IGT 07/02/08 Mets at Cardinals, Pedro vs. Pineiro

[Guest AG/DC]

Small single there was as big a moment for Delgado as any against the Yankees.

Tie game with runner on third and one gone.

[Guest themetfairy]

The Mets take the lead on a sac fly!

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Keep'em coming.

Speaking of the games against the vile MFYs, Easley's leap to snare the liner late in the game Saturday was as good as any catch I've ever seen in person.

Let's keep the offense moving!

[Guest AG/DC]

Sac fly and it's 6-5.

Keep hitting. There're nine more outs to get and no guarantees in the pen.

[Frayed Knot]

Surprising that Ankiel didn't run Schumaker off the play and take that flyball as he had a much better chance at getting the runner.
But I'll take it.

Now let's kick the shit out of this Springer P.O.S.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Very nice. We were down by 4 in this game and I was begging Pedro to retire.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

This would be a nice spot for Tatis to justify his existence.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

OK

[Guest AG/DC]

Nudnick comes up empty again and we've taken s 7-5 lead and turned the lineup over.

As you wish!

[Fman99]

This has been quite the good game so far. Me likee.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Reyes has smashed his way into some bad luck in this series.

Hi. I'm back after watching my son's summer league team lose to fall to a record of 0-10-2.

If Cardinals fans are so "great" (as in "the greatest fans in baseball"), how do they tolerate announcers like Mike Shannon and these losers I'm hearing on FSN Midwest?

You are just Johnny Addition-by-Subtraction tonight, aren't you?

[Frayed Knot]

Nice inning Aaron.
Might see him for the 8th w/no Duaner available.

I've been especially down on the Mets the last two nights, ready to write off the season in fact, and it seems to be working.

More specifically, Pedro and Anderson have both sucked this year.

[Guest AG/DC]

Fifteen pitches, two righties due up, and blowing the fastball by Ankiel. I'd wamt him back out there no matter who is available.

What's the deal with Sanchez?

[Frayed Knot]

Duaner was telling anyone who asked that he can pitch tonight, but both Manual and Warthen were saying probably not.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Triple for Wright.

You know, he's better than Skip Shumaker or Ryan Ludwick.

[Elster88]

Young David paused, took three or four walking steps, and then took off. Coulda saved himself a belly-flop by busting it out of the box.

[Elster88]

Does Beltran need a rest? They say he's getting tomorrow off. I was skeptical with Wright being "tired", but it seemed to work.

[bmfc1]

Carlos takes strike three against a Cardinal. We didn't need to see that ever again.

[Guest AG/DC]

Beltran is the diference keeping us from breaking this open.

I'm OK with a rest for him.

[Gwreck]

A day off before going to Citizens' Bank Park just might be the key for Carlos. I'm more than fine with the day off for him.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Fucking Feliciano and his first-batter struggles.

[Guest themetfairy]

Fuckshit!

[bmfc1]

MFer. Wright on 3d, 1 out.

[Guest AG/DC]

Fuck that. Keep swinging. This Cardpen doesn't have it.

[Elster88]

Heilman's given up one run in a month. He just got out the heart of the order 1-2-3. One pitch gets away from him and he's pulled. My first beef with Manuel.

He was a big part of the 3 run third.

Me too.
