Just because there are no points on the line, we office monkeys need a place to complain about GIDPs, LOBs, FYFKs, and whether or not we'll see Chris Resop or not.
New York Mets vs. Atlanta Braves, at Turner Field, and I'm writing nonsense right now to hopefully meet the character count so that I can actually post this on the first try when I hit "publish" ...
And I failed. So the pitchers will be John Maine from Fredericksburg, Virginia, versus the Three-Hundred game winning, future Hall of Fame left-handed pitcher, Tom Glavine, from somewhere up in Connecticut.

The Weather
Windy, overcast, somewhere in the 70s, topping out high 70s to low 80s. Heard that there could be scattered T-storms today, and looking outside, it could be.
No wonder nobody likes you, Tuttle... everything's a (Pujols) damn debate.
WTF
Just blinked, and the GameCast showed a 1 tick for the Mets.

Optimism
First-inning runs can be overcome.

Yes
But the homers do come, sparsely as they do. I went to a Braves/Mets game in 2006, and Lo Duca homered, and the Mets won 1-0.
Lo Duca hit 5 homers on the entire year.

And yes.
In case you were wondering, Glavine’s worst inning is the first. 369 runs vs 275 in the next closest, the 4th.
Come on Tommy.
Nibbling isn’t working apparently.
According to my ESPN GameCast
Glavine isn’t just pitching low and away, but low and into the dugout.

I don't like this one bit.
I have a feeling this is not going well.
Hahah
I love ESPN GameCast. “Line Out” is depicted by a mile-high pop out.

He turned into powder
and the wind blew him away. That’s what you get for playing such an old man.
I wonder if you can still smell the urine on his powder.

Ha
I was going to refrain from the urine jokes.

My friends and I...
...refer to him as “Pisshands.”

Very cool.
MLB Gameday uploads instant video of important plays. They’ve already got Castillo’s HR on there.
2Bs for 2B Cheeseburgers!

So much for
Getting the sure out…

Another thing I love about ESPN GameCast
When a pivotal hit occurs, there is this huge delay between when it says “incoming pitch has been hit” and the result, which usually occurs after the run is tallied on.

Great AB
For Heap. I love it when he does this.

Now Brian Schneider
I’d hate for Tommy to give one up to him.

MLB Gameday
is ahead of the radio on my computer…so I sort of know what Skip is about to say. Unless Gameday is screwed up, which it sometime is.
That wasn't my favorite time.
to send a runner. Who thinks Blanco just felt like going?
Wow
Those were some quick innings.

Yo Beard when you get back
New thread.
