    Hefner - 4.0 Lyon - 0.3 Parnell - 0.2 Davis - 1.0 Tejada - 0.5 Wright - 0.5

    I don"t think he has a snowball's chance of going 9, but he can't get knocked out early. Swallow hard and get the job done On the other hand, it's not like Atchison, Carson, Hawkins, and Lyon threw a lot of pitches last night/this morning--just 2, 3, 6, and 8 respectively--so they should all be quite ready, willing, and able. Those totals, btw, make up just a minute portion of the total number pitches in the game: 512 You figure Parnell (35), Familia (31), & Rice (17 last night plus work on Sat & Sun) get the day off, as do Koehler (3 innings/50 pitches) and Rauch (3 & 60) from the other side. Ramos (17), Webb (10) and the unused Dunn are probably available with Qualls (26) and Cichek (17 coming off 1 inning/14 pitches on Sunday) questionable depending on necessity.

    That walk to Ruggiano after starting off 0-2 Grrrrrr
  4. Frayed Knot
    How does he take that pitch???
  5. Frayed Knot
    ONE OUT!!! The scores from the Japanese League games will start coming in any moment now.

    A disproportionally large percentage of people on commercials are redheads.

    THAT'S the spot where they should have IW'd the guy with a 1-2 count. The Mets had no one to PH
  10. Frayed Knot
    This is a curious move in a situation where a single will drive in a run (at least hopefully)
  11. Frayed Knot
    Now we just have to see if we can get the ball out of the infield off of Rauch

    I guess ALL their grounders can't go for GiDPs

    Well, Wright said he'd be ready by tomorrow and ... is almost IS tomorrow
  15. Frayed Knot
    And it worked so Terry's a genius (or something like that)
  16. Frayed Knot
    That does seem odd, but that Solano dude has been getting the bat on the ball all night. Oliva is more hit or miss and a single kills you here just as much as an XBH
  17. Frayed Knot
    Gotta like 5 outs on 16 pitches from Familia under these circumstances. And now that I say this .... a single.

    That Ike is killing us is a given. That's been true all season. But tonight's it's been Muffy simply because he's been up with so many runners on. Even when a productive out would be a big help he's failed miserably and repeatedly.

    Starting the 12th inning ... and the 5th hour of baseball.

Clutch pitching, a late run to tie it, suspense all the way through. So why does it seem like one of the most depressing games I've ever seen? This is just painful. At least Gary and Keith are having a good time. Mainly because this game has been played at a snail's pace since the top of the 1st. Top that off with the inept clutch hitting and it's not exactly going to go down as a classic.

Yes, but Collins also pinch-hits Turner against ROOGYs. Yeah, except that Cichek is a particularly nasty ROOGY who has trouble with leftys and it's at least arguable to bunt Redhead setting things up for the LHBs behind him. Like I said, though, the flaw in that thinking is that Terry might have done it anyway. In the meantime, one of the problems with Baxter is that he's been slotted in RF where he's got a well below average arm.

    I'd like to think that the Turner bunt was due to Cichek being so tough on RHBs but he may have done the same with any other pitcher out there too.
