SNY, he said "it's the third of September, a day that Pedro will always remember."

[Elster88]

Swinging bunt for Hamilton. Pedro looked annoyed.

[Elster88]

Alou shoulda caught that ball. Admittedly a screamer.

[metirish]

Pedro getting hit hard,2 zip Reds...Phillips steals second....

[metirish]

All things considered two runs is not bad,could have been worse and really could have been one run.

[Elster88]

Harang's a big sunoffagun huh.

Seriously maybe none. The swinging bunt was a swinging bunt and the second ball shoulda been caught. But it was stung.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Radio dudes said that was a mammoth home run by Pee-Hands.

[Elster88]

'Twas

[Gwreck]

10 rows deep into the second deck.

[Gwreck]

Pedro gets 3000 Ks. Wave to the crowd (guess they put it on the scoreboard).

29 pitches through 2 innings.

[Elster88]

When did Reyes turn into Willie Mays Hayes?

Nice ovation from the crowd.

[nymr83]

3-2 Mets on the Wright-bomb to the opposite field!

[TransMonk]

I love D Wright...I'm not afraid to say it.

[nymr83]

oh and umm... M-V-P? i was discussing it last night with a friend... he's 10th in the league or so in OPS, 6th in OBP... nobody higher than him will currently make the playoffs (and we know that matters to the voters, even if it shouldn't)

[Guest Edgy DC]

He's in a good position. Little feels better than when Wright is going the other way.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Good job busting it down the line by Green.

A runner on second with Green and LoDuca coming up, say the announcers, is a pretty good promise of a run.

[TransMonk]

Aaron Harang-a-tang looks very hittable. He's had a good season and I was expecting more from him.
