IGT 77 6/28/12 Mets @ Los Angeles Dodgers

[Frayed Knot]

Speaking of sons with different skills, I hadn't realized that Scott Van Slyke was back up but I saw him briefly when he was with LA earlier this year.
The kicker is that he's virtually the opposite of everything his father was: Right-handed, huge, slow, no glove to speak of but with big-time power.

Three legacies in the LAD line-up tonight when you add in Tony Gwynn Jr., and then for added attraction they've got Jerry Hairston Jr. on the bench.

Torres out by a toe. (if your not watching this is not due to injury)

[ashie62]

Chris Young is like really really good when healthy. It aint often, but...

[Zvon]

1-0 us after three. GJ Young. Now do that for 18 more batters and Ill be impressed.

Having problems with getting out those tough grass and grease stains? David Wright can take care of it, no biggie.

Do you have difficulties expressing yourself to loved ones and friends? SugarPants will supply the words you've been looking for.

Are you having issues in the bedroom? David Wright would be happy to satisfy your spouse or girlfriend in ways you cannot.

He's havin that kinda year.

I think Darlings right. Duda plays right like he don't want the ball hit to him. Not good.

[ashie62]

Torres got eaten alive

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Forget playing LIKE it; I think Duda actually does NOT want the ball hit to him.

The only good thing about this is that we all agree with Duda. But he has to want that ball.


Damn.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Aaaaaaand Torres-ed.

Nice piece of hittin.

Gary and Ron say that scratchy sound during the Guys! in-game/in-stands interview with Jerry Hairston Senior was "the wind," but I like to think that his audio pickup was overcome by the ballpark's event-horizon-like Hairston concentration effect.

Another blast, please.

Not able to get the TV feed. I was really jazzed up for a night with me and Vin. Had champagne and dried apricots ready and everything.

And Hairston is a paternal, grandpaternal, and fraternal legacy.

not even on the computer with mlb.tv?

[ashie62]

Gary advocating the return of Frenchie for some right handed pop.

[Piggiestomatoes]

It is the mlb.tv free game of the night.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Gary says a lot of things in California. I'm prepared to chalk it up to beautiful-weather-and-Hot-Dog-On-A-Stick-related dementia.

[Edgy MD]

My internet speed is such that my computer won't stream it. I'm in a cold zone or something.

[Edgy MD]

By the way, I know we're not there yet and maybe won't get there at all, but Bobby Parnell is our closer tonight.

That's a coincidence, I don't want the ball hit to Duda either.

Wasn't really advocating it, more just suggesting that Francoeur is the type likely to be available and that this team does need some RH punch

Pitching change interlude music for those watching/listening in the eastern time zone

Well, there are a LOT of potentially-available righty OFers NOT named Francoeur. He wasn't, like, shouting about it, but merely bringing up French, apropos of nothing, counts as a suggestion in my book.

Are we sure Dee Gordon is Flash's kid, and not the son of, like, a really athletic chihuahua?

Either way... SIT, fella! Good Dee!
