IGT 05/13- Metropolitans at Yankees

[Gwreck]

Kaboom! Nicely done, Curtis.

[Frayed Knot]

Think we can get this pitch count up to 50 this inning?

[Zvon]

4-0 Mets after a half.

[Zvon]

It's gonna be another one of those games, isn't it?

WHOA-DP!

[Zvon]

Damn. Settle down Wheeler!

[Gwreck]

We're gonna need some more runs.

I think we will be saying this all night long.

Awful Wheeler

Heretical whispers must be amplified so as to shame the whisperer of impure thoughts.

No DH, dude. Seriously.

[Edgy MD]

I missed that barrage in the first, but I tune in for the six-pitch second.

They have two more games to play these guys. They'll be thanking ourselves for the next two days if they chase this pretender early and get deep into the pen.

[Edgy MD]

Murphy's defense:+1.

[Edgy MD]

I just saw a shot of the Yankee bench and there's a guy there who looks like Carlos Beltran. Sort of a bald version of Carlos.

Does anybody know who this guy is?

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Demote wheeler

[Frayed Knot]

Does Wheeler have a swing and a miss yet tonight?
I think I recall one (Kelly Johnson, 1st AB)


OK, now he has 1-1/2

[Edgy MD]

Just KINDA got a swing-and-miss to fan Gardner.

Scouting report on Wheeler: let him wear himself out.

[Edgy MD]

Well, that was about as many pitches as you can throw in a shutout inning.

Let's score five here.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

He's really pissing me off. What a momentum sucker. I'd send him to Binghamton if I could only have him back next start. Nothing makes me so mad.

[Edgy MD]

Guy in the Yankee booth just expressed surprise at Wright's 900th RBI.

"Really? Sorta under the radar with that. Certainly the face of the franchise but really in the middle of a solid career."

You're the last guy to know?

[Guest d'Kong76]

I stopped watching for awhile ... it took almost an hour
to play two innings!

[Zvon]

That's a lot of pitches for Wheeler man. This is going to be a looong (possibly torturous) evening.

Yep-need to plate these runs Laggy.

[Edgy MD]

Grandy looking like a different guy from three weeks ago.

[Edgy MD]

Lefty-righty, man on third. GREAT time for a squeeze.

[Zvon]

Damn, another nice catch by Elsb. Nets us one.

[Edgy MD]

That'll serve.

Kinda very surprising to see Grany successfully tagging there.

[Guest LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr]

Nuno really is something south of good. In terms of stuff, he's a little Misch-y, on a bad Misch day.

[Zvon]

d' has looked August tired behind the plate. Too many getting by him.

Especially too many that get by him after hitting his glove!

[ashie62]

This is going to be a longass high scoring affair...

Nice pick by Doo-dah...

[Edgy MD]

How 'bout that pick?!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Imagine if the MFYs didn't suck. We'd be down by a touchdown the way Wheeler is going.
