IGT Thurs April 4 2019 WAS @ NYM

[Fman99]

Home opener. A 1:10 start for Thor. Due to meetings I will miss nearly all of this game. Damn weekday life. LGM!

[kcmets]

[Centerfield]

Nervous about this one. Not that the game means a heck of a lot in the grand scheme of things, but man, would it be nice to win in front of a packed house, beat Strassberg twice, and drop them to 2-4.

[A Boy Named Seo]

I wonder how much the wacky travel will really affect the guys. Saw the bus from the airport to Citi Field arrived at 2:45AM. Then everyone back to wherever they're going, and asleep by 3:30 or 4? Rough turn-around, but hopefully the joint is jumpin' and the adrenaline takes over.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I hope/assume that Syndergaard left Miami earlier than the rest of the team?

[kcmets]

Yes, they mentioned it yesterday that he'll be on full night's rest.

[Fman99]

The home opener: more fun than a wet nurse. Less fun than wet nurses.

[Methead]

Changing the culture, one nail-biter at a time

[Fman99]

My meeting starts at 2. I get an inning or two of audio with Howie and, uh, the other guy, via XM.

[Edgy MD]

Nimmo didn't waste much time getting his first whiff in.



Nimmo 2019: Not Rich Becker, but a loving tribute to Rich Becker.



Meanwhile, the Nats go up 1-0 on squeezie.

[Centerfield]

Jesus. Just hand them their first run Noah.

Howie & Josh > Howie & this guy

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Double no hitter? I'm following from a conference in Philly

[Edgy MD]

Yup. The only Nats run was scored without a hit.

[Centerfield]

Omg. Noah's going to throw a no-hitter and we're going to lose.

[Willets Point]

The Mets break up their no-hitter first!

[Willets Point]

And there goes the other no-hitter.

[Guest 41Forever]

Rats.

[Lefty Specialist]

Robles homered to left (382 feet)

[Edgy MD]

Bring on Jussie Wilson.

[Centerfield]

Losing home openers suck. Getting shut out is the worst. Come one guys. Who needs exit velocity?

[A Boy Named Seo]

Wilson looked damn good. Let's get some runs already.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Stras is dealing and all, but the boys look like they're sleep-walking today.

[Edgy MD]

HIT A BOMB, DOM!!

[nymr83]

dont let Lagares bat - D Smith time!!

[A Boy Named Seo]

Jeff and Amed with back-to-back 2-out singles, trying to wake the fellas from this slumber.



Appropriately, Sleepy Dom announced to PH. Pitching change coming. Stay tuned!!!
