Win tonight prevents the Braves' 10th overall 100-win season. Would be their first since 2004.

Pete-kaboom ties the record!!!!

Fitty-two.



Somewhere Céspedes is wondering if this was maybe the wrong season to miss.

[Edgy MD]

Damn. God bless Hubie Brooks.

[G-Fafif]

Polar. Solar. All the Bears.

Any Mets pitcher who can strike out Freddie F'n Freeman is a friend of mine.

I'm glad we got a few starts of seeing what the Stroman fuss was about. Gotta feel pretty good about having him around next year.

Yes. I got blinded by the blight* of his first few starts. His work to "adjust some mechanics" (I think he said it was his grip) has done wonders.

* if you use it, please remember where you got it

[Edgy MD]

Yeah, I was going to start a Stroman poll after the game. Even when he wasn't turning in much, he felt like he could be a piece of the puzzle.

Put it in the books! Mets win, Pete ties the record, all is well.

[Guest 41Forever]

Good game!

Mets still alive to top their preseason over/under of 85 1/2, a fact I'm aware of via a FAFIF reader who perennially bets the over and often has to sweat out his investment.
