3/9 O's v. Mets

[backwardsk]

Nice to hear that Wigginton took a right hander deep.

[Who's On 1st]

I am real disappointed!

The MLBNETWORK says O's & Mets game Live............but is showing something entirely different. :angryfire::cussing:

Freel hit by the pitch on his left shoulder.

[baseballnelie]

2 pick off attempts followed by a pitch out and another inside fastball that almost hit Jones in the same spot as he hit Freel.

[baseballnelie]

Jones grounds out to 3rd to end the inning.

I was going to ask earlier if it was blacked out for anyone. It says on the schedule that it is subject to blackout...so I might not even have the broadcast anyways even if I remembered to tape it.

[baseballnelie]

On a 2-2 pitch the 59 mph pitch got very far off the plate like a rainbow pitch. Ryan Church leads off the inning now with a walk.

[baseballnelie]

1st pitch to the next batter is a fly out to right.

If it was blacked out wouldn't it be on a different local station then?

I hadn't thought about a blackout!!!

How hard is Uehara throwing?

I think SNY gun is messed up. He was throwing 85-87 mph with a fastball. 65 mph with his curve. Splitter was at 81 mph. In the first inning.

Right now his fastball is 78-79 MPH. That doesn't seem right.

I'm glad it's not blacked out on MLB.tv

:scratchchinhmm: ???

The Eephus pitch is thrown overhand like most pitches, but is characterized by an unusual high arcing trajectory and corresponding slow velocity, bearing more resemblance to a slow-pitch softball delivery than to a traditional baseball pitch. It is considered a trick pitch because, in comparison to normal baseball pitches (which run from 70 to 100 miles per hour), an Eephus pitch appears to move in slow motion (60 miles per hour or less).

That pitch is the stuff of legends, if Uehara is throwing it on purpose I think I love him.

Anderson rips a single to left, which the SS may have had if he was not running to cover 2nd on the steal I'm not sure how high it was. Runners on the corners now with 1 out.

Not necessarily, a local station has the rights to show it. MLB blackout rules suck. :angryfire:

[baseballnelie]

Mets get on the board with a slow roller to 3rd, now runners on 1st and 2nd with 1 out.
