IGT 7/2 Mets vs Giants 7:10 ESPN Peterson Stripling

[metirish]

Big Pete with a great AB gets the walk to tie it up

[Frayed Knot]

Pete + discipline = run

[ashie62]

The lucky squirrel finds a nut

[metirish]

Wow we catch a break with Jeff's hit up the middle, two score

[ashie62]

Cmon Starfart

[ashie62]

A horrid Michael Rappaport promo

[ashie62]

I can't take much more of this for awhile



LGM!!

[Edgy MD]

Winning with walks is the way to win. Let them beat themselves ... and laugh!

[Edgy MD]

And we escape the inning with the lead intact!

[Frayed Knot]

The last 8 NYM HRs have been solo

E: I see you've had ten baseball broadcasting jobs from AA to MLB.

A: Yes, I've paid my dues.

E: As you climbed up the ladder, did you leave to move on to greener

pastures or were you let go from previous employers?

A: To be honest, I lost my last three jobs because I was told that I

annoyed the (fucking) shit out of listeners with my commentary.

E: Excellent! That's we strive for here at Sunday Night Baseball. Have

your guy contact our gal and we'll work out the contract numbers.

[Frayed Knot]

That hit makes up for at least a couple of 100mph at'em balls from Pham recently.

[Edgy MD]

Matos is fun. He makes great plays and boneheaded plays alternately.

[Frayed Knot]

This Tristan Beck guy, built just a wee bit differently from former SFG hurler Roc Beck

[Edgy MD]

This is the trick. When the enemy can't throw a strike, stop swinging.



You too, Alonso.

[Edgy MD]

Ouch. Early hook-o to Peterson.



Yanking a starter with a lead after four didn't work when they pulled it on Carrasco a week ago.

[Frayed Knot]

Hartwig gets the inning ending strike 3 call by an angry inch.

Any word why?

He threw about 100 pitches in his last start.

Did he get hurt?

Or is this Buck being Buck?

Later

A guy just fell into the field from CF

That 'news' deserves it's own thread, even if only kinda!!

Howie Rose asking if there's ever been a better sports movie than Slapshot.



Not to be disagreeable, but ... yeah. And it starred Jackie Earle Haley.

[bmfc1]

Coming out of the AS break we get a Friday game on Apple+ followed by an exclusive game on FOX. And the Mets are back on Sunday Night v BOS in 3 weeks.

[bmfc1]

"Or is this Buck being Buck?" This.

90% of the fans would have left Peterson in for another inning but Buck once again has to show how smart he is by using everyone in the bullpen the day before a day off. He's always thinking... of tomorrow, not the game they are playing.

[Edgy MD]

The thought of that J.D. Davis trade is stuck in my bowels.

[Frayed Knot]

Need to hold them here as our offense doesn't do runs after the 6th inning.

[Edgy MD]

Hold the Giants, or my bowels?

[Edgy MD]

I'll take soft dubbles from Alonso.

Since June 15 the Mets have scored 7 runs from the 7th inning on. All came in two games and neither changed the result.



On the flip side, over that same span they've allowed 15 runs from the 7th on and four times those RA turned leads into losses.

[Edgy MD]

This has to be the Mets' most Texas Leaguiest game in years.
