IGT--Yankees @ Mets, 06/27/09

[Guest Swan Swan H]

Probably not. He'd he applying warm compresses to the back of his Captain's neck.

[seawolf17]

Well, shit, the wheels have fallen off this one quickly.

[seawolf17]

Four pitches, four hits, four runs.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

4 runs on 4 pitches. That's amazing, frankly.

[Zvon]

And officially its no longer early yet.

SHIT.
Posadahere!

That's enough, John Sterling.

I'm sure Jayson Stark will talk to the Elias people and find that it's the first time since 1833 that that crazy turn of events has happened.

How would you have liked to have just popped into the bathroom for a quick leak at 1-0, and you come back out and it's 5-0? Effin' a.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

5 pitches, 5 hits. Holy shits.

No, the last one was on a 1-0 pitch.

[Zvon]

I thought Redding was just beginning to corral his pitches.
Then he falls apart.
He looked pissed when he got the hook too.

WOOT!
Mets have a hit

[Guest themetfairy]

At least we're not going to be no-hit in our own park by these motherfuckers tonight.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I come home, and the hit parade starts.

[Zvon]

I'm gonna suggest Church just take every pitch off Burnett from now on.
Man is he gettin fooled.

Perhaps he should have run a little less.

[seawolf17]

Gardner pops up to Wright for the first out of the seventh. But seriously, David -- and I'm picking nits here -- but USE TWO FUCKING HANDS. Omar, go drag Jerry out back and fire him now, mid-game.

Ya know, this bothers me too, and I was starting to think maybe I'm just being an old fashioned, cause I see this one hand stuff alot anymore.
With David its the swiping the glove down after the catch that equally bothers me, cause I know someday he will flub one of those, and it better not be because of that swiping his glove down business.

Hope it just pops out before he swipes it.
lol.

Whats the logic in not using 2 hands?
Are some taught that that other hand might get in the way or something?

The Season from Hell regardless of how it turns out..

Put Jerry and Omar to work at a Thads Steakhouse full time

Well, Muff must've stiffed, like, 50 panhandlers this week-- karma is having its prison-way with him tonight. (BTW: If the Caveman and Soft Rain start tonight? By my count, the Mets have 4 more hits, at least, and 2 runs.)

Zvon Jun 27 2009 07:27 PM

try again Ashie,lol.^ Your close.

Ashie62 Jun 27 2009 07:30 PM

Somewhere Seaver is looking in at the Mets and thinking "these guys really suck"

Edgy DC Jun 27 2009 07:32 PM

No, I'm certain he's not. Redding's day fell apaert in a hurry. So can Burnett's.

Ashie62 Jun 27 2009 07:32 PM

Muffy the ballerina

Apparently, they don't sell toothbrushes in Melky Cabrera's neighborhood.

Brian Bruney..that Basterd

Edgy DC Jun 27 2009 07:41 PM

Brian Bruney misses a golden opportunity to pull a Clemens.

EDC: I come home, and the hit parade starts <<< We sat down for a late dinner and they put up a four spot. Luckily, my beer to food ratio for the day was off the charts prior to 9 pm.

Did Keith just hit the mute button while showing how to hit a mute button?

Thads steakhouse?

Edgy DC Jun 27 2009 07:54 PM

Significant amount of fannies still in their seaties.

Swan Swan H Jun 27 2009 07:58 PM

This is why I never go to this game (the Saturday home Subway Series game, that is), even though I have a ticket as part of the Saturday plan every year. A win, fine. A loss, burning hell. As I am writing this, I swear to you, I get a text from my daughter telling me she got in a fight in the ladies room with a drunk Yankee fan. She said the woman acted like she wanted to get physical until my daughter stepped up, and the Yankee fan backed off. My daughter is 5'3, about 110 pounds. Jayzus. The sight of Yankee fans in the Mets' ballpark, whether Shea or Citi, makes me nauseous. And, honestly, Mets fans acting like fools at Yankee Stadium doesn't thrill me either. I know Interleague play isn't going anywhere, but if it ended tomorrow I'd love it, and I'd say that if the Mets won six a year every year. And now I have to go to work, because some customer decided at 8:30 on a Saturday night that they needed something done at 11:00, and I'm on call, and I have to go do it. Good thing I don't drink.

Kong76 Jun 27 2009 08:00 PM

One measly hit.

Nymr83 Jun 27 2009 08:02 PM

the broken down Mets lineup really needs help some days.

Zvon Jun 27 2009 08:05 PM

Kong76 wrote: One measly hit. Pretty pathetic. Burnett had some great movement and all, but I know Church could have walked 3 times tonight if he just stayed back. Burnett wasn't "1 hitter" good. We helped em, Murph was multi-robbed, Redding couldn't stay on the tracks.

Burnett wasn't "1 hitter" good. We helped em, Murph was multi-robbed, Redding couldn't stay on the tracks. Well walking is a good place to start. We're missing a lot of good at-bats with the men on the DL, but they were at least grinding better a week ago. Yeah, they ran into three All Star pittchers, but fundamentals like taking a strike in the ninth (Wright) if the tying run is behind you would be nice to see.

Fman99 Jun 27 2009 08:20 PM

="OlerudOwned"] Teixeiria makes a really annoying face when he bats. Yes, I know I've reduced myself to the simple judgment of "I don't like his face." No, I don't even care. I described it to someone as the ejaculate face (as opposed to the "ejaculate in the face" face which is totally different). It's the face that a man makes, mid-coitus, except he's always got that look on his face.

Fman99 Jun 27 2009 08:27 PM

Oh baby, yeah, right there, oh, oh baby, uh, ugh, uh, Ah.

(Although some of the Phillies games have started to reach a similar women-fighting-women/adults-taunting-children level of nastiness.) Additionally, though I've seen my share of douches in blue and orange, I'm pretty sure you don't see any Met fan high-fiving any other Met fan about interfering with an opposing player's pursuit of a foul ball... then verbally taunting the player about the other fan's successful interference.

Taking aim, Gay Jay Burnett.

Vic Sage Jun 29 2009 10:58 AM

I took Vic jr to the Saturday night game, yet he is still willing to go to more games this season. amazing. the indomitability of the 8-year old spirit. They should figure out how to bottle it.
