Misery Loves Company: Two Guys Watch Baseball

Game 71 - Mets

Marlins 5, Mets 1
Record: 33-38

And so begins the descent from the apex: it starts slowly but picks up speed as it progresses down, and down, and down . . .

Steve Trachsel goes against Andy Pettite tonight at Shea. This appears to be one worth watching, at least for me.

And to follow up Mr. Russell's point in his Random Thoughts, even your favorite hitters get out 55%-65% of the time (moreso if your favorite hitter wears royal blue and blaze orange). This game makes for a lot of couch-punching. The plus side: if you can manage to get way too wrapped up in the angst of watching your team toil away all season with failures galore, you tend to forget about the significant stresses in your life.
