A little off topic, and by no means am I trying to rain on the parade, but I know a lot of Mets fans personally who aren't sharing the excitement I've seen here and in the media.

Beltran was clearly robbed of a base hit, the ball landed fair, dead smack on the chalk, and it was so blatant that these guys I know who are lifelong degenerate Mets fans feel the whole thing is a total asterisk. The guy really didn't throw a no-hitter.

No hitters and perfect games should never be decided by accidents, mistakes, bad calls, etc. even though we know sometimes they are. Armando Galaraga and Jim Joyce say hello.

Default In n Out Burgers

For my first 49 yrs in Texas we had no In N Out Burger joints. IN the last year they have built about 100 in N. Texas. They are literally on almost every street corner now. I think they have over built. Their burgers are good but do we really need one on every freaking corner? Scott- you should have asked for your burger "animal Style." It rocks.

BTW, back to topic. Bad calls are a part of the game. And on the original question, I personally think the fans should hold out for every darned penny they can get for a ball they get at a game. Why not, the owners and team make tons of money.

Bad calls are indeed a part of the game, but you have a franchise and a fan base celebrating something that really didn't happen...because of a bad call.

Santana didn't throw a no hitter, the third base umpire did.

I was not impressed with my first trip to In-n-Out which was this year in San Fran. I like 5 Guys much better.

my uncle told me a story about when use to go to braves game's in the late 60's and caught a couple of hank aarons homerun balls. He had sought out hank aaron to have him sign them and i guess he acted like a jerk and he thrown the balls away because he made him so mad bye the way he acted.

All this talk about In-n-Out is making me hungry. Must be time to run over and grab a double double for lunch.

Never been to an in and out. The big deal out here (Seattle) is Jack in the Box, but I've never been their either.

When I lived in Australia it was Hungry' Jacks, which was the Aussie equivalent of Burger King.
