  2. I like the little tease, the tie in the 9th. That was extra special.
  3. Wow. Gary, I'll pay a few bucks for that stuff. Your the dean of the Mets!
  4. This is a recreation of how the field looked round 66-74. I have found some pics that confirm certain things and show other things to be incorrect. But this is done. I might make an alternate to reflect the actual name of the fields, lake, tree (yea, that tree has a name) and other stuff. I thought the fields would line up perfectly put they didn't. They just couldn't without changing the parking lot. I may even have the top field a little too close to the corner. But it makes sense, and if you follow the right field foul line of the bottom field, that could be that strip where the grass didn't grow on other pics, like Botz.
  5. He's a twenty-year-straight, get-to-work-on-time He's a love-one-woman-for-all-his-life He's a shirt-off-his-back, give-you-his-last-dime He's strong... I don't get that. So, he didn't love his mom? Or he don't love his wife? I think a man who only has loved one woman for all his life is a little maladjusted.
  6. Can you believe this shit?
  7. I found some good old pics. All say that they are taken at Miller Huggins Field. I'm only interested in the ones that show similarities to when the Mets were there. Yanks moved in to play thier springs there in 1924. The water tower went up in 1925. Things like that water tower, the fountain, the cage, the lake, the tree, that kinda stuff is what I'm looking for. I have found some pre-60s stuff that don't have any of those markers, but are still worth posting. I believe this shot is from 1938. Oldest I could find of the water tower. Which I named Warrens Tower. Not after Spahn.
  8. UGH! Thats the Mets season in a nutshell right there.
  9. We will take a wild pitch.

  11. Mah man Young comes thru. I wasn't expecting that. Tied!
  12. Edgy MD wrote: Satin walks with one out in the ninth. Good time to pinch-run right now. den Dekker? Tovar? Um... Davis? Anybubs? I was a lil surprised Gary sounded so disgusted when he tried to think of players on the bench who can run. Or was that despair?
  13. Edgy MD wrote: Young may have more luck getting the stolen base title if they bench him at the start tomorrow and use him as a pinch runner. 44 SBs for him and Segura. This might be a very good idea. Even if its kinda Reyeish. But he might need more than one at bats worth of SBs if Segura gets more. Have him pinch run early and stay in. Guarantees at least one, maybe 2 chances. 3 if he steals home. 8th? 2-1
  14. I thought Ashie was gonna take us out, close the season. I thought that would have been nice.
  15. Glad they took care of this issue.
  16. replaying some o0f this game now. I missed the very end too. The at bat by Lagares with the bases loaded. You can't strike out there. On a shit pitch. The stuff Alderson said was the usual. He was very eloquent. He will make a great commissioner. It's what he didn't say I found interesting. To say I have X amount of players over the white line and not name them all is most interesting. The Piazza stuff was great. What Mike said was deep and revealing, adds a new dimension to him for me. That's gonna be a great interview.
  17. 38 doubles for Mr. Murphy! Dans the man!

  20. I have missed most of this game. Saw Sandy talking earlier but couldn't listen. I'll have to play that back later. Turner scored in the 2nd? Kool. Wanna see that 1st inning too. A balk as well? Sandy say anything Interesting? Or did they just breeze thru the usual talking points.
  21. Gratz Laggy. But come on, be a man, marry the girl.
  22. "I want my Maypo." ha. Classic Keith. Sheesh, this place is like Shea's Tomb.
  23. Yikes, 2 homers? Torres, whatRyaDoin? So he struck out Gennett and the ball got past d'?
  24. Not a good start. Shit, I missed all this. 3-0 Brewers, dunno how yet.
