IGT 8/5/2022: ATL@NYM — Black Out the Braves

[ashie62]

Good lord, I've had enough for now.

[seawolf17]

Gonna be a long night, methinks. Six more inches on that Alonso shot and this is a whole different game.

[Frayed Knot]

So this one isn't starting well.

[Fman99]

Yeesh

[seawolf17]

You hate to do it to a guy like Walker, but unless there's an injury there from the weird spike thing three batters in, you've got to send him out there as long as you can with eighteen innings tomorrow.

[seawolf17]

Or not.

[Frayed Knot]

Even the visit from Nancy Pelosi earlier this week wasn't enough to inspire Walker tonight.

[Frayed Knot]

Well at least the 2nd inning was only 4 runs and 8 batters coming to the plate. Much better than the 1st when 4 runs were scored and 8 batters came to the plate.

[kcmets]

Ian starting to hit some sour notes on his flute with bases loaded.

[Frayed Knot]

Need rule: any pitching who visits the mound with an 8 run lead is suspended for the season.

[kcmets]

Guillorme's second boner of the game.

[seawolf17]

Why the hell are you sending Luis there? For fuck's sake.

[Edgy MD]

Nimmo came up with the bases filled with bearded men.



Guillorme is not swift.

[MFS62]

Checking the minor league scoreboard (this is going to be a long night):

Syracuse up 4-0 in the 4th. Alvarez went deep for his 5th AAA home run. Vientos hasn't ben in the starting lineup for a few days but did hit a pinch hit homer a few games ago.



Binghamton won the first game (end of a rain suspended game) 11-8. Bret Baty went 3-4 with 2 HR and 4 RBI. Game 2 just starting.



Brooklyn leading 2-0 after 4. A Ramirez is 0-1 with a BB. He's hitting .287 since his promotion from low A ball.



St. Lucie is down 7-4 in the 7th. Leadoff hitter Omar De Los Santos is 1-2 with a double and two stolen bases, giving him 55 SB on the season.



Back to this game.

Later

Anderson is throwing like Rudy Stein out there.

[Edgy MD]

And yet, McNeil swinging at poop.

[Frayed Knot]

Over 1-1/2 hours to get through 3 innings.

The game is ugly, but at least it's long.

Guillorme's second boner of the game.

[seawolf17]

The hell was that crazy editing on SNY after the Pete near-beaning?

[Edgy MD]

Weird shit is what it was. I backed up to watch it again.



Anderson has been a mess. No way the Mets should allow him to get out of here with a win.

[seawolf17]

I feel like the home plate ump has been all over the place on balls and strikes tonight.

[Frayed Knot]

Not that it would flip the results to date, but it doesn't help that we're leaving runs out there almost every inning.





oe: as if on cue, they cash one in and end Anderson's night.

[Edgy MD]

Well, knocking out Anderson is a step. Nice job, McNougat.

[seawolf17]

One at a time, fellas. One at a time.

[kcmets]

I was gonna check out, but I have a feeling the 2022 Mets

are about to return and make this a ballgame.

[seawolf17]

Welcome to NYC, Darin Ruf!

Ruf boy, I want to bite and kiss you
