Thread title is the first baseman making an over-the-shoulder catch, bumping into the right fielder, spinning, throwing and nailing at home the runner attempting to tag up from third.

Good one!

Man, Reyes likes to swing at that high junk and pop out.

[Edgy MD]

And man, the Phillies just out-head-in-the-game-d the Mets all over the field on that play.

Does deGrom have to perform a "favor" to get a run?

[Edgy MD]

I doubt it. I mean, it's not like they're supporting the rest of their starters.

[Edgy MD]

Conforto.

Into the shift.

[Edgy MD]

As Matt dD tracked down his second deep drive in the right-centerfield gap, Gary said, "It's good to have a centerfielder in centerfield."

As a fan and a half of Nimmo, I want to say that it was cheap, but it was fair and square.

MdD, like Lagares, gets the ball. Nice to see him in CF again.

[Guest d'Kong76]

Would it kill us, to score, a freakin' run, for deGrom? It's maddening.

[ashie62]

This is surreal

[Edgy MD]

deGrom is so awesome, he should have a Saturday morning cartoon about him.

Rosario works a walk. Unlikely things can happen!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

up to Droobie

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Rosario steals a base.

[Edgy MD]

ALL WE NEED IS ONE PIN, RODNEY!!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

intentional walk, lefty on the way in to get Conforto

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

this would be a good opportunity for Conforto to bust out of his slump. I feel like he's turned into an athletic Ike Davis.

[Edgy MD]

And ... the fucking shift wins again.

Right now I'd take a flabby Craig Brazell. I saw HIM hit a game winning homer.

OE:Oops, too late.

Conforto hits a weak ground ball into the teeth of the shift to end the inning. What a surprise.

[Frayed Knot]

You people do realize that Wilmer is due up in the bottom half of the inning, right?

Has he been checked for Valley Fever?

Let's see if Wilmer has another one in him.

[Edgy MD]

Show us the idiot on the field !!

Plus, the only games we win these days are via walk-offs.

[ashie62]

WILMER!

Knapp runs himself into an out to end the Phillies half of the 10th.
