Tim-ber! Lincecum to Fall: IGT 5/9/2010 SFG @ NYM

[G-Fafif]

Cy Young vs. Cy Not? I'll take our chances with Ollie.

Like I have a choice.

Happy Birthday to all the mothers out there tomorrow. May the Mets present you with a broom.

1. The Mets have never lost a game started by Lincecum.

2. Lincecum's ERA against the Mets is higher than against any other National League team.

Remember, Red, hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies.

Who or what is the shitpipe in this scenario?

[Guest Edgy DC]

Walkoff homer by third-string catcher Fernando Tatis.

I was trying to think of if that counts. It's a stretch I guess, but I'll take it? Unless we call up Thole for a cameo?

[Guest Edgy DC]

It counts if he's catching. Else, a little Santos-on-Papebon action is cool too.

Somebody slip The Freak some oregano

[Benjamin Grimm]

I wouldn't object to a walkoff homer by a left fielder. Or a shortstop.

[G-Fafif]

Everybody takes the field in shin guards.

[ashie62]

Ollie gets to face a fugly Giants lineup.

Serious win for the Metropolitans if they can score off this kid.

[DocTee]

SF announcers keys to the game:

1. Go get'em scrubs! (Bochy and his staff--including ex-MFY coaches Roberto Kelly and Hensley Meulens--think Lincecum can get by without the regular lineup)
2. When in doubt, walk the catcher. (First time in MLB history that two consecutive games were ended by a walk-off HR from the catcher)

[Guest Edgy DC]

We have sighting of the arm-rolling woman!

[TransMonk]

Wright ends the first looking...it's like deja vu.

[Elster88]

Second and third, one out...and Bay and Wright both strike out.

In their defense, I heard Lincecum is a half-decent pitcher.

[Guest Kong76]

That curve thing Freak has going is scary. Reminds me of
Lord Charles back in the 80's.

[Elster88]

Keith says the pitch had such a late break and that it shoulda been a passed ball instead of the wild pitch that it was scored.

[Elster88]

Infield in (sorta, Reyes was halfway up the dirt) and the grounder still plates the runner on third. Reyes maybe had a good shot at him.

[Guest Kong76]

Ollie being Ollie

[TransMonk]

Ollie pisses the shit out of me!

[ashie62]

2-0 to freak may as well be 12..Later

[Guest Kong76]

Gary: "and Jerry Manuel's patience appear to be wearing thin."

Mine f'n too.

[bmfc1]

Why is this piece of crap on the team?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Sarcastic cheering-- as in reaction to an Ollie strike on 3-0-- is by far my favorite New York crowd reaction.

Pop up retires Schierholtz-- two down.

[Elster88]

Ollie is still all over the place, the hitters are bailing him out now.

Got a good one after Ollie threw a strike on 2-0 to Whiteside.
