They are the MFYs of the NL, so, you know, let's hate on them.



I'll start. Yadier Molina? That guy can die in a toilet drowning.

[Centerfield]

Pretty big series coming up. The Mets were one McNeil double-play away from getting swept in that series. Need a good showing here.



I think it's awesome that we concede the first one to them, burn out the pen, then play the second two hamstrung. Awesome.

Mets get two in the first and Vargas has the change working in the bottom of the inning.



Just as I'm thinking it's Backwards Day, Ozuna nearly jerks one to deep center, but the park held it. Sweet!



Also, Gary called McNeil "O'Neill," as if he's turning into Ralph Kiner or someone.



Backwards Day.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

We totally won the first inning

[Edgy MD]

Cool! Even Canó is hitting!

[kcmets]

Cano clickin'

[kcmets]

Leaving bases loaded, not a good recipe...

[Edgy MD]

Both shortstops are having trouble with the hot potato this evening.

[Frayed Knot]

Nearly three innings worth of pitches by Vargas to get through two (even though scoreless so far)

and nearly four innings worth by Wainwright to get him through the first two frames.



iow, we're busting through the three hour barrier once again for the 17th time in 19 games.

[kcmets]

If I ever grow hair again in another life, I may go with with the Vargas cut.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Still leaving too many guys on base. 😬

[Frayed Knot]

Four innings = Two hours (OK, more like 1:45, but still)

Doesn't help that it's also one time zone removed.



Say goodnight Gracie

[Edgy MD]

They let him bat in the top of the fifth inning, and then pull him before the bottom of the fifth inning?



The world is so fucked up.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Loogie did a great job getting out of trouble

[Edgy MD]

KAPOWIE!!

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Ka-smash

[Edgy MD]

I disagree with Keef and Gary. I'm fine with giving Lagares a sacrifice credit there.

[LWFS]

And THAT'S why the Astros let a kid like Davis get away. Fart.

[Edgy MD]

Things are getting smelly.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Yeah we're screwing this up again

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

C'mon Gzelly!

Don't be smelly!

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Gzelly!

[Edgy MD]

WHEW!!

[Edgy MD]

Making Goldy look moldy!!

[LWFS]

McNeil is our "closer" at third?



Apparent-fucking-ly.

[LWFS]

Go-ahead run is the man-monster at the plate. Yoy.

[LWFS]

... the man-monster who swings like he's drunk.

[LWFS]

Ugh.

[Edgy MD]

We're in Crazy time here.



And Molina, of all people, is up.
