It just occurred to me that ESPN's main crew did the game from London this afternoon/morning so we won't be hearing Vasgerian-Mendoza-Rodriguez tonight.

Not sure who their backup crew is. Schiambi/Sutcliffe?

[MFS62]

Not sure who it will be, but the thought of their regular crew with jet lag is scary.

Nice of the 1st base ump to yell 'INFIELD FLY' right into Alonso's microphone.

[Frayed Knot]

That would make for a good trivia question - the one Kirkjian just recited

Most career HRs while never hitting 50 -- Hank Aaron (755 total)

Most w/o ever hitting 40 or more -- Eddie Murray (504)

Most w/o ever hitting 30 -- Al Kaline (399)

Most w/o ever topping 20 -- Ron Fairly at a whopping 215! (I wonder if even Ran Fairly knows the answer to that one)

[Frayed Knot]

It's so unlike ESPN to spend part of the game plugging a different ESPN event.

It's so unlike ESPN to spend part of the game plugging other ESPN events.

If we get out of the inning down by only five runs I'd consider it an accomplishment.



oe: 2 down, 3 to go, and still no outs

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Looking good, Flexy🙁

[Guest 41Forever]

Incredible. Game tied. Single. Double. Double. Down by two.

[ashie62]

Same as it ever was

[Edgy MD]

It'd be nice to get someone on base for the Mets home runs.



Todd Frazier doing all he can do of late to climb the Mets' all-time list of Todds.



And OH, Canó is down.

[kcmets]

Kinda has that 'nother sweep vibe again tonight.



And then Frazier kabooms as I type.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

We're going to screw this opportunity aren't we

[Edgy MD]

Hope not.



I've come down to just rooting for walks with Conforto. And hey, that's what we got.

[Edgy MD]

Two-run bingle!!!

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Fuckin McNeil. What a stud

[Fman99]

Yeah, Jeff Fucking McNeil!

[Frayed Knot]

Braves got us just where they want us.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Yeah I can't remember Conforto's last hit.



Alonso needs to make this safe for the pen

[kcmets]

Hey!! We dinked and dunked one!

[Edgy MD]

Alonso can impregnate a mare or two also.

[Frayed Knot]

Diaz is REALLY going to need to save this one - or else he'll be polling behind DiBlasio in the polls (assuming he isn't already).

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Not satisfied till we fuck up Blevins here

LOL

[Edgy MD]

Can the Mets send deGrom out for the ninth?

[Frayed Knot]

Top o' the Braves order.

Fasten seatbelts.

[Frayed Knot]

btw, props to Wilmer Font.

This isn't possible without him quashing the previous inning's potential dumpster fire.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

When he's not setting the place on fire Font's been pretty good
