IGT 5/19/2017: ANA@NYM—Trout-Fishing in America

[Edgy MD]

Folks aren't coming close to deGrom right now.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

I believe Howie said Cuzzi was filling in on this crew tonight only. One of the umps are anyway, the one who tossed Walker

[Edgy MD]

How's about we give deGrom some support?

[Guest cooby]

Yay DeGrom. Grow up. I'm prolly older than your mom so listen up!


Now, what's the score?

[Edgy MD]

Twelve in a row.

Shit, we've got to back him up.

[Edgy MD]

Finally give up a baserunner and here comes Trouty.

[Frayed Knot]

My first reaction was to NOT intentionally walk Trout with the full count after the wild pitch moved the runner to 2nd, but it was probably the right move and it certainly worked out well.

[Frayed Knot]

You can't stop Rene Rivera you can only hope to contain him.

[Edgy MD]

Alright!

I didn't think Walkie had a chance, but a lousy offline thrown and the Mets get a little pad.

[Edgy MD]

Let's hope he's got one more of the Espinosa strikeouts left in him.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Backwards k

[Edgy MD]

Well, Cuzzi didn't squeeze him there.

Here's a centerfielder named Paul Revere.
Just me and the Phillies and a quart of beer.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Sweet play of the game brought to you by Domino Sugar

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Bing bang boom. What a hero.

[Edgy MD]

Who says Reyes can't play outfield?

[Edgy MD]

If we had the infield in there, that's two runs.

[Benjamin Grimm]

That was a heck of an inning there.

[Edgy MD]

Most heroic inning of pitching this year, with honorable mention to Josh Edgin for his heroic 2/3 of an inning about 10 days ago.

[Frayed Knot]

Now all we need is a half a dozen or so tack-on runs and I'll start to feel like we've got at least a 50/50 shot at this game.

Except if you're Luis Gonzalez, in which case you only need one.

[nymr83]

Whack!

and off a lefty reliever brought in to face him! that is really what we need to see from Conforto!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Howie calls the Reyes catch "the first electrifying moment in CitiField this year." He's right.

Gary mentioned before that the Angels have had six (or maybe it was five) walk-off wins so far this year.
We've just had the one.

[Edgy MD]

Strange that Terry pulled Granderson instead of Bruce, who made the last out.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Seaweed on the way in. We hammer Terry for failing to trust anyone so I guess I support this move.

[Edgy MD]

Sewald is as good a bet as any, I guess, but I was hoping on seeing the launching of The Good Ship Neil Ramirez here.

[Edgy MD]

That's what bunts do.

[Guest cooby]

Wait.... did Harvey start this game?

[Edgy MD]

Welcome to the big leagues, Paulie See.

Cron, don't throw your bat.
