Ok here is how this is going to work
I will simulate the Rockies and the Mets game. I can give us play-by-play updates, and we’ll do a little Choose Your Own Adventure in here, and backseat manage for Jim Tracy.
Sound like a good time?
Game will start once I have the Mets’ roster finished up.

OK, now after this, if there's something special you want me to do, go ahead and say it
Otherwise I have the batter swing away.

So what's the story on trying to run on Santana (and the catcher)?
Is he good at holding runners? How’s the catcher at throwing runners out?
I feel like I should know this if I’m going to try to play manager, here.
Santana holds runners well
Omir Santos is about average at throwing out runners, 27.4% runners thrown out

Now you see, Iannetta has to be patient on this.
Santana clearly didn’t eat his hot dogs today.
A hot dog (frankfurter, frank, wiener, weenie) is a moist sausage of soft, even texture and flavor, often made from mechanically recovered meat or meat slurry. Most types are fully cooked, cured or smoked. It is often placed hot in a special purpose soft, sliced hot dog bun. It may be garnished with mustard, ketchup, onion, mayonnaise, relish, cheese or chili. The flavor can be similar to a range of meat products from bland bologna to spicy German bockwurst varieties. Kosher hot dogs may be made from beef, chicken or turkey. Vegetarian hot dogs made from meat analogue are available.
7-Eleven is North America’s number-one retailer of fresh-grilled hot dogs, selling approximately 100 million each year.1920 Other chains in the U.S. that offer hot dogs include Sonic Drive-In and Dog n Suds, who call it a coney; Hardee’s (but not their counterpart Carl’s Jr. on the west coast of the United States, which is ironic due to founder Carl Karcher having started the Carl’s Jr. empire with a hot dog stand); Dairy Queen; Wienerschnitzel (originally Der Wienerschnitzel), whose menu focuses on hot dogs; Woody’s Chicago Style, based in Denver and colocated in Lowe’s stores across the Western US; and A&W, famous for their root beer and chili dogs. Nathan’s Famous is a well known hot dog chain, which sponsors the annual Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest. The original Nathan’s stand is located in Coney Island, New York. Hot dogs are also commonly served at Sam’s Club and Costco stores.
Casual dining restaurants often have hot dogs on their children’s menu, but not on the regular menu. Hot dog stands and trucks sell hot dogs and accompaniments, as well as similar products, at street and highway locations. At convenience stores such as 7-Eleven, hot dogs are usually kept heated on rotating grills; a selection of flavors and sizes is sometimes offered.
Hot dogs sold by vendors who wander through the stands are a tradition at baseball parks. Several ballparks have signature hot dogs, such as Fenway Franks at Fenway Park in Boston, Massachusetts and Dodger Dogs at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, California. The Fenway signature is that the hot dog is boiled and grilled Fenway-style, and then served on a New England-style bun, covered with mustard and relish. Often during Red Sox games, vendors traverse the stadium selling the hot dogs plain, giving customers the choice of adding the condiments.[citation needed]
Hot dogs were brought to the Philippines by the Americans during the war and have became popular.
Hot dogs are used in many competitions, including eating competitions and attempts to create world record sized hot dogs. In 2007, Joey Chestnut set a new record when he ate 66 hotdogs in 12 minutes at Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest at Coney Island, breaking the previous record that he set on June 2, 2007 when he ate 59½ hotdogs in 12 minutes at a Nathan’s qualifier event in Tempe, AZ. In Arizona, Chestnut had broken the record at the time of 53¾ by Takeru Kobayashi. 21
The World’s Longest Hot Dog created was 60m (196.85 ft), and rested within a 60.3 m bun. The hot dog was prepared by Shizuoka Meat Producers for the All-Japan Bread Association, which baked the bun and coordinated the event, including official measurement for the world record. The hot dog and bun were the center of a media event in celebration of the Association’s 50th anniversary on August 4, 2006, at the Akasaka Prince Hotel, Tokyo, Japan.

There was this time when I was with the Yankees
we sent Mattingly to get hot dogs from the stand that was outside the players entrance, but he didn’t have any money…cause we don’t have money in our uniforms…..so he brought back a pack of Mayo………
Start Seth Smith! Free Eric Young Jr.!
LF Cory Sullivan
1-1 count, and Sullivan squares up
ball to the left side of the mound, tough chance for Hammel
throw to 1B is JUST in time, Sullivan not thrilled

SS Alex Cora
(Just FYI, for some reason the game didn’t like me calling him Alex Cora so they made him into a slow Juan Pierre type named Ernest Mack. He’s probably gonna suck just as much as Cora)
2-0 count, Cora swings, bounces one to Helton.
Helton will take this himself and that will retire the side
run scores on a wild pitch, 1-1 game heading into the 3rd.

Well anyway Darrel Porter with the Royals
was in for a big game late one year, and it was a cold night. He sat his glove down to adjust his shin guards…and old Mayo ran right into that glove. And Porter put his hand back in his glove, and there was a that big Rat….
Well, Porter jumped and yelled, and threw the Rat, and Glove in the air, and it landed on a ladies lap…he jumped and screamed, and dropped her nachos and beer right into the bull pen all over Dan Quisenberry…who couldn’t pitch tha game cause he had Jalapeno juice in his eyes…..funny times

Speaking of tacos
how does the double header work tomorrow? If we score 7 in the afternoon game, before four o’clock, do we get tacos the same day? Or do we still wait until Friday? But then what if we score 7 in both games? Do we get 8 tacos?
that would be awesome
