Obvious typo in your post, kcmets. You must have meant 1.80, probably 2.80 for deGrom's ERA.



Did you hear ESPN's crew last night opine that deGrom cannot possibly break Bob Gibson's 1.12 ERA mark? Seemed pretty lame to me--of course, it's unlikely that Jake won't Brake at some point during the season, but they were talking very disrespectfully of his abilities, seems to me. And you know that if he pulls it off, they're going to be all "I knew it all along!"

A holiday game that starts at 9:40 PM local time. That's not stupid or anything, I guess

Yeah, Mason Williams, welcome to the New York Fuckin Mets!

Yeah, Mason Williams, welcome to the New York Fuckin Mets!

Much better decision than their first choice for a call-up, Mason Reese

3 hits no runs so far

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Your moment big guy

[Frayed Knot]

When JdG pitches, even our hits w/RiSP don't score runs.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Here we go. 2-out, 2-run hit

[Edgy MD]

I would have liked to see Peraza get a better jump there, but he would have been a dead duck on that throw.



And Pete picks it up. Very sweet.

[Fman99]

Yeah, Pete! Look at that, two runs for deG

[LWFS]

Wait... not watching, but following idly on Gameday for the time being (while waiting for the young'un to finish her movie). It ended up being moot, thankfully, but was there any earthly reason why Peraza wasn't sent on a hit to the outfield with two outs?

[Fman99]

It was a particularly hard hit single to right and Reddick came up gunning. Peraza would have been dead to rights had he been sent. It was a smart call.

[Fman99]

Jeez, Keith dropping the "no no" reference. Does he know that that's the jinx? C'mon, man.

LOL that was great.

[Edgy MD]

I understand Marte and Peralta getting confused. They kind of rock the same look.

[kcmets]

deGrom flashin' the bat, lotta fun.

[Lefty Specialist]

Jake cashing in the cheap run. We're not worthy.

[Edgy MD]

Yeah, I feel honored to be watching this guy.

[Fman99]

Right around 50 pitches through the first four innings. He's cruising, boys. Settle in. I may need another cocktail here.

[Gwreck]

=bmfc1 post_id=66063 time=1622489354 user_id=73]This is all or part of ESPN's doing as ATL's home game within the same time zone doesn't start until 5:10 b/c they were on the road last night. The ramifications of a Sunday Night game linger and are indeed stupid.

That double was vintage Dom.

[Fman99]

God dammit!

Jacob just wanted an outfielder to get to touch the ball before the game was over.
