[Gwreck]

Sold my tickets to this one several weeks ago. Shoulda kept 'em and called in sick.

You can tune in here from work, it's a bit behind but not much. I tested this the last day game and I estimated the feed was about 15 - 20 seconds behind , or about the time it takes Wayne Hagin to catch up with events as they happen.


Sorry Wayne, taking the piss is all

Working from home today, so I'll be able to watch on television.

If it's a compelling game, my work may suffer.

[Frayed Knot]

If you were Chris Carpenter
and I were Xavier Nady
would you pitch to me anyway
throw your slider baby

And those watching on TV today will be treated to Kevin Burkhardt as the play-by-play man.
Gary Cohen's twins are graduating HS

[Benjamin Grimm]

So does that mean that Tommy Newsom will be reporting from the sidelines?

Just yesterday I was wonderng if keith or Ron could ever slide over into the pbp chair.

[metirish]

A Spring Training pbp man for a lineup that has a long ST day trip look to it.

[Gwreck]

My impressions of Burkhardt is that he's been quite good at doing the play-by-play in Spring Training and that I expect SNY to lose him sooner or later for a better job.

Yeah he's not bad at all, this is apparently his dream job , doing what he's doing now so I wonder what it would take to entice him away.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Mets already down 1-0 as Cora leads off the first.

The RBI single looks like it could have been caught, but Fernando in center decided to play it on a hop.

Am getting nothing but old talk on the 'FAN (as well as St. Louis' radio).

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Catcher's interference? Really?

Unearned runs make me a saaaaaad panda.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Is it me, or are opposing pitchers getting on base at, like, a .600 clip off Johan this year?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

12 hitters in 2 innings of work? Johan is more Livan than Livan today.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Hey, Fernando, time to join the club.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I didn't mean the Chris Carpenter Strikeout Club.

[Diamond Dad]

Gets Pujols with bases loaded. Big out.

Scarlet at the game today, so I'll have to pinch hit for her from the office - but only for next hour until 3:00 meeting.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Welcome aboard, sailor.

[seawolf17]

D-Dad in the house! Long time no see!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

My Craneville ain't happening.

Hmmmm....

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

TO ANYONE WATCHING: Is Carpenter getting some blue-clad help here, or is he commanding his stuff that well today?

[Centerfield]

And does Santana look right? Gameday tells me he just walked the pitcher.

He does that a lot, it seems.

[Diamond Dad]

Let's see if Carpenter stays this sharp second time through the order . . . but if he does . . .

[Guest Edgy DC]

... we bunt him to death.
