Yohan Ramirez pitched like a guy wanting to be suspended. (For incompetence, not headhunting.)
Pete hit two nice singles to right. This would help if he wasn't hitting in front of McNeil (why is McNeil hitting clean-up????) and his .100 batting average.
Also, Mr. Pointy isn't exactly table-setting with that .077 OBA.
Megill was pulled after that 9-pitch 4th inning. Colin Rea was pulled after sailing through the Mets' 5th. Neither had thrown 90 pitches. Damn, I am really NOT missing Manfred-ball.
Highlights of the day were the "guess which cameraman went to spring training?" contest (Kenny on the #4 [center-field] cam had a nice tan) and Keith suggesting that when Doc and Darryl get their numbers retired, the signs should be rearranged so that his #17 is between Doc's #16 and Darryl's #18, as their lockers often were on the road.
He then paused and referred to those beloved 1980s heroes quietly as a "couple of headaches". Well, yeah, but you weren't always sweetness and light yourself, Keith…it's okay, we don't need our icons to be saints, even on Easter.
(Ronnie noted that things were quieter with his #12 flanked by Tim Teufel [#11] and Lee Mazzilli [#13], but I already reported how shocked Mookie was about Ronnie leading "man of God" Teufel astray that time in Houston.)
