They could use your support here. Ollie and Takahashi have walked the lead away and we stopped hitting the knuckler after the first 3-3 now in the 4th.

[Gwreck]

Nice assist from Angel Campos (HP Ump) on the called third strike on James Loney (it was ball 4). Loney gets the boot after arguing.

[Guest Kong76]

That called third strike to Loney (that eventually got him
run for ranting and raving) was an inning ending gift.

[Guest Kong76]

Gotta love those lotta hit innings that result in
notta runs.

[Guest Edgy DC]

This Nordic skiing/Ricky Schroeder-lookin' dude is a good interview.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Tak's got skills.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Hey, world, we're gonna bunt here!

[Gwreck]

Pagan and Castillo on with no outs. It's run-scoring time boys.

[Guest Kong76]

I think things are about to implode on the Dodger bullpen
and Uncle Joe.

[Guest Kong76]

1000 hits for Wright and it's 4-3

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Wright to the boo-birds, "How do you like me now?"

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Nice for David.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Fuck yeah, Ike!

NICE hitting by Davis.

What was the trivia tid bit they threw out about Wright
and Gherig, Ruth, and maybe Mantle? I was on the phone.

NY Baseball player with 1000 hits, 125+ HRs within their first 885 or so games. Third player was DiMaggio.

Only other New York players to get this many hits and this many homers by this age. Pretty good for a booed guy.

[Guest Kong76]

Thanks, guys

I know it's early, but Takahashi sure is fitting in nicely as our savvy veteran long-reliever, a-la Darren Oliver of several years ago.

Good call on on Oliver .

[batmagadanleadoff]

Good thing that Jerry didn't have Castillo sac bunting Pagan over to second base last inning. (Howie Rose was announcing as if the sac bunt was likelier than not). All three runs scored with two outs. If Castillo sac bunts, he doesn't walk, and the Mets ultimately score nothing. A sac bunt would've cost the Mets three runs.

Blancomania is runnin' wild
