Jeopardy time...

This team is notorious for having runners in scoring position today, and not being able to hit them home against a notoriously bad NL Central team.

Just so it gets max coverage:

God Bless America goes BEFORE the game. Not during the stretch.

Stupid Mets. Fucking Yankees.

God Bless America

is NOT the national Anthem. It’s just a song.

These teams don’t do TTMOTTBG during the stretch. They’ve chosen to do this instead.

It’s a Steinbrenner creation.

the Mets

are like the White Sox — the number 2 team in NY, no matter what. They try to mask it by copying what the Yanks do.

CC

He’s going to be at or close to 90 pitches after the 5th

by Craig in South Bend on Aug 24, 2008 2:32 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

According to Yost...

that means he’s got another 60-70 left in him.

by dedfishflote on Aug 24, 2008 2:34 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

I was thinking the same

Run him out there for 130 – 140 pitches.
