IGT 9/8/11 - Braves @ Mets - Game 2

[Guest themetfairy]

Let's avenge Game One!

[Guest themetfairy]

And we're already down 1-0 in the top of the first....

[Frayed Knot]

Yeah, let's just start out the game by handing them a shitty run!!
At least make them get the fucking ball out of the infield.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Wayne is Wayning this whole game up.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Gave me a fifteen-second description of a play before telling me a run scored.

The Willie Harris positive leader/utility guy/teacher/leader/everyday player in my own mind/veteran/good guy/bench guy/savvy leader story is going to make me cry.

and he gave a nice interview to Clayton Collier of Metsmerized Online the other day about 9.11.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Willie Harris pinch-hit... for!

[metirish]

Val Passccui

[Guest Edgy DC]

Base hit, babies!

[Frayed Knot]

And the Val Pascucci era has begun!

[metirish]

Passcucci with a hit, and a nice hand as he is out for a pinch runner, nice story.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Way to go, Valentino!!!

[Guest Edgy DC]

Terry was cool enough to send Val up there instead of Dudley.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Booo, Wilson!

nice play by Jack....didn't think he had it in him still.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

What a double dip shit sandwich.

The Braves don't even look that good.

[Guest themetfairy]

I fear for Lunchie's kittens....

Agreed on this. Although I've got to imagine hurricanes and postponements and interrupted travel has every team in the East draggin' their wagons these days.

Aw, we lost twice? Fuck a duck. I switched to football in the second inning, thanks.

Madder about Game 1 than Game 2, I am. I felt like we had no shot after blowing the first one the way we did -- with too many walks and hit batsmen as usual.

[metirish]

The two games had a mailed in feel to them, the players, Gary and Keith , us fans, the IGT.....right now I feel like the season can't end fast enough but as soon as it does I'll miss it.....

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Just got back from seeing about 1 1/2 of the games. Irish pretty much nailed it.

I'll put it this way: there was no literally no Shake Shack line (something I've never, NEVER seen, even on a sparsely-attended Closing Day, or during midweek drizzlers). And Braves fans-- presumably from the local area-- MAY have had as much of a 30 percent presence.

Braves fans. Chopping and all.

Just got home from work and read the boxes and the CPF game threads.
I would like to slowly lower Chipper into a vat of boiling acid.
Anyone want to help?
