The New York Mets Rank First In The Majors At Videobombing
Jeremy Hefner's been one of the few bright spots for the New York Mets lately, so it figures his teammates would do everything possible to clown on him while he provided an interview to SNY before tonight's game in San Francisco. Laid-back and fun-loving? Sounds like a winning combination to me!...
This Giants Security Guard Keeps Getting In The Way
Poor guy. He's just down there in the left field corner doing his job. A job that involves standing around all night, staying alert, and trying to keep his antennae up in case some asshole throws something or interferes with play or behaves like a drunken lout. Now he's got to figure out what the he...
Police: Anna Benson Stormed Kris's House With Gun And Bulletproof Vest
The saga of Kris and Anna Benson, which last July we thought had come to an unhappy-but-not-especially-terrible resolution with the couple's divorce, appears to have indeed come to that especially terrible resolution, one involving guns and bulletproof vests and the police....

White Sox Blow Lead In Ninth; Hawk Harrelson Goes Silent
This isn't a new reaction from Hawk, but it's still fun. With a man on second and two outs in the ninth, the White Sox coughed up a one-run lead against the Mets Tuesday night, sending Hawk spiraling down to the bad place. ...
Super Tuesday: It's A Great Day To Be A Mets Fan
It's awfully hard for a baseball team to stand unquestionably, soul-crushingly outside of contention in mid-June. But the 2013 Mets, who have failed at most everything, have been up to that task....

We pick up the action in the fifth inning with "...David Wright, who's won two gold gloves—not a good throw, though!..." and it only got better....
Beer-Wielding Mets Fan Tumbles Over Seats

Mets Approached Cougar Site About Stuffing Ballot Box For David Wright
When the first vote totals for the MLB All-Star Game were released last week, David Wright was in second. A desperate Mets marketing department didn't want Wright to lose to Pablo Sandoval for the second year in a row, especially not with the game being held at Citi Field. So one employee decided t...
Mets And Marlins Play 20-Inning Baseball Game
We won't be calling this one a 20-inning thriller. The really amazing thing about this game, though, is that there are probably dozens of people who actually stayed at Citi Field for the entire game. Try wrapping your mind around that....
Crying 4-Year-Old Mets Fan Wants To Be A Yankees Fan

The Latest Mets Scandal Is So Stupid Even By Mets Scandal Standards
Jordany "Took a Spring Training Fastball Right To The Dick" Valdespin doesn't do a whole lot on the Mets. He doesn't walk, he can't play much defense, and he's hitting .235. He pinch-hits, with a start in center or at second every so often. He'll steal a base or hit a home run on a special day. But ...
The Mets Sign Rick Ankiel
This is not the end of one of the stranger careers in baseball history. Jon Heyman reports the Mets have signed Rick Ankiel to a major-league deal, and he'll immediately join the team in St. Louis....
White Sox Pitcher Hector Santiago Forgets His Turn To Bat
Hector Santiago pitched so well last night that the Mets' Matt Harvey didn't even get the win even though he took a perfect game into the seventh inning. But when he was due to hit with two outs in the sixth, Santiago was nowhere to be found. Stupid interleague play....
Here's A Dog Dressed As A Hot Dog, Eating A Hot Dog
Yesterday was the annual "Bark in the Park" day in Atlanta, the only time—other than when the Reds are in town—when ticketholders must show proof they've been vaccinated against Parvo and Bordetella....
Brian O'Nora Was Probably Puking Because He Swallowed His Chew
The Mets and Phillies experienced a brief delay in the first inning last night thanks to what is being variously described as Brian O'Nora's "flu like symptoms" or "illness." In all likelihood, however, the delay was probably due to Brian O'Nora vomiting up his chewing tabacco. ...
