[DocTee]

Maine gives up three in the first, Mets get two back in their half of the frame, so far.

And the only one here is 3K miles from Shea.

[DocTee]

Castillo homers.

In other news, hell freezes over.

[DocTee]

Nice 1-2-3 inning for Maine gets him back in rhythm.

[DocTee]

And Kershaw responds in kind. 3-2 Dodgers after two full.

[DocTee]

I know it's Friday and some of you have dates, but where the hell is Rogers? Or Valadius? At the premier of Sex in the City??

C'mon guys, priorities...

[DocTee]

Kemp--who'd look good in Metly colors--flies out after an 8 pitch at bat to lead off the third. The slumping Jeff Kent ks for the second.

[DocTee]

7 in a row for Maine after that inning-ending strikeout of James Loney.

[DocTee]

Consecutive walks to Reyes, Castillo and Wright-- Big AB here for Carlos B.

[DocTee]

Sac fly and we are tied. Ttais grounds out, Mets plate one, strand two.

New game after three.

Three runs on two hits so far.

Martin homers to start the Dodger fourth--old game.

[DocTee]

Castro and Delgado open thehome half of the fourth with consecutive singles.

Nick Evans to the plate. Singles-- loaded for the pitcher, with no outs. Gotta capitalize on these opportunities.

On edit: Evans was up 3-0, then Kershaw worked it full. Following via ESPN GameCast, I though Torre was intentionally walking the bags full to get to Maine.

[Guest Mendoza Line]

I've been stuck at the office. Reading through this thread is a lot more fun than following on Gameday.

[seawolf17]

Hey! A Chan Ho Park sighting! Bring him in! Bring him in!

[DocTee]

Castro retired at home on the FC-- still loaded for Jose.

Who brings one home on another FC.

First and second, two down for Castillo.

[seawolf17]

First, second, and third for the illegitimate son of Pat Tabler, David Wright.

[seawolf17]

And it's Chan Hoooooooooooooooooooo!

[DocTee]

Bags juiced for DWright after another walk. Torre must be at wits end.

If the Mets don't plate more than one this inning, I will be.

[seawolf17]

Sportsline says Park is 4-for-4 (1.1 IP, 0 H) with the bases loaded and two out this year.

[seawolf17]

5-for-5.

[DocTee]

Left 'em loaded.

[metirish]

Is it mandatory now to show a happy Willie all the time and to praise him all the time , Willie clapping , Willie encouraging , smiling Willie , " That's one thing Torre does so good( talking to Kershaw after he took him out) , oh and Willie too".....crazy.

[DocTee]

Maine showing no ill effects from the long inning-- Ks Park and induces comebackers from Pierre and Kemp.

[DocTee]

Carlos B. grounds out...ESPN GameCast show Tatis in LA uni...never knew (or forgot) he was once a Dodger. Tatis and Castro follow CB's lead and ground out in succession.


<< My designation is a man who will get managerial consideration soon, methinks. (Jose Oquendo, in case my posting level changes-- and at this rate it will by next inning).

[seawolf17]

Tatis vs Park, almost ten years after the 2 grand slams in an inning game.

Ron Darling, talking about giving up ten runs in 2/3 of an inning. He was off by a run. Ugly.

Look at Gary Carter batting seventh. He really did fall off the table quickly, didn't he?

[metirish]

Delgado looks totally lost up there , swinging and missing by a foot at times.

[DocTee]

'nother quick inning by Maine.

[DocTee]

Maine lifted after six as Casanova PHs. 1 R on 2 hits (both to Martin) over his last five IP.

[metirish]

Blake DeWitt showing in this series why he was so low on the Dodger depth chart.

[metirish]

Castillo out of the game after making the DP , looks like he was limping badly.
