Well, here I am in the IGT, and

I WASN'T EVEN SUPPOSED TO BE HERE TODAY!


Long story, don't worry, not going to tell it...

[Guest KC]

The following clip contains profanity and crass content:

[Benjamin Grimm]

Is Joe Torre out of uniform?

He seems to be wearing a golf shirt instead of a regulation Dodgers jersey.

[stevejrogers]

Going for the Francona or the Gibbons look?

[stevejrogers]

Chavez nails Pierre at the plate for the final out of the inning, preserving the 0-0 score.

[apmorris]

Somebody wake up Torre, I think he was safe.

[Guest KC]

He never even came close to touching the plate. Perfect throw, perfect
catch, perfect blocking of the dish.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Good call by the ump. It looked like he SHOULD have been safe, but he was clearly out. (The runner beat the ball, but Schneider blocked nicely.)

[nymr83]

mets radio crew break out the dick cheney hunting jokes!

[apmorris]

I'm watching from LA - Charley Steiner and Steve Lyons are only talking about the Mets.

"It's not that man's (willie) fault", Lyons

Missed the bus to the Yankee fan game-watching party?

[nymr83]

LOL

[Willets Point]

Wright is my homey.

[Willets Point]

Good game so far. Mets up 2-0.

Too bad I'm the only one commenting on it because I'm a bit rusty on IGT's.

[stevejrogers]

Had to run over to Amazon.com to do some shopping, sorry to leave you hanging WP.

[Valadius]

Vargas is the shit.

[metirish]

When I was reading Dodger Blues today a poster noted how " Wright kills Penny"....hell yeah.

[Guest AG/DC]

Brad Penny needs a change of environment. May I suggest Philadephia?

[Valadius]

Finally a chance to use this again:

[Guest AG/DC]

Problem with the Bugs Bunny clip is that those guys have road jerseys.

[Valadius]

Ha, it's Kid Pro Kuo!

[stevejrogers]

Love taking it to LA.

Probably going to be in Los Angeles when the Cubs are next weekend, but sadly won't get to any games. Mets-Pads Friday night is enough right now.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

I don't see why the Dodgers don't just start Kuo against us every time.

And we continue to be Blake DeWitt's bitch.

Anyway I hadthe sound down trying to put down Jr. and missed the whole interference thing. SNY seemed to have went to a commercial, then cut back in just as Reyes was singling.

[Willets Point]

The Dodgers scored a lot while I was fighting with a washing machine with an unbalanced load. Good thing the Mets have a good padding already.

[Willets Point]

Delgado should be released! A sack of baseballs would have been able to get a double play there. Carlos sucks!

I was awfully confused by that. When they cut to the commercial, I thought that Vargas had grounded out. When they come back, he's advancing to second and Reyes is getting to first.

No "while you were away" explanation from the announcers. I suspect they may have been broadcasting the whole time, not knowing they were off the air.

I rewound back to Vargas' ground out to see if I had missed anything. It was eerie; like I had skipped to another dimension somehow while those commercials were playing.

I'm starting to think that our season has come; when the Mets score four runs AFTER the third out, it's the old time magic again.

[Guest AG/DC]

Good movement on that slider for Muniz.

[Guest AG/DC]

Heh, heh.

[Willets Point]

Yeah Muniz. Nice to get out #3 with lead intact.
