I'm Seeing Red.... IGT 7/20/08: Mets @ Reds

[Guest AG/DC]

If he dudn't get his head in the game, the ghost of Gil Hodges is going to go out there and lift him from the game.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

]Marlon's due for something good to happen today.

Perhaps he'll get a new job, as a scout or something.

[Zvon]

Speed kills too?

I don't think Castro should have thrown with the jump Phillips had.
That was a huge jump.

[Zvon]

that darn Encarnacion.

Ties it.

[TransMonk]

Just like that, it's tied.

Grrr...

[Guest OlerudOwned]

One of these days the Mets are going to do something horrible and blow a game and I'm going to be really sour, and then it's going to cut to that goddamned Derek Jeter Ford commercial and and aahhh



Urge to kill...rising...

[Frayed Knot]

Where the frick is Delgado going?

[Guest KC]

He's going to get an Edge.

i wish people would get off that BS already, omar was managing a team that had been taken over by mlb and was in danger of imminent contraction, he tried to trade guys who would never have played in Montreal anyway to help win then.

[nymr83]

Pelfrey leads off the 6th, I feel like willie would have pinch-hit here with Pelfrey having gone 5 and allowed 4

I'm well aware of that, Nymr83--just trying to be funny. Omar was in a desperate situation at that time.

[Zvon]

Marlins tie Philly in the 8th.
Hamels still in there.
2-2

[Zvon]

sheeeeeeeee-it.

That darn Phillips.

[nymr83]

Phillips heard us talking about him.

[Zvon]

An upper deck job.
Wonder how far he could have hit that hanger if he wasn't so low on energy...

[Zvon]

Excellent baseball!

Wright walks, steals second, Delgado rips a line single and drives him in to tie it.

[TransMonk]

Delgado has had himself a pretty excellent series.

Tie game again.

[Gwreck]

Phils-Marlins going to the 10th, also tied.

[Zvon]

Awww, Jose.


Ok, stay calm, don't start throwing stuff.
Superstars make errors too.

Turning a double play on the next batter helps. Whew.

[Zvon]

And Jose makes up for his boo-boo with a fine play to start the DP.
Nice.

[TransMonk]

LOBs all over the place.

[Zvon]

Nice inning by Sanchez.

Phils threatening in the 11th, 2 on, 2 out.
Wild pitch!.....2nd and 3rd, 2 out.

[Zvon]

Coste K'd in Florida.

Beltran singles and steals 2nd.

[Zvon]

And Gary, its a horrible play if you don't make it....damn.
Beltran thrown out trying to steal 3rd.

And Castro follows with a single.
Cripes.

Ok guys, plate one here.

[Guest KC]

Stealing third just ain't worth it most times if ya get caught under almost
all scenarios. It's nice it the guy scores on a sac-fly, but seems like most
times it's an inning killer if ya get caught.

Marlins with bases loaded in their home 11th and no outs!

[Zvon]

ugh.

Nice play by Votto ends that threat.


Marlins have the bases loaded, no out, in the 11th.

[bmfc1]

Cantu wins it for the Marlins.

[Guest KC]

Grand slam single looked like for Cantu.

[Zvon]

Fish win as Cantu hits one off the wall in left.
