hard not to swing after watch balls in the batters box be called strikes.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Collins tossed while making the double-switch (and, presumably, bitching about balls-and-strikes).

[Edgy MD]

Surprised Johnson hasn't been ejected also.

Bases loaded again. The Nats have stranded a small army today.

[Guest Mets � Willets Point]

What happened? Does Collins not want to watch this game either?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Strike three on Bay.

[Guest Mets � Willets Point]

Game Day is running out places to put pitches for this Derosa at-bat.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

rbi friggin walk

[Guest Mets � Willets Point]

Ah shit, and Ramirez has run out of places to put baserunners.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Nooey walks and Cedeno the tying run bats.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

difference in this game, Nats walk on 10-pitch abs, Mets whiff in theirs.

[Edgy MD]

Two hunnert million pitches in this game.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

12 whiffs in 7 innings

[Benjamin Grimm]

This one's not looking too promising, is it?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Fans in attendance are definitely getting their $2.50 worth.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

[crossout:1eb21ljs]2 runs down (so far) seems insurmountable.[/crossout:1eb21ljs]

3 runs down (so far) seems insurmountable.

[Edgy MD]

Wright was wright about his pinky subtracting wind from the team's sails. But Lary Vanover deserves a bit of credit also.

[Edgy MD]

Boom. Ugly game over.

Double-switching out Bay was telling. Was that while Collins was still at the wheel or was that (technically, anyhow) Geren's call?

he was in the process of double-switching when he got thrown out. That's why he was on the field.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Collins. He got whacked while making the move.

Ummm, one more inning.

It was Collins, and while he was out there making the switch he got into the ump.
Not sure what was telling about the move, it was the logical choice during a double-switch.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

The only redeeming feature is that we should be losing 10-0 or 12-0 not 3-0.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Wait for it.

And when you're making the Nats into a patient walk-taking team then something's wrong.

[Edgy MD]

Oh, and "condom game."

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Really. I thought we were past that.

Also, bases-loaded walks.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

boooooooooooooooo

[Ceetar]

I think the Mets have out-sucked the Nats in this game/series more than the Nats out-playing the Mets.

Not quite what you'd expect from a battle for first place.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

We struck out 15 times, and issued 10 walks. We'd out-suck anyone right now.
