IGT--Nationals @ Mets, 09/19/2009

[Guest Edgy DC]

You know, I don't like Lannan. I don't like my team being dominated by mediocre pitchers on very bad teams, and I certainly don't like it when every picture of the guy seems to suggest that he's not quite sure what city he's in. Or whether it's day or night.



Beat Lannan, Mets. Either beat him, or acquire him. Your call.

Jerry again plays for 1 run by having Tatis bunt Francoeur to 3d with 0 outs. I guess there was no chance that Tatis single or even hit a ground ball to the right side so Jerry wanted to give up an out.

Saw a line this morning....Mets have lost 22 of the last 29...yikes

[Guest Kong76]

It really has been dreadful to witness.
Thank god for beer.

5 hits for the Nats (so far) 3 haven't left the infield.
Then throw in the fact that Green can't reach his 1st baseman from 15 feet away and we're in trouble here despite the Nats having 2 legit hits all game.

[Frayed Knot]

Pedro to the rescue.

[Frayed Knot]

OK, nice start there Frankie.
Now finish it off.

[Frayed Knot]

Luis to the rescue!!

[Guest Kong76]

Well there's one for the decade!
Castillo flashin' some leather.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

We win. Hoorah

[bmfc1]

Maine in 07, Johan in 08, and now Redding in 09: big Mets Saturday afternoon pitching performances in September!

[Frayed Knot]

A WIN!!!

I was beginning to forget what one of those looked like.

Thank god that I didn't decide to get cable so that I could watch the Mets (which is the only reason I would have gotten cable).

Took a 90 minute nap and woke up in time to see the last inning. Perfect.
