One of my favorite of your works, Z.

[ashie62]

I'll take Recker over Buck..

thank you

Duda running on Chooch? Tsk,tsk.

[Guest Swan Swan H]

Double-double-single. 1 in, 2 on, 0 out for the Phils.

[Zvon]

Brown did not score on the single? Wow. Two doubles and a single makes it 0-1 against.

Ugh. I thought we had that DP.
0-2

[Guest Swan Swan H]

Not Murphy's best inning, here.

Embarrassing. Because I'll have to talk with local Phil fans/friends the Mets have the unique ability to be able to embarrass me in this series.

[Zvon]

OOOO, that was a homer. Review it!

[Zvon]

I thought the meshy fence part was over the fence. I still do.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Hey, at least it ain't no no-hit no more.

[Guest Swan Swan H]

The ground rules at CBP state:

OUTFIELD AREA

Left Field:
Over the fence and in plantings: Home Run.

Looks like the right call.

[Guest Swan Swan H]

Wright makes it moot with an RBI single.

Ronnie also said it has to clear that meshy fence on top. They should paint the top bar of the meshy thing yellow. Is that thing there just to save the plants?

Damn, A mix of a fast Rollins and a slow Duda equals end of inning.

Wrights RBI single makes it 1-3.

[Zvon]

I won't use the ugly Recker throw joke.
DOH

[Guest Swan Swan H]

Stranding a leadoff runner at second - that looks familiar.

[Zvon]

I won't use the ugly Recker at bat joke.
eeek

Wow, Lagares takes two! I like what I'm seeing from this guy.

[Guest Swan Swan H]

EY with the 2-RBI single to tie it up. Murph follows with a single, and Wright can put 'em in the lead.

[Zvon]

BIG 2 RBI single from Young. And Young goes 1st to 3rd on a soft single by Muffy. Hey, I'm seeing good baseball.

GO WRIGHT!

[Zvon]

Don't give the lead right back Hef.

[Frayed Knot]

Is it my imagination, or has the opposition had like 75 infield hits against us in the past week?

We were just talking about that. Sure seems like it.

All season. I don't think our MI are particularly rangy (nor is David necessarily) plus Duda now isn't either.

[Zvon]

Damn, Lagares was playing super shallow on Ruiz. Good thing he goes back on the ball well. Nice catch, big out.

[Fman99]

Audio only, Josh and Howie on XM, thanks to the old WPIX/FIOS two holey pounding I take in Syracuse every year.

[Zvon]

Exciting baseball! Lagares doubles in the gap and Duda scores from first. Nice slide by Lucas. He just made it.

oe: I was not paying attention while Hef was up. Lags was not thrown out stealing? I could hear the booth but not see the action.

4-3 Mets

[Guest Swan Swan H]

Hefner struck out while Lagares was stealing.

Ahh. TY. I have to learn to type without looking at the keys.
So looks like Hamels and Hefner are both out of the game in the 7th.

[Ceetar]

I was all excited about Lagares starting to hit until I realized he hasn't walked since April 28th and that's not going to cut it.
