Drought

[Guest Edgy DC]

Games without a win: four (36 innings)

Games without a run: two (22 innings)

Games without an extra-base hit: three (29 innings)

Games without a homerun: four (40 innings)

Games without a triple: seven (66 innings)

Games without a stolen base: four (36 innings)

And just so it's clear, we're currently on three innings without a hit.

I espect (my typing sounds like Ricky Ricardo today) to be scratching each of these off the list tonight.

[Centerfield]

Without looking, tell me the last time the Mets had a lead in a game.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Got to be the end of the last win --- the 10th inning of the Pittsburgh makeup.

[MFS62]

You forgot to mention that the last RBI was a hit by a pitcher. (Nieve)
How long since an RBI by a position player?

Later

Two homers at Citi, both by Utley, would have been held in at Shea. Only 15 of the 38 were hit by Mets. Let's go to a Citi re-design and bring back the Polo Grounds dimensions.

MFS62 Jul 17 2009 06:18 PM When batters are looking at those Polo Grounds type dimensions down the line, it must be tough for them to listen to a coach who is telling them to "just hit the ball up the middle".
