IGT 05/26 | Fish at Mets

[Guest KC]

Yeah, I'm just gonna shut up. Bad enough we'll probably awake to three new
Willie threads by batmagadanleadoff.

Nigh nigh.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Gonzalez's double wasn't hit very well and it could have likely been played better by Beltran, but Pelfrey set himself up for that play to hurt him with his wildness. Pelfrey helped to do himself in by walking Jacobs on 4 pitches and then hitting the next hitter, Uggla with a 2-2 pitch.

[Guest AG/DC]

OK, everybody on Heilman's back. We're going places.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Heilman with a 1-2-3 inning.

[Guest KC]

Darling even said from the booth that Beltran froze and could have made
a better play on the non-double.

No really, I'm done with that.

[Guest AG/DC]

Come now. Nolasco isn't exactly bringing it here. Good time to rally here.

[Guest AG/DC]

Two on, no out.

Two on, no out.

Two on, no out.

Two on, no out.

Stomp-stomp-clap!

Stomp-stomp-clap!

Stomp-stomp-clap!

[Guest KC]

Evans up with first and third and two down. Too bad Willie is in the dugout.

[Guest KC]

Whiffs looking, freakin' Willie.

[Guest AG/DC]

Brammit.

Hey, anybody mention Geremi Gonzalez in the booth tonight?

(I'm listening to a commercial enumerating the majesty of the moment when a batter hist his 600th homer, but they've deleted Griffey.)

[metirish]

Word on the wire is that there will be a press conference during the seventh inning so Willie can discuss the game so far.

[Gwreck]

SNY did mention Gonzalez on the scrolling ticker on the bottom of the screen.

Glad to see Heilman earning some beer tonight.

Well, you know, this thing's not over. Our guys are going to battle. They've been here before and they'll pull through. You know, we missed some opportunities early. But, our guys just need to do well the rest of the way. There's a whole lot of baseball left to be played, man, and, you know, we'll pull through. Doesn't anyone have any questions about the game?

[Guest KC]

You cribbed that from someone.

[Guest AG/DC]

Sgt. Elizabeth Quiñones (still a corporal in the photo) beseeches God to bless America.



Mets sting the ball a little, go in order.

[Guest KC]

She has a very lovely voice.

[Guest AG/DC]

Is Helms allowed to hit it that far?

Hanley with the infield in. Yikey.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Well, that inning could have been better, but it certainly could have been worse.

Elsewhere around the NL, the Phillies are busy pummeling the Rockies by a score of 16-4 through 6. Atlanta defeated Arizona earlier in the day by a score of 7-3.

[Fman99]

I turned it off. Thanks anyway.

[Guest KC]

Awful lotta Mets being retired in a row here with two outs in the 8th.

[Frayed Knot]

9 batters have faced the Marlin pen - 9 outs - 9 balls that haven't left the infield

[seawolf17]

I still hate this team.

[Guest KC]

They haven't been terribly lovable.

[Guest themetfairy]

I merely hat them.

But give me time....

[metirish]

Ron talking about the security like only a rich fuck would.

[Guest AG/DC]

Endy, get of the interstate NOW!!!!

[Guest KC]

I don't see so much as a rich-fuck thing, but more I don't care how Ron got
to his car back in the day during a 2008 b'cast.

If the Mets were winning 16-1 I would be more tolerant of that stuff.

[Guest AG/DC]

Since when is Hanley Ramirez a Gold Glover?

[Frayed Knot]

The last 15 batters made outs and not one ball out of the infield in the final 3 innings

Yeah I hear ya , just a bit pissed right now , but knowing that Ron will get walked to his car by beefy security guards makes me feel good.
