Thats for sure..I would really love to see Maine go a solid 5. Don't even know who Vladespin(o) is.

Watch Fernando hit 2 out of the park to complicate the pre-Beltran CF position in a good way.

Spring is here in the northeast, Bring it on!

[Benjamin Grimm]

Is that a female voice doing the play-by-play on ESPN?

[Benjamin Grimm]

I guess so. Apparently, it's "Beth."

[Guest Edgy DC]

Maine looking like a career minor leaguer, pitching Ryan off the plate and then getting taken deep when he's finally forced to come over the plate.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Beth I hear you callin
The Mets-Cards game right now
Jordanny Valdespin is playin'
And I don't even know that guy
I turn on ESPN
To hear a voice that's new
I think I hear you callin'
Beth just called strike 2
Beth just called strike 2

[Benjamin Grimm]

I'm pretty sure this is the first time I've ever heard a female voice calling a baseball game. (And no, I'm not overlooking Suzyn Waldman; I don't watch or listen to Yankee broadcasts.)

[metirish]

What will Keith Hernandez think about a woman calling games, nice work Dickshot.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Two-zip on another homer by Pujols.

Miserable, boys, miserable.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Catalanotto has doubled in Tatis to get the Mets on the board.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

MAINE GOES 5! MAINE GOES 5! GOOD GOD, MAINE GOES 5!

(3 H, 2 BB, 1 K, 2 HR)

[Guest Edgy DC]

A second knock for Tatis and Catty comes up with two on and no out.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Popout.

[ashie62]

The chick would appear to be Beth Mowins with ESPN since 1994, specializing in hoops and "where needed"

[Guest Edgy DC]

Alex Cintron is pinch-hitting for the Mets.

When did we get Alex Cintron in camp?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Well, you give him one camp invite, and then another, and before you know it, he's showing up unbidden, like a replacement-level kitten.

[metirish]

Cintron was already there , the Mets Spring Training doubles as the Puerto Rican national team head quarters.

[Guest Edgy DC]

One on, one out for Pagan.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Pagan whiffs on a crap call.

Has Dennys Reyes always been so huge?

[Guest Edgy DC]

Blanco whiffs ona change to end it.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Jacobs' day: 0-3, K, BB (!), one biffed pop-up (with an assist to Valdespin).

To be fair, it was against a very good, MLB-caliber bunch of pitchers.
