IGT 9/17/13 Gigantes at Metropolitans

[Guest Kong76]

Guess I'm on a roll so let's roll with it ....

[Edgy MD]

I'm getting the Mets feed.

Wheeler, Petit, Seinfeld, and insane over-analysis of the Harvey news. I'm going to enjoy this one, I think.

[Edgy MD]

Matt Den Dekker, rightfielding like a pro.

[Zvon]

oo, just in time for Jerry.

[Zvon]

Ouch, they are gonna be runnin on d' tonight.

Ha, Jerry said ouch.

[Edgy MD]

Sheesh. den Dekker has been guarding the bacon nicely.

[Zvon]

That was a very nice catch. That kid can follow any ball anywhere. There was some spin on that.

[Zvon]

ers falling off.

[Lefty Specialist]

Seinfeld is bad luck so far.

[Zvon]

That was a great observation by Darling. Wheeler kinda giving himself away.
3-0

Well played.

[Edgy MD]

Seinfeld on the Mets' broadcasters: "When the Yankee fans talk, we can talk about you guys."

Yankee fans talk shit to Seinfeld?

[Edgy MD]

"Duffy Dyer up. Duffy laced one foul five nights ago."

Crack of the night.

[Edgy MD]

Tejada pulls what seems to be his first hit to left of 2013.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Seinfeld on the Mets' broadcasters: "When the Yankee fans talk, we can talk about you guys." Yankee fans talk shit to Seinfeld?

If you squint, you may be able to picture there being a Yankee fan or two who feels pretty self-confident among the people with whom the Seinfelds eat brunch, right?

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Not to put a fine point on it, JerryFromQueens asks,"Is Ike Davis going to put his head back together, or isn't he?"

The booth shrugs, collectively, as EY fouls off Petit fastballs.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Discussing baseball beards/clubhouse tonsorial matters ("Petit, now that's a sharp one, there.")... it seems a little strange nobody brought up Rey S., doesn't it?

And, hey, two walks to start the Met fourth.

Jerry's more engaged than anybody.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Right? I didn't expect to be enjoying him so much.

[Frayed Knot]

Bad read by Murph maybe but an even worse call by Teufel.
Fortunately he was ignored.

[Frayed Knot]

And now another bad read by MdD--he couldn't possibly think Flores was running there and the throw was low enough to be cut anyway--but we get out of it again.

[Edgy MD]

Nice to turn a 3-1 defecit into a 4-3 lead while running the bases with the instincts of a brood of Steve Lyons.

And with a starter I was sure was on his way out of the game three innings ago.

[Zvon]

gah. Wheeler makes Doodoo look like doodoo!
That was a nice stop. Had time to get him if Zack was there.

[Frayed Knot]

Good lord Satin is slow!!

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Josh Satin is so slow, his offseason running-program partner was a glacier, until the glacier decided it wasn't being challenged enough.

Josh Satin is so slow, in the time it takes him to showboat after a home run, you could put on an actual production of "Show Boat."

Josh Satin is so slow, it takes him an hour to make minute changes to his batting stance that shouldn't take him nearly an hour to implement.

What I'm saying is, Josh Satin could be faster, and that would have helped on that last Met scoring opportunity.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

The three Mets to be named All-Stars in the '80s and '90s.

Bonilla? Straw? Cone?

[Guest Kong76]

Sounds reasonable.
I think the booth misses Jerry.

Tuefel almost got in Muffys way! Wtf was that? And that was a bad call by Tim. I've missed big portions of this telecast and I didn't want to with Jerry on.

[Lefty Specialist]

Henn lays an egg. 5-4 Jints.

Well if you want to hold a runner up it's good to get right in the path so he'll be more likely to see you.
The problem is, once Muffy decided to keep running, Timmy suddenly had to bail.
