IGT Sat June 11 NYM @ LAA

[Fman99]

Carlos "Cookie" Carrasco vs Michael Lorenzen. A late one, kids, 10:07 first pitch, so get that nap in today.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

In Lorenzen, the Angels probably have the 2nd best hitting pitcher in baseball too-- not that it will matter. But he used to hit a lot of bombs as a Cincinnati relief pitcher

Dad and I use to stay up for these

[metsmarathon]

Gotta say, I'm a big fan of the angels' city connect unis.

[batmagadanleadoff]

What's good about watching this game, I was just thinking, is getting to see Mike Trout live and in real time. Outside of Mets games, if I saw more than 10 Trout at bats in real time in my whole life, it'd be a fucking miracle. And the announcers are noting the same thing as I write this.

[Frayed Knot]

When does this Marsh guy have to get back to his day job as a roadie for the Tedeschi-Trucks band?

[metsmarathon]

That dude presents a hell of an argument against the beards and long hair movement going about baseball these days.

[Frayed Knot]

Yeah, there's a difference between 'I'm wearing it fashionably long' vs 'All the guys at the fillin' station where I work wear it this way'.

[roger_that]

Gil Hodges woulda shaved these dudes personally. And warshed their mouths out with Clorox just to be safe.

The City Connect Angels didn't connect on that double-play attempt.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Big break with an error on an easy dp and its 1st and 3rd, nobody out. Nido whiffs but here comes Zimmo.



3-0 bad guys in the 5th

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Dammit

[Gwreck]

1st and 3rd with none out and the Mets score none?



This is not a recipe for success.

Hardly ever see them

Yeah, and when I wrote "more than 10 Trout at bats in real time in my whole life", I was probably exaggerating by a factor of two. I bet I haven't seen more than five live Trout AB's outside of Mets games.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Carrasco seems to have seen enough of Trout and Ohtani

[Edgy MD]

So, this whole "two best players in the league" thing wasn't bullshit after all.

[kcmets]

Fuck Trout, Ohtani too...

OK, I've now seen enough of Trout and Ohtani. And I'm fucking sick of the both of them already.

[Edgy MD]

The problem is that we've written the rules so as to suppress the opportunity for any later Ruths to emerge. And now we've further re-written them so as to keep any Ohtanis from emerging either.

[nymr83]

didnt say i liked the rules! F the DH

[nymr83]

and that'll do it folks. we pitched to the 2 guys you shouldn't pitch to tonight.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Hey wait we just started another comeback

[kcmets]

Lorenzen exits, pitched a helluva game...

[Lefty Specialist]

Didn't stay up for this one and glad I didn't.

[Fman99]

Yeah I got drunk and fell asleep. At 10 PM.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Looks like we all slept through a 2 out 9th inning three-run Homer from Khalil Lee

[Frayed Knot]

Lee also made an ill-advised dive for a ball with several runners on. He whiffed on it as the ball rolled to the wall which both cleared the bases and handed 1B Jared Walsh a cycle completing triple.
