devo 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2006 Well, whatever bad karma the Mets accrued for their respective entrance themes seems to be in full effect now, as they're currently down 9-4. Lo Duca's responsible for quite a bit of this disastrous inning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest NYankees Report post Posted April 6, 2006 Personally, I'd say "Enter Sandman" is more fitting for a redneck Virginian than a Panamanian, but that's just me. It's a stupid thing to get worked up over. I would say it is more fitting for the greatest relief pitcher in Baseball, Post Season and World Series history than some hick who blows games all the time and has done nothing in the clutch.

NoCalMike 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2006 Can someone tell me why the Yankees/A's game isn't being aired tonight on the MLB Extra Innings package? (Oh and for those that don't know there is a free preview of it for I think the first 2 weeks of the season) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NoCalMike 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2006 MLB considers Sacramento "local" to the Bay Area so they blackout the A's and Giants. I thought they only blacked them out if they were otherwise airing them on a local affiliate....am I wrong? I mean I don't even see it listed as one of the games on my guide. It would be one thing if it was listed, and when I tried to turn it on it gave me the blackout msg, but it's not even there on the guide Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

naiwf 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2006 Nice to see that the Messiah's error on a sure double play ball has cost the Yankees 3 runs here. It would be worse if not for Matsui and A-Rod making nice defensive plays following his snafu. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
