It's a 3-2 game. It feels like they should be up by seven.

[Edgy MD]

Harper can't get it by the Great Wall of DooDoo.

I like that Dick's ad about all the things that go on between pitches, but the pitcher looks like Calvin Schiraldi.

[Edgy MD]

Wow, the Mets are living on the warning track but not scoring accordingly.

Come ons, Young.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Nice double by Hawkman!

Yea. This is gonna be one a those games isn't it. Course it is. Its the Mets and they have a day game in Atlanta tomorrow. So of course this game is going to go extra innings. Right?

Yo, that commercial is awesome. Excellent portrayal of baseball on a screen.

Niese gets a double! Look under your seats.
YOU GET A DOUBLE! YOU GET A DOUBLE! EVERYBODY GETS A DOUBLE!

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Murph gets that run right back!

Steer away from fatalism at all turns. Trust me, it can only lead to madness.

Hey, sometimes bunting helps! Muffie with the RBI knock after the EY sacrifice.

These dingbats at ESPN, incidentally, mention the RBI in passing, too busy telling their own dumb ass stories to call the game.

Might be too late for me.

Murphy vs Washington this season: .383/.413/.567 -- and that was before tonight where he's tacked on a single, double, and was robbed of a double.

[Edgy MD]

Coming around to the notion that Niesey doesn't have much more than Ohlendorf tonight.

[Edgy MD]

How's that for den Dekking?

[Frayed Knot]

No problems, we've got a man there.

Was it a great grab? I was indisposed.

[Zvon]

Did anyone see the homer in the Skank game where the ball rode along the top of the wall? I've seen balls bounce off the top of the wall and go out (or come back in) but never ever saw a ball bounce for about 20 feet on the very top of the wall as it deflected off a glove and fans and stuff. Pretty amazin'.

I just liked the fact that the Yanx got burned by a 321 ft HR for a change.
The one Adam Jones hit four batters later wasn't a cheapie though.

Nope. Just a great job getting back there.

[Zvon]

Oh great. Is Niese hurt now? Eycurumba.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Oh hell, what was that with Niese's calf?

[Theoldmole]

What happened to Nieae?

[Guest themetfairy]

Fingers crossed, it looked like it could have been a cramp.

Unclear - the radio broadcast might give you better info.
It's a hot, humid night in DC, could be just cramps.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

Young's making a case to come back next year.

TheOldMole wrote: What happened to Nieae?

Turns out he might have had a cramp, something with his leg that seems to be a small deal. But we'll see.

I have to assume about a week ago Young was told not only that he has a 24/7 green light, but that he should most definitely steal second any and every chance he has.

[Frayed Knot]

Left calf cramp say the radio guys.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

What the heck, Acthison? Stop bouncing them!

And it comes back to bite him in the ass.

[Frayed Knot]

Damn ... 2-outs and 0-2 and then single, WP, WP, Single nets them a run they shouldn't have had.

[Guest metsguyinmichigan]

And too much discussion about Yadier Molina. Neck tats should automatically make someone ineligible for the MVP.

No Schaefer For Old Man
