We're off to a flying start on MASN: Don Sutton pronounced A. Reyes' first name as "AR-JEN-IS."

[TransMonk]

Well, we only scored one in the first.

Sutton sucks horsecock.

[TransMonk]

5-0 now in the 3rd.

Nat's pitcher Bergmann walks Maine with the bases loaded.

[Guest themetfairy]

7-0

Everyone scores - Woo Hoo!

[metirish]

Busted open.....

[TransMonk]

I want more. No lead is safe.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Opened: One can of whoop-ass!

[TransMonk]

Bergmann: 75 pitches through 2.2 innings.

Delgado now up with sacs drunk.

[metirish]

Looks like Bergman is going to take one for the team and suck this up.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

He wants to test our bullpen. "See if you can blow THIS one!"

[TransMonk]

10-0. I want more.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Beltran doubles! Nice! He didn't want to make an out and get tagged with seven men LOB this game.

Maine must be loving this.

Now, you you pull him after five to rest him, or do you let him go and rest the pen?

while the main guys in the pen could certainly use some rest, this might be the time to have Stokes throw 3 or 4 innings and save everyone

[apmorris]

Hey guys, checkin in.

Holy shit!

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Good call on Stokes! In fact, let him and Muniz have some fun. Send Smith, Feliciano and Heilman back to the hotel - now!

[TransMonk]

I think Maine took Muniz's roster spot.

[nymr83]

muniz was sent down.

[Guest themetfairy]

The camera angle from the top of Nationals Park makes me dizzy.

Teddy Roosevelt is now 0-178 in the Presidents Race.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Well, we probably won't see him tonight then.

TR is getting hosed!

Too bad the Mets can't do something cool to commemorate the only Long Island president!

[Methead]

Danny Boy!

[TransMonk]

The rookie goes KABOOM the other way.

12-0 Us.

[Guest themetfairy]

Maybe they can let Teddy pull down a number. At least he isn't a Lincoln Mercury dealer.

Murphy's Ka-Boom makes it 12-0 Mets!

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

MURPHY!!!!

I like this kid!

[seawolf17]

No pressure tonight, Phillies.

None whatsoever.

...

The Metsies are coming.

[TransMonk]

Yeah...after listening to Sutton tonight, I might have to get me some Scully later.

[nymr83]

maine gets pinch-hit for in the top of the 6th. good move by jerry.
now lets see stokes go 4 innings even if he gives up 7 or 8 runs in the process.
if i'm the manager here stokes stays in this game until/unless he has the tying run on-deck against him.

And then I'm just letting the Nats hit off a tee, because the rest of my bullpen is locked in the clubhouse bathroom until they get Tug McGraw out of the cryogenic chamber.

[Frayed Knot]

12 run lead ... 3 innings to go ... we're into the bullpen

I think we have an outside shot at winning this one!!
