IGT 8/23 Braves @ Mets deGrominate in Beastmode

[ashie62]

The Indians are beaten in three games straight. Another team comes to Citifield, that for better or worse, is named in reference to Native Americans.



I really don't like the Braves. The Braves sucked gas in the 1969 Playoffs as they still do today. do the Mets have trouble beating the Braves? Maybe



That stops tonight. Met bats get a look at pitcher Mike Foltynewicz. Mikey has regressed from whatever good form he showed about two years ago.



He really has trouble throwing strikes. Good



The Mets do give up 90 to the Braves in DRS runs scored



Jacob deGrom throws strike, consistently.



deGrom busts inside and Alonso busts out tonight



Tomahawk the Braves!

I'm going to label this one a "Big Game", not only for the benefit that would come from winning a game against the Braves, but also from avoiding the negative aspect of a series-opening loss with deGrom on the mound.

Nice job MLB, big game and the players are wearing ballet outfits and long underwear.

[Lefty Specialist]

These white uniforms are reeeeeeediculous.

[dinosaur jesus]

This is unwatchable. I can't look at these uniforms.

[ashie62]

Unis are sooo bad it brought out Dinosaur Jesus



Frazier gets a rest



I'm thinking Seinfeld with the "puffy shirt"

[Frayed Knot]

I ask you, how much more white can these uniforms get? And the answer is: None. None more white

[ashie62]

I could make a political "white" analogy...nah



Keith, let up on Alonso

[A Boy Named Seo]

These guys look like shit! Radio night!

[Guest 41Forever]

I'm usually OK with ML B having some fun with special uniforms. But these are stupid.

[Frayed Knot]

Of all the negative advance notice about Pete Alonso's defense, his biggest problem has turned out to be overaggressiveness to his right side.

That's got to be at least the fourth play just in the last few weeks where he dove for a ball, which he then either muffed or deflected, that

looked like it could be handled by the 2nd baseman had he let it go.

[Lefty Specialist]

So why are both teams wearing a 45 on their sleeves?

[ashie62]

I would not like to see Alonso on Adderal



The kid is pennant race jacked...in a good way

[Frayed Knot]

The white unis make it look like the ghost of Jacob deGrom is pitching out there.

[ashie62]

deGrom strikes out the side notching #200

When did the Mets become a cricket club?

It looks like there is nothing but umps on defense.

Force yourself. They may be ugly uniforms, but one of them is wrapped around Jacob deGrom. And he is dealing. Seven strikeouts in a row.

8 Ks in a row. And his uni nickname is deGrom. There is absolutely no bullshit about the man.

[kcmets]

This latest MLB uni-gimmick isn't all weekend, is it

[Frayed Knot]

Oh well, game over.

[Frayed Knot]

Oh well, game over.

[Edgy MD]

Crap. I've never seen a catcher get bonked that hard.

[Edgy MD]

Not for nothing, but when the trainer is checking the player to see if he's knocked silly, the manager probably shouldn't be there.

[ashie62]

12 k's and we are down 1-0, Hogan!!!!
