den Dekker: 3 ML ABs, still looking for his first fair ball (K, K, foul out)

[Zvon]

Recker making a day of it. Great diving catch on the foul pop.

[Edgy MD]

Here's to CarTalk pitching his way into the picture going forward.

[Zvon]

Phils heads call him "that guy Torres".

Reckers pants look particularly tight today.

[Zvon]

Nice. Mukky dukky Yukky and it's 6-0 Mets.

[Edgy MD]

Tenth time in Murphy's career (and fourth this season) with four hits. He's never had five.

[Edgy MD]

Ronnie calls Brown "the best high-ball hitter of the Mets' righthanders." That's a strange construction, but it's one I'd use to describe Laggy. He lubbs balls up by his letters.

[Edgy MD]

Fair ball for den Dekker. #babysteps

[Guest themetfairy]

Are Edgy and Swannie baking competing birthday cakes to celebrate Recker's 30th birthday?

[Zvon]

very fast baby steps as he steals second.

[Edgy MD]

Thanks deFratus!

[Edgy MD]

Ike invoking Jesus' name there for all to hear.

[Zvon]

I do enjoy it when an opposing team goes thru the kinda shit we usually have to go through. Phils crumbling.

Ike, stop it. Questioning reality will be of no help to you.

[Edgy MD]

Mighty Eric Young

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

3-run triple. Sweet.

[Zvon]

A EYiple clears the bases. WooHoo!

[Edgy MD]

The three-run triple: one of football's greatest injuries.

[Zvon]

"Who would have seen this coming?" on the Mets offensive outburst.

Fuck you McCarthy.

[Frayed Knot]

Gary & Ron talking earlier about how few runs -- [u:2bubpcav]4[/u:2bubpcav]!! -- Turner has scored this season.
So who's the only guy to get on base that inning and not score? .... Turner of course. He got HBP'd but was then forced by Dekker's grounder.

den Dekker, who has one day in the majors and a .000 OBA, now has 1/4 of the runs scored in 2013 of Justin Turner.

[Vic Sage]

i know most folks like a nice tight game that puts you on the edge of your seat until the final out. I hate that. This is my ideal game... we score a bunch of runs early, and spend the rest of the game pulling further and further away, until it becomes a blowout. no muss, no fuss, no tension. I'm too old for tension. my doctor says it's bad for me.

4!!!!???? Get that kid some at bats!


Nah, I'm off that kick. But I do feel Red is undervalued. But thats the life of a utility guy.

Hey Vic, could this end up being a close game? I'm with you today. I'd rather it didn't.

[Edgy MD]

Hoping that gapper by Utley would give dD a chance to show his stuff. He didn't even get in the frame.

[Zvon]

OUR BROWN BEATS THEIR BROWN HANDS DOWN!

[Edgy MD]

Somebody tell these 11-run scoring chumps that it's Harvey Day.

[Vic Sage]

put it in the books...

[Edgy MD]

A lot of guys patting Recker on the butt after the game.

A lot of guys.

[Zvon]

Great game!
Niese and Torres shout out : Hey! We can pitch too!

"BTDT".

[Guest themetfairy]

Can I get a fist bump here?

[MFS62]

Rose, checking Carter's pocket and asking, "You got any loose change? I gotta' call my bookie".
