[Benjamin Grimm]

I'm really glad that Walker is back.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Underway. Got away with a foul ball call on what should have been a passed ball

[Willets Point]

Freeman k's on a pitch at his eye-level.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

And Nido erases Acuna stealing

[Willets Point]

Acuna nabbed stealing. No replay necessary.

[Willets Point]

An early lead courtesy of James McCann is a pleasant surprise.

[Willets Point]

Maybin beaned on the funny bone. Looks really ouchy. I'm hoping he isn't joining the IL club.

[Willets Point]

Walker, uh, walks! Bases loaded for Villar!

[ashie62]

LGM!

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Almost

[Willets Point]

And Villar hits a drive to the deep warning track. Sigh.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Heredia plays with a head of steam. I liked him as a Met

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Holy shit I jinxed Heredia, and McCann is halfway to a cycle

[Frayed Knot]

Speed kills!

[Willets Point]

Heredia did not have enough steam to catch up with that McCann drive. Falls in for a triple.

Lol

[Willets Point]

Actually, official scorer ruling is pending. I'd give 'em a hit.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Yeah, Dommie

Yeah, but he gave him the odd scoring of a double plus an error (I guess for failing to pick up the ball cleanly) so the toughest part of McCann's attempt for the cycle remains unchecked.

[Methead]

Villar, nothing but net

So now it's time for one of the silliest phrases in baseball broadcasting: James McCann is just a triple away from the cycle.

[Frayed Knot]

Ian Anderson heard songs from Mets' wood tonight.

[MFS62]

The way McCann is hitting, when he comes off the[CROSSOUT] D[/CROSSOUT]IL, Alonso is going to have a tough time getting back into the lineup.

(I couldn't even type that with a straight face)



Later

[bmfc1]

I'd feel even better about this game if Walker was able to get through 6 and not 5 but the up-downs are determinative and that's that.

[bmfc1]

[Frayed Knot]

And a mighty blow it was!

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Hooray for Maybin
