Wild pitch!!

Ha Ha!

I'll go one better. How does a 50 year old man tag up from 3rd and score on a shallow fly ball ?

Ha Ha!!

David Wright!!


I thought it was a grand slam but I'll take the 2 run double anytime.

All-Wriiiiiiiiiiight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!!!

Moises Alou makes his bones!!

I am so glad I'm home today.

It all goes back to the Julio Franco at bat. No balls ( no pun intended) by the Phillie pitcher.

I'm gonna say this one time DC. Julio Franco is older than us. How can you pitch so afraid ? Philly fans, not exactly known for forgiveness, are gonna give that kid hell.

Ha Ha!!

I agree.

Maybe he had the 3 for 5 lifetime stat in the back of his mind? I don't know.

A 1 - 2 - 3 Billy Wagner inning? AMAZING!

Billy Wagner!!

Put it it the books, 5 and 2.

Delgado looks as though he's found his swing again.


Mazz just said exactly what I said earlier about the Julio Franco at bat.

Mazzilli: "if you give this team (the Mets) 4 or 5 outs an inning, they will BURY you with that lineup."

And he's right too.

You never give a team with a potent line-up and extra out in an inning because you will pay for it.

I'm going through Mets withdrawal tonight!

Anyway what is it with this day off after opening up a home series? What's the reason for it?

Maybe they just schedule extra days off to start the season in case of bad weather. It is strange.

That was always a pet peeve of mine. For whatever reason, the day after the home opener is an off day.

I didn't know Kelly Ripa was a Met fan. You know, she's Italian, too. If she put on a few pounds, she might just be the perfect woman.

She is? Every time I've watched the show she goes on about being a Yankees fan. Maybe she plays both sides of the fence.

Well, she was going on today about opening day and how her and Mark love Chavez and Reyes, etc...Plus she's doing radio spots for them on WFAN, so that my weigh into it.

You mean that she goes both ways?

Now she really may be the perfect woman.

C'mon Willie, get this kid outta there!!

There's not much to say about Perez's meltdown tonight.

Last night's game really proved how important good defense is. How many times was Pelfry in trouble after walking a batter or two with less than two outs? Several times it looked as though Washington was about to break the game wide open only to have the Met defense come up with a nice play in the field to turn the double play.

They can talk all they want about Franco's pinch hit winning the game for them ( which of course it did on the scoreboard), but to me the turning of those double plays is what really won it for the Mets.

It was real nice for the Mets to show up for today's game. They're playing like they think they just have to show up at the park to win the game.

Let's go Rangers

Beltran! I'm telling you. This guy is going to win the NL MVP this year.

I had to turn the game off. The Phillies just kill me. The Mets play to win, but the Phillies just go through the motions. Pat Burrell, I'm convinced, only shows up to collect a pay check.

They got rid of Francona because he was supposedly too soft; they got rid of Bowa because he hurt their feelings. The only constant has been this apologetic brand of baseball.

Sorry about polluting the Mets Board. I just had to blow off steam.

I feel a little better.

He's worth every penny. I loved him when he was KC, and went out and bought an authentic jersey as soon as they signed him.. Sometimes he frustrates me with K's with runners in scoring position. But I'm just nitpicking.
