Hey baby, it's the 4th of July IGT

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Tying run's on deck.

IOW, it's K-Rod time!

[Guest Edgy DC]

I've known games that didn't take as long as that inning.

I kid!

[Guest Number 6]

Yeah! We be buntin'!

[ashie62]

Uh oh, anti-Met Willie Harris enters the game.

[ashie62]

AN-HELL!

[Guest Edgy DC]

Wayne Hagin announce that Lenny Harris was coming in.

Willie, meanwhlie, did a good job cutting off Tatis' hit into the gap.

[Frayed Knot]

What can be better than 4-hour game on a 90+ DC day in July? ... one that you lose I guess.


Still pissed off that we need this one just for a series split.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

POP QUIZ: These pitching/pinch-hit-for-pinch-hitter changes are being made because:

A) Tyler Clippard has great career numbers against David Wright

Fernando Tatis owns Sean Burnett

C) Both managers have a one-dollar bet ("Looking good, Jerry!" "Feeling good, Jim!") on how many game attendees they can get to be treated for heatstroke by Nationals Park EMS workers

D) They are just plain fucking with us

A great question, LWFS. That's 3 days in a row we've had to watch this nonsense. Each time, Riggelman lost a reliever and Jerry lost a PH and the result was still a lefty/righty--righty/lefty matchup. Riggleman had to have known what Jerry would do (since they both micro-manage) so unless he wanted to take out his reliever, it was a pointless attempt to get a better matchup.

[Guest Number 6]

A 6 run lead is still not enough to trust our non-Pedro and non-Elmer relievers, I guess.

[Guest Number 6]

Guess we can't trust our Pedro relievers, either.

[bmfc1]

Howie with a good point: Jerry used Feliciano again. Meanwhile, Nieve hasn't pitched in a week. If you can't trust him with a 6 run lead, then why is he on the team?

Igarashi is just awful, isn't he?

Like a shorter, far less douchey Farnsworth, it seems.

[Zvon]

What's the consensus?
Is this lead safe?

[Guest Edgy DC]

Jerry just issued a press release. Parnell, who was unworthy of the big leagues for the first half to the season, will henceforth pitch every game this season.

Lead?

Safe?

No.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Rodriguez is the last avaliable pitcher.

[Guest Kong76]

This is almost comical ... here's Frankie!

[Guest Number 6]

This bullpen doesn't have the personnel to be as horribly mismanaged as it is.

[Zvon]

I got more extra ribs.
Who wants em?

[Benjamin Grimm]

Can't... watch...

Can't... look away...

[Guest Edgy DC]

Too believeable where I come from.

Elmer Dessens has started 140 games in his career. You couldn't go for two innings from him?

[Zvon]

here, help yourself. Gotta run

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

I confess. I'm afraid.

Put it in the books!
