  1. Three ladies came up to me and swooned that Buddy let them try on his ring. Buddy knows how to please the ladies.
  2. Essentially, Eddie K was on fire.
  3. Ed Kranepool not thrilled Mets traded Jerry Koosman for "Jerry Orosco". Added "Joey Foy" skipped around the clubhouse high on something and we traded Amos Otis to get him. Rusty Staub not impressed by Mets' acquisition of Ellis Valentine. When old players badmouth other old players -- value-added material.
  4. National League expansion teams in their twentieth years beware -- we bring our rampage to the Rockies!
  5. Nice CPF turnout for the first day: JCL nailed Seaver coming and going, Ceetar lent his Optimism to the lunchtime bullpen session, batmags brought me the most thoughtful of Met talismans and I listened to a 46-pitch bottom of the ninth in what amounted to class-cutting. Looking forward to Seawolf joining the fun Saturday and regret that he, Cee and I will be on simultaneously. In non-CPFness, great panel of veteran sportswriters and broadcasters sang Casey Stengel's praises; two 1962 historians and John Thorn did the same. Some dude was at the same game I was where Dave Kingman hit three homers at Shea for the Cubs, but unlike me, he caught one of the balls and made a stalking sideline out of it. Lots of enthusiasm and a plethora of insight all around. Good bleeping conference that promises to maintain its high standard the rest of the way. If you happen to be in the area, plenty of good seats are still available!

  9. It's no 50th anniversary conference, but a three-game winning streak would be nice, too.

  12. Desperately seeking offense against Mark Buehrle...and a second win in a row, somehow.
  13. Kirk Nieuwenhuis � CF Ruben Tejada � SS Daniel Murphy � 2B David Wright � 3B Lucas Duda � RF Ike Davis � 1B Mike Baxter � LF Josh Thole � C Johan Santana � LHP
  14. Ike paid Robin's two grand slam doubleheader bizarro homage tonight.
  15. Last time Miami played in Flushing, Dan Marino was a rookie.
  16. Well done 'wreck. And thanks for the link to Arangure article. After the game, Reyes was called into Floyd's office and was told he had been called up to the majors. Reyes couldn't believe it. He was so excited that he called his mother and father even though it was late at night. "Can you believe it," he told his parents, "I'm going to be a New York Met!" Sigh...
  17. Need a "Game 2" modifier for the 4/23 second PotG thread title (the 7-2 loss).
  18. Duda 1.0 Acosta 0.5 Parnell 0.5
  19. Hefner 2.0 Baxter 1.0

Be prepared to shove your way through a crowd and onto a packed train or wait for 2 or 3 of them to pass by. The 7 Super Express has made the above scenario largely a thing of the past on weeknights and weekends. If your destination is Manhattan (or Woodside for the LIRR, in my case usually), it's a breeze.

  23. Lefty-swinging Mike plays LF this not so fine Sunday. Righty-outmaking Jason takes a seat against big-time righty pitcher with high-time ERA and High Times reputation. Sign of things to come? Either way, let Baxter smoke Timmy.
