IGT Sun Apr 8 Mets @ Nats 8 PM

[Fman99]

Prime time, meaning, the dreadful ESPN broadcast and (I'm guessing) an endless Nats love-fest, despite them being a clearly inferior team.

[Lefty Specialist]

The Mets have a tendency to save their most dreadful performances for the national audience in prime time on ESPN.

Plus, it's Sunday. But these are Mickey's Mets so the past isn't necessarily prologue!

[Centerfield]

Oh man. How nice would it be to sweep these guys and send a message.

So giddy. Come on Harv!!!

[Frayed Knot]

So how soon before the Nats start bitching about ball/strike calls tonight?

Coming in to this series, I would have been delighted with two out of three. But now that a sweep is within our grasp, I really want that third win!

I'm hoping for a reprisal of this type of game.

[MFS62]

I'm very superstitious, and s***p is like a four letter word that should not be used before the game. I cringe when I hear sportscasters use the word. And the fact that it will be a Sunday night game on ESPN is making me antsier.
I prefer they say something like "The Mets have won the first two games of the series" and let it go at that.
On second thought, a true fan knows they won the first two games of the series.
LGM!

Does Yo sit tonight? He was 0 for 5 yesterday, isn't a fan of the cold, and it would allow Nimmo, Conforto and Bruce to play (RHP for WSH).
ANSWER: WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fine, keep your clothes on.

The production values of that video deserved better than that song.
I always preferred Goody Two Shoes. I believe that was an homage to the ten inch platform shoes he needed to reach the door knob.

(Channeling his best announcer's voice) And nowwww, back to tonight's game.

No runs, but good job grinding out the at-bats in the first inning.

[Frayed Knot]

ARod has used the phrase "one of the most underrated players in the league" three times already and it's just the bottom of the 1st.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Cabrera olay-ing that grounder hurt a little

[Frayed Knot]

So did the first four Nats in the game smacking the hell out of the ball.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Shitty AB by Rosario

[Lefty Specialist]

A-Rod says 'thing of beauty' a lot. He probably practices in the mirror.

[Guest 41Forever]

Harper. Grr.

Alex’s tie and shirt are an odd combo.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Rosario flailing at pitches like he's blindfolded.

[Guest 41Forever]

That was the most akward guy hug ever.

[Guest 41Forever]

Couple walks. Cabrera needs redemption for the ole.

[Guest 41Forever]

SLAMMOOOOOO

A-GON! A THING OF BEAUTY!!!!

[Frayed Knot]

Turns out the old dog still has a few tricks in his bag as he jumps Roark on the first pitch after three straight walks.
