i like the lineup, pitches to hit for church infront of wright

[Zvon]

Reyes and Church set the table with leadoff singles in the 1st.

Mr. Wright up.

[Zvon]

Wright swings at a bad hitters pitch.
Maybe just a bad pitch, and hits into a DP.

Reyes scores on the play.

Beltran pops out to the catcher.
That should have been a MUCH bigger inning.

[Zvon]

Nice first from Maine.
1-2-3

[Guest themetfairy]

Another nice inning for Maine.

And it's nice seeing the Red, White and Blue logo caps again.

[Zvon]

Nice try Jose.
That umps callin the same pitch a strike one time, a ball the next.

Make up your mind blue!

[Guest themetfairy]

Another 1-2-3 frame for Maine.

Now it's time to give him some support!

[Zvon]

Maine lookin good thru three.

[Zvon]

Wright wrips a double!

Would have liked that in the 1st but I wont complain.
Whoops, just did.

Beltran, comeon

[Guest themetfairy]

And Wright comes home on what D-Dad described as, "a Little League play."

We'll go to the county fireworks show on that note.

[Zvon]

OO! Howard throws the pickoff away!
2-0

Enjoy TmF!

[Zvon]

Easley drives in Beltran and its 3-0 .

[Zvon]

That wasn't a bad pitch but you have to keep the ball down to Howard.

Smacks a 3 run homer and its tied.
Opposite field.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

This team really beat my spirit last night. If they don't win tonight this may be it for them. Or me, or something.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

The whole season is coming apart before our eyes: Maine is having elbow trouble (in his non-throwing elbow) and is leaving the game here in the 6th.

Maine of course has allowed a single hit but it was a 3-run homer.

[Zvon]

Ohhh noooo.

Maine hurt.
Heilman coming on.

No definite word on whats wrong but Maine grabbed his left arm in pain after a pitch. Not his pitching arm, but still bad news.

Cramp?

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Well, at east it's his left elbow. I have just about given hope of this team making the postseason. They have done nothing to demonstrate that they are capable of winning 6-8 straight or getting on a hot streak and winning 15 of 20 games. They just have too many holes in the offense and the rotation just isn't deep enough to carry the sporadic offense.

[Guest KC]

Mighty strange, no point in speculating. Heilman finishes off that.

Cramp report from dugout while typing.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Argenis Reyes, baton twirler, files out.

I'd like a triple now from the Real Reyes.

Woulda been a triple were it not for Victorino's speed.

[Zvon]

Yea, cramp.

Odd.
Guess it was so bad they couldn't do anything but remove him from the game.

Whew, good thing they held up Aguila.
Reyes double has it 2nd and 3rd.

2 out.

DO IT CHURCH!

[nymr83]

Church hit by a pitch, Moyer won't be allowed to face David Wright.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Church plunked and the bags are drunk.

Argenis Reyes' failure to make a productive out (or a non-out) still looming huge but Wright will hit vs. Madsen.

[Zvon]

Moyer hits Church!
Good at bat.

And that'll be it for Moyer-glad to see him go.

Madson coming on for the Phils.

Bases fulla Mets with Mr. Wright coming to the plate.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Same old Mets
