Yea for the rookie!

[Guest Edgy DC]

Let's give Chris Carter the first curtain call in Mets history.

You said it!

Carter...this rook "knows his place," as the guy he was traded for might say.

[Guest Edgy DC]

I didn't dream of the Mets blowing their budget on a cleanup hitter that opponents would walk slumping shortstops to pitch to.

Way to screw 'em with the walk, JB.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Hey! Other teams' pitchers do that too!

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Whoa! They're so afraid of Jason Bay that they'd walk him with the bases loaded!

They just wanted to get to Wright in a position where they knew he'd be harmless ... with lots of runners on.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

16 hits has to be a season high already.

[Guest Edgy DC]

You know, by arguing here, Jerry is working against the interest of the golden save. YOU GO, JERRY!

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Foul. Close, though.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Frankie says no more runs please, I want a save situation.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

what's happening?

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Gameday says "Delayed -- replay" What's going on?

Fuck that, I want at least 7 runs here.

I haven't once thought from the first inning that we're going to win this game and I'm still iffy on it.

[metsmarathon]

i think they could use some taller foul poles, dontcha think?

[Fman99]

Who knew that in building a ballpark that you could fuck up a foul pole?

Davis golfed one into the second deck foul by maybe a foot.
Umps just went to the video and it stays a long strike.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Welcome to my world, Lunchbucket. Gameday can be maddening.

[Piggiestomatoes]

Grow them poles tonight. Cheapin' out on the Fair Poles.

[Guest Edgy DC]

That throwing error is all that stands between Ike Davis and 10 LoBs tonight.

Of course, had that error never hap'd, Ike likely wouldn't have gotten up later in the inning with the bags juiced.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Don't fuck this up, Goggles.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Wright fanned last inning, but it was him and Tak who kept 'em in it.
