And the Cards don't have a hard hit ball in this inning either.





oe: But Lugo gets out of it anyway!!!

Keith was talking in Carpenter's last AB how you don't speed up his bat with off-speed shit. So Seth blows him away w/heat.

FWOOOSH.



A trivial rooting-related hill I will die on (that even stadium staff seems to screw up these days): "LGM" is an offense chant.

Hope that Frazier whiff don't come back to bite in the boo boo...

Funny that if Molina is left in the run for himself he likely doesn't even try to score and the Cards get at least one more crack at it.



Actually a pretty good outing by Diaz. Two of the three runners were an infield single and a piece o' shit bloop that fell in in front of a deep OF.



Had Roasrio picked up the relay throw cleanly Thursday night, the Mets could have (should have!) won two games in this series via the tying run getting thrown out at home.

Conforto should have waved off McNeil. Of course, if he did that and still didn't catch the ball, the game is tied. The third base coach gambled on McNeil not anticipating the runner might try to score from first. Given that there were two outs and McNeil was running the opposite direction and could only guess at what was going on behind him, it was a better gamble than it wound up looking. But I'm all for heads-up defense making the other team look bad.

It helps not having to play defense in a monsoon.

the out because there's no way you even think about sending anyone named Molina on that play.


I would have sent Alfred Molina. He was one step ahead of Indiana Jones until the tarantulas ate him.
