IGT, 9/14, ARI@NYM, The Stoins Train Rolls On!

[Edgy MD]

As the Arizona Diamondbacks were fighting to edge ahead of the pack in the playoff hunt, manager Torey Lovullo assured his team that they were facing a second-division club from the East. Little did he know that the Mets would be pulling a fast one, using two players who spent most of their seasons in the International League.



But that's who the Diamondbacks faced, and they quickly found there was little they could do with José Butto's change or Joey Lucchesi's churve. Can a fulltime Met do as well with his ghost fork? Kodai Senga seeks to answer that question tonight!

Nice job in centerfield yesterday, McCarthy. Now take a seat.

Hey, full booth! Ronnie's back!

[ashie62]

And they're off

[Edgy MD]

Looks like the shadows are harder on the ump than on the hitters. That called strike three on Walker was kind of atrocious.

[ashie62]

I'm having trouble watching at home so I get it

[Edgy MD]

The word is "du-PLI-ca-tive," Gary, not "DU-pli-ca-tive.

Invasion of the walking Mets

[Edgy MD]

Gary questioning the d'Backs holding Vogelbach.



https://awfulannouncing.com/local-networks/gary-cohen-sny-diamondbacks-steal.htmlHe got some shit in the last day or two for questioning them not holding Locastro in the ninth inning of Game One.

[Edgy MD]

Wow, how does Ortega not score on that double rolling lazily into the corner?

[ashie62]

Nimmo looks gimpy

[kcmets]

Yeah, it looked like putting on the brakes rounding second

was a little uncomfortable or something.

[ashie62]

They got Pham out

[Edgy MD]

I was walking the dog. Anything happen?

[ashie62]

I would be shocked if Corbin Carroll did not get roy

[ashie62]

Runs agogo



7-0 Mets

[Edgy MD]

Senga may somehow be closer to the Cy Young than the Rookie of the Year Award, which kinda says something, though I'm not sure what.

Time to stretch!

[Edgy MD]

Álvarez dubllin' can be more gratifying than him homerin'.



The homerun power will come. I just don't want him to turn into a .215-hitting power hitter.

[Edgy MD]

Mets making no defensive changes in the eighth.

[Edgy MD]

September strike zone.

[Edgy MD]

Pinch-hit greatness from Jonathan!



Somebody's in no hurry to vacate his roster spot for Guillorme.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Arauz piles on, catcher coming on to pitch.



These playoff contenders don't look so impressive to me.

[Edgy MD]

Alonso giving a gift to the position player-pitcher by swinging at the very worst possible pitch.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

We win a series.

Is that good? I get confused what the forum consensus is

and/or what the cool kids think.
