IGT METS-BRAVES 5/5/2009

[Guest Kong76]

Funny, OO

[Fman99]

Ruh roh. Now 2-1 after an RBI double by some moe.

Need another out here Bobby.

[Fman99]

Phew.

Too bad we left 50 men on base tonight. It should be 5-1 or 7-1 or something. Instead of the nail biter.

Insurance run anyone?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Inherited runners' scoring makes the baby Jesus cry.

Castro would be good to do some "Waterboy"-style visualizin' right about now.

[Guest Kong76]

Castro was 3-3, that ain't a water boy day at the office.

Whatever the purpose behind Manuel batting for Castro days ago, it seems to have
lit a bit of fire under his butt ... lucky Skip or Skip with a purpose, short term it's worked.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

We're just asking for it.

ROFL!

Ugh. Great job by Putz, botched by Castillo.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

And Jones gets on after rolling one through the Luis Castillo Memorial Overpass.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Begging for it.

[nymr83]

i came by earlier and almost posted but didn't want to interrupt Ashie's conversation with himself.

Great job by Livan tonight.

[nymr83]

Luis Castillo is:

If you can't talk to yourself, who CAN you talk to? Castillo obviously agrees. Although not with himself, apparently-- he slams the glove after that third out.

(Take it easy, guy... have some Schaefer for the DPs. Though, y'know, not as much as you would have had two minutes ago.)

[Fman99]

I like it. You want these guys to be cheesed off when they fuck up easy plays.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Oh for christ sakes just let him swing the bat.

[Piggiestomatoes]

Let's go boys. A little insurance.

Bad error by Luis but I appreciated seeing some emotion -- even if on the diamond.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Thanks Chipper, but god dammit, now you're just going to encourage them.

[Fman99]

WOW. Double fuck up by Atlanta on that one. Heads up baserunning by Murph to get to 2nd on that one. Now let's make em pay,

(IBB to Beltran, based loaded no outs for Delgado).

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Loaded and no outs. How will we screw this one up?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Bases-loaded, nobody out.

So... 4-6-3, or 6-4-3?

UPDATE: Well, poop on me, then. Seriously... rabbit hole? Worm hole? Where are we? 'Cause it sure as hell ain't Atlanta.

[Guest Kong76]

Oh stop, L'grabber ... rally up bitch.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Finally.

[Fman99]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT IT'S INSURANCE RUNS!

I am semi-erect.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Braves somewhat curiously playing the infield in. Guess there weren't planning on scoring more than 1 off of Frankie.

Now they'll need a bunch more than that.

[Frayed Knot]

We score despite Jerry's strategy!

[Piggiestomatoes]

Cerrano and Jobu come through!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Maybe Jerry will call back Castro here and PH Santos.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

I oughta be excited that we're about to win here but my God.

[Fman99]

I love when Keith cries because his scorecard gets all out of whack.

[Piggiestomatoes]

Another game, another 12 runners LOB.
