Mets are 2-5 in Puerto Rico.

thole still around, and I doubt they'd ship him all the way back to Buffalo from down there, so probably here for three? Maybe they'll even use him?

[Guest attgig]

the forecast looks a bit ominous

[G-Fafif]

Dave Lennon reporting:

Now very loud thunderstorms in the neighborhood.

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Puerto Rico...or as Jay Ferguson calls it, Thunder Island!

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Forecast calls for rain-- scattered thunderstorms, specifically-- during the entirety of the series.

Wet, slick artificial turf with iffy drainage. This should be nice and safe for all parties involved.

[metirish]

the missus tells me the weather has been horrible there for weeks, near constant rain, bmfc can attest to that.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

I had that 45. Very thrilling with her dress undone and stuff.

I just read that Jay Ferguson wrote the theme song to "The Office"

[Guest themetfairy]

Jose leads off with a single, and promptly gets picked off of first.

Which was probably a moot point, since Ruben Tejada's groundout would likely have been a DP ball.

[Zvon]

Shame on you Jose.
Singles to start the game and gets picked off.

He was really caught off bad, and the way he went back in there, head first and trying to reach around a blind swinging tag....I'd rather see him out than breaking his hand.

Heads up throw by Paulino, behind him at 1st after Reyes did a lil deek I'm goin move..

[Guest themetfairy]

Keith believes that Bunting Is For Losers.

[Frayed Knot]

Keep that tag on him Ruben. If he slides off the bag (and I think he did) you might get the call.

[Zvon]

*shakes head.
The booth is right.
Infield in there was a bad move.
We even got the grounder to short and it didn't work.
Dagnabbitt.


OOOOooo, someone had to catch that foul pop up!

[Guest themetfairy]

The Mets look very uncomfortable playing on this non-grass matter.

[Zvon]

Dickys look like he's trying to find out what he's got.

I bet he will eventually be pitchin' tricky.

[Guest themetfairy]

Uggla's bat winds up in the stands, down the third base line well into outfield territory. Not only does some guy catch the bat, but then he throws it back onto the field. WTF?

[Guest themetfairy]

Dickey gives up one run on no hits in the first.

[Zvon]

That was funny,lol.

Uggla swings hard, loses his bat, and it went FLYIN, way far, into the stands.
Lands on (or by) a fat guy, he gets up, waves everyone off, and throws it back on the field.

[Zvon]

that was pretty classic.

[Guest themetfairy]

Jason Bay wants nothing to do with this artificial turf crap. His Ka-Boom ties the game 1-1!

[Zvon]

Zvon - was that one of my pictures?[/quote:16t4e0ab]

May have been. I think I just did a google one night when I was looking to make a BayBoom.

I know I got a Davis from your pics.
Its up my sleeve.

[Guest themetfairy]

Cool!

[Zvon]

All that turf talk was interesting, but what I'd like to know is why they feel they need to use artificial turf there?

[bmfc1]

I'm glad that the ball buster is busting Yankee balls.

[Zvon]

Ugh, Tejada robbed.

I want his hitting streak to live on.
He will have a few more chances.

[Guest themetfairy]

Nolasco's ground rules double breaks up the no-no.

I was thinking that it would be fitting for the Mets first no hitter to be one where the opposing team scored a run....

[Guest themetfairy]

Fuck!

Sanchez's 2-rbi double makes it 3-1 Fish

[Zvon]

Now 4-1.
I went AFK at the innings start and just got back.

Carp. I hate coming back to news like this.

Come on Dicky!
Find your groovethang.

[Zvon]

REYES!

You gotta make those plays man!
