BRAVES vs METS...ESPN 8:05pm...IN-GAME THREAD

[Wilforth]

Yes, it's pouring now! Call the game!

I guess you're on Mets.

[Shortstop]

Why the delay? Rain?

Heavy rain.

[diamond]

So basically most bookies have it to be a winner if 4,5 innings played on hometeam leading, right?

[Shortstop]

I guess you're on Mets.

No, Braves Runline (-1.5)

[polskboy]

is this game official?

[ZetaPsi808]

hopefully they call the game so my mets moneyline bet wins

[Shortstop]

is this game official?

Yes, for Moneyline wagers it is. For Runlines and Totals it is not, the wagers would be cancelled.

[ZetaPsi808]

Yes, for Moneyline wagers it is. For Runlines and Totals it is not, the wagers would be canceled.

shortstop this rain delay could last an hour and then they finish the game. i have not heard anything about the umpires canceling the game

[polskboy]

hopefully they call the game so my mets moneyline bet wins

dont count on that its only 1 run game they will wait long time before calling the game

[ZetaPsi808]

i think this rain delay is good for the mets b/c it will knock hanson out of the game. he was dominating and could have thrown about 25 more pitches

ML goes by baseball rules.

If it's an official game according to MLB (which this one would be, of course), it counts for ML purposes.

Still pouring, they should call it!

I was answering his question as to whether this is an official game or not.

i understand shortstop. i will wish for the game to end now so your runline pushes and my moneyline cashes!

[13th Inning]

Radar looks ugly.

Gotcha, my bad. I misunderstood what you were talking about.

Yes, I hope it continues to pour!

[Brock Landers]

This game is official, Mets will be a 1-0 winner. Pelfrey has to be the luckiest SOB, on the ropes like 2 times only to get bailed out by Double plays...him and Livan Hernandez who is a bum but is pitching like cy young, it will not last.

[yisman]

still heavy outside my window.

Thunder, etc.

[TheBet]

Rain delay knocks out Pelfrey, who was on the verge of getting rocked.

[dodger33]

The Braves could not take advantage of pelfrey. Wait until this guy faces a team that can hit... Its going to be a laser light show!

[diamond]

Brock, you seem very stressed and angry lately. whats up?

[darkenergy]

5Dimes just reopen the live betting line.

[jgray]

Radar looks ugly.

It looks like a very long time before the rain lets up.

[diamond]

Pelfred had already left.

[13th Inning]

It looks like a very long time before the rain lets up.

The rain goes all the way to Pennsylvania...

[Lefttee]

This rain delay sucks. Braves gonna get swept by the Mets.

[Brock Landers]

Brock, you seem very stressed and angry lately. whats up?

with the exception of bean town jim and dr stale aggrivating me, i'm perfectly fine. thanks for your concern

[diamond]

dont worry. I warned you do not get carried away - remember how you hit rock bottom. Dr Stale I dont mind, bean town jim..well quite a character, just ignore him.

[as99]

What a load of crap if the rain doesn't clear up.

[yisman]

the rain appears to have stopped.

[Wilforth]

The guy may go on to surprise a lot of doubters.

[yisman]

check that, it's still coming down hard.

Apparently, I can't tell from my window. I went downstairs and I can hear it pounding on the awning.
