Had a chance again there.

Cycles should include walks.

The base-reaching cycle:

Hit
Walk
Reach on error
Hit by pitch
Catcher's interference.

I think there are two other ways to reach base. I imagine we could go another few hundred years before somebody reaches base seven different ways in one game.

[Fman99]

Wow. Another GIDP.

Another wasted late-inning hitting display by the Mets. Let's see if it bites them in the ass.

[Frayed Knot]

And that's what ARod did an inning or so ago in da Bronx -- only he GiDP'd w/the sacks loaded when they were down by a few

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Awwwwwwww DAVID!!!!! Double plays are killing our insurance opportunities.

Fielder's choice
Dropped 3rd strike/wild pitch

[Fman99]

Duaner's got the leprosy hat on. Let's see if he can drop the Phillies like so many detached appendages.

[Fman99]

Now Gary is once again channeling my commentary for his play by play.

Here's the test. Let's see if he's truly lurking.

PICKLES.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Well, the strike out and run when the catcher fails to hold on to the pitch is probably a more likely way to reach than catcher interference. For the life of me, I can't think of a seventh way to reach first base safely.

[metirish]

Whatever about Duaner's hat he looks like a fecking construction worker pitching.

[Frayed Knot]

Can't you just see a guy late in the game trying to get on via catcher's interference ... and then explaining in the post-game; 'Hey, I needed it for my cycle!'

[Elster88]

This is exciting. I have to go to the bathroom.

[Fman99]

Ol Sucko Suckliciano comes right in and gives up a hit.

:sigh:

[Frayed Knot]

Jeezus Krist Pedro!!!!

[soupcan]

It was a groundball.

[Fman99]

Five fucking outs.

Fman99 - "Fielder's choice

Doh! I brain cramped on the FC option.

Our bullpen is painful to watch. Come on guys, you need to hang on to this game. Let's get a DP of our own.

[nymr83]

OMFG jimmy rollins kills us

[Frayed Knot]

Short men in the pen = 4 batters, 1 retired

SSDD

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

All Pedros suck.

[Zvon]

Oy.
Rollins 5 for 5 and drives in another.
He was 5 for 5 yesterday too, I think.

Damn.
Do NOT let THIS game GET away!

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Feliciano just has nothing left. Nothing.

[soupcan]

Pat the Bat....

DUM DE DUM DUM!!

[Fman99]

HUGE K.

Four outs. Smith in to face stupid Pat the Bat.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

This is all David Wright's fault.

[metirish]

Smith looks all jacked up , nervous like.

[Elster88]

Back to the bathroom.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Holy crappy pants
