MLB.TV is giving away all games for free today. That's pretty kool.

Win or lose, take us out Ashie. I think everyone will agree if I ask if you can close the season, bi-pass the tradition of winning, as the Mets have these last years. Three games left in 2013. Would you do us the honor?

In the recreation of Butterball Field I have taken some liberties. I'm not sure, but after scoping it out I figure they had to move the light pole. The reconstructed picture will be reflecting this change. If you think I'm wrong, and I very well could be, speak your mind before I post the remake. I hope to get it up tonight during the game. That last sentence didn't come out right. Up top is The Tree Of Met Life And Good Fortune. The dotted line runs where the Sadecki Spot side of the field would fall into place with the lightpole in its current position. The other pic shows the switcheroo.

I've had this photo for a while and always assumed that the structure was some observation tower for the coaches to view the activity on the field from above. A giant metal spiral stair coach tower. lol. If only the Mets had such an imagination. These pictures are great. Well, the Met ones. The others are okay. Looks like I'm gonna have to remake an early 60s Kranepool, though maybe that can be his '68 card. I'll have to do a sideburn check.

Both of em worry me. I don't like to worry any more than I have to watching the Mets. Davis worries me the least if I can be okay with the fact he may have reached his career peak already, which would be rather sad. Duda's gotta be a first baseman somewhere tho. That's all he's good for on the field. If they just pick one, move the other, I'll hope for the best. If they move em both I'm sure we'll get back needed pieces. If not another 1st baseman than Muffy can always play 1st. I wanna say just make up your mind but there really is no rush.

Hey guys! Lets take a road trip! A google road trip! Come on, come with me! I'm gonna go find the Sadecki Spot!! Oooo, I got lost a few times. I keep getting sidetracked. There's so much of the world I want to see,... through google map. So come on, lets go! I won't get lost anymore. Lets follow the line to the green bubble looking thing. Well, here it is. And here I am. I don't see any baseball field. This is not the Sadecki Spot I don't think. Awww, am I lost again? OW! I stepped in a hump. That spots gotta be around here somewhere. Hey, theres a baseball field over there! Lets go! Wow. Maybe this is the light pole that I believe is still un-named and I call dibbs on. This must have been the clubhouse. Neat! Casey!? Aw, its locked. Oh, there's the watertower! Lets go! My plan was to climb the watertower. But before I could, I saw her. She was a breath of blue through green and I knew that it was recognition at first sight. I had found her, my google girl. My google girl. I was here for now and she was stuck in time forever, my google girl. My google girl. I wanted to call out to her because she stood so near me But the walls of time are thick, I knew she couldn't hear me. Suddenly she walked away but left her hatch back open. I knew she would return or at least that's what I was hopin. But stuck in time now, that was we. If I moved backwards, so did she. She was a blur like Jackie O When caught by lens (telephoto). She wasn't nude but she was fine. Google girl will you be mine? My google girl I want to run right up to her and not be so sublime. But first I had to find a way to break the bonds of time. To leave her frozen here for all eternity is cruel. I'll break on through and join her, for love, I am a fool. Okay guys! Looks like I'm getting sidetracked again. Gotta go. Hope you enjoyed your google road trip! I did. Oh yea, the Sadecki Spot.... here's the field today. I'm working on recreating the field as it must have looked back in the late 70s, with the two fields facing each other. Sorry about getting sidetracked again but you can't really see anything interesting from the street, which is all google gives you. And thats good, I guess, or else we'd have google photographers running through our back yards and shit. Whenever I use google map and go ground level I always end up looking at the google people, caught in digital amber forever (or however long before they re-shoot). And I always end up finding my google girl. She never really looks the same, but stuck in time, it's such a shame. My google girl. (Thats not a song parody. That's my new hit single. I'll eventually get to writing the music to it. But feel free to parodize My Google Girl all you want. I'm not too attached to her.)

k, I'm goin with Davis. Better yet, move em both and get Tulo and Cuddyer.

Okay Duda. If you want the job, earn it.

C.B. sucks.

I think Turner told him to open his fuckin eyes,lol. Ronnies right, go sit down Josh. Maybe we'll get back 2 back 2 back homers and forget all about it.

If he thought that was foul....who cares, run it out. It certainly started fair. Umps review and its a quick one and its a homer. You're still an idiot Satin.

SATIN!!!????OMG. And that was a homer! But Josh didn't even run to first.

It took awhile last time before I felt that the effects of that were behind him. Lots of bailing out for a long time and this season I have not seen much of that. It would suck if this set him back in that regard.

Turner in for Wright. At first David looked like he did when he got hit the last time. Slow and struggling to get up. But then it looked like he came around real quick when the trainer was checking him. I hope there are no ill effects. Nah, its not a hard call Ronnie. The kid was wild. Part of the game sometimes.

Very scary seeing David hit in the helmet again.

Wright looks okay, lil shaken up, and leaves the game. But thats fucked up. And now Hellwig hits Duda with a pitch!

Wright beaned in the head.

AWWW[bigpurple:2paeh5a4]fuck[/bigpurple:2paeh5a4]

Gees throwin meat balls.

Muffy you can't shuffle it until you have it. No way should that have been allowed to go thru. For shame Dan. That cost a run. You could have made sure that didn't get to the outfield, and you should have. That was the play there. You weren't gonna get two and fuck the force there. Had to stop the ball first in any case. And on another screwy play the Brewers pick up another. Nice try by den.

He tried, but he couldn't do it.
