Guest Edgy DC Guests Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 The Mets go up against Dennys Reyes today at 12:05 with Jonathan Niese, and I'm declaring it a must-winTM after they needed a ninth-inning comeback to beat the Fordham Baldies yesterday.With any luck, we could see a lineup accessoried with minor-league loanees like Reese Havens or even Wilmer Flores.
Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket Guests Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 The High-Flyin' Bird is in the lineupCastillo, 2b Valentin, 3b Murphy, lf Kielty, dh Pagan, cf Abreu, 1b Reed, rf Schneider, c Havens, ss
Guest Edgy DC Guests Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 Woo-hoo! Welcome to the show, Reese!Castillo, 2bValentin, 3bMurphy, lfKielty, dhPagan, cfAbreu, 1bReed, rfSchneider, cHavens, ssNiese, sp

MFS62 Old-Timey Member Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 There was a small blurb in the early edition of the Snooze that quoted Omar as saying that it "would be fun to see a 17 year old" (Wilmer Flores) hitting against major league pitchers. I hope he gets some playing time.Later
Guest Edgy DC Guests Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 Mets come up empty in the first after Castillo leads off with a double and is sacrificed over by Valentin. Bunting in the first: not for winners.Niese gets 'em in order in the bottom half, including whiffage of Albert Pujols.
Guest Edgy DC Guests Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 Jonathan puked up a pair of runs in the second, courtesy of a two-run single by Khalil "The Prophet" Green, who is a key to hopes in Cardinalia this year.The Mets turned a DP in the inning but a passed ball helped set up the runs.
Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket Guests Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 Khalil Greene will probably cause me to hate the Cardinals more than usual this year, which is a lot.

Guest Edgy DC Guests Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 The SortaMets thundered back, including a two-run triple from Danny Murphy. Michael Antonioni threw two innings of scoreless one-hit ball, but then Eddie Kunz gave one back. The KindaMets lead 4-3 as Adam "The Stapler" Bostick comes on.
Guest Edgy DC Guests Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 (edited) Bostick gives one back!It's 4-4 after seven!Duaner walks two but escapes!We've got a dogfight! Edited March 6, 2009 by Guest

Guest Edgy DC Guests Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 And the Mets score one in the ninth to win!Win goes to Carlos Muniz for a scoreless eighth, save goes to Rocky Cherry for a scoreless ninth. Jose Velentin goes three for four with two runs scored, plus the stupid bunt.
Guest Edgy DC Guests Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 Game-winning hit courtesy of Marlon Anderson, pinch hitting.

The RBI may have come when he was acting as the "D"-word. *http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/boxscore;_ylt=AqTLO3ap9ASIrQhn1lEbEJERvLYF?gid=290306124Later* = that AL rule. (shudder)
