Nice game from Livan today, finally a starter going over 6. Also glad to see Marlon Anderson get DFA'ed for him. He was a good clubhouse guy but he's been pretty much useless since 2007.

Hopefully Johan can send the Mets to Citi at 4-2. Really stoked for Monday.

...and a loss. Unreal. Baseball is a cruel game sometimes.

**ClockShot** · 04-12-2009, 05:56 PM

Yankees had that game today.

Pirates get the first triple play of the season.

Dodgers winnn

**Loose Cannon** · 04-12-2009, 10:09 PM

holy shit, Reed Johnson just made this amazing catch robbing Prince of a Grand Slam.

**DaveWadding** · 04-12-2009, 10:13 PM

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEED

**SammyG** · 04-12-2009, 10:42 PM

We will sweep you again 3-0 Wadding.

**DaveWadding** · 04-12-2009, 10:51 PM

again?

**SammyG** · 04-12-2009, 11:03 PM

Uh. Dodgers? Cubs? Last year playoffs? Or have you already forgotten about that?

**DaveWadding** · 04-13-2009, 05:50 AM

As a Cubs fan, it has become reflex to forget about losing unless something utterly catastrophic happens in the process (see: Bartman, Steve).

Also, you lost to the Phillies, so shut your fucking mouth.

kthxbye

**SammyG** · 04-13-2009, 06:33 AM

Uh. at least beat your bitch asses.

I expect it every year. And i'm ok with it. I've been a Cubs fan for 13 years. If they win, i'll shit myself drunk, but if they lose, i'll be ok with it, because i expect it .

That play Reed Johnson made to rob Feilder last night was soooo sick. I love the tip of the cap by Feilder too. Cubs vs Brewers is kinda turning into a little rivalry. It'll never been Cubs Cards, but its still good. Reed Johnson.. seriously. Fresh off the bench and he's robbin niggs.

**Evil Vito** · 04-13-2009, 11:49 AM

Citi Field

Going to my first game there on April 28. Can't wait.

Interested to see the pre-game introductions tonight...hopefully nobody gets booed this early but I can definitely see Oliver Perez and Luis Castillo getting it. Gary Sheffield might also hear some boos from the people that didn't want him signed. Darren O'Day has looked bad so far but I really hope the crowd spares him, he was close with Adenhart so I'd guess that was on his mind.

Hoping Pelf and the offense can step up.

You beat a team with 4 playoff appearances since 1990, and only once didnt get swept out of the 1st round. Good job.

Pretty much.

Harry Kalas died

No more awesome voiceovers

**McLegend** · 04-13-2009, 02:10 PM

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

**Evil Vito** · 04-13-2009, 03:06 PM

Yeah that sucks

I'll always associate him with those epic NFL Films packages.

RIP, great career

**screech** · 04-13-2009, 05:36 PM

Growing up in the Philly area, I grew up listening to Harry. Although I wasn't alive to hear Schmidt's 500th HR call, hearing him do it when he came to my school was truly special. I remember 1993, when he was in the clubhouse celebrating with the team. I remember 2002, when he was rightfully inducted into the Hall of Fame. I remember 2007, when they clinched the division. And I of course remember 2008, when the city finally got her trophy. I'm going to miss the voice, I'm going to miss "the call," and I'm going to miss his passion for the game. Phillies games won't be the same without him.

I had the opportunity to interview Harry Kalas for my school newspaper last year. He was a class act and he seemed to really enjoy talking to me. He had some great stories to tell, and some great advice to give. It was a wonderful experience and I'll never forget it.

Rest in Peace, Harry Kalas

**McLegend** · 04-13-2009, 06:04 PM

Could be Lidge's first blown save here

**McLegend** · 04-13-2009, 06:07 PM

Nevermind.

**Loose Cannon** · 04-13-2009, 06:39 PM

Sad day or week even for baseball.

Mark Fidrych dead @ 54.

**Evil Vito** · 04-13-2009, 07:15 PM

UGH

Jody Gerut gets the first hit AND home run in Citi Field history, as the leadoff batter.

I had a feeling a Pad would hit one out first, but my money was on Adrian Gonzalez.

**Loose Cannon** · 04-13-2009, 07:20 PM

LOL hillarious.

I saw the inside of the park. It's so weird for me to see a Met or Yankee Stadium without seeind the inside looking like a dump. Looks really nice. It's got a Cooperstown type feel to it.

**Evil Vito** · 04-13-2009, 07:23 PM

Yeah the inside looks amazing from the pics/videos I've seen. Going on April 28th, can't wait to see it for myself.

**ClockShot** · 04-13-2009, 07:23 PM

Sweet. Yankees train station opens May 23rd.

**OssMan** · 04-13-2009, 07:25 PM

Mets are wearing those ugly rectangular patches

**Loose Cannon** · 04-13-2009, 07:25 PM

Awesome. I can finally take the train from New Rochelle to the Stadium when I am down there.

**Dragon** · 04-13-2009, 08:10 PM

Ah, of course Upton had to come back against the Yanks.

So far he's stole two bases, got a bunt single and made a Willie Mays over the shoulder type catch in CF.

**ClockShot** · 04-13-2009, 08:21 PM

Holy shit.

But then again, it's Tampa Bay.

**Dragon** · 04-13-2009, 08:22 PM

And Wang comes through with a Pavano-esque 8 runs in 1+ inning.

**Evil Vito** · 04-13-2009, 08:52 PM
