"Asps. Very dangerous. You go first."

I wish they'd play this on the big screen, like that clip from Network about opening the window, sticking your head out, and yelling....

Compared to that, the Mets' lineup is going to look half-asped.

What's the delay?

Without even turning on the TV, I'm going to assume rain. Monsoons here out east.

[Valadius]

We had rain earlier in DC, but it wasn't too bad.

[Valadius]

And game on. Drew grounds out.

[Valadius]

Livan gets through a lightning-quick first inning - 10 pitches, 9 of them strikes.

[Valadius]

Reynolds homers, 1-0 'Zona Asps.

[Valadius]

Chris Young's strikeout to end the inning takes him below the Mendoza Line.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Top o' the foul pole t'ya! Murph ties it with a shot down the RF line off the Trachselian lefty Davis.

[Valadius]

It's about time he hit a freaking homer.

[Guest Edgy DC]

About time? Tough crowd.

Cool to hear an astronaut with a Noo York accent.

"You know? Zee-ro gravity? No big whoop."

[Valadius]

[Guest Edgy DC]

If your fastball is so meaty, keep it off the plate.

[ashie62]

The winning streak is slipping from memory

[Valadius]

You must believe, boy. You must... believe.

[ashie62]

Reyes...that's not good..Would you shut him down for a long rehab in a couple of weeks if Mets are still out of it or prolong this?

[Valadius]

What are you talking about?

The booth said Reyes had another setback trying to run..Tightness in hammy..Burkhardt commented on what began as an out one day injury is now a "you have to wonder" situation..

[ashie62]

KABOOM

[Valadius]

I really would like it if Wright manages to get at least 20 homers by the end of the year.
