IGT, 7/7: Mets @ Phils

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Anything can happen once the Alomars are in charge.

[Guest themetfairy]

Onto the 9th!

[Guest KC]

VCF: The home run was a foregone conclusion, no?<<<

Foregone how?

[Zvon]

we

cannot

lose

this

game

If we do I may have to join Grote in Schmuckville till 2009.

[Zvon]

TATIS!
WTF YA DOIN!!!???

It was a single right to Burrell.
Pat may suck in left but he don't suck THAT much.

[Fman99]

Ugh. Tatis had no shot at a double on that play. Let's hope that doesn't come into play later in this inning.

Wags is throwing in the pen...

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

A for effort, Fernando. Not so much for brains.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

KC - "Foregone how?"

The momentum has crossed over to the opposing side of the field. With it went much of the confidence of Mets boosters. Many then start to fatalistically, assume the worst.

Is that anywhere near Bumbleass?

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Next town over, I believe.

[Fman99]

Here we go.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Officially -- but quietly -- worried.

[Guest themetfairy]

Sandman Time.

I'm just buying into the whole "the broadcasters jinxed us" nonsense.

I'm actually confident Wagner will get this save, anyone else?

Why not? Odds grossly in his favor.

[Fman99]

Leadoff double by Shane BigDorito.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Still confident.

I think.

[Guest AG/DC]

Baseball is hard.

Not me.

[Zvon]

Thats how Maine gets those silly arm cramps.
Hangin over the dugout rail like that.

Lead off double by Victorino and that was LITERALLY on the white line, a rope to the left field corner.

[Fman99]

A walk and the tying run comes to the plate. No outs. Visit from old white guy.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Once again, for my sanity:

Ryan Howard vs LHP, 2008: .188/.247/.355

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Bruntlett walks and now Howard steps in as the potential tying run.

I feel a 4-6-3 DP coming on.

[Guest AG/DC]

Note: Pedro Feliz is still on the Phillie bench.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Our All-Star is really starting to get my goat.

[Fman99]

BIG K of Ryan Howard. One down.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

Wags handles Howard. Now this jerk. Go get 'em Billy.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Who doesn;t see this ending badly
