Funny.

In honor of the Mets playing Philadelphia and then flying to Milwaukee, let's find out who was a Met, a Phillie and a Brewer...

Eleven players, none of whom you could truly call "all-time" for any of the franchises in question:

Gary Bennett, Dan Boitano, Ricky Bottalico, Jose Cardenal, Kane Davis, Tom Edens, Julio Franco, Dick Selma and Kelly Stinnett...

PLUS Wayne Twitchell who wandered over from the Met-Phillie-Expo group (brings regards from Bruce Chen)...

AND our featured active performer, Nelson "Nobody Appreciates Me" Figueroa.

Let's win tonight and make it a happy journey to the Midwest.

Tarp over the field, thunder over the South Shore of L.I.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Cause when night blacked me out, in a flash I found out
Lovers get caught just the same in the thunder and rain

[nymr83]

rain???? not during the winning streak!!!

[bmfc1]

Rain and reports of a suspicious package at CF.

[nymr83]

Oh, that package is for Jerry... please make sure he doesn't open it with anyone else nearby.

[Guest Kong76]

What's with the package thing? I was watching B&W Gunsmoke.

(not you, Namor lol)

I got your suspicious package... right here!

[bmfc1]

Concourse reopened at Citi Field, according to @MetsWFAN and @Ledger_NYMets.

Mets say the concourse was closed because police were checking on a camera bag that was left unattended. It's no longer a concern.

This serious?
Someone probly just left their backpack behind, but this is still a scary thing these days.

[bmfc1]

I think that was it Zvon--see the tweet I added, above.

[Guest Kong76]

If I saw a nice looking camera bag unattended I'd probably look in
it and see what the prize was inside.

[Zvon]

Oh great, I get to watch the Charlie Manual show during the delay.
Ha.
It is funny the way he talks and all, and whats in his head is definitely all baseball.
But I don't need to see this tonight.....

^yikes @bmfc1

[Guest Kong76]

Any guesses on when this might start from anywhere by anyone?

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

It's still raining and thundering in Brooklyn but not heavy rain.

[Guest themetfairy]

Thunder and lightning and pouring rain in Central NJ.

[Guest Kong76]

It barely rained here. I wonder how my friends are in East Rutherford
at a concert given by a name I refuse to type lol.

My sister and her friends are there. If it rains hard they'll never be able to hose the Aqua-Net off the seats in time for football season.

[Guest Kong76]

Funny

[G-Fafif]

Ohh, we're halfway there.
Oh-oh, piling up our hair!

[bmfc1]

9:05 start time. It's gonna be a late night.
