IGT, 2024-04-16 PIT@NYM, Love You Till Tuesday

[Edgy MD]

The Pirates return for more abuse before screaming and unbridled fanaticism of the denizens of the Tuesday Night Mets Club. Lefty José Quintana goes for the Mets against an as-yet-unnamed starter for the Pirates.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

We'll be in 424. This TNMC is a special rain-check game from last season.

[metirish]

FYI , sounds cool

[kcmets]

That's some fun DVRng news!

[Edgy MD]

The previously un-named Pirate stater will be young righthander Jared Jones, a second-round pick from 2020 who has struck out 25 and walked only two thus far in his 18-inning rookie campaign.

1-1, 3.45 ERA, 12 SO

[Edgy MD]

A swing-and-miss pitcher, and a catcher who has demonstrated a capacity to sleep on the job.



Bunt a little. Steal a little. Make a little contact. Make a little havoc.



Win a little game. Give me your heart and I'll love you till Tuesday.

Tough series if your name is Connor Joe.

[Frayed Knot]

Where were you throwing, why did you slow?

What were you thinking Connor Wy Joe?







His real middle name is Kok-Wy but I shortened it to make the verse scan better

Much better series if your name is Harrison Bader.

[Edgy MD]

It's probably a good thing that the Pirates got a hit here in the third. It would have been a mess if the Mets got a no-hitter after Joe wiped Reynolds first-inning hit off the board.

[Edgy MD]

Probably a better thing that McNeil turned that double-play.

[ashie62]

Jared Jones was drafted out of high school in 2020



That's a fairly quick ascent to MLB

This kid throwing for Pittsburgh has some filthy stuff

[Fman99]

Another great sideline interview, today with Jack Fisher, who will throw out tomorrow's first pitch to commemorate 60 years since Shea opened.



I should sound so together at age 85.

[Edgy MD]

Jack Fisher looking good.

[ashie62]

Quintana has gotten a lot of outs without his plus stuff



Jack Fisher Jerry Buchek are the first of my Mets memories

[ashie62]

The pulling of Jared Jones could be the best thing that could happen to the Mets tonight

[Fman99]

Garrett making Bucs look goofy out there

Baty lifted for reasons not yet known to GKR

[Fman99]

Challenge rules are stupid, part 93. Mets cannot challenge the fact that the runner was clearly on the grass and illegally making his way up the line

[Edgy MD]

I cursed this game by posting a vid of the third-rate Bowie song that gives the thread it's name.



This here is about atonement.

And Blondie gets us in business here in the bottom of the seventh.



Unfortunately, Jimmy Destri is out with hamstring tightness.

[Cowtipper]

Finally something is cooking.

[Cowtipper]

This is the first time I've actually witnessed Wendle do anything.

[Edgy MD]

Joey Wendle on keyboards!!

[Fman99]

Yeah Joey Wendle

[Marshmallowmilkshake]

Wendle!!



Whoever had Reed Garrett as their Dark Horse Met knew what they were doing!
