IGT 8/9/2013: NYM @ ARI: Rising In Phoenix

[Zvon]

Nice seeing Feliciano back.

[Zvon]

I could see it there right behind him like with Byrd. I saw him turn on the jets before he crossed second. Bad choice Laggs. Nice hit though. Idiot.

[Frayed Knot]

Geeeez, I'm calling STOP!!! from my living room cuz I can see what's coming.
Not only are they giving away outs on the bases but they're giving away STUPID outs: out at home w/no outs; 3rd out at 3rd base

[Edgy MD]

Laggy Laggy
I raise a flaggy
But you're thrown out by Diamondbaggy

[Zvon]

I don't think Tuefel was at fault there. I don't think Lagares even looked to him.

Nice seeing Baxter back too.

[Zvon]

Great play there by Satin. I missed it, just saw the replay. Smooth.
We need hits!

LETS

[Edgy MD]

Hello, tying runs on base with no outs.

GO

[Zvon]

Satins waiting for someone to say "GO".

[Zvon]

YEA! Good timing Edgy. Byrd almost gets clipped.

[Edgy MD]

Probably right thing to change the mind, there, Teuf, but get it right the first time.

[Edgy MD]

Now tying run at thoid.

[Edgy MD]

Big Wilmer spot.

[Zvon]

METS!

[Zvon]

Nice. That'll do. Nice baseball.

[Edgy MD]

Groundout RBIs --- the kind of torrid offense that's going to bring home the pennant.

Definitely the right call (Parra has a great arm) but the late change of heart almost screwed Byrd at 2nd

[Edgy MD]

OK, let's grab this win.

Oh, let's not make this one of those innings where we hit everything on the screws but nothing drops in.

That might be impossible with Ike up this inning.

[metirish]

Seriously Ike, WTF were you looking for , the previous pitch was nearly there.

[Zvon]

Gah. Too close to take. Teach him how to foul off pitches he don't like Keith.

[Edgy MD]

Tough call, Ike. I don't want you chasing breaking shit low, but two strikes, you gotta protect.

[Frayed Knot]

Hey look at that, Ike disagreed with a called strike on the outside corner!!
Never seen that before.

[Zvon]

hurmph

[Frayed Knot]

Ya can't get out-XBH'd the way we were (I think it was 7-2) and expect to win -- and you especially can't get out-XBH and turn the few you do get into outs and expect to win.

Bram Tchaikovsky's career as rally music purveyor dies an early death.

Its surprising we were in this one at all when you think about it.
