next time maybe.

That extends Rex Brothers scoreless streak against us in this series to like 15 innings I think.
Of course this crew would have trouble hitting Joyce Brothers.

Would they? That's the $64,000 Question.

We gotta get this kid a W

[Edgy MD]

No way! Mets rock on Thursdays!

[Edgy MD]

Don't bunt, JV. I DON'T CARE WHAT THE SIGN SAYS!

[Zvon]

LETS GO IKE!

[Edgy MD]

Cripes, two outs down and they walk Sugar.

Only Met rook to fan more in his debut --- Harvey.

Great day for baseball at Citi Field. Would love to see some Met take one deep the way Fboy did on the kids' tee in right center.

Good to see G-fafif, themetfairy and SJR here today. Thanks for the beer Steve!

GAME OVER

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Jesus H., same script every day. Reminds me of the 4-game series with SD where we lost every game 2-1.

[Frayed Knot]

The 7th inning, just in case you missed it, didn't merely feature a lead-off runner stranded but, once again, he was stranded because nothing came remotely close to getting out of the infield.
Weak K - Weak grounder - Weak Pop-up

He counts as a Met.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Zvon's not slumping.

[Zvon]

I guess I knew that the pen would give up a run asap.

[Zvon]

I was afk for the Colvin triple. Just saw it on replay. DAMN! That was very catchable.

[Edgy MD]

Know what else is very catchable? The Rockies are very catchable.

[Edgy MD]

Time for a little glory, Thole.

[Frayed Knot]

Good news: Tying run on 2nd
Bad news: Josh Thole

[Edgy MD]

Or three and done. That's good, too.

Ptui.

Bad news wins.

[Frayed Knot]

The only reason Thole K'd on 3 pitches is that he's yet to figure out a way to K on just 2
Another game, another day without a ball leaving the IF off Thole's bat

[Frayed Knot]

So it looks like Matt Belisle in for the 9th - against probably Turner, Valdespin & Murphy



... of course if Rauch gives up a 6-spot right now then all bets are off

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Tyrna leadoff 1B

[Zvon]

Bunt here Edge?
