I'm not sure if this is the night Mauricio gets five hits or the night Lucchesi throws a complete-game shutout.

[Frayed Knot]

Top 1: 2nd & 3rd, Noone out, middle of the order up ... and no one gets a ball out of the infield



Top 2: leadoff single ... and the next three fail to get a ball out of the infield



I've typed some version of the above many times this season.

[Edgy MD]

There's an out by Mauricio.



I guess it's the shutout.

[Edgy MD]

Alonso only kept from oversliding on that double because he wasn't wearing the oven mitt.

[Edgy MD]

Marlins are pressing. That's a Met advantage, and it's given them a run.

[Frayed Knot]

So what happens if Alvarez swings at that (non) pitch??

[Frayed Knot]

Top 3: even the AB which brings in a run doesn't leave the infield

[Edgy MD]

A pair of two-out doubles ends the shutout.



That puts the five-hit game back in play.

[Edgy MD]

Oh, Lucchesi!!

[Frayed Knot]

Been a long time since pfp in spring training obviously ... for both sides.

[Frayed Knot]

This team suxx at scoring runs.

That's a bad recipe for success, right?

[Frayed Knot]

The other team knows how to get the ball beyond the infield with runners on base.

[Edgy MD]

-ish.



I mean, if the way to get the ball past the infield is to bunt it and let the pitcher throw it into the outfield, then yeah. Although the Mets pulled something like the same trick.

[kcmets]

Last ditch effort... Let's Go Mets!!

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Big rally here

[Edgy MD]

Pinch-run for Vientos!

[Edgy MD]

Pinch-run for D.J. ... with Guillorme?

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Zummoooooooo

[Edgy MD]

BEAUTY!!!

[metirish]

Yeeees

[kcmets]

Nimm sez ain't nothing but a thing!

[Frayed Knot]

FINALLY!!!!



The inning was shaping up as yet another case of infield dribbler, infield dribbler, and infield dribbler.

Let's Go Mets! Ribeye dubs by Nimmo to tie up this game on the Mets last up

[Edgy MD]

Pretty impressive that the Mets pulled off that rally despite two really impressive defensive plays by Miami.

[Edgy MD]

Gott.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Gott damn.

[Edgy MD]

Oh-and-two meatball.
