      :-D

      Yes indeed!

      Go Clones!!!
      Go Gnats!!!

      Too bad none of the games look to be televised.

      1. stickguy

        Odd though. with no Mets game tonight, you would think that SNY would fire up the Brooklyn playoff game. They have broadcast other cyclones games, haven’t they?

      2. GravediggerHebner

        I haven’t tried this in a long time so not sure if it works but I think through the Gnats website you can link to their radio cast and I think their voice is Toby Hyde.

    Clone the Gnats!

    oh wait, that’s not what you meant…

    so if the cyclones choke does that mean wally wont get the mets job ? :P

    1. stickguy

      or, we find out if the reason Jerry is still here is because Wally was still otherwise occupied.

      Hmm, wonder if Hojo and Wally are buddies from back in the day? wouldn’t that be a kick, if wally got the job, then wanted Hojo to stay on?

    Oh…I was excited when I saw this post because I automatically thought the Cyclone game would be televised on SNY. But boo….it’s not.
    I too don’t understand why at least one of these games wouldn’t be televised.

    Go Wally!

    I wonder if Wally is telling himself his team, their season can’t end being eliminated in this round – especially as good a season as they had. Much like many of them on the bench during Game 6 were thinking…

    cyclones emulating the big club.

    had a lead, and the pen spit back a 4 spot in the 8th to put them down by 1.

    still time for a dramatic comeback.

    and the other team in the playoffs for the mets (sand gnats), losing big in their game 1.

    could be a quick postseason for the met minors.

    1. stickguy

      +1 for wally. they tied it up in the bottom of the ninth to head toward extra innings.

  6. GravediggerHebner

    Clones win! Clones win! Clones win!

    1. stickguy

      that’s our wally.

      1. GravediggerHebner

        Yeah he managed the hell of out of that wild pitch on which the winning run scored in the bottom of the 12th, but at least he did have the Clones steal more bases (4) than they made errors (3). ;-)

        1. stickguy

          it was the “controlled aggression” (or whatever he calls it) that upset the pitcher, leading to the WP. all part of the plan.

          Or, it could could just be that most SS Aball RPs aren’t likely very good?

          but, if they had lost, I would have blamed Jerry.

  7. stickguy

    brooklyn lives. won it in the 12th. winner take all game tomorrow (I think)

    1. metsfan4decades

      Nicely done, boys!

    I guess there are meaningful games in September.
