Wow. I'm going to have to remember how to work the remote again.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Angel batting fourth. That should get him familiar with where he'll be this coming year.

[Guest Vince Coleman Firecracker]

In the stands behind Mejia there's a fat guy in a grey wolf tank top. Fat Wolf Tank Top Man is very distracting.

[nymr83]

walking a guy infront of Heyward: bad plan Mejia!

Sign on the RF fence sure to be commented on by snarky media members:

Send In The Clowns

It's not a commentary about the Mets (or a Judy Collins fansite) ... it's a party planner.

[Theoldmole]

Willie Harris, good fit.

[Theoldmole]

[nymr83]

the picture cut out, we've got audio-only

[nymr83]

the scoreboard says 2-2 now, when did that happen?

[Chad ochoseis]

FMart, with Hairston on second.

[Guest Edgy DC]

F-Bomb has found his power. Hu has found his batting eye. I'm ready for the season to start.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Bases loaded against Craig Kilbourne.

In the first televised game of 2011, Ron Darling just clinched the 2011 season wordplay championship award.

On whether Keith Hernandez is more Bud Abbott or Lou Costello while riffing on "Hu's on second":

Ron: (to Keith) "I'd never call you the straight man".

[Guest Edgy DC]

New guy GIDdyuPs Duda on the first pitch.

[Guest themetfairy]

Hu's on third!

And the game is tied in the bottom of the 9th

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Valdespin really thwacked that one.

Then Zach Lutzed it all up.

[metirish]

Braves lead 4-3 and bring in what looks like John Rockers younger brother, throwing shapes coming in from the pen.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Willie F. Harris!

[metirish]

Willie fucking Harris with a two run job to tie it up , sorry I thought it was 4-3, I guess not.

[Guest themetfairy]

It's nice seeing Willie Harris helping us rather than hurting us for a change

The game ends after 10 innings, tied 5-5.

[Fman99]

We caught a couple of innings in the car today on XM. God bless actual baseball, Wayne Hagin notwithstanding.
