To all you father’s out there, happy birthday. (all Mets related accounts have to repeat this Kinerism today, it is in the contract).
SLACKISH REACTION: I actually was watching the game until the second and then Gelbs came on. SNY has this poor guy horribly miscast. They just make him interrupt the booth flow and I’m sorry but it never ever adds to either the enjoyment of the game or my understanding of it. So I turned the game off.
The t-shirt people improved their record to 3-6! It seems the local Di’cks blogger enjoyed them…
Got to be impressed: believe there were over a thousand of them, more or less taking over the entire right-field bleachers. You would have to be particularly hardcore to follow the Mets across country, given how their season has imploded – and voluntarily traveling to Phoenix in mid-June? Well, that’s hardcore. At one point late in the game, vociferous but apparently random booing broke out from the section: turns out they had spotted a guy in a Yankees shirt. Let’s face it, the perpetrator of that deserves it. Wearing a third-party team jersey to a game is a major faux pas in my opinion: if your team is not involved in the contest, your attire should be similarly neutral, regardless of your loyalties.
Was this the worst call of Gary Cohen’s career? (Friday)
Mick says the Mets are slowly coming along! And now he has them doing base running drills. In June. That’s gonna lose the clubhouse. If you have seen the videos, the players were all checked out.
