You'd better make sure that's a test.

That's what displays on GameDay at MLB.com.

I have no idea what that C column is. Of course, I've only been watching baseball for 43 years.

[Frayed Knot]

I suspect the walk to McGehee was semi-intentional but still, four walks in a six batter span ins't a good sign and he needed more than twice as many pitches to get through innings 4-6 six (73) than it did for him to get through 1-3 (31)

JUMPING JEHOSEPHAT A MET BASERUNNER

[Edgy MD]

Wheeler packs it in after 104 pitches.

I dunno. I'd've given him a shot at another inning. It's Florida, man.

Yeah, remember to punch Seawolf.

You would have had to pry the ball out of Tom Seaver's cold, dead hand after only six innings of two-hit baseball.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I think if I was a manager, and my pitcher had a cold dead hand, I'd be sure to take him out of the game.

I see that nobody else seems to know what that C stands for on the MLB.com scoreboard.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

"Challenges remaining," I'd imagine.

Following the hit/sac... Abreu on to hit, Satin in the on-deck circle, more subs coming in the ninth. When Terry uses his bench, he really uses his bench.

Opening day of 1983, though.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Abreu looked like he was in control of that at-bat, right up until he was headed to the bench. SUNYboy over here, man.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Satin, you're fired.

Okay, kids! I'm all in now, baby! Let's DO THIS!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

You can't fool us with your teal jammies.

[Edgy MD]

I went to a New York City school. I have pride when my sister and brother Jaspers succeed and do great things. But if and when young men from alma mater play for teams other than the Mets, or worse, directly thwart Met ambitions, I label these men as TRAITORS.

Because that's what they are.

Hey, look, Reed Johnson is still playing.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

These guys throwing pitches for our team, though? They're PROFESSIONAL RELIEVERS.

[Frayed Knot]

Nice relievin' so far.
But whoever gets the 9th inning is going to have to deal with Stanton and even worse (for this week anyway) McGehee.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Bottom of the ninth, two on, nobody out.

Terry should signal for the triple play here.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

This is the kind of move that's going to get the fans even more against Farnie than they already are.

[Edgy MD]

Winning run on third and signalling for Farnie instead. Yikey.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

put in the books

[Frayed Knot]

7th walk-off loss for the Mets in this stadium in just its third season of operation.

[Guest themetfairy]

Crap!

[Guest d'Kong76]

I blame Benedict seaVic and demand he be reprimanded.

[Edgy MD]

And that, as they say, is that.

Seawolf, you have KP duty until further notice...

...which may never come.

[seawolf17]

This was NOT at all how I planned it, fellas.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Oh go blow Billy the Marlin.
