Mets LH Jason Vargas (6-9, 6.47)
Gnats RH Max Scherzer (17-7, 2.53)

[Benjamin Grimm]

So how many runs do the Mets have to score tonight to get Scherzer's ERA over 9.00?

Around 150.

[Benjamin Grimm]

That might be a bit much.

Maybe they should shoot for 8.00 instead.

149 will do it, as long as it's without an out.

2 runs in 6.1 insures Scherzer's ERA goes up.

Love to see that speed at the top of the lineup.

I imagine there would be quite an uproar if the Nationals manager left Scherzer on the mound long enough to give up 150 earned runs!

But yeah, I suppose it might happen.

The Nationals "Winterfest" is December 1 and 2. Have the Mets announced their Winterfest dates yet?

It will take place on a warm winter's day in hell.

2% of the way there.

[Frayed Knot]

6th triple of the (partial) season for McNeil in not yet 200 ABs
It comes on the same night as only his 2nd two-strikeout game.

Howie Rose's tone told me that shot by Harper was gone, gone, gone.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

crud. Swarzy

wonder if Howie was watching the tv instead of the field because the cameraman was also fooled and Howie is always complaining about how far away they make the broadcasters sit in that park.

[Edgy MD]

Keith too, and they're right. That press box is ridiculous. Keep in mind that Harry Kalas died up there.

Howie's tone wasn't nearly as disconcerting as Swarzak's pitchin', sadly.

[Edgy MD]

Whoah! A mid-at-bat tossing of McNeilio.

[Edgy MD]

And he's not thrown out after all. I guess that's another side effect of the press box being in the ionosphere.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

yeah it was Mickey run not McNeil.

Bases loaded, 1 out... for Reinheimer

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

123DP

[Centerfield]

Maybe take a strike from someone who has walked two straight and thrown 7 straight balls?

[Edgy MD]

Get outa here, Harpie!!

[Centerfield]

All umpires have their heads up their ass today.

Home plate blue has been killing the Mets al night. Mickey needed to be rung 3 innings ago.

[Edgy MD]

Nimmo is so hubba-hubba.

[Edgy MD]

Bunting is an elusive skill, man.

[bmfc1]

Hard to believe that Austin Jackson was released by only 2 teams this season. Good thing for him he found a team dumb enough to keep him.
