Man, once again, fuck the WPIX network and their Mets deal. You know how many shitty pop ups I had to slog through to find a live stream of this game?

[Lefty Specialist]

Bassitt pitching well but the Mets Noffense seems to be in form again.

[Fman99]

Yeah lots of non clutch non performances at the plate when it matters tonight. And yesterday

[The Hot Corner]

The team seems to have collectively stopped hitting. Hits are few and far between and hits with runners in scoring position are practically nonexistent.

[Fman99]

Boy this feels just like yesterday's game. Ugh. Down 2-0 on a damn Padres dinger

[Frayed Knot]

Two nights in a row where a non-strike three gets followed by a HR

[ashie62]

Not another post all star break dive. I can't handle it

[The Hot Corner]

The Mets offense just doesn't give the pitchers much room for error.

[The Hot Corner]

The Braves on the other hand seemed to hitting on all cylinders right now.

[Frayed Knot]

Shades of last year when leadoff baserunners seemed to always decrease our odds of scoring.

[The Hot Corner]

Poor decision not to get the sure out at first on that ground ball by Alfaro.

Yep, dumb. One out away here from making it not matter. Here's to hoping

[The Hot Corner]

Ground out by Grisham for the second out (should be out of the inning). Runners at 2nd and 3rd. Big hitter for Bassitt.

[The Hot Corner]

Bassitt get the strike out to end the inning. The defense made him have to work overtime that inning.

[Fman99]

Christ. Running out of chances here.

[The Hot Corner]

Morejon was bringing some gas (consistent 98-99) out of the Padres pen. Didn't look to be throwing that hard, but he blowing it by the Mets hitters.

[Frayed Knot]

This is going to be so cool when Vogelbach gets the walk-off winner.

[Fman99]

Great inning by number 0

[Frayed Knot]

Machado's second consecutive strike out ... only the first one didn't count.

[kcmets]

Braves prolly gonna win tonight. Here we go!

[The Hot Corner]

Well, it's do or die time for the Mets. Alonso, Cahna, and Escobar against the Padres lefty closer.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

So we're in the 9th, down by 2, and it begins like 5 other of the 8, with a leadoff runner.

[Chad ochoseis]

Runner on first, none out. They've got us where they want us.

[kcmets]

Thought Canha had one there, but a good dozen feet short.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

And its a fly ball to the warning track for Cahna, and now, it's the king of warning track flies, Escobar. Who's also the Prince of "strikeouts when you need a hit."

.

[The Hot Corner]

That fly ball by Cahna to the edge of the LF warning track was the most excitement the Mets has provided thus far tonight.



Come on Escobar.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

And it's the Prince, who deeats the King. And so it's up to Luis Guillorme, the King of Dark Horse Mets

[kcmets]

Sloppy EscoK.
