I like and respect Bartolo, so I will pay a mini pregame tribute to him: [fimg=400:2infz3cn]https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/HFzUCSThb-8qITNuh7Ect83_oq65hHeWNLRascY_YaFO77upD-Qj_KWcrV_3-6mOeETWki4TDNWuIdTHdEo1F2F0UugQJv4AvG-HYhSIgavujNPG9FmDLzxWMOEKDxnaqRSxnxAKE6zZfxTeIsglp8egCQdns4ks5djwHT-qWkr9hL0kOYpt2PuyPKPUMjazR_Rkrapf8N0eeTxy-DiJl_B-x8TIzwayQ60ao29mKyf_JZJtCLpryqd1itt_A4ZWx8G9TxpVS34Amvw35PsKCiLMELSpTyD038Kd7u_u2R6peH7vbC2aPXZubKiGeiA6mUWcJSzpfZwkOoI1XyI7aKM3ZyQGa62VH9bIUn41qjgjSwwR9hJiPzGRa37fpXB_q9xlHVTRaG7keAdU2Nr7F9DlhMeWWz98LRpX_xZs96oFqx2XoWLR-JKxznHbcILJrCA6zTpp_9DT-Hq1qjq9VjCin-p199bdZAWJAjpg7FAu6IGillfRRbAF2bQlIHHX55ASs7Z11PFpepFb9rxsj5hAkxMqoCl_WUEaznXwyvw1AVmtLYvOwQ09w2fr42j9Sl33jLaed7j1xWTYPuoFqp2Oq3RbeGESZCV5aBUqprEgDy_DUmg4ng=w640-h452-no[/fimg:2infz3cn]

I'm still not a fan of replay/review but I have to say it makes the experience richer in a sense. Because I went thru both emotions, the bummed out one when Flores was called out, and then the YAY!/happiness when the call was reversed. I know it goes both ways but we seem to be more successful then most at getting a call reversed. Percentage wise. Bob Murphy OD tribute:

What!? Me Worry?

Maybe he had two blisters, but the one on the thumb wasn't the problem. Does that make sense? I'm thinking that the thumb is the launching point---some discomfort there doesn't matter--but the finger is where he applies the torque. I think the thumb would be worse. Thumb's 100% involved in every pitch. On both thumb & middle finger? Lord no, don't let that be the case. Maybe its a video defect, even though it stays there throughout the clip.

Well, I'm no longer nervous.

Then what was that on his thumb Gar?

1-0 Mets!!!!!!!!!!!!! [fimg=700:1ptp8dju]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C8gwlb9XsAEQ1Sf.jpg:large[/fimg:1ptp8dju]

He was safe!

Harper homered in the Nats opener. 5th time he's done that. Amazin'.

Good inning from Hansel. 0-0 Mets, mid 7.

Whew. Nasty blister on Noah's thumb, I think he's done for today.

Oh, what a nice play by Cabrera. He's having quite a game.

This Teheran guy has been a thorn in our side. Damn, he's on as well. K's the side This is gonna be a great game.

Holy crap. Who had Asdrubal for 1st SB? No one I'm sure.
