IGT 07/31 - Reds at Mets - Carnac, Where Are You?

[kcmets]

Miley 8-4, 2.86

Hill 6-4, 3.95

[Lefty Specialist]

Are they broadcasting the induction ceremonies?



Has Jon Matlack been sitting in a jar on Funk & Wagnall's front porch since noon today?

[ashie62]

They could re-enact the Ralph Garr....Nah



In comes Baez down goes deGrom.



They should start Pillar in right and McNeil in left with Guillorme at short.

[ashie62]

Did not realize Nimmo tweaked his hammy. It never ends.



And Conforto does sit.

[bmfc1]

Waive Villar. Idiot.

[bmfc1]

It should be tied but Baez brings them close.



Awful job by whoever is directing the game for SNY, with a lingering shot of the Apple (who cares, we've seen it) and then showing a replay of Lindor exulting while Baez was taking a curtain call.

[Lefty Specialist]

Villar simply cannot get picked off there. It's not like he's stealing third.



Nice shot by Baez, though.

[Fman99]

Listening again on XM. Can Votto keep his streak going?

[Lefty Specialist]

No.



I was hoping that the pickoff was not a way for the Reds to steal a run.

[Frayed Knot]

McNeil, Baez, McCann for the tie/win

[Edgy MD]

Hembree is not showing me anything.



Don't try to overdo it, Javier.

[Edgy MD]

All we needed was contact, Javier.

[Edgy MD]

Slider after slider off the plate gets Hembree two strikeouts when the team desperately needed anything but strikeouts.

[bmfc1]

This asshole hasn't thrown a strike but Baez and McCann gave him help.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Dom gets it done!

[Edgy MD]

AND A SINGLE TIES IT UP!



DOWN TO THE LAST STRIKE!

[bmfc1]

It wasn't Frazier against Doolittle but close.

[Edgy MD]

Time for magic runner baseball.

[Fman99]

Yeah Dom! Sean Doolittle, eternally terrible against the Mutts.

[Lefty Specialist]

Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in.



But now Diaz in a non-save situation.

[Edgy MD]

Gosh, getting Votto to chase is a major league sort of thing.

[bmfc1]

When a Met swings at a pitch 6 inches out of the strike zone: how can he swing at that crap?

When an opposing hitter swings at a pitch 6 inches out of the strike zone: that's great pitching!

[Edgy MD]

If we can get to Luis Cessa here, it will mean the Céspedes trade is still paying dividends!

[Edgy MD]

WOWBOBWOW!1!!

[bmfc1]

Reporting for Drury Duty!

[Edgy MD]

Two things I noticed:



1) I think Winker's throw on the winning pitch bounced off the mound and hit Cessa as he was walking off.



2) I think celebrating walkoffs by stripping jerseys off may be at least a little dangerous. A jacked up player trying to tear away at the button down from behind can really wrench your shoulder. At least, it kind of looked like Conforto did that to Drury.

The Mets have lost a lot of winnable games this year. This one felt like a game they should have lost but won instead.

[G-Fafif]

Jon Matlack saw this win in the making hours, maybe years (48 perhaps), before it became reality. That's http://www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2021/08/01/alls-wall-that-ends-well/my story, at any rate.
