One more humiliating loss will potentially end the Philadelphia season--and give us our 1st real sweep (I think). Lot riding with Zack "His perception of his market value is greater than ours" Wheeler returns to the scene of his many victories and tragedies #LGM

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

No McNutty or Zimmo tonite

Guillorme

Marte

Lindor

Alondo DH

Escobar

Cahna CF

Smith 1B

Plummer LF

Mazieka



Bassitt

Plummertime!!

First-inning fury gives the Mets a 1-0 lead.

[Edgy MD]

I meant 3-0.



Not often you see three runs score on three straight fielder's choices.

[Edgy MD]

Smitty walks and Plummy gets a chance to knock out Zack Wheeler.

[Frayed Knot]

Didn't hit Wheels particularly hard, but ..

* Three to Zip

* Not a single swing and miss until the final pitch of the inning

* 32 bullets spent, aka: that much closer to getting into their pen

[roger_that]

"18-MPH differential between those two pitches"--doesn't he mean "difference"?

[Edgy MD]

Swinging and missing is Realmuto.

[Frayed Knot]

So I guess the combo of basketball and baseball gives A-Rod & Kay the night off.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Triple play gaydar activated

[Frayed Knot]

Y'know I got a big screen TV so I could see the game shrunk down to the 13-inch screen I owned several decades ago.

[Lefty Specialist]

Crucial point in the game and they're yukking it up with Alonso. God, I hate ESPN.

[Edgy MD]

Pitcher is in trouble.

[Edgy MD]

We'll take the run-scoring double-play.

[Lefty Specialist]

I DPNT CARE ABOUT THE HOME RUN DERBY. There's a game on.

[Edgy MD]

Another day, another Phillies challenge claiming a hitter taking a pitch off the knob of his bat is a hit batsman.

[Edgy MD]

Not this time, Philz.

Ahhh, but that's the issue. ESPN carries the HR Derby so, to them, it's the most important (maybe the Only important) day of the whole season.

[Lefty Specialist]

Wheeler getting his act together. Hope Bassitt doesn't give them any more.

[Lefty Specialist]

Dom just looks lost right now.

[Frayed Knot]

The basketball game just tipped off now.

Let's see which game ends first.

[Edgy MD]

Well, if Herrera has his way, the basketball game will end first even if it goes into triple overtime.

[Lefty Specialist]

Too bad this Met game is interrupting the David Cone and Joe Girardi love fest.

[Fman99]

Fuck these fucking ESPN hacks.



What happened to Jankow? I've been on the road for two days and caught XM audio of bits of the last two wins but missed big chunks of both.

[Frayed Knot]

Each pitcher has bounced back from his troublesome/million-pitch inning.

[Lefty Specialist]

Jankowski on IL, wrist, 6-8 weeks.

What happened to Jankow?

[Fman99]

Ugh, sucky
