Doo-doo even mopey on the post-victory handshakes. He needs to be smacked around and woken up...ASAP.

Ugh, fuck Rizzo, slap me!

Clearly the brain fart part was on Jeurys.

Murph may just make one hell of an analyst when he's done with all this.

I know. It's like some people thought that the likes of Kershaw, Greinke, Lester, and Arrieta were supposed to be obstacles or something.

Boy, they're really wearing their big boy pants now. They beat Arietta, and convincingly.

[Ceetar]

yay! that was fun. shout out to the fans in my section who thought this was a mid-week April game yelling "down in front" at anyone that dared stand too much.

I liked Terry's strategy (mostly) a lot more in this game. I probably would have stuck with Niese for the 7th, with two lefties (Coghlan and Montero) coming up that inning.

The Murphy homer was just fantastic. After he hooked the ball foul a couple of pitches earlier I figured he missed his chance there. Glad he took the curtain call too.

Granderson's catch got not just the great reaction at the time but then it was quite fun as the various other seating sections that could see the reply started cheering as they saw just where he caught it (well above the orange line).

Some interesting musical choices at the park. The "Piano Man" singalong persists, but a couple of innings earlier, they played "Livin' on a Prayer" which got a much better reaction. There was also - yes, believe it or not - a playing of "Who Let the Dogs Out."

In a much more positive development, after "New York Groove" was played right after the final out, then the PA played "Meet the Mets," with the full original lyrics (butcher, baker, people on streets, et al.) which was a big singalong for the second straight night as fans exited. Well done, Mets AV team.

Being up 2-0 and still having another of our aces ready for game 3 is just incredible. Let's Go Mets!

? will seriously mark out if they play this at some point.

Quite often its not the song that matters, but what it stands for and this song stands for the memory of Todd Zeile standing on second base at Shea after smacking an RBI double with fingers in both of his ears.
