Lolz. LJ just slammed his head into a wall.
Per FOX: last game with two position players used as pitchers by one team: back in 1990 by the Montreal Expos.
Mike Pelfrey is warming up for the Mets. This is going to screw up his good start to the season.
Oh shit, this game is televised here. Whhhhhat.
The Pagan scored.
Kyle Lohse catching fly balls in the outfield. Great range. :laugh:
Kyle Lohse plays better defense than Daniel Murphy
Mike Pelfrey in for the save!
Please don't let this end. Two baserunners. I can feel a blown save coming.
I feel a strikeout coming
D'oh. Pujols left on the on-deck circle as the game ends.
Even though I hate the Cardinals, and the Mets, I can't believe I missed this game.
Some fun extra-inning game facts:
- Both the Mets and the Cardinals have played 4 games of 20 innings or longer in their franchise's history. Oddly, this was the first time that the Mets won a 20+ inning game and the first time that the Cardinals lost one.
- The Mets played a 25-inning game against the St. Louis Cardinals on September 11, 1974, losing 4-3.
- The Mets also lost a 1-0 game in the 24th inning against the Astros on April 15, 1968 and an 8-6 game that went 23 innings against the Giants on May 31, 1964.
- That 23 inning game was the second game of a double-header, with Gaylord Perry tossing ten innings of relief for the victory. Galen Cisco took the loss for the Mets after pitching nine relief innings of his own. Crazy.
- Combined, those two double header games lasted 9 hours and 52 minutes, a major league record for longest double header.
