Atlanta announcers talking about the Braves being destined to win on Hank Aaron night reminds me a bit of Francesa declaring

that there was no way the Yanx would lose to the Sawx on Mickey Mantle's birthday. That was Game 7 ALCS 2004

I'm not sure easy wins over the Braves are going to be in stock in the near future. I'll take a stressful win.



With a fill-in starter signed out of limbo and the back half of the bullpen, coming from behind twice against the class of the division, it really feels like a steal.



Maybe this year the bullpen won't last for the Braves.

Well, nothing's supposed to come easy.

Especially when facing a top team with a fill-in starter, a depleted bullpen, and falling into an early 0-4 deficit.

Tonight was like Win-Win-Win territory if you ask me.

Time of Game = 3:27

Not sure if that's the longest 9-inning game this season, but it probably is.

There were Eight 9-inning games last season that ran north of 3:30

In 2017 there were 258 such games representing 11.5% of all games or about 1 game in 9

At no point did I think the Mets would survive this game.



Baseball is crazy.



Hey. Let's never pitch Lopez again.

Yah I was done when it was still 4-4 there was no chance I was getting through the last half of this one. I'd have died on each of those long fly balls in the bottom of the 9th, too, had I been awake.

Missed this one. Wins a win by the sounds of it. Against Atlanta, I'll take a win anyway it comes.

Interesting tactic. Live middle middle and hope for warning track outs.
