The Mets aren't much for taking the extra base these days.


Pillar was a dead man if he tried for 3rd.

I was screaming NO!! the entire time.

The new Maz does it again. He was "on" every pitch. And Villar's run home. Wow.

If you can't get Pillar's home run, you should be happy to get Villar's run home.



Good win for the Tuesday Night Mets Club.

It really was. We suffered in the cold wind again for 9 long innings. Sat in field level behind left field fence, just one section over from where Pillars fake home run was hit. It was obviously foul to us and we felt like idiots cheering it. Hating hard on McCann and Alonso, worried for Almora who really hit the fence hard -- they wouldn't show a replay. McNeil was like my little league team pulling up before the bag and getting dead-ducked.



We had the whole 9th worked out, saw the outfielders way too deep for how Smith had been hitting lately, and knew Mazeika would come through somehow, but Villar's dash home was shockingly quick.



Rode the bike to and from!

You have a nice bike, right? You're obviously comfortable locking it and leaving it.

Tell us about that NOW!!! I'd be afraid it would be chopped up.

It's a good bike, I've realized since I got it it's easy to get a bike 3-4x more expensive these days. There were 2 other bikes on the racks last night -- if I were a thief I'd have stolen mine second.



The racks are alongside the left-field corner, close to the building and opposite where they've constructed these tents in the front lot where, I think, employees pass through fever-checkers. There was a temporary Amazon distribution center in those tents before the season. There's a security booth right there too, for the tents, not the bikes but it's right there.



And all that stuff in the lot is fenced off, so it's not really all that accessible for thieves, although I'm sure they could if they were determined.



Used 2 locks. Ride is short for me-- basically 80-some blocks, a straight line, about 4 miles or ~20 minutes so just as fast if not faster and cheaper than the subway

Sounds fun and cool, and I imagine the perimeter of the stadium is more secure than

what I was thinking earlier. Cameras everywhere these days.
