I heard Sheffield threatened to leave to the team too. He's the only Mets player with double digit home runs... with 10 haha.

Phillies score 26 runs. Mets score 16.

Redding will pitch instead of Livan. Might wanna up that to 7-2.

Hamels should be doing better. (7-7... what's going on? No run support?)
Happ is the man.
Lee is back in Cy Young form.
Pedro being Pedro. He really needs to get back in the "throwing old men down by their neck" business. That was the greatest moment in baseball history.


I think 6 runs is pretty accurate. Hamel lets up 2, Pedro lets up 4. if they let up more, it's because of relief.

Only problem with the Phils is Lidge and an injured bullpen

SHut up matt you dumb BITCH

ya? whats it to ya?

Word. I probably play this more than every other video game combined.

the single GREATEST baseball game of all time is ken griffey jr baseball for n64. i probably play at least 10 games a week with friends still. all the new games get way too complex. anyone played any of the 2k series? those suck balls

Triple Play Baseball '95 (or 6, or 7... I forget which), bitch.

triple play 99 was good i remember. also mvp 2005 for xbox

No, no, no. For the SNES. The orginal one. AWESOME.

The batting/pitching system for the 64 version of Ken Griffey Jr has yet to be topped. Fuck that pulling back on the joystick nonsense.

you mean...MVP w ROGER CLEMENS??

that game was awesome, although the fielding thing took some getting used to due to the way it was laid out backwards.

I'm stunned.

eddie gaedel

Hairston blows Pettitte's perfect game, E'ing on a routine groundball to third

>: |

...but then he gave up a hit (and a run) so it didn't matter

No it could have mattered. It could have rattled him. Either way I don't care.

He was pitching a PERFECT GAME, his nerves were definitely as frayed as they can possibly be already

well after hairston blew the perfect game he had to regroup to preserve the no hitter. actually he probably didn't know if it was scored E5 by the time he gave up the hit so he may have been out of focus because of hairstons fuck up.

how can you be a mets fan aswell as a yankees fan

I'm not. I'm just stating what the situation was. I'm a baseball fan more then anything.

how about penny getting traded to the giants? will the dodgers choke again?

giants could be a huge sleeper as they are heating up and we all know it takes good starting pitching to win those 5/7 game playoff series.

Penny wasn't traded

whatever, released, cleared waivers, signed w giants

Jim Thome to Dodgers is huge.

lol @ David Wright's new helmet.

lol at the spaceball comparison

*bonus points*

...NO FUCKING WAY

is april too early for a roger dorn night?

Every day should be a roger dorn night.

Jeter's third hit tonight actually made me tear up. God I love this game.

The Rays gave him a standing ovation, and the crowd went nuts for about 5 straight minutes. It was fucking beautiful.

fag

Was at the game, sitting behind first plate when Jeter broke the record Friday. I've never been in such an intense, fierce, amazing crowd before. We cheered for 3 minutes, screaming at the top of our lungs, even while the next batter was fouling balls off.

One of the best memories I've ever had. Oh man.

what an uninteresting record
I can't believe no Yankee has ever gotten 3000 hits

* shits all over your parade *

A real baseball fan doesn't like the Yankees.

oh no i am so upset @ u

YAAAAAAAAAAAAA




I was at the game last night. One of the best ones I've ever been too.

I'll probably post some playoff predictions, but I'm not sure. We all saw what happened when I tried to predict what would happen in the Mets/Phils series haha.

Assuming it will be:

Dodgers vs. Cardinals
Phillies vs. Rockies

Yankees vs. Tigers
Red Sox vs. Angels

What are your predictions?

I'll say St. Louis ends up with the best record and plays Colorado just to be contrary but yeah...there's really not much to predict at this point

So this Chris Carpenter guy is pretty good, amirite?

Yanks and the Phils are pretty much locks. I think the Cardinals will win, and the Sox/Angels are a toss up.

Sox have always handled the Angels in the playoffs, but I dunno about this year. Boston has sucked this past week, and the Angels are motivated in trying to honor that pitcher that died. Doesn't look good.

"Hey were the Mets and were gonna be sit around and let Jose Reyes keep renjuring himself. but now he needs surgery maybe and he might not be ready for spring training. whats a farm system?"

Who needs a farm system when you just buy everyone?

I hope they gut the shit out of the front office and replace everyone on the coaching staff but Howard Johnson.

If Mets do worse next season, I'm never paying attention to baseball again.

or you could just not root for the most unlikable team in baseball

I don't root for the yankees

OH SHIT!

the Mets just do the same thing as the Yankees but still manage to suck

Yeah. I'm impressed the Yankees managed to get the best record in baseball with all those injuries they had to 80% of their main roster.

I liked the Mets in 2000 where the only "bought" person was Piazza (I think). Then they decided to dissect the team that got them to the world series and buy there way to the top. As you've seen over the last 9 years, it's worked out great for them.


From the Mets website, this is what's wrong with them:
• More games than they had in any season since 2003 (what does this mean?)
• A player to an ankle injury suffered on the dugout steps
• A run when a player didn't touch third base
• Twice on walk-off grand slams
• Three straight games to the Nationals
• Fly balls in the twilight
• Five of six games against the Yankees
• The middle of their batting order
• Fly balls in the lights
• A game when a former Gold Glove winner dropped a 27th-out popup
• Runs and baserunners when players didn't slide
• 41 times in their last 62 games (PLEASE update to reflect the final 3 games)
• Fly balls in the sun
• Most of their starting rotation to injury
• A game when they hit into a ninth-inning triple play
• Three straight to the Pirates

Good times.

They didn't get rid of Warthen or Shines. Fuck. And I think Manuel and Minaya are sticking around. This blows.

and apparently Mets GM wants to get Jays (now former) GM for some job... CUZ HE DID SUCH A GOOD JOB IN TORONTO AND OAKLAND!!

This just in: Steven Strausghburg makes his first professional start for the Nationals in Florida instructional league. 1,2,3 inning. struck out two. Will play 2 innings or 40 pitches. whatever comes first. prolly two innings.

anyone is better then Omar Minaya

THIS JUST IN: i used to play against strausburg, hes a little BITCH

looks like he could BEAT YOUR ASS

nah in high school he was chubby, threw 89-90 mph. when we were 14-15 he still used to CRY after he got knocked out of a game early. everyone was shocked when he actually started lifting weights and pumping 100mph. he's actually a pretty nice guy, really humble and stuff.

itll be interesting to see if he reverts to his old hissy fits once he runs into some trouble facing major league pitching, which is something every pitcher goes through. its pretty easy to sit out there calm and collected when your pumping 100 mph against mountain west opponents.

if you look at his stats per game, against ranked or good opponents he would do allright (~7ip, ~3ER) good numbers but his overall stats are so misleading because he would just destroy weaker opponents which basically make up most of the san diego state schedule.

well hes got a couple years before he's gonna pitch against the "tough as nails NL East" so we'll see. He was No. 1 overall for a reason ya know man.

yeah i know, he is a prodigy. i just think everyone thinks of him as the 2nd coming of jesus christ for throwing a 100mph fastball, when major league talent can time that. most of his K's were on pitches out of the zone, he's going to need to learn how to pitch effectively while staying in the strike zone.

he's also gonna learn to spend his money on whores and booze. like a real Major League Ball player

15 million wooooooooooooo

you guys are douches. no playoff predictions. fuck you. and you.



i like this though:

Corey Sullivan!

playoff predictions:

Angels over Sox

Dodgers over Cards

Rockies over Phills

Yanks over Twins


ALCS: Yanks in 6

NLCS: Dodgers in 7


W.S.: Yanks in 7

I bet the rights to my Bulletin Board name that you are fucking wrong.

oh, I'm Huston Street. I have a gay name. I blow saves like I blow guys. often.

these championship series bettttter be a lot more tight

Baseball is the worst sport in the world if the Yankees win WS.

What a fuckin game.

BRING ON LA MUFFUCKAs

phillies got the pitching imma have to go with them

I'm slowly coming to the conclusion that this may be the greatest Phillies team the city has ever had.

Take off fatty Joe Blanton and you might be right.

Matt Stairs chokes migrant workers in his garden.

Matt Stairs is Canadian!

hahahha

The end.

ugh, what a terrible year for baseball.

THHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHE YANKEES.

Because 26 wasn't enough!

Finally I can get Fringe back!

When the Yankees win the World Series, I get the same feeling I got when I saw the ending of Signs

hope and assurance that the world was safe again?

This season for the Yankees was redemption and vindication all around for the last 9 years

they swept the Red Sox to win their 100th game and the AL East
they beat Pavano
they beat the Angels
they beat Pedro
Mo pitches brilliantly to close out the series
Pettitte won EVERY clinching game, the East, ALDS, ALCS and WS

redemption

Check him for steroids.

haha well honestly I see an upside in the Yankees winning. it's hard to keep bitching about them being the evil empire who buys their way to pennants without them having won for a decade. gotta have the occasional Yankee win to keep the hate alive, knowwhumsayin?

"in six games." buahahahaha.

god i fucking hate you

look all I'm saying is that I predict the Phillies win in 5.

this season, as a whole, was really awesome

Remember when the Blue Jays were in first place? And Dodgers ran away with the division? Or when the Red Sox were 8-0 against the Yanks?

The Mets fail, the Phillies dominance, Rays magic doesn't repeat, A PERFECT GAME, the PERFECT GAME SAVING CATCH dear god that was glorious. Pujols' monster season, A-Rod hitting a 3 run home run on the first pitch he sees, Jeter's awesome defense and hitting returns, Mauer's numbers, Greinke's emergence.

great season.

ahaha who the hell is this guy? this is hilarious, the Kate Hudson line and controlling the weather line killed me

Bill Burr, one of the funniest men on the planet.

that wasn't that funny :(

Eh, not a ton of him on youtube. But his specials have all been great, I promise.
