Mets played Pirates a tornado ripped through Queens last September. And guess what there a National Weather Service "watch" on for until 8 PM?

An injury to Carlos Beltran?

Probably.

We've got tickets, and the baby's with LWMotherGrandmother, so we're going.

I'm not sure that BetterHalfer knows about the tornado watch. Our little surprise, eh, guys?

Play the "somewhere over the rainbow" song on the way the game and then claim "Don't say I didn't warn you!"

Be careful as all get-out. Remember what happened last time.

A flash storm that followed tornado warnings powered through New York City Thursday evening, with winds up to 70 miles per hour knocking down trees, damaging buildings, destroying cars and causing the death of at least one person. The severe weather wreaked havoc on the city�s transportation system in the middle of the evening commute. All Long Island Rail Road service was suspended out of Manhattan due to downed trees on the tracks near Sunnyside, Queens. LIRR service was also disrupted between Brooklyn and Queens, and the entire 7 subway line was inoperative for several hours. Several roadways were closed to vehicular traffic because of the debris. A woman was killed when a tree toppled onto her vehicle on the Grand Central Parkway near Jewel Avenue, authorities said.

It may be because I just got through watching Season 2 of United States of Tara, which takes place in Kansas, but tornadoes are nothing to fuck around with.

Then again, this is just a watch. Either way, possible severe weather.

[G-Fafif]

Looks pretty untornadic out there, thankfully.

[metirish]

Bay showing why he's an excellent defensive replacement.

It is tornadic in Central NJ, but fuck, its only NJ!

[ashie62]

Ruben Tejada makes a case for himself 2-0 NY

[metirish]

Tejada with a dying quail? that plates two.

[ashie62]

Who will go farther next season as a Met..Justin Turner Overdrive or or Grilled Ruben Tejada?

[Frayed Knot]

You gotta be fuckin' kidding me with this!
The bats are giving so little margin for error that it leads you to believe that every play NOT made is going to lead to a disaster ... particularly in the late innings.

[ashie62]

Like these dribblers?

Willie Harris fucked up.

[Frayed Knot]

They haven't hit a ball out of the infield all inning but at this point you'd be happy to get out of here only down by one or two.

[bmfc1]

Unfucking believable. Does shit like this happen to other teams?

[HahnSolo]

Pretty clear to me his foot was on the bag. Blown call, even if Willie didn't handle it correctly.

[ashie62]

Angel Pagan fucked up.

Pretty clear? I'd say 70/30 yes...Trying to make a tag in that split second an ump has does not help.

[Gwreck]

I'll take a triple play right here, thanks Pedro.

And when I say one or two I mean six.



btw, coming into this game the Mets have been out-scored in the 7th inning 36-13 this season.

Well I would hope the ump is looking at the foot on the bag, despite the tag attempt.

Harris was slightly closer to the bag than me.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

jesus H

[ashie62]

Willie Harris abused the Mets as an opponent.

Now he is abusing the Mets as a member.

[Frayed Knot]

Seven hits that inning - and the only one that didn't hit a NYM glove first was the one that landed at Beltran's feet.


And now that we're into middle reliever territory I'll just assume a six-up/six-down situation so we can get to the closer that much quicker.

[metirish]

Oh I don't know Ron why things went so bad so quickly, maybe though it's because it's a shit team?
