Voltron!
What a way to cap off his busy day. First, featured in The Onion. Last, winning the dang ballgame.
On to tomorrow and the damn Marlins. Go Big Pelf!
'Catsmeat!' he cried. 'I see it all. It was that chump, Catsmeat.'

FIRST!
Some rookie (Mitch Stetter) is coming in to pitch for the Brewers. 2 outs, runner on second, Nate McCLOUT up.

I almost wish I had the baseball package right now
I kinda want to watch the end of that game.

Tough for us to sit here and rely on the Bucs to help out

Alright
Off to watch “Summer of 4’2”." Daily Simpsons re-runs and Mets games seem to be all I watch.

PRESSURE
“a pressure-packed moment here at miller park”
swung through a breakingball, 3-2
foul ball, still 3-2
PRESSURE
“a former Met trying to help the Brewers”
by JohnPeterson on Sep 25, 2008 11:08 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
like a true Met
“a fastball right down Main Street…………….. … and Mike swings right through it.”

You’ve got:
Cameron Diaz
Candace Cameron
And if it really floats your boat:
Kirk Cameron
Cameron from Ferris Bueller
Cam’ron

Those poor Brewers fans
1 postseason appearance, and none as an NL team. And they’ll be denied again this year, I’m sad to report…

I'm a poor, nostalgic sap
i think Pedro is a really interesting, thoughtful, quirky person and I hope we get to see him pitch again as a Met.
