IGT: May 30 -- Let's take another one from the Phils!

Duda bombing a lefty.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

fuckedy bitch

[Edgy MD]

Flurb.

Oh, fwell, we'll get it back.

[Frayed Knot]

Gee needed to get one more batter and it was Brian Freakin' Schneider.

[nymr83]

Feh!

[DocTee]

Motherfather.

Schneider and Frigginton. Really these guys ought not to be beating us.

[Edgy MD]

How poorly executed was Torres' play on that?

He was playing ABSURDLY shallow (as noted by GKR just before Schneider's liner), hesitated a split-second before starting back, and flailed rather than diving for the catch. So... not great.

[Edgy MD]

I support shallow play (Ralph Kiner always encouraged me to), but one should probably back up with two out.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

All the same, the Schneid gave it a reid.

And nothing that Ruiz could do to hurt us but hit a homer.

Everyone enjoy the report by Guys! on Yadier Molina? He won't be playing against the Mets until Friday but Guys! chose to highlight the splendor of Y. Molina as if we needed the reminder.

[nymr83]

Damn, why couldn't Rob Johnson stomp on Pierre's hand or something? I HATE the head-first slide, especially into home, and I'm glad it was their guys doing it

[Fman99]

Bad bullpen, BAD!

[Edgy MD]

Well, at least Terry is taking being within a run seriously. Not quite helping as much as I'd like.

Double play depth on a lefthanded Rollins? Has he lost that much?

[Frayed Knot]

Four different guys in the pen used tonight and they're still only retiring half they batters they face.
Meanwhile we're like 1-for-7 against theirs.

[Edgy MD]

Well, hasn't lost that much.

You don't need Acosta to put a game out of reach.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

BOOoooOOoOoOOOOOoOoooooOOOOOOOOooOOOoOoOOoOoooOOOo

[Fman99]

Ugh. I hat these guys.

And I typed that BEFORE the Rollins HR.

[Frayed Knot]

Any other weak-ass hitters we can give up extra-base hits to tonight?
One of the Philly relievers? ... Somebody from the stands? ... A vendor maybe?

[bmfc1]

2 outs, nobody on in the 7th and a piece of crap like Brian Schneider at bat... and it all goes to hell from there.

[Frayed Knot]

btw, Wigginton, Schneider, Rollins, & Pierre [u:2iy5dhhp]all had single digit XBHs FOR THE SEASON[/u:2iy5dhhp] coming into this series.

[Edgy MD]

Well, this isn't the ending I planned.

[Guest themetfairy]

Schwinden picks up where he left off....

[Fman99]

I keep meaning to turn it off. And I keep watching.

[Frayed Knot]

If this game never actually ends because the NYM staff is unable to get another out does that mean we can't be hung with the loss?

[Edgy MD]

When the 15th man bats in the inning, Geico will remind us that in 15 minutes, we can save 15% on our baseball insurance.

[Edgy MD]

That's right, Duda. Defy the darkness.

At that point they needed to get 7 more outs ... and it took 6 pitchers facing 18 batters to get them.
