And then stranded the second runner by spending the next three ABs not getting the ball past the pitcher's mound.

[Frayed Knot]

Pick-offs should be counted the same as caught steals.

Cuz Acuna is killing his team's run scoring chances tonight.

[Frayed Knot]

Y'know what we didn't need there Otto ... a freakin' leadoff walk!!

To a player the Mets cut. And they've walked him twice! And he's scored twice!

Dammit

They said "here comes Ozuna" and my face crunkled right up

Makes me want to puke. Of course it wouldn't matter if the Mets could score at all.

Riley leaves the game early so we use that break to award his replacement 1st base twice.



As mentioned in yesterday's IGT, I wonder if closer Rasiel Iglesias is available. 23 & 25 pitches the last two games.

That's 3-1/2 innings worth of pitches in two innings over two days.

His .063-hitting replacement.

[Frayed Knot]

Yeah, it's not like you go up there thinking he's going to hurt you by pitching to him.

[Frayed Knot]

I don't really want to claim this as a 'moral victory' simply because we didn't fall behind early with little chance to catch up.

Let's win this fucker!!

[metirish]

What's up with the sound?

[Edgy MD]

Bunt singles are the answer.

[Frayed Knot]

Clap! Clap! Clap!

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

McNeil doing what needed to be done. He doesn't look like he's even close to heating up as a hitter

[Edgy MD]

But don't sacrifice with the corners closing. Hit it down their throats.

Wow

[Frayed Knot]

Best win of the year? Yeah, I think so.

Maybe tied with the Vientos game.

[Edgy MD]

If this game breaks the other way, Mendoza would have some answering to do for burning the bench and having an injured Nimmo up with the game on the line.



But how about that?

[Edgy MD]

His voice sounds like he's been screaming all night.

[The Hot Corner]

I think it was the uniforms. The Mets need to wear the classic pinstripes more often.



Great win!

[Fman99]

All's well that ends well

[Frayed Knot]

So 3-3 vs the Braves this year to date. And 2-1 vs the Dodgers.

Not bad, but some better records against lesser opponents would help.

[Edgy MD]

Got six big games coming up against an MLB-best Phillies squad, followed by a pair against the Marlins, currently with the worst record.

[Cowtipper]

I slept through the game :-(
