Update: yay, the bringer of black got tossed. Here’s a crowd shot via @mediagoon.

Blah, since they are going nowhere fast anyway I’d rather watch them lose in BLUE than win and make some ridiculous superstition about wearing black (note: I would not say that if they were in a pennant race or something).
This team is hard to watch, the least they can do is look good. And that’s one only thing they’ve done well this year (at home).
Yes, they’re back. Yes, they’re back. Well, they’re back. Yes, they’re back. Well, they’re baaaaaack. Baaaaack. Back in black. Well they’re back in black!
Michael, this was stuck in my head. I may have to see if I can get Media Goon to make a video.
Did anyone notice that PepsiMax commercial that SNY was running throughout the game? There was a shot of Rickey Henderson wearing a Mets uniform WITHOUT the silly/pointless drop shadow and no black! Hmmm…is that a sign of things to come or something? By the way, did I mention that the hybrids SUCK?!

Covered in this morning’s Uni Watch column, who also pointed out that Ricky never ever wore a Mets jersey without a black dropshadow during his time with the Mets. http://www.uniwatchblog.com/2011/04/21/the-hy-peskin-archives-vol-3/
good eyes, didn’t catch that!
A cool commercial though…Rollie Fingers and sweet Lou as Cubs was weird.
Yeah, let’s put the stink on the blue caps & sleeves. They’re the problem. [rolls eyes]
Mets win big, but Pagan gets hurt. Hmmmm…What was Bay wearing when he strained that oblique?
