IGT — NYM@LAD, 4/18/2023, 2015 Redux

[Edgy MD]

The Mets might have fallen to the Dodgers in the 1988 post-season, but they beat the Los Angelinos down on the way to the 2015 pennant. And if history has any meaning, that's the history we can draw from as we witness the matchup of the National League's only pitcher to win his first three starts against Clayton Kershaw, who still sees images of Daniel Murphy whenever he closes his eyes.

Be interesting to see if they start Baty against the lefty.

[Lefty Specialist]

Wow, that lineup looks very un-Dodgerish.



Good to get Nimmo a DH day after his two bellyflops last night.



Taping Mets FF tomorrow morning so nobody tell me the score before then.

[G-Fafif]

Chronologically, the 2006 Mets swept the 2006 Dodgers between 1988 and 2015.

[metirish]

Hopefully I wake up to another win #LGM

[Edgy MD]

Man, who is that wearing Jason Heyward's glove?

[Edgy MD]

Steal home, Nimmo.

[Edgy MD]

Way too many straight pitches to J.D. Martinez.

[Edgy MD]

Outman is a tough name for a rookie slugger.

[Edgy MD]

That inning had something for everybody. Mets lucky to get out of it with one run only scored



But a three-run hole to Kershaw, smelling his 200th win, is a ... tough hole to be in..

[Edgy MD]

Lindor gets the Mets in the hit column in the fourth.

[Edgy MD]

The Pham-in-center decision is kinda biting the Mets tonight.

[Edgy MD]

Megill is overthrowing and seemingly at the end of his rope.

[Edgy MD]

Megill got out of that with almost nothing working for him.



I'm so alone.

I'm here, just totally uninspired by the Mets tonight

[Edgy MD]

Well, you can be inspired by the seventh-inning Mets, who have really ground out their at-bats, with Canha grinding out a 13-pitch single before McNeil follows quickly with a tingle of his own. TYING RUN AT THE PLATE!

[Edgy MD]

Wow, Kershaw should totally turn pro.

[Edgy MD]

The story tonight is certainly Kershaw, but the Mets could have come out cleaner and tighter.

[Edgy MD]

Oh, well. I got to pilot five IGT wins. I cede to Kershaw.

[Fman99]

I'm glad this one was played at an absurd hour and that I witnessed none of it in real time. Probably for the best.

[Lefty Specialist]

Fast forwarded thru Fast Forward. Not their night.

[MFS62]

Somebody should have tried to convince Kershaw this was a playoff game. He's 13-12 4.22 in those games.
