[Benjamin Grimm]

I think it's time for a pre-game singalong.

Meet the Mets
Meet the Mets
Step right up and greet the Mets...

Come on everybody! Join in!

Hanley Ramirez lives up to his post-game comment and is in the lineup.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Bring your kiddies
Bring your wife
Guaranteed to have the time of your life!

[bmfc1]

Because the Mets are really socking the ball
Knocking the homeruns, over the wall.

[bmfc1]

Olivo gets suspended for 5 games but appeals so it doesn't take effect until next year.

So, which is it?

[metirish]

Looks to be an electric atmosphere at the game today, Gary says it's playoff like plus.

Lets go Mets, I'd like nothing more than several more IGT's with you lot.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Likewise, brudda.

I've got radio only. Howie just said the Mets put a picture of the skirmish from yesterday on the wall with and wrote "Don't wake the sleeping Mutts. Someone must pay" underneath it.

I feel like there's going to be a rumble after school today behind the football field.

[Zvon]

And we are underway.

[TransMonk]

Keith said he doesn't really miss the game, but this is a game he'd like to play in.

Let's Go Mets!!!

[Zvon]

Great! Ump already is a factor.

Get out there Willie!
Say something!

[Zvon]

Lets get two and get outta this.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Radio boys say West is stingy early with the corners. First and third one out.

First big hurdle.

C'mon, Tommy.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Fucking fuck.

[Zvon]

OOOOHHHHH NOOOOOOO!

[nymr83]

4-0 Florida. I'll be watching the Jets.

[metirish]

What a let down already.

[seawolf17]

And the TV is off. See you in '08, Mets.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I guess this isn't meant to be easy.

GO NATIONALS!

Have a nice time.

Strikes and outs. And lots of runs.

Lets Go Mets.

[Zvon]

These have not been bad pitches.

[Zvon]

I guess we get to see who the REAL Met fans are folks.

Hey, we knew we had to score some runs today.

[metirish]

Gotta pull Glavine now, Keith keeps talking about good pitches, I'm not buying that.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Glavine's pitching his way out of a Met uni.

Strikes and outs.

NOW!!!

[A Boy Named Seo]

Have to go vomit.

BRB.

[TransMonk]

It's like a goddamn nightmare.

[Zvon]

Anyone who isn't watching.

Leading off the game, Ramirez was hit by a pitch, but the home plate ump did not see it.

Now that ball had to hit something, because it never got to Castro, so everyone in the world figured it hit the knob of the bat and was a strike.
So when Ramirez walked, we all had him at ball 3.
But home plate ump Joe West had him at ball four, because he must have called that pitch a ball.

And even though the Mets were not clear on what happened there at the time, Willie did not even step out to question it.


And thats all for Glavine, who I don't think was pitching as horrible as this inning indicates, and his day is wasted.

Damn.

[Guest Rotblatt]

I knew it wouldn't be easy, but I figured Glavine would give us at least 1 inning.

Bu-bye, Glavine. Good luck in Atlanta next year.
