SIGT-Mets chop up the Braves

[Zvon]

Bobby O in the booth.

[Zvon]

Wheeler on the mound. Tejada with a chance to win me back at short.

[Zvon]

OH,OH!

You don't go for that extra base off Lagares.
Simmons out going 1st to third on a single to short right center.

[Zvon]

Bobby Os a natural in the booth.

0-0 Mets after 1.

[ashie62]

Wheeler's baby face and the beard don't quite hook up...

[Zvon]

Clark is not a glove man at first.

Tejada, 1 grounder, decent play. +1

[Zvon]

Wheeler in a fix. 1st & 3rd, 2 out.

Thank you for the line-up Ashie. I'm a little rusty. L'il bit.

Yes, from that brainless barrellin' into second the other day.

[Zvon]

Mets threatening. 1st & 3rd, 1 out.

Base hit by.....#60!
1-0 Mets.

[Zvon]

Tejada Ks on a called 3rd strike to end the inning. -1/3

[Zvon]

Whew. Wheeler with 3 good innings.
He hit a few bumps & he rode em out.

1-0 Mets, mid 3rd

Guyz says Parnell will pitch today.

[Zvon]

Medlen hurt? Shoot, I wasn't paying attention. Looks like Medlen was removed due to injury.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Medlen walks off mound after two uncomfortable
pitches ... not a good sign.

[Zvon]

Grabbed his elbow. Then threw a pitch and walked right off the mound and removed himself.

Not good for him.

[ashie62]

Good for the Mets perhaps...

[Zvon]

Tejeda fouls out to end the Mets 5th. -1/3

Yea, I hate to see that and then think: things are lookin' up. But that's baseball.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Can't think like that, it can happen to your guy
tomorrow. Again.

Bite your tongue.

1-1 Mets in the 7th.

[Zvon]

WHOA! Brown just threw a Brave out at the plate with a perfect peg after charging in on a single.
Close play at the plate leaves no lane but the ball arrives just ahead of the runner. Bang,Bang!

[Zvon]

Mets take the lead 2-1 on a bunt gone wild.

I remember seeing that happen to fireballer Steve Dalkowsi in a spring training game against the MFYs. (IIRC the batter was Elston Howard).
Dalkowski never pitched again.

Later

[Guest d'Kong76]

It's raining runs!

Damn.

Mets broke it open last inning, 8-1. I was afk, not sure what happened.

Parnell on for the 9th.

[Zvon]

Parnell's beard is certainly ready.

0 out, bases juiced.

[Zvon]

Bobby gets a break. That end guy on the DP was safe.
2 out, 8-2 Mets.

[MFS62]

Where did all that scoring come from?
Who got the key hits?

Later

[Zvon]

GJ Parnell! He wasn't sharp but he didn't grab his neck at all. His last pitch was a beaut.

Mets Win, 8-2

Playing that back now.
