Schools out because of a threat of possible snow. We have kids at work day again. This could be a long day

[sheadenizen]

SNY..first Spring Training game today. No snow allowed!

[sheadenizen]

Once again the Mets face another financial situation. Core Communities has missed yesterday's deadline for payment to the Mets for naming rights of Tradition Field. The Mets will rename the stadium.

[Chris in Ga]

I was looking forward to a baseball game...even if it was the Mets. Booooo!

[Chris in Ga]

The storm system giving us snow is causing severe weather in fla. We here are under a winter storm warning

[sheadenizen]

I just hung up frpom speaking with a friend in Boca. She said no rain there ( just cloudy) and forecast is for clearing this afternoon. But she's 1.5 hours south of PSL.

[Dep]

Sorry? you east coast pussy. stand by yer guns.....:p

[sheadenizen]

When I edit posts.....to correct spelling or whatevah..why does it tattle sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. I do the same process every time. I've edited other posts this morning and nothing showed up.
Not a major deal....just curious if anyone might know.

[John]

Do they delay st games? Or do they just say forget this lol

[sheadenizen]

I assume they have to make the decision early. Don't the Braves have to travel from Orlando?

[Dep]

Sorry? you east coast pussy. stand by yer guns.....:p

LOL. YOU HAVE ALL THE GUNS :p

Fine i redact the apology!

It depends on whether another post has occurred b4 you do the edit, I THINK.

[Tim]

I am home from work today, we are having our ducts cleaned....It might be the first time these things have been cleaned in 88 years. I am hoping for buried treasure, or at the very least an old playboy or a dust bunny in the shape of Nixon.

[Dep]

haha i dont know. i think they wouldnt wait long but since its the first SNY game, ya never know i guess

i dont know. i would assume so. i think we'll hear quick when it get canceled

[sheadenizen]

LeBron James told a Cleveland paper that he has filed paperwork to change his number from 23 to 6 next season.

[Dep]

HUH?

yea i dont understand that either

if he switches teams i'm not sure why he'd have to file this

[Tim]

LOL. YOU HAVE ALL THE GUNS :p

Fine i redact the apology!

ha!

[Tim]

yea i dont understand that either

if he switches teams i'm not sure why he'd have to file this

It is to honor MJ right?

[Dep]

.

[Dep]

It is to honor MJ right?

I would think so but honestly i only heard about him filing the paperwork, nothing else

[Dep]

yup timmy. ESPN's story


LeBron James could reportedly have a new number next season, but Cleveland Cavaliers fans hope the words remain the same.

James filed paperwork to switch from No. 23 to No. 6, the Cleveland Plain Dealer reported on Monday. He beat a Wednesday deadline to make the request.

The All-Star said in November that he was thinking of giving up 23 out of respect for his hero Michael Jordan, but at that time he was "50-50," according to the newspaper.

"I've done it," James told the Plain Dealer. "I already sent it in. I'm going to be No. 6."

Six is James' jersey number on the Olympic team, but the NBA does not have to grant his request. If James switches teams, he can choose any number he wishes. The change only applies if he stays with the Cavaliers.

James will be part of the vaunted 2010 free-agent class that includes Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. While Bulls fans would like to see him try to make No. 6 as legendary as No. 23 in Chicago, New York has also maneuvered to have enough cap space to sign James.

Cleveland can sign James to a longer, more lucrative deal, however.

[Dep]

ahhhh so its a deadline and he did this just in case he stays in cleveland. that makes more sense

[Dep]

Rocco Baldelli will return to the Rays with a special assistant role, working with minor leaguers and other young players, reports Marc Topkin of the St. Petersburg Times. Baldelli is "not ready to retire," but has a shoulder issue currently.

Baldelli, 28, signed a $500K deal with the Red Sox in January of '09 and hit .253/.311/.433 in 164 plate appearances. He dealt with foot, hamstring, and hip injuries, but also has a type of channelopathy, which has caused muscle fatigue..

[sheadenizen]

dep...did you see this?


The Nets inched another significant step toward Brooklyn yesterday, as a New York State Supreme Court judge ruled against every objection raised in a lawsuit by opponents of the proposed basketball arena, housing and commercial project known Atlantic Yards.

[Dep]

dep...did you see this?

[John]

I heard Erin Andrews was supposed to be on that show as well

I don't really care for that show lol

[sheadenizen]

Bought your tickets already, john? Good. You'll be better off.

[Dep]

THE BACHELOR!!!!!!!!!!!

[John]

Haha
I really do love curling lol. I signed up to curligzone forum and curltv lol

so he's really gonna bat Reyes 3rd? That's not optimal lol

[Dep]

jerry is not an optimal kind of guy

[sheadenizen]

Haha


so he's really gonna bat Reyes 3rd? That's not optimal lol
I agree it's not optimal, but I think with beltran out he has little choice. Who's the middle of your lineup? Wright, Bay and no one.

[John]

I watched mike talk to Omar and he said they envision Reyes to end up batting 3rd anyways once his career progresses

I'm like no lol

seriously lineups amount to a few runs difference unless your doing somethig completely wrong but the mets need to squeeze every run they can get lol

[sheadenizen]

Know what john? I'm tired of trying to figure out why this team does what it does. They won't make the playoffs with or without batting Reyes 3rd or 1st.

[Lunkwill Fook]

Good morning. Anything happen that sucks yet?

[John]

Haha yeah that's true

I watched YES yesterday and mike was interviewing everyone and they were all very happy and positive

That's good I guess, but I just don't see this team bein more than a .500 team. 80-84 area

[John]

Lmao the new lineup for today's game lol

oh well guess Ike Davis is worth watching

[Lunkwill Fook]

I'm still thinking 83-84 wins with a chance of wildcard contending if we actually get lucky with a couple players (Ollie for one).

[sheadenizen]

The pitching stinks....starting and bullpen. That's what will hold this team back...not where reyes is batting!

[Lunkwill Fook]

I think the bullpen will be okay. Not great but not the achilles heel. I think it's the starting pitching and defense that could hold us back, which kind of go hand in hand.

[John]

Not getting a 2 starter hurts big time

[sheadenizen]

I think the bullpen will be okay. Not great but not the achilles heel. I think it's the starting pitching and defense that could hold us back, which kind of go hand in hand.

I don't trust KRod as far as I can throw him. But then again...you have to have a lead to hold one. Isn't that how it works.... :)

[Dep]

Feds now want to talk to Tron too

[Lunkwill Fook]

Not getting a 2 starter hurts big time

Yeah, that's the big fail. With a #2 starter, the rest of the starters slot acceptably. Without one, we're relying on too many guys to play up to their level of talent which they really haven't been able to do for two seasons now.

[Dep]

New lineup bc of the rain: J. Feliciano, Tejada, Matthews, Jacobs, Hessman, Davis, Coste, Pridie, L Hernandez, Figueroa .

[Dep]

hahaha, i think hessman as been dubbed THE BEAR JEW

too funny

[sheadenizen]

Feds now want to talk to Tron too

He can go with ARod. They can share the cab.

[Lunkwill Fook]

I don't trust KRod as far as I can throw him. But then again...you have to have a lead to hold one. Isn't that how it works.... :)

I understand but, in the end, K-Rod was okay last year. He certainly wasn't the reason we lost all those games. With a better offense and better pitching, it wouldn't be as glaring. I think the offense will undoubtably be better this season. The question is whether the starting pitching can keep us in games and/or protect leads.

[C Low's Doppelganger]

C Low's an old fart. one year older and nothing to show for it.

naaaa, lunk's mom handles that, right Dep? ;)

[sheadenizen]

Lunk, I was hardly blaming KRod for the awful season last year. I just think he's not anywhere near as good as billed and will prove to be way overpaid!

[Tim]

naaaa, lunk's mom handles that, right Dep? ;)

well played.

[Dep]

thanks duders.
haha, Dep's a fish also.

indeed. PISCES above all other

[C Low's Doppelganger]

naw, Aries uber alles!

[Lunkwill Fook]

Lunk, I was hardly blaming KRod for the awful season last year. I just think he's not anywhere near as good as billed and will prove to be way overpaid!

I understand, Shea. At the same time, I don't think he's as bad as we think he is right now. My point is I think the bullpen, while it won't be a strength, won't hurt us this year. We could contend with this bullpen if we had the other pieces we needed.

[Dep]

DAS WEINERZ?

[Lunkwill Fook]

bwahahahahaha

go easy on the lunker today!

It's okay, Deppers. If there's one thing this past week has shown me, it's that I can take a fucking beating. :)

[C Low's Doppelganger]

Tim, I like the avatar. One of my favorite movies. It gets better each time you watch it.

[sheadenizen]

I understand, Shea. At the same time, I don't think he's as bad as we think he is right now. My point is I think the bullpen, while it won't be a strength, won't hurt us this year. We could contend with this bullpen if we had the other pieces we needed.

I can agree with that Lunk.
Are you doing okay? I promise I won't argue with you once today. I'll wait until tomorrow!

[C Low's Doppelganger]

Sorry Lunks. I have been away awhile, didn't realize you were having a bad week. :(

[Tim]

dont be jellllus

I could have you both if I desired..both of you!!....unfortunately for you, I don't like the dick...

I can agree with that Lunk.

It's okay, Shea. I could use the distraction. :)

[Lunkwill Fook]

Sorry Lunks. I have been away awhile, didn't realize you were having a bad week. :(

It's okay, C Low. Just having catastrophic relationship issues plus I may have to put my cat to sleep today.

[Dep]

Who the hell is hessman and prudie?

Jason Pirdie, waiver pickup from Twins. OF

Hessman is the BEAR JEW. some giant

[Dep]

I could have you both if I desired..both of you!!....unfortunately for you, I don't like the dick...

haha, but you do like the spiderman PJs!

awwwww yeah Battlefield: Bad Company 2 in me hands. NICE. loved the first one.

game is mad fun timmay. i actually DL'd the first one for like $5-10

[MyFavBaseballSquadron]

Lunk:

For tonight's game, Gaborik and DZ not playing. Aaron Voros on waivers. Gaborik was not skating in the morning skate.

[Lunkwill Fook]

Lunk:

Lame that Gaborik isn't playing today but played the last game for the Slovak team. DZ I expected as they called up a defenseman yesterday. Surprised about Voros. He's not great but he seems to be a good roleplaying type that accepts not playing for long stretches.

[Tim]

:)

awwwww yeah Battlefield: Bad Company 2 in me hands. NICE. loved the first one.

I'll check it out....I've got 4 dudes running around my house with shop vacs

[Athena]

Happy Birthday, CLow!! Hope you have a wonderful day!

Lame that Gaborik isn't playing today but played the last game for the Slovak team. DZ I expected as they called up a defenseman yesterday. Surprised about Voros. He's not great but he seems to be a good roleplaying type that accepts not playing for long stretches.

If I was the Rangers brass I wouldn't be too happy that Gaborik came back so quickly to play in the Olympics. Although I read reports that him sitting out the 3rd vs Canada was not due to thigh but somewhere else in the lower body (like that's better right?)

I'm reading also that Lisin on waivers as well. That's about $2MM in annualized cap space if they sent those 2 down.

The Souray rumor is not going away.

[Dep]

I'll check it out....I've got 4 dudes running around my house with shop vacs

cool. yea i dont have the 1st on disc, otherwise i'd hook it up
i'll let you know how this one is in a few days.

[Lunkwill Fook]

I heard it was Gaborik's groin which is bad because that's what has been giving him trouble all these years, groin and hip problems.

WTF with Lisin? The guy works hard and has offensive talent. We should be working on how to use him better.

[sheadenizen]

I'll check it out....I've got 4 dudes running around my house with shop vacs
Don't let any of those guys clean up any gunk or dust in the shape of the Virgin Mary. We can turn your house into a shrine and pay for Chloe's college education! Seriously. :)

[Lunkwill Fook]

@TSNBobMcKenzie

Today’s waivers: Brad Lukowich (Vcr), Ryan Oulahen (Det), Enver Lisin and Aaron Voros (NYR), Anders Eriksson (Phx), Chelios (Atl)...

[MyFavBaseballSquadron]

I heard it was Gaborik's groin which is bad because that's what has been giving him trouble all these years, groin and hip problems.

WTF with Lisin? The guy works hard and has offensive talent. We should be working on how to use him better.

Yeah, it better not be an aggravation of an old injury. I wonder if it came as a result of having to change his skating style because of his thigh injury.

Lisin is this year's Petr Prucha. Some talent, not a consistent top 6 guy but given the paucity of scoring talent that exists on the roster you'd figure he'd get a better shake of it right? I see him as a typical KHL defector after this year.

[Dep]

lunnnnnnnnnnnnch

[Lunkwill Fook]

Dagoon on the hfboards said, "Dustin Penner, Souray, and a pick for Dubi Sangs Lisin Rosie".

[MyFavBaseballSquadron]

Usually Sather is the one doing the fleecing in trades, not the one getting fleeced.

[Lunkwill Fook]

Yeah, that makes sense. Try to take pain of the thigh making him put more pressure on the groin muscles. bad bad bad bad.

Prucha is doing well in Phoenix. Not great, not the 30 goal star we thought he'd be. But he's shown to be extremely useful when used correctly. I feel the same about Lisin.

[sheadenizen]

Elmer Dessens? He's still with the Mets? Seriously? Really? Huh?

[sheadenizen]

From PSL...it's the Mets ST opener! Now!

[MyFavBaseballSquadron]

Like I said, lower body issue:

NYR just tweeted the following quote from gabby this morning:

Gaborik: “it’s a lower body issue…I don’t think that I can really come in and help the team here…it’s day to day”

[Ed in Westchester]

catching up...

Happy Birthday C-Low

hope things turn out ok for you Lunk.

Wow, the Braves came to play. Aside from Larry and Glaus, that’s their opening lineup.

Inning over....mets coming to bat!

[Ellis Dee]

WTF, Mets are so paranoid they took out the starters because it rained this morning.

[sheadenizen]

Jesus feliciano leads off with a single. tejada up....

[Lunkwill Fook]

I, for one, am glad we have managed to hold on to a commodity like Jesus Feliciano.

[sheadenizen]

This Tejada kid looks cute. I think VMF might be interested. It's hard to see him well though.

[Ellis Dee]

The are Mets still too cheap to have HD for ST.

I, for one, am glad we have managed to hold on to a commodity like Jesus Feliciano.

Tejada strikes out but Feliciano steals 2nd.

[Ed in Westchester]

The are Mets still too cheap to have HD for ST.

you want a better look at Tejada to see if he is really as cute as Shea says?

[Ed in Westchester]

Tejada strikes out but Feliciano steals 2nd.

oooh, a replacement for Jose!!!

[Ellis Dee]

you want a better look at Tejada to see if he is really as cute as Shea says?

LOL, yeah he looks blurry!

Oh, and thanks Ed. I hope it does too but I can't avoid the fact that it was all of my own doing (except for the cat of course). But thanks, seriously.

[Tim]

for a certain Geek (http://www.thathigh.com/)....guess witch one.

[sheadenizen]

Sorry, I've been doing some work so I stopped paying attention, but I think Melky is on 1st. Have no clue had he got there. Now someone else is on base as well....
sorry, but I've got to get this work done.

FIX THAT HAT SON!




(i keed, i keeeeeed)

[sheadenizen]

Ike at bat...K's! Another overhyped prospect! lol!

[sheadenizen]

damn you, shea!

uh oh. What did I do? I don't even know, but I apologize and swear I won't do it again.

[Ellis Dee]

Ike looks like other white guys on the team.

discuss

[John]

Haha it's all good

I think hanson is gonna k his fair share next season lol

[Lunkwill Fook]

Ike looks like other white guys on the team.

discuss

Not a shocker, all white guys look alike.

[Ellis Dee]

uh oh. What did I do? I don't even know, but I apologize and swear I won't do it again.

LOL you beat me to figgy's 3 k's.

[John]

Deasens?

What about mejia lol

[sheadenizen]

Deasens?

What about mejia lol

he pitched yesterday, john.

And Dessens won't be around too long. I can see that already. Boy that heyward is huge.
Braves lead 1-0.

[Ellis Dee]

Not a shocker, all white guys look alike.

haha, the booth was remarking how he looks like frenchy, then neise, blah blah

[John]

Oh no injury lol

[Future]

Dessens takes a line drive off the leg. One run scores, and Dessens leaves the game. Livingston into the game.

[sheadenizen]

Luckily, Dessens just got hurt. They have to change pitchers. Time out!

Bobby Livingston coming in...who the hell is he?

[sheadenizen]

Future...it's all yours.

[John]

The injuries are already starting

[Lunkwill Fook]

I believe Livingston is a former infielder turned pitcher.

[John]

I was gonna say that too

Bobby who?

Wth did these guys come from lol

[Ellis Dee]

Luckily, Dessens just got hurt. They have to change pitchers. Time out!

Bobby Livingston coming in...who the hell is he?

Doctor, I presume.

[Tim]

The city of St. Louis must have money to burn, they just gave our bar 2500.00 cause we went smoke free ....now they are paying for us to install wheelchair ramps to the front and back of the joint..no bid process, just do it and give em the bill. I think this is how the military started paying 1000 bucks for toilet seats..

[CatchDog]

Elmer got hit wight in the weg.

[Future]

Livingston Ks Yunel Escobar swinging on a nice 1-2 pitch.

[Future]

Groundball to short, 3 down.

1-0 Braves going to bottom of the third I think. (Btw Elmer is a pansy. If he threw home he could have had the guy at the plate.) JK.

[sheadenizen]

No one has money to burn these days. My guess is that the no smoking thing helps drive health care costs down so they can afford to do it, and they must have to comply with some federal mandate in terms of the wheelchair ramps.. But just says thanks and take it! lol!

The Ottawa Senators have acquired defenceman Andy Sutton from the New York Islanders for a second-round draft pick.

In 54 games this season, Sutton has recorded four goals and eight assists with 73 penalty minutes.

In 567 career games, the 34-year old has 34 goals and 101 assists.

Good move. Surprised they're getting that much of a return.

Elmer got hit wight in the weg.

luv the sig CatchDog

how's Fla treating ya?

[Ed in Westchester]

The city of St. Louis must have money to burn, they just gave our bar 2500.00 cause we went smoke free ....now they are paying for us to install wheelchair ramps to the front and back of the joint..no bid process, just do it and give em the bill. I think this is how the military started paying 1000 bucks for toilet seats..

I think you need to install a wheelchair accessible keg system as well.

Hey Ed & Shea;

I'm actually out in Tahoe skiing. Went to Squaw this morning and after a few runs got hit with some whiteout conditions. Now I'm sitting in a hot tub with a cold one watching baseball.... in Florida.

Tough life, Catchdog. My sister, Mom and a few others just got back from Breckenridge a few days ago and they said they had snow everyday!

[sheadenizen]

oy vey. what's that!?

[DL]

anything notable yet from the game today?

[Future]

End of 3, Tejada flies out to left.

[Dep]

oy vey. what's that!?

[Dep]

[sheadenizen]

anything notable yet from the game today?

Yea...Heyward is going to be a thorn in our side for years and years to come. he is big, good and fast....stole 2 bases already.

[DL]

are any of our guys already busts?

[MyFavBaseballSquadron]

oy vey. what's that!?

Still too much clothes for Christina.

[CatchDog]

Tough life, Catchdog. My sister, Mom and a few others just got back from Breckenridge a few days ago and they said they had snow everyday!

Breck is beautiful. Lots of snow here. It was warm yesterday but Heavenly was nice. I'm sore so I guess a half day today is good. How's everyone been? You all should not forget about Florida this season.

[DL]

who cares about heyward

you need a TEAM to win it all

[Dep]

Catchdogggggggggggggggggggggie!

We'll get down there sometime this year, Catch!. We thought about ST, but couldn't work out schedules.

I'll be down there twice in June, but not the Miami area :(

[sheadenizen]

yup. Too bad Atlanta has no pitching to go along with him. :)

[Future]

JFC that's the second time a Brave threw their bat.

[Future]

Where the heck did that miss. Should have been Strike 3.

See, I'm in midseason form.

Doesn't matter, Livingston Ks the guy anyways swinging. 1-0 after 3.5

He's got 3 Ks in 1 1/3.

[Future]

GMJr grounds out to first on basically the first pitch he sees in the AB. 1 down.

[Future]

Jacobs grounds out to second. Way out in front.

[Future]

1-0 Braves after 4.

Whoever just batted for the Mets K'd.

[DL]

lol @ our lineup for this game

[Future]

Soft line drive and Livingston snags it. Me likey.

[MyFavBaseballSquadron]

lol @ our lineup for this game

LOL @ our lineup for the season :(

[Future]

lol @ our lineup for this game

What, my "whoever batted for the Mets just K'd" didn't make you think highly of our lineup?

[Future]

Heyward walks on 5 pitches.

[Future]

Livingston Ks Sammons swinging. That's 4 Ks for him. Two outs, Yunel up.

[DL]

LOL @ our lineup for the season :(

yawn

[Lunkwill Fook]

I think this is a ploy. We're like "Look, our lineup sucks already, we have so many injuries" and then BAM Beltran is in the opening day lineup as well as a newly healed Delgado.

[Future]

Wild pitch by Livingston but Coste should have stopped it. Heyward advances to second.

[Future]

I think this is a plow. We're like "Look, our lineup sucks already, we have so many injuries" and then BAM Beltran is in the opening day lineup as well as a newly healed Delgado.

Why have a newly healed Delgado when we can go back in time and get 27 year old Delgado? Hey yo.

[Future]

Livingston gets the groundball to third, Hessman to first in plenty of time!

I think End of 4.5...Livingston was outstanding. 2 and 1/3 with 1 H 1 BB and 4 Ks.

[sheadenizen]

Of course the batters haven't a clue yet, but this Livingston guy looked pretty good. Of course, let's see how he does on March 22. Then we can talk about it.

[Lunkwill Fook]

Why have a newly healed Delgado when we can go back in time and get 27 year old Delgado? Hey yo.

And old Delgado is just fine as long he has enough roids to make Bonds look like a Boy Scout.

[sheadenizen]

Ike davis......2 bagger!

[Future]

Terrible terrible route by the Braves RFer. Double for Ike Davis!

[CatchDog]

We'll get down there sometime this year, Catch!. We thought about ST, but couldn't work out schedules.

Sounds good. Look forward to finally catching up with some of you.

[Future]

Wow. Epic Flub by Hicks. Coste hits a liner right at him and he drops it.

Davis doesn't make it to third because he took his eyes off the ball and ran back to second.

[sheadenizen]

Davis' hit was a double off the bat no matter what route the fielder chose.

[Future]

Pridie singles, Davis scores. 1-1.

[sheadenizen]

Mets tie it up at 1-1!

[DL]

go c level mutts

[Future]

If the throw was on target Davis is probably out, even then the catcher made a phenomenal play to catch it and try and tag Davis while in the air.

Looks like we'll have many close plays at third again this year. :)

Rod Barajas sounds really smart. I'm impressed.

[Future]

Trying to bunt the runners over and the batter walks. Bases loaded.

[Future]

Feliciano hits a big sac fly to center. CFer kept going back and back and eventually caught it short of the warning track.

2-1 Mets. 1 out, runners on first and third.

[sheadenizen]

2-1 Metsies! on Feliciano sacrifice to center.

[Future]

Tejada singles in a run with a soft liner to right.

3-1. Runners still on the corners.

[sheadenizen]

If the throw was on target Davis is probably out, even then the catcher made a phenomenal play to catch it and try and tag Davis while in the air.

Rod Barajas sounds really smart. I'm impressed.

He was on with Francesa yesterday. Very impressive. I posted that yesterday.

[Lunkwill Fook]

97 wins.

[Future]

Ah crap, double play. Ball ripped right at the SS. To 2nd, to first.

End of 5.

[Chris in Ga]

The ATL spin squad the past few days has been spinning the heck out of Jesse Chavez. He has an explosive fastball they say. Just not a throw in, like many called him after they got him for rafi soriano

[CatchDog]

Gary Ron & Keith were really showing the love for Mejia to start the broadcast. Hope Jerry & Omar let the kid develop for another season before they let Warthen destroy him.

Going to grab some lunch. Good chattin' with you all.

Aloha.

[Ed in Westchester]

Dep/Ed:



Good move. Surprised they're getting that much of a return.

thanks!

yeah, Snow seems to do a good job getting return for players.

now if he can only pick a good one with this pick.

[Future]

Parnell into the game to pitch the 6th.

[CatchDog]

And the best to you Lunk. Hang tough brother...

[Future]

Aloha.

I don't think Warthen will be around after this season. I want Mejia to stay as far from these guys simply to have them not have the arbitration clock start.

Parnell Ks the first guy swinging on high heat, second guy flies out to left field.

[MyFavBaseballSquadron]

And old Delgado is just fine as long he has enough roids to make Bonds look like a Boy Scout.

Those merit badges don't earn themselves these days.

[Future]

Ruben Tejada gets a ball deep in the hole and Ruben throws it into the third row. Yikes.

Runner advances to second.

[Future]

Wow. They're giving Infante a hit for that. Sketchy.

[Future]

Wow. Ike Davis really blows a foul pop up. Should have ended the inning.

[Future]

It landed like 30 feet behind him. Hahahaha.
