IGT 6/25/2021 (1): PHI@NYM — First Dip

[Edgy MD]

I'd've bunted three times before going down. Come on.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Yeah, suck it, Nola

[Edgy MD]

The bad news is ... one of us is going to have sleep with Alonso.

[Frayed Knot]

I was just about to say that the one hood thing about today's game was that Nola would be unable to match 27 straight K's ... cuz it was starting to look like it was a possibility.

[G-Fafif]

Pete preserves.

[Edgy MD]

Nola has clearly stolen deGrom's soul.

[Edgy MD]

Not a small chance that TaiJuan gets hit for this inning.

[ashie62]

Somebody get a bat on the ball. Please.

[Frayed Knot]

Of course I feel the need to point out that Seaver had his opportunity for 11 straight K's (or more) cut off by the ending of the game.

[Edgy MD]

Another one of those bunt singles, Guillorme!

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Billy Batts put some good wood on that one. Encouraging

Not really. Had Seaver struck out the next batter he faced, Maury Wills, four days later, (remember four man rotations and three days rest in between starts?) he would've been credited with striking out 11 straight batters. He didn't, and wasn't.

Why would they be strategic when they can waive at curveballs out of the strike zone all night?

[Edgy MD]

I'm not sure there is a strike zone this afternoon, but I hear you.



It's kind of disappointing that Nola didn't get an announcement.

[G-Fafif]

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Here we go, a leadoff HBP.

[Ceetar]

7 inning games are the worst. this is stupid.

No way we can't score with that kind of inning opener.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

We're going to win

[Edgy MD]

Nola to the bench.



Not comfortable with the DP set up. Phillie's infield defense gives me a little more calm, though.

[Edgy MD]

No GiDP gonna happen now.

[Frayed Knot]

WOWZERS!!

I wasn't expecting that. (the double steal)

Now it might

[Edgy MD]

Well, the walk brings the GiDP back into play, but sets up a bases-loaded walk, too.

[Frayed Knot]

We're the kings of the bases-loaded BB this season ... and we've got just the pitcher for it

[Gwreck]

Don't you dare McCann

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Dammccann

[Edgy MD]

Not canny, McCanny.

[bmfc1]

Chance Sisco couldn't be any worse than McCann.

[Gwreck]

Or Wilson Ramos?
