Let's Squish the Fish!

[Ceetar]

undefeated in May.

BRING ME THE BAT HEAD OF ANDREW BROWN

[Edgy MD]

I've made up my mind
To make a new start
I'm beating up the Marlins and their stadium's
...modern art

Perhaps Byrd's start today is a "show me something or else" start? (More probably, for Lagares)

[Guest Kong76]

I was going to edit this to follow up Edge's, but I think
I'll just let it stand on it own ...

Seems that the wrath of the Gods
Got a punch on the nose and it started to flow;
I think I might be sinking.
Throw me a line if I reach it in time
I'll meet you up there where the path
Runs straight and high.

[Edgy MD]

Can the people hear, what the little Fish are sayin'?

Buck Duda would make a great porn name.

[seawolf17]

Or Buck "Dudabird" Davis.

[Ceetar]

minor thing, but I wish we'd stop hitting Buck 4th/ahead of Duda.

[Edgy MD]

Can the people hear, hear what Ceetar's sayin'?

[Frayed Knot]

Marlins with an insurmountable lead.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Gee stinking up the joint again? uh-oh

[batmagadanleadoff]

Whaddya expect with you know who not pitching today, either? He hardly ever pitches.

[Fman99]

Ugh, Ed Coleman on the FAN (and XM) in place of Howie.

[Frayed Knot]

Murph gets picked off with 2 out and Wright at the plate.
They've now gone from merely incompetent to stupid and incompetent.

[Frayed Knot]

CAN WE GET JUAN PIEERE OUT JUST ONCE SOMETIME THIS FUCKING CENTURY?

[TransMonk]

NKOTB!!!

KABOOM!

[Guest Swan Swan H]

Speen!

I've never particularly disliked Coleman, but he seems pretty off today.

[Frayed Knot]

Nice to see that they finally decided to break out of the one-hit-per-inning club.
Looked like it was going to continue for a while there after Wright's leadoff 2B was followed by outs by Buck & Duda, but then the three straight hits by Ike, Byrd & 'Speen turned everything around. Then, they decided they liked that so much that they're doing it again in the 7th.


Mr. Hand in to pitch.

I still think of Bret Sabrmetric's "Enuch" name for him. His voice is great but his answer to every question is "you might be right about that."

[metirish]

Ed just needs a blow.

[Edgy MD]

I adore tack-on runs.

They are the key to the universe and all that is good comes from them.

And often they are necessary ... like now.


The good news is we still have a one-run lead.
The bad news is that the team with a one-run lead heading into the 9th inning has lost three times in five Mets/Marlins games this season.

WE GOT JUAN PIERRE OUT!
