Wahlberg & Denzel in an inter-racial, mis-matched law enforcement buddy movie ... haven't seen one of those before.

The genius that ran on the field is a MFY fan and is tweeting about his deed:

[metirish]

Kinda boring right now, but please Joe and Tim regale us with stories about great MFY's.

[metirish]

Wearing a Cano shirt some on twitter are saying...

[metirish]

Here's the moron

No, he called it a hitter-friendly park, which is the first time I've ever heard it described as such.

[Edgy MD]

Sorry. That's what I meant. Keeping too many balls in air at home.

This is slowly (painfully slowly) getting ready to be a
Mariano love fest soon.

There's always the glorious possibility of the blown save.

That happened when they had the Mariano-fellatio-fest when the MFYs visited in May...

[metirish]

Wright with the NL second hit of the night.

[Edgy MD]

Tell me Domonic Brown is wearing a Mets helmet. Please.

[Gwreck]

Inexcusable managerial malpractice by Boxhy, allowing Brown to face the lefty and not pinch-hitting.

[Guest Kong76]

Feel like the seventh inning started like last night.

ah ha, see, have you heard Joe and Tim mention once tonight that Bochy is here to win, unlike Leyland who is managing this like game 7.

I heard he's already been named game MVP.

This game at Citi Field suffers from a paucity of Mets players. And Mets broadcasters. And, you know, interest.

Yeah, 'cause Prince Fielder is the defensive replacement you use in late innings.

[Frayed Knot]

I only just saw this Salvador Perez guy for the first time recently.
He's listed at "only" 6' 3"/245 but he looks even bigger than that (maybe because KC has a couple of pretty short relievers).
Whatever he actually is, you certainly didn't see a lot of catchers that size back in the day.

[Frayed Knot]

Would have been fine with me if Cliff Lee and Dom Brown saved some of their suck for later this week.

[Edgy MD]

I seem to remember Prince was mostly decent on defense.

[Edgy MD]

Oh, come on with "Sweet Caroline."

[Edgy MD]

Yeah, they're really gonna get a six-out appearance by Rivera. Good luck with that notion.

[Gwreck]

Apparently there was enough booing that Fox turned off the crowd microphones.

[Guest Kong76]

Enter Sandman following Sweet Caroline is pretty funny.

His hands are decent and he's not as immobile as his bulk suggests, but I don't predict too many gold gloves in his future.

[Edgy MD]

OK, NL, let's activate Lucas Duda.

No, with just a 2-run (now 3) lead, Leyland was afraid of losing the lead in the 7th or 8th and risking not even having a bottom 9th for him to pitch.
With a bigger lead he would have held him back but, without one, was committed to using him in the 8th.

[Guest Kong76]

Prince Fielder with cat-like speed ... wouldn't want to get
in his way once he gets a head of steam going ...

[Frayed Knot]

NL better score quick or else Harvey's going to have to start game one of the WS on the road.

[Edgy MD]

Paul Goldschmidt, not fooling around.
