Hands Up, Baby, Hands Up!

Play with no heart, no heart, no heart, no heart...
Hands up!... Baby, hands up!...
Play with no heart, no heart, no heart, no heart...
oh, la la... la la la la...

C'mon everyone, sing it out loud!

In yesterday's 6-2 loss to the D-Backs last night, Livan Hernandez threw his hands up in the air in frustration after leaving the game allowing 5 runs in just 4 innings of work - not the kind of outing the Mets needed after Pelfrey's debacle yesterday. The Mets defense wasn't much better.

And when Jerry Manuel filled out the lineup card, he threw his hands up in the air in disgust having to bat Fernando Tatis in the third spot with Daniel Murphy and his total of 7 homeruns all year cleanup.

When Alex Cora couldn't handle a simple ground ball in the first inning, which allowed Arizona to score their first run, he threw his hands up in the air in disbelief. And in the bottom of the eighth when Luis Castillo couldn't make the easiest of throws to firstbase setting up the D-Backs game-breaking final run, he threw his hands up in embarrassment.

Earlier in the game, Castillo threw his hands up in the air twice while batting, both times striking out in deference to the amazing pitcher that is Max Scherzer. Likewise for Brian Schneider, throwing his hands up in the air wondering when the pain would stop after striking out twice and seeing his season average dip below the Mendoza line at .198.

And of course, David Wright was hoping to get the day off. But instead he was needed to pinch hit in the top of the night. The result? He threw his hands up in the air in complete humiliation after striking out swinging against the mighty Esmerling Vasquez.

No fight... no heart... no intensity... nothing.

That's okay... we Met fans are used to it by now. We're numb to the pain at this point. It's time for a Club Med type vacation! C'mon everyone!!! - Hands up!! Baby Hands UP!!!
