Mets seem to go for homers instead of table setters these days, although it ain't really working out so much.



Also, Nido may be the weakest hitter on the team, but he's hit the ball hard all night.



I think I go for Canha, who can get a walk as well as a bomb, and Inciarte can run for him if he gets on.

[Edgy MD]

And Canha it is.

Paul Clemons appears to have a big date tonight.

What Met has ever had "better hands" than this guy? I mean, like, ever?

Sometimes you don't believe in guys and yet you still gotta believe in them

Did Strike One to Nimmo miss the zone by 5 inches or was it 8?

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Tie Game!!!

[Edgy MD]

SEXTRA-BASE-HIT TIES IT!!!

[Marshmallowmilkshake]

Marte! Just bring him home!

[Frayed Knot]

That wasn't fair by much.

It hit foul but appeared to go over the bag.

[Edgy MD]

Marte needs to be ready to score if they bounce a slider to Alonso.

[Gwreck]

Curious approach by Lindor and Alonso both swinging first pitch.

[Lefty Specialist]

Alonso 4 for 4 but bleh when it counted.

[bmfc1]

Nah, "All-Star" Pete took a big cut at the first pitch instead of making a POS pitcher work. This after "All-Star" Lindor also swung at the first pitch. Maybe Strickland was shaken after giving up the double but we'll never know. What is Chilli Davis doing these days?

[Edgy MD]

That swinging at the first pitch is possibly in part a product of the ump's super strike zone.

He called those pitches like he had money on the game.

Scare quotes for a guy with a .903 OPS? We can be fair here.

[Lefty Specialist]

OK, extras. Do something, guys.

[Edgy MD]

Reds down to one guy on the bench.



Of course, it's Joey Votto.



And speaking of benches, the Mets just pinch-run for Alonso.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Agreed with Gary and Zeile on defending the bunt... not that it mattered

You're right but he hasn't looked like an All-Star lately, plus zero HR's in 9 games.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Go Dom

[bmfc1]

Phew!

[Edgy MD]

Doublenic Smith.

[Edgy MD]

Mets, if you've got to leave the dugout, go through a gate instead of hopping the rail.

[Marshmallowmilkshake]

Visiting relatives in Stony Brook tonight, and it's the first time I've been blacked out for a game with the MLB ap! Following on GameDay isn't quite the same.

[Lefty Specialist]

Walking someone to get to McCann is always a good move.

Well, okay, not ALWAYS.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Good night for "guys" that "suck."
