Tax the Rockies Staff - IGT 4/15/2010 NYM @ COL

[Guest Edgy DC]

That's the stuff.

[G-Fafif]

And Keith once used his celebrity to get his towed car out of a Manhattan impound lot.

[TransMonk]

One's better than none...big things from Pelfrey to come.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Nice quick inning from young Michael.

[G-Fafif]

Gee I Am Bi reportedly enjoying those Rocky Mountain oysters.

[G-Fafif]

Love Gary's understated Jerry Manuel criticism: "A rather odd decision," regarding Tatis as pinch-runner last night. Figure it out, viewers.

[soupcan]

Seems like the good guys are getting some breaks today, 2-0 Mets.

[soupcan]

...or not.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Embarrassing running fuckup costs the Mets an out.

[ashie62]

That was odd..a missed double steal?

[Guest attgig]

wow, that was horrible....

Please explain

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

And now Reyes gets thrown out at 3rd.

Somebody's gotta be fired

reyes on 2nd, castillo on 1st. seemed like a double steal. both runners start like it's a double steal. reyes, after a couple steps stops, and goes back to the bag. castillo out.

couple pitches later, reyes attempts to steal 3rd, caught stealing.
wright strikes out.

inning over...

[ashie62]

No spolsion from Reyes trying to steal third. Looked like he had a Steinway on his back. Mets run themselves out of the inning, with young David at bat.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

With 1st and 2nd, and WRIGHT BATTING, Castillo tries stealing but Reyes doesn't; Castillo caught between the bases.

With Wright still batting, Reyes is caught stealing 3rd.

What.

The.

Fuck.

This is unfair, but I'm at the "Mets win today or else"

[metirish]

WOW....

[Benjamin Grimm]

The only saving grace from that inning is that the Rockies also botched a rundown, allowing Pelfrey to score from third.

[nymr83]

this has become typical of the mets.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I BELIEVE in fucking up.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Well, some aggressive baserunning worked out that time.

That time.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

I BELIEVE that Jason Bay, paper defensive liabilities and bad strikeouts aside, is the fundys conscience of this team.

[soupcan]

Ok, ok - top 4, Mets up 2-0. Bay walks, Francoeur sniggles, Bay hustles to third, Frenchy to 2nd on the throw. 2 on no out...

[soupcan]

Tatis walks, sacks drunk, still no out...

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Bases loaded for Blanco, who pops out

[soupcan]

Gamecast says that with the bases loaded and no out, there is an 89% chance of scoring at least one run. Stay tuned...

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Dammit.

Just take a deep breath, exhale slowly, and-- if you're getting nervous-- visualize the bases naked.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Pagan hits a DP play ball but beats it out at first and a run scores.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Pelf with a RBI single!
