The Mets are undefeated on Channel Nine for ... it feels like decades!

All four whiz kids are in the lineup together. Do something big!

Channel nine tonight, and one of dem darn apple games tomorrow.



The whole metsuniverse is spinning out of control.

I've been usurped

Difficult not impossible day two

This Channel 9 thing has me thinking about when Bob Murphy hosted Bowling for Dollars. I tried to find a video clip, but came up empty.

Bowling for Dollars!

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

This is exciting

[Edgy MD]

Wearing retro road jerseys at home is silly vanilli.

[ashie62]

Too much to expect Peterson to be unscathed in Philly tonight

[ashie62]

Fox is a real turnoff for me here

[Edgy MD]

We've go so long without playing division opponents this year that I had forgotten what a bandbox this place is.



TIE GAME!!

[G-Fafif]

Game on WCBS, per usual despite game notes indicating otherwise.

[Edgy MD]

This broadcast team seems to think this is the Phillies' show and the Mets are extras.

[Edgy MD]

Peterson is making some good pitches, but he's not using the inside part of the plate.

[Fman99]

Hate the Fox broadcasters. And the Phillies and their mouth breathing fans. But I do love those powder blue throwback jerseys. That's some vintage 1983 right there

[Frayed Knot]

Cuz chick's dig the stand up triple.



More surprising is that they quickly plated the run instead of resorting to 3 Ks/pop outs

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Well Vientos is having a nice week

Yeah enjoying watching him hit of late

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Dr Hartwig on call

[Frayed Knot]

If Nimmo slides into 2nd there he might be called safe on replay review.

[Frayed Knot]

NYM batters choose not to participate in that whole hard-hit ball thing.

[Edgy MD]

Do it again, Mark.

[Edgy MD]

Harper at first feels goofy.

[Edgy MD]

He also looks kinda goofy, wearing his hat balanced on top of his head.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

I was thinking the same thing
