IGT 9/19/2013: SFG @ NYM -- 'Jad-less Wonders

[G-Fafif]

Matinee. Tejada out for year with a broken right fibula. Nobody ever talks about fibulas when they're fine.

Niese vs. Bumgarner. Lineups not yet posted, but Niese should bat no lower than sixth.

[G-Fafif]

Nope. Niese is batting ninth. Go figure.

Young � LF
Satin � 1B
Murphy � 2B
Brown � RF
Flores � 3B
Lagares � CF
d�Arnaud � C
Quintanilla � SS
Niese - LHP

[Benjamin Grimm]

Nice to see, anyway, that d'Arnaud is capable of having a short-lived injury.

[G-Fafif]

72 Career Homers

Young � 7
Satin � 2
Murphy � 37
Brown � 12
Flores � 1
Lagares � 4
d�Arnaud � 1
Quintanilla � 8
Niese - 0

Would lub to see another shortstop on this team.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Would that make Cal Ripken stop talking about Derek Jeter?

Wilfredo Tovar was called up, Internet says.

[Edgy MD]

Wow! I have to start wishing for better things.

Bad ass!

[Edgy MD]

Giants score none on one hit in the top of the foist. Our Murderer's Row answer that!

[Zvon]

Niese pitching fine through three. Crap, so is the other Bumgarner.

[Zvon]

It is worthy of note to me that d' is in the lineup after the shot to his shoulder. We notice these things, as does the booth.

[Zvon]

Shit. I missed that half and now its 2-0 Giants.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Muffy drives in Satin

And, surprisingly, a triple wasn't required.

[Frayed Knot]

Certainly seems like we've helped a number of opposing pitchers achieve their season and/or career highs in Ks this year.

[Edgy MD]

Yeah. Tovar needs to show these guys how its done.

Mets fail to plate the tying run from third in the sixth.

[Zvon]

That was a tough break.

[Edgy MD]

Two out and the tying run on second here, and...

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Standup comedy from a robot

[Edgy MD]

Scott Atchison --- the sort of show you PAY to see.

[Zvon]

Do we have another comeback in us?

[Edgy MD]

Time, it's time for ninth-inning drama
Hit, den Dekker, and pause for no comma
Make the pitcher cry out for his momma
Strap me in now for some bat-on-ball trauma

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Den Dekker draws a walk on Casilla
Won't be long till the Mets say 'see ya'
Lagares squares and bunts him over
Duda pinch-hits and this thing's over

[Zvon]

Wow, I really thought Abreu was off the bag. Replay shows all his weight was on the bag.

[Edgy MD]

That bunt, that bunt, I did not advise it!
I think, I think, I think I despise it!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

d'Arnaud won't go
Duda coulda

[Zvon]

Edge in the groove.

[Edgy MD]

They face Lucas Duda and will like' pitch around him
Get him to chase --- outside pitches confound him
I send him my hope, o my love is around him
If he gets no a hit, let my rage ever hound him

[Zvon]

Recker up to wreck the Giants.
2 out tying run on second.
