Mets fever, catch it!

Then, as per 2009 as a season, get sick and die like it was AIDS.

Can they replace the inaugural patch with a Red Cross patch?

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 26 2009 05:33 PM

Well, hey-- meltdown averted. With a 400-foot out to the deepest part of the park, but still.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 26 2009 05:41 PM

Four hits, two runs, two innings? MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.

PiggiesTomatoes Aug 26 2009 05:45 PM

Did Pelfrey just pull up crossing first? Looked like a calf. Hope I'm wrong.

PiggiesTomatoes Aug 26 2009 05:45 PM

Yeah, wrong!

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 26 2009 06:14 PM

Just. Throw. Strikes.

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr Aug 26 2009 06:20 PM

GUH. After giving in to Cody Ross, he walks both the 7th and 8th hitter. The pitcher, mercifully, grounds out to end the inning. All with two outs... while Pelf pitched from the stretch. Helpful hint from a relative layman: if you aren't very good at working from the stretch, DON'T WORK FROM THE STRETCH WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO SO.

Oh now I'm going to cry , what with Kase and the Buckhardt story about Tatis I'm slobbering.

PiggiesTomatoes Aug 26 2009 06:34 PM

What's the story. I'm getting the Marlins feed on MLB Extra Innings.
