Flo Rida Marlins Will Start Game 15 Minutes Later So Mets Fans Miss Less

The game-time for the Saturday game has been moved from 6:10 to 6:25pm following a request from the Mets to the Marlins.

So we’ll miss some of the game, buy 15 minutes less, until the Fox window expires at 7pm.

I encourage all Mets to step out of the box as much as possible in the first, and Livan Hernandez should go to the resin bag (or is it rosin, i see both) as often as possible.

Play slooooowwww Mets.   Where are Sid Fernandez and John Pacella when we need them?

My review…I compared it to Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.

Sure will be interesting once more than 90,000 people have seen this thing.   Gonna be a long 75 years….

WFAN Announcers Can’t See The Game? (Mushnick)

Mushnick, great as always but tied down to archaic newspaper publishing schedules, today rips the Flo-Rida Marlins (that the blogoverse covered days ago)…we love you Phil, you should blog….we’d be thrilled to have you over here 😉

..anyway, Phil mentioned this nugget today.

Citi Field’s radio booth is flush to a front row, upstairs. Thus, patrons walking by impede the view of play-by-players Howie Rose and Wayne Hagin. A security guard posted to keep fans from hanging in front of the booth during last week’s exhibitions only served to also impede the broadcasters’ view.

Wow.  Who the heck designed these new places?  

I can’t wait until the newspapers discover that Monday night’s Citi opener is a night game.   I tried…
