IGT 9/1/2020: NYM @ BAL — Maryland Crabbiness

[G-Fafif]

Todd Frazier arrives to shake the Mets from their doldrums, just in time for this much-anticipated 1969 World Series rematch.



Somebody will pitch and others will also be involved, presumably.

[MFS62]

I can smell the Old Bay seasoning now.

Later

[MFS62]

According to Andy Martino (SNY), Ariel Jurado will be making his starting debut for the Mets.

It is Jurado. He has been little seen in the bigs, maybe he can fool them.

[smg58]

And the Orioles are perfectly capable of making other teams look good. There, optimism.

[Frayed Knot]

Remember that this game is, for some unknown reason, slated to start at 1935h rather than the usual 1905h

They had a delay getting the grill started at Boog Powell's Barbecue Stand to feed the hungry crowd?

Oh, wait.

Never mind.



Later

[ashie62]

The Orioles call up our old friend Dilson Herrera for tonight's game.

[G-Fafif]

Here come the Mets again...



Nimmo CF

Conforto RF

D. Smith 1B

Canó 2B

McNeil LF

Alonso DH

Guillorme 3B

Giménez SS

A. Sánchez C

[ashie62]

A lineup that shouts offense!

Punched in the nose by the Orioles. 3-0.

[ashie62]

Dang, this sucks

[Edgy MD]

I don't get Guillorme at third. If McNeil or Gimenez are available for duty over there, I put Guillorme at second or short. His hands around the bag are his best asset.

[Edgy MD]

Well, that was a long-assed two-run comeback by the Mets.

[Frayed Knot]

1) I know NONE of these Orioles

2) This game is 50/50 to be over by midnight

In that Johnny Cash song 'I've Been Everywhere', I think Valaika and Valazquez were two of the places he claimed to have been.

So if this is Gary's 18th anniversary then, seeing as how he's got post-college aged kids, it doesn't seem like 'Lynn' is Wifey #1 for him.

[Edgy MD]

Smitty is starting to look like the soft spot in the lineup now.



Let's hope this Canó guy stays hot. McNeil too.

Is not.

[Edgy MD]

"And now Michael Eshelman is replacing Asher Wojciechowski."



There's a new rabbi at Beth Israel?

[Fman99]

First major league kaboom for Mr. Gimenez. Brand new ballgame, and thankfully so.

[G-Fafif]

AG is the 85th Met with exactly 1 HR.

[Benjamin Grimm]

It's nice to see BIGPURPLE making a comeback lately!

[Edgy MD]

It's bad to see the Orioles retaking the lead.

Not digging Kilome's Rafael Montero imitation.
