IGT April 18 2012 Mets v Braves Gay Dame

[Benjamin Grimm]

I just now checked in for the first time, and the Mets have already given up the lead twice and trail by three.

Not a great day for Dickey, huh?

This is the Turner Field experience I know and loathe.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Relax guys, Daybidrye will save us.

[Frayed Knot]

Wright ties Straw for team RBI lead even though on an ugly infield single.

Wright now on base at least twice in every game he's played this year.

[nymr83]

Wright gets the RBI on that, its ruled a single, and Murphy takes 3rd on the throwing erro, right?

[Benjamin Grimm]

Tying run on base. Ike Davis up. Rain delay.

Not an official game yet, so it's possible that Darryl will temporarily regain the RBI crown.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Oops, no more delay. Ike has grounded out.

[nymr83]

No rain delay just a pitching change!

[nymr83]

Ike grounded into a fielder's choice, Murphy out at home.

Bay lines out (shit)

Now its up to Duda

[nymr83]

Too many missed opportunities for the Mets today already

[Frayed Knot]

Two guys thrown out at the plate this game on plays when neither should have been going.

[Fman99]

Ugh, if you give up 2 runs for every run you score, well, hell, I don't see how you can win that way.

[nymr83]

Mets might need to call up an emegency innings eater after Dickey follows Santana to an early exit

I know. Stop scoring and keep it close.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

RA Dickey would like to interrupt this book tour to serve some meatballs.

[Fman99]

Now in rain delay Sez Yahoo.

I got an alert for a delay at 1:05, and yet nothing actually delayed.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

They're not really delays, per se-- the wormTurners are just taking their time between innings grooming the puddles.

I'm not sure how much bad luck has to do with it, but Teufel appears to have made the wrong decision in sending runners something like 80% of the time today, only nailing the gimmes. He's looking Razor-sharp so far this year in general.

[G-Fafif]

Teufel should only send runners who bat against lefties. Backman should send runners who bat against righties.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

FUCKing Bay.

[metirish]

FUCKing Bobby

[Ceetar]

you left out Fucking Cedeno

And yet another 1-for-2 exchange!
You don't usually see buy-one-get-two sales like this outside of Jos A. Bank clothing stores.

[Ceetar]

maybe throw in a FUCKing Chipper there too, since it doesn't seem right without one.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

What exactly did Bay do?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Tracking a liner by Chipper... had it lined up... then had it bounce off his glove just before he hit the wall.

Between the mess and the moisture, this feels like one of those old-school Joe Robbie specials.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Dinky hits by Bay and Duda, now that, y'know, all those troublesome runners aren't there, that were around to distract them earlier.

[sarcastic applause]

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

FUCKing Hairston.
