Marrero will bat for Maine. So,...I can say it now- Maine has a really nice lil scoreless inning streak going.
-
Maine thru 6. He looked like two different pitchers that inning- Utley hit him hard and he walked Howard. But then he settled down and struck out Burrell and Rowand. Bradford was up in the bullpen.
-
A smash to deep right, gone off the bat. Now Im not sure if I want to be a Milledge Person or one of Valentin-o's Lovers.
-
VALENTIN!

HA! yup- After seeing a replay there I see Howard was hit pretty hard by Valentin crossing the bag......but still. Hey, who cares, another Philly error opens up the floodgates. Maine walks two with one out in the 5th- his pitches look like they are getting away from him. But the Mets get out of it with a force play and a deep flyout off of Rollins bat.

Announcers goig on and on about Mathieson thrwoing it away, it was a little high and wide, but it should have been caught by Howard in my opinion. He was standing with his foot on the bag and the ball went off his glove. I think Howard "heard footsteps" with Valentin closing in and didn't concentrate on the catch. Not a good throw, but if I'm scoring, I would give the error to Howard. Let's get some more runs while we have them on the ropes. I agree- maybe even two errors there (one on each), one for Val being safe and one for allowing him to get to second. Howard didnt exactly scramble after that ball.

Chavez is walked. Lastings lines a wicked line drive single up the middle, so hard only Wright can score. ...consider me a Milledge person. Maine strikes out and Reyes ----
-
WOW! Mathieson gets Valentin to hit it back to him, and he throws high to 1st and Howard cant bring it down--it hits off his glove. I think Ryan screwed up there, tho Mathieson will get the error. Mets plate another as Delgado comes in--Wright and Val move up to 2nd and 3rd.
-
And David does spank one! Down the third baseline for a double and LoDuke comes in to score.
-
CarlosD walks. Ugh---Wrights swingin thru stuff like hes not seeing the pitch. Then he gets a curve ball up and watches it for a strike. He shoulda spanked that curve for bein bad.
-
Its about time we started seeing Delgado park one......or two.
-
LoDuca with a lead off double over Delluccis head in right. Beltraan follows with a pop out to shallow right. Delgado..........
-
Hate to say this, but Mathieson looks particularly on his game. Another quick inning for him,1-2-3. Strikes out Reyes swinging to end the 3rd. After watching Maine pitch the 4th, I have to say the same thing. Not fantastic or overpowering stuff, but good pitches in great placement. Howard did hit one hard but the other two outs were pop ups. 0-0 thru 3 and a half.

Milledge has a fan club: The Milledge People, all dressed up like the Village People and dancing at the rail.

Valentin with the 1st hit for the Mets, a 2 out double ripped past Ryan Howard down the right field line. But Chavez dribbles a grounder to second and thats the end of the 2nd. (I was hoping to see Wright show his appreciation at being the new rich kid in town , but he dribbled out to the pitcher.)
-
Mets go 1-2-3 in the 1st. Its really a bit odd not seeing Abreu in the middle of that Phils lineup. He was there for soooooooooo long. Maine sets the Phils down nicely,1-2-3 in the 2nd, notching his 2nd K of the game.

Edgy DC wrote: There is no joy in DC. The mighty Edgy is blacked out. From ESPNs Sunday night game? That bites. Phils threaten with a one out double by Dellucci and an Utley single off of Reyes glove, but Maine Ks the big Ryan Howard and gets Burrell to pop out--and it was a nice play by Reyes down the line in short left to end the threat.

This will be Mathieson's first-ever appearance against the Mets. Maine has never faced the Phillies.

I thought he hurt his rib cage smackin the sidewall, but it looked like most of the impact went to his thigh, as he leaped a lil while hitting it. Well, as long as he's back for tomorrow......whatever.
