    Popped up to Reyes! (Who almost takes out the second base umpire, who needed to just get the hell out of the way.) Nice job, Mota!

    And as the infield meets at the mound, I'm hoping for a hidden-ball trick.
  3. seawolf17
    That's one, Guillermo. Get me one more.

    First and third, one out. I want to see Mota get a big out in this situation before I put him on the postseason roster.

    Dang frangit.

    Hey! A new guy actually posted! And he's from Rochester, which means he's probably cool by me. Come on, fellas. Let's put something together here.

    I'll meet you all at the airport tomorrow.

    We always miss the good ones. We'll be there tomorrow night.

    Oh, dear God. I'm horribly embarassed. I'm an ass.

    But I want them to clinch today. I want to come into work in blue and orange with my blinky Mets pin tomorrow. I've waited eighteen years for this.

    ="Edgy DC"]I'm not knocking any of them. It's just nobody grew beyond a relatively small role and a relatively ephemeral place in Met History. We'll always have this:

    I was specifically referring to the team across town.

    It's kinda like the "God Bless America" every fricking seventh-inning stretch thing. It's annoying, it's tedious, but to even suggest stopping it means you get investigated by Homeland Security.

    Sign him! I want to see the shooto! (Isn't that the other name for the gyroball?)

    The first time I went back to Shea after 9/11 (I know this belongs in the other thread, but since we're talking about the skyline), we were sitting in the loge reserved, third-base side, directly across from the scoreboard. As the national anthem played, I looked up at the skyline; and just at that moment, off in the distance, a plane flew behind ("through") the towers. Gave me the heebie-jeebies.

    ="soupcan"]No, but Jimmy Walker was. Jimmie Walker? I'd vote for him. He's been really funny on the Match Game the last couple of days. edit: I absolutely LOVE the apple. It has to be replicated in the new park; and I agree that the skyline should be there too.

    Boy, how times have changed. You think Fred would just throw out a sign, no matter how broken, these days? Hell no. eBay, baby!

When I see brackets like that, I always wonder about what profane filth is being paraphrased. I love those little brackets. Whenever I write fake news stories for my fantasy baseball league, I sprinkle them liberally throughout my quotes.

    ="KC"] I'm going to miss that graphic when he's gone.

    Dammit.

    ="metirish"]] Floyd and Milledge. Milledge is at least useful as a pinch-runner. I went with Floyd and Milledge,I think it was the game Friday night that Gary said that Willie doesn't see Milledge as a guy coming off the bench to pinch hit in the post-season. Cliff Floyd as a pinch-hitter, 2003-2006: 0 for 15, 9 K I'm not saying he can't have a Kirk Gibson moment, but he's more likely to have a Rich Becker moment.
  22. seawolf17
    I voted Floyd and Milledge too, although I do like Tucker; thing is, Tucker doesn't give you anything that you don't already have in Endy.

    You're probably right, DJ. And if you're on the lam, there's no better place to hide than in a Marlins uniform... you don't have any fans to worry about people noticing you.

IIRC, that was in the 40's when he was with Brooklyn. It was the 30s, when he was in St. Louis. One of those teams was the Rochester Red Wings.
