It's 1973 All Over Again IGT — NYM@OAK, 4/14/2023

[Fman99]

Good to see someone on this team finally capitalize on an opportunity with runners on base, especially after McNeil farted one away in the first inning

My herniated discs are calling me to bed



LGM all

I would be SHOCKED!! if MLB was completely devoid of cigarette smokers.

Fewer than in the past? Shit yeah. But none ... out of 800 some players? No way.

The NO FUN POLICE (stadium security) are taking away Mets Fans "Ghost Fork" signs. fuck that. Steve Cohen should ban all A's gear from Citi Field... oh wait, the A's don't have any fans anyway!

[Edgy MD]

McNeil has to get in the act here. Even Nido has reached base and scored.

And now those 2 RISP seem even more important.

Jeff doesn't seem right. It's as if his leaving the Mets to sit on the bench for two weeks for another team wasn't a good idea.

[crossout]Nine[/crossout] Ten walks, three to Guillorme.

[Frayed Knot]

This is not exactly a scintillating game.

[Edgy MD]

I bet packing seven ribbies onto his total is pretty scintillating for Lindor.

[Frayed Knot]

The bad news is that, despite all the baserunners, we've notched just two hits w/RiSP

The good is that those two have resulted in 7 runs

[The Hot Corner]

Wow, Hogan Harris just had about as bad MLB debut as possible. His MLB dream just turned into a nightmare.

[batmagadanleadoff]

If Vogelbach didn't beat out that throw to first to thwart the potential double play, he would've made all three outs in the inning.

[Edgy MD]

Maybe, but he still gets to go bed with the name "Hogan Harris," which is pretty cool.



Daniel Vogelbach just beat out a doubleplay grounder for an RBI. This game has everything.

[Edgy MD]

The Mets individual record for RBI in a game is nine by Carlos Delgado. Lindor is two short of that.



I'm not sure what their team record is for walks in a game, but it looks like a night we might find out.

[Edgy MD]

I miss the days of longer benches where you could pull a good chunk of your lineup in a game like this.

[G-Fafif]

"Jay-oo-reese. Jay-oo-reese."



Mystery solved.

It seems almost strange not to see anyone off the bench in a blowout here - No Alvarez? No LoCastro?

[nymr83]

Familia: 4 earned runs, 0 hits. oof.

[nymr83]

We have a 17th walk and a LoCastro sighting!

[G-Fafif]

Unicorn Score: First 17-6 win in Mets history.

[Fman99]

Nice that they held the Raiders to two field goals in this one

[kcmets]

Watching on Mets Fast Forward NOW!!!



Patch even uglier on road greys. Just sayin'.

I think the game took over three hours even in 'Fast Forward' mode.

[ashie62]

Nice result to wake up to



They really took down ghost fork signs? Geez

Same here. Highly condensed fun. I don't think I could have watched 17 walks in real time.

Caption This!!

Senga had the good sense to pick a good night to have his worst stateside outing to date.

[Edgy MD]

Between not getting the picture and a massive storm here in Baltimore, I bailed at 12-6. Good for the Mets for taking their pitches, but they probably didn't need me staying up late listening to it.
