Braves at Mets, 8/19-8/21

Another solid win. How great has Daniel Murphy been?

 

Back from what I certainly expect is my final game at the Big Shea, more than 44 years after my first one. I don't know what was more amazing - seeing a complete game victory for a Met pitcher, or seeing a game that only took 2:08. I don't know if you heard me, but I certainly thanked Larry quite a bit for his help in the first inning.

 

Is the surname Reyes the new Smith or Rodriguez or Johnson or Patel?

 

Delgado with 2 RBI, 2-1 Mets. Giants beat the Marlins 4-3.

 

what the hell just happened, 2 straight minutes of cackling on the SNY broadcast for no apparent reason. get seaver the hell out of the booth there's a reason he got fired.

 

Pedro looking very good through 5, but the Mets certainly need some more runs.

 

They have more Reyeses than runs.

 

I think the Mets should get that guy.

 

David Wright is a very good baseball player.

 

Delgado continues to rake.

 

I had thought Mike Hampton was to be out all season with an injury.

You learn something new everyday.

Well, it's a good thing he is back.

pedro still sucks

 

And just like that it's a tie game. Pedro really can't get though the lineup three times any more.

 

And now a pop fly single and the Braves lead.

 

Good thing I switched to the 49ers-Bears game.
J.T. O'Sullivan just threw an excellent deep out to Vernon Davis. O'Sullivan did play well in Week 1 when Jon Kitna was out for the middle portion of the game with a concussion. Alex Smith sucks and Shaun Hill should never be a regular starter.

 

O'Sullivan TD to Jason Hill

 

Alex Smith is now in, so back to baseball.

O'Sullivan's final #s for the night- 7 of 8, 128 yards, 1 TD
O'Sullivan backs up Tom Brady on one of my keeper league teams.

Marlins lost.
Phillies losing in 7th.

 

the nats are AWFUL

 

I have to wonder how much of that is Acta's fault - they're not only bad, they also play like they don't give a damn (that's certainly the way they looked in the game I saw them play against the Rockies in Coors Field a couple of weeks ago).
