Flash video stream of the game. It's the Marlins broadcast, unfortunately.

19 pitches ground out over two at-bats, against Johan. This Gaby Sanchez character's going to be a pain in the patoot, isn't he?

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Reassuring inning from Johan there.

This Santana fella looks like he might be a pretty good pitcher. Glad he's on the team.

As far as Cora, he hit a line drive. You can't ask for much more. Stuff happens sometimes.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Did Cora hit it well?

[TransMonk]

I for one don't mind the creamsicles at all.

he lined it and Ramirez dove to take it out of the air, the runner didnt have a shot to get back (and was likely trying to score from second on contact anyway)

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Well that was too fast. Johnson's gotten the last 6 outs on about 9 pitches.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Pretty. Creamy.

Not so pretty-- first-pitch swinging in your third at-bat on a fastball over the plate... and hitting a silo-homer. JACOBZ RULEZ!

I didn't actually see it...just going on Nymr's description and Gameday saying it was a line drive. I think Gameday will usually say something like "soft line drive" if it's a weak hit.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Off to a meeting for about an hour. Hopefully when I next check in, the Mets will have won 5 to nothing.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Sit down Hanley.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Someone get some rosin for Mr. Barajas, please?

Oh, and STFD, Hanley.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Am I nutty? I recall Santana throwing all breaking changeups, but I'm seeing a lot of straight changes today.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Fuck RBI double... Nieve throwing in the 'pen, Howie says. ...

[TransMonk]

Damn you, Jorge Cantu.

[nymr83]

fuck, marlins on the board and tying run on 2nd.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Jorge Cantu can hit.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Leave a little fastball over the inside plate, and most anyone will hammer it.

He looked out at second, though. (Nice play by Bay to get it in quickly.)

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

100th pitch is ball 4.

2 on, 2 out

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

OK, out of it with 1 run

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Johan's got to be done.

Anyone warming?

[nymr83]

BAY TRIPLES!

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

That explains all the sliders-- Bay just mashed a 94-mph up-and-in fastball for that triple.

Jason Bay: Professional Hitter.

GMJ walks and the Fish go to the pen.

[nymr83]

[nymr83]

Big fleshy Rod with a RBI double
