Bay apparently with a sore shoulder

[Ceetar]

Bay sitting cause of a sore shoulder, something that seems to have been bothering him for a good portion of this season.

[Frayed Knot]

Ummmm, we're still not hitting.
Fortunately, neither are they.
Scoreless in the 5th.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Ron has a thing for Ankiel, second day of slobbering over him.

[Fman99]

Quiet round these parts.

I'm watching but I'm having trouble caring.

[Frayed Knot]

The defensive deficiencies of Duda on display in this inning -- not an error, but a leadoff bloop single that had a lot of air and is caught by probably 90% of ML OFers.
And then a two-out hit which never should have even come to bat ties the game and gets us into the pen sooner than you'd like.

[Frayed Knot]

One thing Terry's got to remember when he thinks about putting on the bunt sign ... the fact that our entire team suxx at it!
Including the pitchers.

[bmfc1]

You're right FK. They might as well concede the out and save us a few minutes.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Now we know Parnell doesn't pitch well in the seventh-inning, either.

[bmfc1]

Parnell will do great in ST when there's no pressure and will fool everybody again. I guess Terry forgot that Zimmerman got the GW hit off Parnell 10 days ago.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Um, what was up with that would-be DP Ankiel hit, though, JoseJose?

[bmfc1]

ARGH!!!

repeat

[Fman99]

Another failed bunt. Way to get your money's worth out of that at bat, Reuben.

[bmfc1]

Here's a wacky idea: how about having Reyes steal?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

It's like Collins is stuck in AngryDad mode re: bunting. ("We WILL get this right; I don't care if I have to give away 30 outs and 50 runs before we do, DAMMIT.")

[bmfc1]

Way to work the count Lucas.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

I have a sneaking suspicion both managers are making a little buck-per-managerial-move secret bonus or something.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Jeez, Coffey, put on a brassiere-- there are children watching.

[ashie62]

Has Reyes done much of anything since the all-star break?

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

awful

Better yet, take yer top off, show us those hairy ginger titties!

[bmfc1]

Leadoff walk to Reyes and he stays put. With each game, the positive opinion I had for Terry fades away.

[Frayed Knot]

They're handing this game away even worse than last night's.

It's one reason why the first 4 innings of this game took less than an hour and the next three have taken nearly two.

[Frayed Knot]

We're also going on about six innings of not getting a single fucking hit off one of their relievers!!
(OK, that's probably an exaggeration but it's close)

[Frayed Knot]

WOW! A fucking hit!!!
Now we've got one more runner we can strand on base.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Think Jose's got a RED light from on high?

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Here we go

[Frayed Knot]

I'll take back all the fucking things I've said about this fucking team if Duda parks a fucking pitch in the fucking stands.
