IGT 6/8 Marlins vs Mets "Rain Rain Go Away"

[Zvon]

Buck leads off with a single. Nice. I wouldnt want to be his legs today.

Laggy moves him into scoring position.

[Zvon]

Holy smokes. Ankiel got beat bad.

[Edgy MD]

Dietrich really is the Jerman Jeter.

[Zvon]

Ronnie: "They're beating each other up with throw pillows." ha!

[Lefty Specialist]

You kind of get the feeling that they'll never score another run, ever. Both teams will just collapse from exhaustion and call it a tie.

Ok, to give my brief story of this game.
5.50 pm, ask here is it likely to be on, ye say yes.
MRS is in bed having nap,
3.5 year old daughter watching "Sofia the 1st" on TV
3 month old daughter snoozing.
So, I'm tidying the kitchen and the like while watching the game.
6.45 visitors call to drop off a few bits, stop watching.
7.00 visitors gone, cooking dinner for the 3.5 year old (I say 3.5 she's almost 4 actually)
7.20 3.5 month old daughter eating dinner (penne with a ragu) I'm prepping bottle etc for 8pm feed
7.35 Far better half up,
7.50 start feed a few early, move to watching game on Apple TV
8.40 finished feed, bigger one is in bed.
9pm start prepping our own dinner, herself's working on computer so turn it off in main room and back on the iPad.
9.30 dinner ready to eat, turn off game.
10.30 finished dinner and come back in to tidy kitchen while herself gets back to work
GAME STILL ON??????????
11.25, started prepping next feed.

SERIOUSLY. It'd be one thing if the game STARTED at a feed, like the 7pm ET ones do, but the game was 1.45 IN when I started the little lady's last feed. I'll be starting another one in about 35 mins!!
What are the chances?

[Zvon]

I like the little things I'm seeing from Lagares, like that backup on the pop out to Murphy. Maybe he was a little too intense there but I still like it.

[Zvon]

lol@duan

[duan]

Ah, I only just saw that, the MLBTV delay is quite long on the Irish ipad tonight.

[Zvon]

Then beware

It would help if the Mets did things worth typing about.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

There's nothing to spoil.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Marcum mowing 'em down.

Looking to the buttend of the order for the 8th time to win this thing now.

[Zvon]

oo, big lead off two bagger by Justin.

[duan]

I stopped and restarted to catch up and missed the double.
Lagares has just popped up.

[Zvon]

rElEaSe ThE hOrSeS!

[Lefty Specialist]

Ankiel is just brutal.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Hopefully this game will go on long enough for Nieuwenhuis's plane to get here from Vegas, then we can release Ankeil and PH Nieuwy next time up.

[Zvon]

Now talk about Rick Camp Gary.

[duan]

right, about to do night feed.
Chat again @ inning 23/24 ?

[Guest Kong76]

Gotta like Marcum this afternoon/evening (so far).

[Zvon]

7 shutout innings from Marcum? Thats freakin amazin'.
Whatever he does from here on out he will not get any blame from me. I salute him!

[Guest Kong76]

Hope they can reward him with a W.

really.

[Guest Kong76]

On to the 20th!

[Gwreck]

When do we send Marcum to right and bring Ankiel in to pitch?

[Lefty Specialist]

Marcum is coming off an injury. You can't really expect him to go too much longer.

[Zvon]

He's in trouble here, but 103 pitches from Marcum? Yikes.

And Miami takes the lead 2-1.

If the Mets dont come back no one besides pitchers are getting any brew from me.

[Guest Kong76]

Pushed him a little too far, I guess.

[Zvon]

Shaun lined up for a loss. If they don't get him off the hook its a sad, sad state of affairs.

[Guest Kong76]

They can't beat the Marlins ... it's depressing.
