Geez, Ruiz, that was an incredibly stupid bunt.

 

[Retroram52]

Beautiful, Asche. Jumped on the first pitch and he gets Byrd home. Geez, Brown is pinch hitting for Buchanan.

 

[Retroram52]

That was just stupid by Brown who hits into the double play and kills any opportunity to score more. The game is tied.

 

[Retroram52]

Diekman is in relief for Buchanan who threw only 64 pitches. Pretty damn good.

 

[Retroram52]

Byrd is having one helluva game tonight. The 37-year old is playing like a 24-year old.

 

[Retroram52]

That's three balls in the dirt and then Diekman walks den Dekker.

 

[Retroram52]

Nice snag by Utely but not quick enough to get den Dekker out at first.

 

[Retroram52]

den Dekker beats Ruiz's throw. Ruiz's throw is slowing and it is noticeble. And now Diekman hits the runner. Here comes McClure. Diekman might be done.

 

[Retroram52]

Diekman is dying fast. Better get him out there before the Mets just kill us.

 

[Retroram52]

Diekman walks two, hits a batter, and now Sandberg is going to yank Diekman. The bases are juiced as deFratus comes in.

 

[Retroram52]

UNFREAKINBELIEVABLE!! Sizemore drops the fly ball because he didn't use two hands and two runs score. This is just crap!!

 

[Retroram52]

The Mets pull off a delayed double steal as Campbell steals home. Ruiz missed the pitch to second and Rollins misses the pitch home. The Mets lead 4-1. These old guys are making all the mistakes and the Mets get three unearned runs. I am watching this team just unravel completely and there is no reason for it other than a whole host of mental errors by a bunch of old guys!!!

 

[Retroram52]

Jimmy Rollins had the play at second and didn't even bother.

Pulling Buchanan was moronic. Instead of pinch hitting for him Ryno could have ordered a bunt. Getting pulled after 64 pitches is bound to get a reaction from Buchanan. IMO.

Revere is been ofer tonight.

Yep Northeast. It set into motion a whole host of errors starting with Diekman loading the bases and then Sizemore dropping a sure out.

 

[Retroram52]

Utely hits into left field and it drops. Let's get some runs back.

 

[Retroram52]

Howard is up and he is ofer tonight.

 

[Retroram52]

What a complete BS inning.

 

[Retroram52]

Now Holland is in. Let's see if we can eff-up another side.
