I.G.T 8/14/15 Pitt & Mets Colon v Happ

[Fman99]

Baserunner? Check.

Now let's blast one.

[Gwreck]

Rally time

[Zvon]

Niiiiice. Lead off double for 9JuanJuan!

[Edgy MD]

That's a Juanderful start.

[Zvon]

Moves to third on a wild pitch!

Grandy up, Cespedes on deck.

[Edgy MD]

Nice cut, Curtis.

[Fman99]

Cespedes in there as the potential tying run.

[Gwreck]

Is Duda available to hit for Uribe?

[Zvon]

3-1 on Grandy........gah, deep fly to right, ripped, but caught. Lags legs it home.

3-2.

Cespedes can't walk off so this game might go real late.

[Fman99]

Well, poop.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Gotta run to first? Wtf?

[Gwreck]

Why the fuck are you not running, Yoenis?

[Zvon]

ooo, that was one shitty swing Birdman.



OE: Lack of running: he wasn't embarrassed enough by the swing I guess.

Cervelli just Tony Pe�a'd it.

Two out.

[Edgy MD]

Cespedes, you sit tomorry for not running that out.

In my head, anyway.

That Cervelli squat thing tips the curveball, guys.

[Fman99]

Sucky ending. Oh, Bobby P, I am all done with ye.

[Edgy MD]

Phlegh.

[Zvon]

Gary's right. This was a good game. I like these Pirates but not when they are up against us.

[Edgy MD]

Well, it's good to get a preview of what kind of competition the Mets will be facing in the playoffs.

In that spirit, go and get 'em next time. And don't pitch no Parnell in no game situation until you've gotten at least two innings out of Familia and Clippard. Stretch the good arms in a tie game.

[Gwreck]

Should have won this one.

[Zvon]

Wow, I forgot what it was like to lose a game w/o immediate fear of dropping out of first place.

Nats & Giants tied 1-1 in the first. I'll watch a little a that.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Cuddy has to be a fill-in, bench-type guy. He's buzz kill.

[Centerfield]

Completely winnable game. Paid for that fuckup in the third inning.

I am irrationally infuriated over tonight's game.

Irritated about Gary talking about Kang being the first hitter from the Korean leagues. Dae Sung Fucking Koo.

[MFS62]

Get out the rotisserie spit for that "good luck" parakeet.

Later

[Fman99]

Giants helping, 5-1 in the 2nd.

[Frayed Knot]

Disappointing night.
Can't get one-runned by the likes of JA Happ

Lagares not running immediately on Grandy's double may not have made a difference as he's probably not sent with no outs there, but it's still a minor brain fart.
Cespedes has three hits including the only run we had in regulation but also had his worst ABs when the game was on the line, both early (2nd & 3rd none out) and then again late (K + not running).
Not good nights for either Cuddyer & Uribe.

Really hope we have a Duda sighting ma�ana.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Fucking JA Happ, what did I tell you?

Mets played listlessly enough at times to take a huge, pumped up and enthusiastic crowd right out of it, as they did while wasting 2nd and 3rd, 0 out and 3-4-5 up. Cudy and Uribe were real buzzkills tonight. Clippard works way too slowly. Parnell sucks. Colon was great. WE SHOULD HAVE WON. Taiwan Night at Big Shea.

Hell, you should pitch Torres and maybe Gilmartin first, at this point.

[ashie62]

Poop.

That's exactly what I was thinking.

Oh well, you literally can't win them all, and at least Washington lost, so the day did advance the cause and reduce the magic number.
