2-0 Mets in the first.

[Zvon]

That homer tied Wright with Piazza at 220

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Interleague play may be overrated but I still get a thrill knowing some kid in Kansas just saw David Wright do hos thing for the first time.

[Zvon]

Wow. Byrd continues to blow me away. Fantastic diving catch on a bloop to short right.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Is Dillon Gee the most incompetent bunter in the history of the Mets yet? What a disgrace.

JeezeLoueeze. WTF Gee? Still can't bunt. That's sad.

[Edgy MD]

Man, Billy Butler's a big-lookin' baby.

[Edgy MD]

Like the way they're working Dyson but get it over.

[Edgy MD]

Thanks for playing shallow enough, EY.

[Edgy MD]

Gee coming back in the eighth. How about that?

I like it.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Looks like a dumb decision now.

[Guest Kong76]

Short lived.

[Edgy MD]

Going to Rice not looking much smarter as he HbPs all over the mound with his first pitch.

[Frayed Knot]

Royals have a Yanqui rally: a walk, a HBP, and then two grounders hit too shitty to turn a DP

[Frayed Knot]

Haven't seen a 'back heel' that good outside of the Premier League

[Zvon]

lol,wow. What a job covering by Hawkins. Ike almost got him killed. He had the presence of mind to stick his leg back and get the bag while skidding over it.

[Edgy MD]

Man, I don't know who to hand it to first --- Hawkins for showing the dexterity of a many 20 years younger, or Moustakas for not kicking him in the head.

But I don't know if the fever is pumping through Ike or not, but he just almost got a guy killed.

[Edgy MD]

I say let Hawk at least start the ninth, but whaddoIknow?

[Edgy MD]

Thought Murphy had that.

[Edgy MD]

Man, righties couldn't touch that guy.

[Edgy MD]

Where's that no-doubles dee?

[Edgy MD]

Man, how do you walk that guy?

[Fman99]

Ugh. Aardsma pitchiiing pooorleee.

[Frayed Knot]

Y'know, one way to handle a short bullpen is to NOT pull an effective Hawkins after, what?, about 10 pitches.

The other way to handle a short bullpen is to NOT go hitless after the 3rd inning.*

* oe: Ike's 4th inning single was actually their last hit
