Top of the 2nd

Trax is leading off the inning, the only Met not to bat in the 1st. You can do it, Steve. I believe in the power of your bat.

The announcers are apologizing for insulting a blind guy who was using a strange contraption (called a Jordi - hello, Star Trek) to be able to see the game. Nice going, Brenaman, you insensitive prick. Trachsel grounds out to Redneck Kent.

Reyes quickly grounds to first and Not-Garciaparra bobbles the ball. Reyes beats Maddux to first. Maybe. It's close.

Lo Duca batting again. On a pitch out, they gun down Reyes stealing 2nd. Reyes almost beats the throw, but it was a solid throw and he's out. Damn. One out.

OUCH! Maddux plunks Lo Duca in the shoulder or tricep. So he's on first.

Beltran hits a routine grounder to Furcal who flips to Kent for the third out. Nothing doing this half-inning for the Mets.

Mets 3, Dodgers 0.
