That bites the big one.

Mr Harvey, please sir, can you not give the run right back. I know your team mates do it all the time, but youre Matt Harvey.

[ashie62]

Fuckshit

[ashie62]

Ok....Ike to AAA...sorry Dude...

[Zvon]

Well, thats 2 runs, so.....

Ike, tuff play but you have to catch that throw. Tejeda gets the error.

[ashie62]

Like a monkey fucking a football

What did Ike do(or not do), this place and twatter are alight.

Nobody needs to tell 'Spin about balls hit hard.

Couldnt handle a short hop throw from T that was very handle-able. It was a long-short hop.

[Zvon]

Ankiel swings at short hops. Oy.

Surprise! The Mets are terrible at playing baseball.

[metirish]

Oh, you're in for a real surprise alright if you think that there will be anything to spoil...

[Zvon]

Missed that half and from the summary I thought Matt had a smooth inning. Then I saw the replay of the ball Ankiel caught. Yikes. Good play Rick!

I feel extra bad for Ike. Rips a grounder that becomes a DP. Is there some kinda voodoo hex on him or something?

[Zvon]

Looks like Harveys settling down.

Re Gary: I wish we waited until Shea was cool again.

[Edgy MD]

Well shit, Gary. I was screaming that as loud as I could at the time.

It would have collapsed like a $5 beach chair before it ever became cool again.

Gary really buried Kingman for never hitting a big home run as a Met ("up 7-0 or down 7-0"). Hit a huge one in that very park, among others.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Ike gets a hit!!

[Zvon]

Its funny to me that Valde gets all this shit for tossing his bat, or being hotdoggy, and then after that second bunt yesterday, which he did on his own, nobody gives him any grief. I thought that was a much more serious offense than any hotdoggin he does.

Its a good sign that in an interview Jordany said he is still young and makes mistakes and is trying to learn the right way to do things.


IKE DAVIS GETS A HIT!!!

hips still turning too early

Gary should know better than to indulge an always/never argument. Especially around Greg.

If the Mets were ever up 7-0 during Kingman's tenure, he surely had something to do with it.

[Edgy MD]

Inneresting place to let Harvey hit.

Either their confident they'll get another chance to plate that go-ahead run, or confident the bullpen won't give them one.
