But I didn't know it would be by LUIS!?!?!?!

[Guest 41Forever]

His first career homer!

Keith: "Someone up there likes the Mets!"

[Chad ochoseis]

Phrases I never thought I'd hear: "LUIS GUILLORME! TIES THE GAME! WITH A PINCH HIT HOME RUN!"

[Frayed Knot]

Turner and pooch

An Al Weis moment. (light hitting infielder hits a tater)

This f'n team's gonna' go all the way.

Later

Right move for the Nats to IW Alonso ... but that doesn't mean it'll work out for them.

[Guest 41Forever]

A-MAY-ZIN!!!

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Well I ll take the 1 run

[Chad ochoseis]

This is nice, but I have zero confidence that Diaz holds a one run lead.

[Guest 41Forever]

Damn, that was close!

This. Would be happy to be wrong, though.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Lugo wasn't perfect tonight ... except when he had to be.

[Guest 41Forever]

WOW!!!!!

[Frayed Knot]

Runnin' wild and lookin' pretty

[Edgy MD]

I was at the bar of a local Mets fan/freelance sports writer, and I had two premonitions.



1) "I know Lugo hasn't given up a run in a dog's age, but look at Soto's face. That MoFo is locked in. He totally knows what's coming ... " and KABOOM! or whatever you call a pounded homer by the opposition. Maybe a ¡MOOBAK.



2) Next inning, I'm all, "Look at that douchebag with the crooked ha ... holy shit, is that ... FERNANDO RODNEY?! THAT guy is still at it? He's been in the league since crunk was a thing and he's NEVER done anything against the Mets. I don't care if the Mets are sending Guillorme up here. This guy's TOTALLY gonna put his foot in it ..." and KABOOM! Except, this time it was a true Mets KABOOM!



Fucking KABOOM!



I paid my tab and headed to my car and Howie Rose took me home via the miracle of satellite radio. Despite getting to spend the game with a Mets fan or two, for some reason I wanted to follow the conclusion on my own. Actually, I wanted to follow it with youse guys.



Holy shit, right?

[Fman99]

Yeah, man, fantastic game. Brought the whole family down to the man cave to play family board/card games and watch the resurgent New York Fucking Mets win another game. Life is good, my friends, revel in it, soak it up.

[Edgy MD]

Are we really going to keep the streak alive with more Nick Gilder?
