[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Win or lose, I'd like to see some offense show up tonight.

[Guest themetfairy]

Preferably ours.

[G-Fafif]

No EY. CY moves to LF. Nieuwy in CF. Lagares on DL. Andres Torres considered at large.

Nieuwenhuis � 8
Granderson � 9
Wright � 5
Murphy � 4
CYoung � 7
Duda � 3
d�Arnaud � 2
Tejada � 6
Niese � 1

[TransMonk]

Granderson second again?

[Frayed Knot]

At this point the best choice might just be Murphy & Duda 1 - 2

For a simple-stick-figure animation, that sure looks painful.

Carpenter, 3B
Ellis, 2B
Holliday, LF
Craig, 1B
Molina, C
Peralta, SS
Bourjos, CF
Robinson, RF
Wacha, P

Mr T with his head up his ass again, and it costs us a run.

1-0 Redbyrds, middle of the 1st.

[Zvon]

Hey, Grandy got a hit!

[Zvon]

Wow, the wind there at Citi tonight is unbelievable. Wacha just blew into a 6-1 hat off.

[Zvon]

In the third, 1 out, so far all of the Mets outs in the game have been from strikeouts(7).

[Zvon]

Jeeze loueeze.
Wacha ties a MLB record. 9 outs, 9 Ks.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

And there's 9, through 3. Sixth time in MLB history and third time in the past three years, as per GKR.

Uncle Charlie's going marauding tonight.

[Frayed Knot]

Anybody see this getting to 27?

[Zvon]

I don't think Ive ever seen a ball so wind blown. Pop to left comes down at shallow short and T cannot get under it. It drops but we got the force @ 2nd.

[Zvon]

And its great Danny gets a hit but that don't break this shitty K streak.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Jesus Christ, I don't know what's more frightening-- the curve or the pinpoint fastball control.

(Probably the curve.)

Nope. No more than 26 Ks at worst thx to Young's FC.

[Zvon]

Don't agree with Tueff and Mex. I woulda sent him.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

With the bottom of the order coming up? Oh, hells yes.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Or, y'know, maybe that wasn't such a bad call.

[Zvon]

Wow. Now thats wacky. Baseball is sooo wacky. Wacha walks in the tying run.

1-1 Mets

I didn't get this until the bottom of the fourth. Well played.

Wacky stuff.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

All of a sudden, the fastball control has left him. Or is it the wind?

[Edgy MD]

Enjoying them grinding it out against Wacha here.

[Edgy MD]

Smoly crap. Five walks and ten strikeouts.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

WALKA WALKA WALKA

Now is the time for Coitus!
