Philadelphia Phillies at New York Mets, Aug 21, 2009 7:10 PM EDT
So raise your hand if you thought these four games at Citi Field in late August were going to be mostly free of drama. Liar.
The Phillies sit 14 1/2 games ahead of the Mets (16 games in the loss column), as New York's four biggest bats remain sidelined, as they have been for most of the season (minus David Wright).
It's Cole Hamels versus Mike Pelfrey, two young hurlers having similar and similarly disappointing seasons.
Discuss the game below.

According to SportsNite, Billy Wagner has been claimed off of waivers by the Red Sox. Don’t know if it’s true, but here’s hoping Burrell can still hit some game winners off of him down the stretch.

That would be sweet
sweet justice. I would friggin love Burrell hitting game winners off wags

Gee whiz the Yanks are already up 2-0. I swear when I go back up to school, I’m going to be sooo pestered by my roommates and generally 50% of the students there. As much as I also detest Boston fans sometimes, Yankees fans are by far the more annoying of the two.

Just a quick question. Which team do we want to lose 2 of 3, Marlins or Braves?
by SmilingJPhilsPhan on Aug 21, 2009 7:59 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
They split the first 2, the last gets suspended, and they schedule the game towards the end so we can choose who we want to lose later?

No, I'm not angry or bitter. Not at all.

For What? To Win.
How Much? Where do I sign?

I call it playing baseball. They just swept the diamondbacks. So they lost a game against the Mets. Jeezus some of you guys here overreact to the most ridiculous things.

yeah, reacting negatively to pretty miserable losses is definitely ridiculous.
“some of you guys here overreact to the most ridiculous things”
Let’s not pussyfoot here. You don’t like me and you thrive on the opportunity to call me out. I don’t see you responding obnoxiously to every person who comes on here and makes a negative or stupid remark…mainly just me.
I’m cool with it at this point because I know you, just like me, have your quirks. Namely I am a generally pessimistic, negative person and you are a snide asswipe. So let me do me, and you can do you.
And I am really starting to come around to jemagee’s view that you are indeed an attention whore. But again, nobody’s perfect.

Wow, that was a long game. Got home just in time to watch Howard strike out. Am I sensing bitter disappointment that we lost tonight?
