IGT 7/5/22 To the Max

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Things are not looking all that good.



This is the Tommy Pham Game

[Edgy MD]

Just one reason I reject the disappearance of foul territory in the outfield.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Lugo looks like he's aiming

[Edgy MD]

Come on Lulu. Throw one up and in.

[Edgy MD]

Lest it go unsaid, every manager in the world should have gone to his #1 reliever here.

[Lefty Specialist]

Lugo just not good on back-to-back nights.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Well it's time for that Triple Play

[Frayed Knot]

NYM win pct hovering near 0%

[Edgy MD]

Well, this is less than ideal.



Far, far less than ideal.



Moose is about as solid a triple-play threat as there can be.

Yeah, I mean, I know this, and I'm full of beer and barely trying to know anything. But here we are

Flebh.

[TransMonk]

This game gave me nauseating flashbacks of July 2015.



Offenses wasting gems are no fun.

[Fman99]

Well that sucked a big fat dong-a-roonie-a-loonie

[Edgy MD]

It's a Phammy affair.

[roger_that]

Boy, did that suck!

[Frayed Knot]

First well struck ball of the night wins the game for Cincy

[roger_that]

Makes you wonder....

[MFS62]

Joe Schultz.

[The Hot Corner]

Horrible loss! A great return by Max Scherzer, but the Mets noffense squandered what should have been a great night for the Mets.

[ashie62]

The Reds AAA team had Hunter Green Nick Lololo and Micheal Lorenzen at the same time. Lorenzen is in the Angels rotation this year.

In the cool light of day, it's not that horrible. Horrible game, of course, but in the long run our offense is good, and the great showing by Schezrer means there will be many more games like that from him, and more than a couple of runs on the board.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I'd like to think that Hunter Greene has sisters named Kelly and Olive.

And Jade and Fern make a lovely pair of twins, but once you get past them, you meet the younger kids who got stuck with names like Pea and Cadmium.

Thanks for the warm welcome.



5 innings/75 pitches/5 Ks?



You got the over or under on Mad Max tonight?



I'm taking the over on all 3.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

It's about time we had someone who knows what they are talking about join us.

And some super-cool Andy Warhol avatar, too - art from when Warhol was pioneering, practically inventing pop art. Not the Warhol crap from the 70s when Warhol was simply rinsing and repeating what he'd already done 10-15 years earlier just for the money. Seaver in a fucking Reds uniform. Oh my.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I'm glad soupcan was able to find us at our new location.

Didn't you tell me that the whole idea behind moving was so he wouldn't find us?

Or maybe that was Edgy, I can't remember.





Wait, did I just type that out loud?

Binghamton Rumble Ponies, Hartford Yard Goats, New Hampshire Fisher Cats, Portland Sea Dogs, Reading Fightin' Phils, Somerset Patriots, Akron RubberDucks, Altoona Curve, Bowie Baysox, Erie SeaWolves, Harrisburg Senators, Richmond Flying Squirrels. Unfortunately, marketers mostly have come to the conclusion that minor league baseball is kind of an embarrassing burlesque of an enterprise and have decided to lean into that and encourage teams to sell themselves as such.

Altoona curve is named after the Horseshoe Curve. I love minor league games!
