Notes from Mets @ Giants 5/15 aka The Search for Brian Wilson's command.

On to game 2.

Star-divide

Honestly going into this game, I was just hoping we didn't get shut out. 

During the National Anthem, some guy was screaming, "FUCK THE METS".  Yes, DURING the National Anthem.

I was talking to my friend about why Juan Uribe.  Apparently this guy gets his own chant.  I wasn't sure why.  So this guy in front of me turns around and goes, "It's pronounced "Oooo-Reh Bay" and his uncle was a Giant."  To which I replied, "Oh, I don't care".  Because I didn't, and I still don't.  This guy also had binoculars to look at EVERYTHING.  He even looked through them at the television screens that were literally five feet above him.  And, his uncle wasn't even a Giant, it was his second cousin.  Big deal.

We were amoung Mets fans once again.  It's funny, whenever you find them and they sit next to you there's a big sigh of relief.  It's almost like you've found your friend at the first day of school.

The game was going as well as I thought it would be.  Tim Lincecum looked the "the freaK" we all know.  Livan looked like....well, a big fatty throwing an Eephus pitch every now and then.

I'm not sure why Omir was starting.  I honestly don't know.  I hope Reyes pinch hitting means that we will see him in the line up tomorrow.  Although, coRRa hasn't been that bad.

I love that we're running more.  I had honestly lost hope, they they took Lincecum and I was eternally happy for that.  The Giants bullpen looks about as bad as ours did at points last year.  Brian Wilson is complete garbage.  Don't take my word for it, just take at least 85% of Giants fans.  Somehow some of them were still cheering him after they took him out.

Not as many people were mean to me.  I think one guy said something, but I couldn't really hear over the sound of his team's bullpen sucking it up.

Small "Let's Go Mets" chant started at one point, but was quickly swallowed whole by Giants fans.

They boo'd Livan every chance they got.

Sean Green looked.....surprisingly alright.

That's all I can think of at the moment.  Club Level seats for Johan tomorrow.  Exciting.
