You're out.

That's a play you don;t see too often.

[Frayed Knot]

OK, we're lucky not to be down about 8-1 at this point.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

This umpiring crew is having about as bad a series as our own Disableds.

Payback! Although it looked like they actually made the right call.

edit : Huh... maybe they did blow it. I thought his hand was above the plate but they just showed an angle that made it completely obvious.

Francoeur walked. What next?

I think I see a resemblance

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Three games so far, and Angel Hernandez has had the least ostentatiously-bad evening behind the plate. Go figure.

(Oh, and shut up, San Diego-- you're not allowed to boo if you bring multiple beach balls to a game.)

Dogs and cats living together. 50-foot marshmallow men. Crazy shit.

Maybe a 1-2-3 inning by a NYM pitcher?

[Valadius]

Am I seeing things or is that Luis Castillo at the plate?

[Frayed Knot]

It's like Sean Green has no idea where his pitches are going.

[Valadius]

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

As if they needed insurance.

Oh btw -- this is the worst offense in the NL making all our pitchers look bad.

Uh, The Nationals won again..it couldn't happen, could it?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Perhaps this trip was a bad idea.

Mets rise to the effectiveness level of the youtube mojo in this thread.

I'd say that this Mets version is worser. Wright and Pagan were the only starters on-basing over .326. This month's lineups are about as putrid as anything Joe Torre ever had to drag out during the bad old years of the two-button pullovers.

Check out the big # "5" honoring George Brett at the Royals Hall of Fame. Makes more sense than our big "42".

I'm glad I've been too asleep/drunk to watch these travesties.

[MFS62]

Well, the not shaving hasn't worked.

Can someone please tell the Mets wives and girlfriends to read Lysistrata?

Later

[Valadius]

It's not their fault. We're more or less on the C-team by now, let alone the B-team.

Read it? Even money says half couldn't spell it!
