IGT 5/9 - Mets @ Phils ... Sweep Day

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

I would not have considered Gee one of our stronger starters, or a strong candidate to make anyone else's, at season's outset. But... well... sorta by default, but here we are.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Thought he'd make it all the way....

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Sensible Horse sticks it under Dick Torino for a 3B, and we have instant stew going.

Oh, SugarP. It's almost absurd how often he's come through in RISPy situations this year, isn't it?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Met pitching is responsible for 2/3 of Freddy Galvis' slugging this season.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Niewuy is an animal.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Srsly, its at a point now where I'm expecting the comeback. Who will be the hero is the question.

[Fman99]

Turner starts it off, with help from a dicey route by the Cryin Hawaiian.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

I love how these guys just don't give up! (Unless they're in Houston)

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Ike breaks through, and... good God, you can't score on THAT?

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

How did he only get to third on a double?

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Still no outs.

[Fman99]

Nice of the Phillies pen to be so gawd awful. Duda up, bases loaded, no outs.

Looked like Pence might catch it for a moment, and he didn't wanna get doubled off with pences gun.

[Fman99]

Duda goes all Rudy Stein and takes one for the team! Tie game.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

As far as batting-practice pitching machines go, this one the Phillies call "Kyle Kendrick" is a pretty energy-efficient model.

Kyle Kendrick.

[metirish]

WOW, please leave Kendrick in.

Makes sense! Go Lucas!

[Fman99]

Yay good guys! Torres with the RBI FC, Mets lead.

I knew all along they'd come back. What an alien feeling to have.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

If Kendrick learned from Hamels, he'll say "That was an accident." He'd be telling the truth, too!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Less than I'dike to have gotten out of a bases loaded, no out sitch, but we got a lead at last.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Oh, Murph.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Insurance!

Can't believe Cholly is leaving him in for this beating.

[Fman99]

CLANG

[Fman99]

WOW BIG SHOT THERE FOR IKE

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Holy shit.

[metirish]

Big Ike with a three run bomb

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

IKE-ABOOM!!!!

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

This Phillies bullpen is, like, medicine-show tonic that works.
