Without question, the best part about coming from behind to beat the Metros is watching their loser fans react to the inevitable, and last night was no exception.
In the fifth inning, when the Fightins’ were in the midst of coming back from their early 7-0 deficit, Ryan Howard jumped on an outside fastball delivered by the no-longer-intimidating Pedro Martinez. The astute CW57 cameraman must have been scoping out the angriest of the Metro fan prior to the blast, and immediately cut to a volatile gentleman who most likely dropped some major cash for a first row seat. Around the :22 second mark, you can clearly see Mr. Temper mouth some expletives before becoming so enraged, he just gets up out of his seat and walks out.
hahahaah:
On a side note, I must mention a text message I received from my former colleague and Mets scribe over at B&C, Brad Bortone. He asked me to write a short guest post for him yesterday, and between my work schedule and outright laziness, it completely slipped my mind. So, at 8:47 PM, I got the following text:
“Hey. It’s brad. Now that the mets are spanking them no need to guest post.”
At 9:42 PM (when the Phillies cut the lead to 7-6):
“Okay. I take it back.
“Too late,” I replied. Didn’t these Mets fans learn anything from last year?
I’ll have many lasting memories from last night’s game; So Taguchi’s pinch-hit, 2 run double to tie it, Pat Burrell & Jayson Werth’s sniping of Endy Chavez at the plate, Chase laying out to save 2 runs in the 7th, and Jimmy Rollins taking the collective heart of Queens and pulling it down the left field line for the lead…
But, without a doubt, the most enjoyable for me was watching the faces of the Mets fans as they witnessed yet another Fightins’ comeback.
I’m even considering buying one of those digital picture frames for my desk and putting this slideshow on it:
You think Ryan Howard wasn’t excited after Shane Victorino’s game-winning single?
Think again. The 6′4″, 260 lb. big fella shows off his hops immediately following the beautiful win vs. the hated Metros:
And thank you, Rockies, for demoralizing the Marlins the past 2 nights.
