[Edgy MD]

Phils open by getting a two-out hit by Harpie, followed by two stolen bases. Gregorius drove one to the wall but was punk'd by a terrific over-the shoulder grab by Firefighter Conforto.

I slept late. Boo for Ashie.



LGM

[Edgy MD]

Three hits by the Mets in the first, all hit hard, all breaking pitches hit by lefties. Only one run, though, as Nimmo was caught thieving.

[Frayed Knot]

In addition to all the runners our sticks have stranded, our runners have done a good job at erasing themselves--- caught stealings, pickoffs, bad advances, etc.



And right as I'm typing, Dom cashes one in ... although it could have been better

[ashie62]

deGrom getting deshelled

[Edgy MD]

Nah, he just gave up a solo homer.

[Edgy MD]

And Alonso erases that with a solo homer on his first pitch.

[Frayed Knot]

JdG is at a sub-average pitch count thru four.

Even when he's pitched well it's often taken him a lot of chucks.

[Edgy MD]

Hey, Frayed Knot, Nimmo is a triple short of the cycle!

[Edgy MD]

One run, three hits and seven strikeouts over seven innings for deGromio.



How's that for 10 cc's of ringer's lactate?

12 K's.

[batmagadanleadoff]

He entered the game with 1.76 ERA and lowered it to 1.69.

Just as no announcers tout that fact as impending news ... I'm OK with it.

[Frayed Knot]

So this Phil's pitcher Mauricio Llovera joins David Aardsma in the All-Double Opening letter name team.

Not sure how many others there are, but does anyone remember brief NYY hurler Kevin Mmahat?

[Edgy MD]

Looks like Wilson Ramos opted out but forgot to tell anybody.

I am quite the hasty typist.

The Mets have another one in Graeme Lloyd.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

This is getting enjoyable

[Edgy MD]

Sheesh, the Phils aren't even mailing it in at this point.



I've seen Andrew McCutcheon for a lot of years. I'd never have described him as a lollygagger, but that was embarrassing. Everybody hits today.

[Frayed Knot]

Robert Eenhoorn -- Yanx & Angels mid-90s

And while Kirk Saarloos (Astros, Reds, A's 2002-2006) doesn't qualify for this list, he joins Eenhoorn in the rare double double-vowel combo name.

Looks like Wilson Ramos has just opted back in.



Everybody really is hitting.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

I want Neil Walker warming up

Don Aase.

[Edgy MD]

Man, we should be getting some flaming hot Erasmo Ramirez action here.

[Edgy MD]

Well, first thing, Garlick, is you gotta requisition a new name.

[MFS62]

When I think doubles, I think Winston LLenas - really.
