Unstoppable SHaMs Come Home: IGT 7/27 vs. Colorado

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Not pumped after that trip to Houston? Have some Rocky I:

[G-Fafif]

Rockies in for four. The door is still ajar.

[Valadius]

Okay, I know I was gone for a while, but:

What the hell does "SHaMs" mean?

[Guest themetfairy]

Second Half Mets.

[Fman99]

The Mets hitting in Houston has given me hope (wood). I think they're the dark horse candidate now for the Wild Card.

Yeah, that's right. I went there.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I'mnot going anywhere but staying right here. But I gotsa say, beating Houston is a cool thing, as these were two teams proverbally going in opposite directions.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

I'm with Edgy. I don't feel transported, just grateful to have shaken my feeling of feeling stupid for watching this team, if just for the moment. I'll be at tomorrow night's tilt with BetterHalfer, with clear eyes and full heart.

And until we see a healthy Reyes, at least, I'm still on the driving-mournfully-without-actually-looking-at-the-road segment of the "Rocky" inspiration continuum:

It's a montage! (Montage!)

Now that's a montage fromage.

I like how Rocky "remembers" sights he wasn't there to see like his wife watching his fight from R2 on TV.

And when did we start posting IGTs the day before?

David Wright 3B
Daniel Murphy 1B
Jeff Francoeur RF
Cory Sullivan LF
Omir Santos C
Alex Cora SS
Oliver Perez LHP (2-3, 7.97)

Barmes took away a run with a nice diving stop of a grounder.

Tulowitzki just smacked one on a high pitch, 2-0 Rockies

[nymr83]

a nice flip by tulo to barmes to get the force on sullivan

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Nice escape job by Ollie. But can we generate some O against this Ubaldo guy? I sorta forgot he was good.

[nymr83]

Francoeur has some "O" for you, but thanks to the doubleplay ball preceding it its still 2-1 Rockies

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Frenchie hammered that one over the fence.

Too bad it followed the Muffy DP. 2-1 after 4.

[nymr83]

Barmes hits a solo-shot to get the run back. Not looking good for the Mets here.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Here we go SHaMs

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Even Razor Shines can't stop 'em!

[Fman99]

Running through the stop sign like that, takes a big sack like this!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Big spot for Cory Hotline.

[Fman99]

Better than Haim and Feldman!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

They can walk Santos to get to Cora.

[Fman99]

Castillo continues to use the two handed popup method espoused by such little league coaching luminaries as my own father.

[Fman99]

Ruh roh.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Stoke-Wow. You'll say Wow every time.

[Fman99]

In Stokes we trust.

Nomar's wife is not attractive anymore. A little long in the tooth. But at least she wants my hypothetical baby to get lots of nutrients.

[bmfc1]

Has there been a discussion about the Mets not shaving?

[Fman99]

That commercial pissed me off. Like I can find an Egg McMotherfuckingMuffin at this time of day.
