Makeup Game IGT; Mets - Pirates. 8/11

[Guest AG/DC]

Sixteen of his first 18 pitches had been fastballs, before finally walking Mientkiewicz on a ball four change.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Gary and Ron predicted that if the Pirates fell behind early, they'd just mail it in the rest of the way.

So much for that.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Fucking terrific

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Son of a .....

Absolutely disgusted.

[Guest holychicken]

Wow, we might just lose this game. Unbelievable. Actually, at this point, it is almost as if winning a game that we start out ahead is unbelievable.

[Gwreck]

Gameday says Heilman threw a first pitch fastball to Mientkiewicz -- ball.

Then he throws four straight that he fouls off. 1-2 count.

But then he throws another two fastballs, both out of the zone.

Finally goes to the changeup, and it's ball 4.

Umm...earth to Aaron/Robinson Cancel. Maybe when it's 1-2, that's the better time for the changeup?

"He will cross his fingers and bring in Schoeneweis."

The Aaron of good feeling is over.

They see enough Mets games to know the opposite is true: Its when the Mets get an early lead they turn the engines off.

[metirish]

Fuck Gameday
Fuck Heilman
Fuck Cancel
And fuck me.

[Guest holychicken]

And another HBP. Incredible. Fuckshit.

[Guest KC]

My headache is back.

[Farmer Ted]

Same nightmare. Different day.

[metirish]

It's so frustrating , it's like I am sitting here at work waiting for slow arse Window's 98 to bring me the bad news.....

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Maybe the pitching coach wasn't the bleeping problem afterall.

[nymr83]

Easley with a great play to save heilman's ass

[metirish]

At least Ben Grim has a nice long vacation to help get away from this misery , go away now and enjoy yourself for we will surely be miserable here.

7-5 Pirates

fuck fuck fuck

[Guest holychicken]

Maybe if you stop fuckin falling BEHIND every god-damn hitter you wouldn't have to groove one down the middle for an easy hit?

[Frayed Knot]

5 relievers used, 4 sucked.

Oh yeah, and we've scored one run since the 1st inning.

[Centerfield]

The Mets can officially blow me.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

We deserve it for having Beltran hit cleanup vs. lefties.

And having Anus Reyes as our lead pinch-hitter.

And for not bothering to get bullpen help at the deadline for 2nd year in a row despite bringing back the same group and riding them into the ground over the first few months of the year

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Disgusting.

This is the same crap for the second year in a row, and largely the same players in the pen, too.

Hello, Omar. This...group...can't...get...it...done!

It's got to be so disheartening to be one of the starters.

Well, they officially blow saves...

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Wasn't Kunz the closer in NO? Seriously, why not see what he can do? Clearly Show and Heilman are incapable of getting it done.

[Frayed Knot]

Totally disgusting

[Vic Sage]

It's been 3-2 on Beltran for a while now. what's the deal?

[soupcan]

What do you think?

7-5 Pirates. Final.

[Guest KC]

Mets won, Vic!
