IGT--Phillies @ Mets, 08/22/09

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Sheffield hits some great foul balls!

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Um... 80 pitches through 5 innings, with 1 hit allowed.

So... he's pulled for Misch? Really?

[metirish]

Utley didn't misch that

[bmfc1]

Geez, Misch is so bad that he makes us miss Redding. That's tough to do.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Redding generally does well against the Phils... and he was cruising. And he'd thrown 81 pitches.

(AND, if you're feeling a bit cynical... he's a FA after the year. If it's the pitch count that had him coming out... then why the f*ck is he on a hard pitch count?)

Only in 2009 Flushing moment # 739: Anderson Hernandez... pinch-hitter.

I tell you, nothing celebrates former championships like handing current legends like Dave Williams and Tim Redding the ball to start.

Nothing celebrates the legacy of Gil Hodges like the manager pulling a cruiisng pitcher throwing his best game of the season after 81 pitches because of delusions that he's going to find the magic formula to a bulletproof bullpen.

Fregosi sucked and Foy was a drug addict
