  1. Hey, look! It's Bob Apodaca! I wonder if he's shaken hands with Jerry Grote lately.
  2. Green leads off with a walk. Valentin bunts him over. Ron Darling wanted him to bunt. I didn't. Now let's see what Newhan can do.
  3. Now Schoeneweis is out-the-game. He gets the first out and here comes Joe Smith. Smith will be due to bat third in the bottom of the inning. Who's left in the pen? Burgos. Sele. Anyone else?
  4. Schoeneweis is still in the game, but the double-switch did happen. Endy's in left, Castro hitting in Alou's slot.
  5. Wright walks. Hopefully Moises ends it here, but if he gets out, I wonder if he gets double-switched out of the game since Endy is currently in the lineup.
  6. Oops, make that Endy at first. Lo Duca leaves for the pinch runner.
  7. I had mentally resigned myself to a loss and was stunned when Easley hit that homer. Now Beltran is batting with Lo Duca the winning run on first. Vanis takee!
  8. I'd give him at least a few more starts to get comfortable.
  9. Three-run homer for Valentin. Until Green's homer on Friday night against Atlanta, I had not seen a Met hit a home run. (They always homered when I was away from the TV.) Now I've seen two by Green and one by Valentin. (Hey! Their names rhyme!)
  10. Who's doing all this ranting? WFAN callers? I haven't heard anything, but I haven't been listening to the FAN and I haven't been reading any forums other than this one.
  11. You mean you want to track all of those rows and columns of faces from the back of the yearbook? Wow.
  12. Nice work! I may just steal some of this for the UMDB. I have some information about executives but it's kind of spotty.
  13. I've been bitten by my cat. When that happens I say "ow!" and shove her off the couch.
  14. If she didn't before, she probably does now. I know I love that cat more than I love Joe Petcka. (The first syllable of his last name is kind of ironic, huh?)
  15. Last year I went to Shea twice. Both times I parked on First Avenue in Manhattan, where the parking isn't quite so expensive and then got on the 7 train at Grand Central. Depending on where you're coming from, of course, that may not work for you.
  16. Voting for the second win over the Marlins will close on Tuesday morning: Thursday's game: http://cybermessageboard.ehost.com/getalife/viewtopic.php?t=6141 On Wednesday I'll close the voting for each of the three games at Shea against Atlanta and (if I remember) I'll also post the season-to-date totals: Friday's game: http://cybermessageboard.ehost.com/getalife/viewtopic.php?t=6151 Saturday's game: http://cybermessageboard.ehost.com/getalife/viewtopic.php?t=6155 Sunday's game: http://cybermessageboard.ehost.com/getalife/viewtopic.php?t=6163
  17. I do appreciate this stuff, but you must realize that that Julio Franco picture is unusable.
  18. I think the special effects could have handled Iceman. My guess is that they didn't want him to look like Frosty the Snowman. He would have been much cooler (no pun intended) if he was covered with frost and riding on that ice slide. It didn't ruin the X-Men movies for me, but I feel less of a connection the the X-Men than I do to the FF, Spidey and Hulk.
  19. So now Carlos Beltran has a six-game hitting streak going. And in those six games he has fifteen hits. Not too shabby.
  20. I didn't hear that. It's pretty much how they handled Iceman, though.
  21. Voting for Wednesday's game in Florida will close some time this weekend. http://cybermessageboard.ehost.com/getalife/viewtopic.php?t=6131
  22. Boy, I hope that report is wrong.
  23. One of the three had Wright batting second. I'd love to hear Willie explain that!
  24. How about, "Hey, Mr. Millionaire Ballplayer! Whatsmatter? You can't afford to buy that magazine?"
  25. So did you say, "Hey Rusty how's it going?" or did you just let him read his magazine.
