IGT 9/11 Mets vs Braves and Matt vs Matz

[Gwreck]

Out of town scoreboard:

Diamondbacks have dropped 4 on the Dodgers in the first inning
Colby Lewis of Texas has a perfect game through 7

It was apparently too much pressure to put on a left-handed Jewish pitcher. I have no memory of that. And I knew Matz was left-handed, but I didn't know he was Jewish. Aren't all NYers Jewish? Or purple-haired queers with AIDS.

There are a couple of Italian guidos too right? no?

I wonder if Colby still owns the longest current pitcher hit-streak.

Great job, Reed. You made your daddy proud.

Thanks for Addison Reed, jerks.

[Frayed Knot]

Wild pitches and balks. This is like our first-half offense going tonight.

[Guest Mets � Willets Point]

The Braves kill rallies with great defensive plays, but then give up runs with a balk and a passed ball. Go figure.

[Zvon]

The enormous pressure from having EYjr at 3rd base. It happens every time.

Or the 2 times...

[Edgy MD]

Braves fans start filing out like it's Washington or something.

[Frayed Knot]

We gotta quit hitting it to Simmons.
Can't we just roll one to Dan Uggla instead every once in a while? (oh wait, we can't ... he was too busy making the last out in the Nats game tonight).

[Guest d'Kong76]

You'd think the Braves would tone down that silly
chop music as much as they suck.

[Edgy MD]

Great job, Clippard. You made your daddy proud.

Thanks for Tyler Clippard, jerks.

[Edgy MD]

Grandy getting a head start on some post-season facial hair.

Geez. You wonder what it was about his 5.8 hits/9 w/Oakland this season and his sub-3.00 ERA those fans found so annoying. OK, he walked too many (4.9/9) but still ...
I suspect part of the problem is that Oakland lost so many close games early in the season that one could convince themselves that every run allowed, especially late, was a HUGE run that decided a game and therefore was unforgivable.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Ho. Lee. Crapsedes.

[Fman99]

Wow again!

[Edgy MD]

That's a man you want swinging 3-0.

[Frayed Knot]

This just isn't explainable much less believable.

Just incredible

[Piggiestomatoes]

He was just sitting on that. Almost got around too fast.

[Edgy MD]

WE WANT STAUFFER! WE WANT STAUFFER!

OK, I lied. I'm actually only speaking for myself.

[Frayed Knot]

Doesn't hurt in the RBI department for Cespedes that Granderson has been on base 19 times in the last 8 games (including tonight)

And now four more in the second.
Whoops, I meant six ... and still batting.
Deadline pickup and former Brave Alex Wood taking the lumps (and not lasting the 2nd).

Hey Sharon, you don't have to credit me every time on fb when it comes to fun Mets stuff. Just throw it out there. Lots of stuff I make is meant for sharing.

Look at this awesome photo from The7Line;

I do like giving credit where credit is due, though

And that's a lovely image!

It's time to stop putting those lights on every year. There's a new building there now. We're good, really. No more.
