OT:LET'S GO METS

- Start date
Carlos Beltran with Houston in '04. It got him a big contract with the Mets. Btw, why in the hell would you pitch to Murphy right now? Even if the bases are loaded I would walk him. I rather give up 1 run instead of 4. Every pitch is a beach ball to Murphy.
Madden seems intent on burning his bullpen tonight. I guess that's what you do down 2-0, but the odds that he won't need them tomorrow seem pretty low.
BTW, Wright is now batting .300 in the NLCS, with an RBI and 2 runs scored. Small sample size, of course.
Cespedes steals 3rd - 4th steal of 3rd by the Mets in this series, which is very odd. They must have seen something.
That runs allows for Cubs outfielders to take a chance knowing the Ivy will save them. Like I said, Wrigley for all of its history is a joke of ballpark in today's game.:angry:
I'm trying to think of the last time that an umpire waved a runner home on any ground rule double, even if the runner already was on 2nd at the time the ball landed. It's pretty annoying, but it's what they do.
Wow, I wonder if that could have been an inside the park homerun.
I also think a ball that rolls all the way to the wall before getting lost in the ivy should allow the runner on first to score, especially when there are two outs since the runner is going on contact and would have scored anyway.
The umpires should be given some latitude to make a proper judgment on that.

a ground rule double is ALWAYS 2 bases regardless...the only time judgement is involved is if it is fan interference
Murph is just in the middle of everything. Might as well let him pitch the ninth. He'd probably strike out the side
