IGT - 5.16.24 - The "Why is this not a Day Game?" Game

[Frayed Knot]

Has anyone made contact against a Philly reliever yet?

We shouldn't have messed with Taijuan's toe.

[Edgy MD]

Stewart has.



And for his trouble, he gets pinch-run for with two out in the sixth.

[Frayed Knot]

Taylor misses the cutoff man, just as Bader did last night.

[Centerfield]

Stupid throw.

[Centerfield]

And it ends up costing us a run.

[Edgy MD]

Somebody told these Phils to come out hacking against Garrett.



It's good to hear Ron taking Taylor to task. If you're going to be a defensive replacement, you'd better have a defensive plan.

[Frayed Knot]

NYM ABs vs the Philly pen since T. Walker left the game w/one out/one on:

FC, IF PO

K, IF PO, K

K, K, 1B, K

LO-5, GO-3, Foul PO 5



1 for 12, 5 fair balls hit, 5 Ks, one ball left the IF (on the ground)

[Centerfield]

Bad throw costs us a run.



Walk leads to another one. Anemic offense.



It's the same thing every night.

[Frayed Knot]

Waited until the 7th to walk their first batter tonight.

Didn't wait, however, to get him across the plate.

[kcmets]

They're gonna lose. You can just sense it.



Maybe after getting swept by the Fishsticks over the weekend some

alarms will go off and changes made.



SQ = eh

[Frayed Knot]

I really wish getting runners on made me more confident of scoring a run or two or three.

But it has the opposite effect.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

That was a pretty cool play

[Frayed Knot]

We hand it to them ... and they're handing it right back.

It's last night's game in reverse.

Wow

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Sorta the opposite of Monday's game

[Frayed Knot]

Two 3-1 putouts that inning which is nice considering we've messed up our share of those lately.

[Edgy MD]

Good point about Monday's game flipped over.



Hoffman threw nothing but garbage. Good moving slider but his control was all over the place. The Mets chased and chased and chased, but he finally got too wild even for that and he bounced them back into the lead.



My little Mister Met Plush Toy here is yelling, "Don't swing!!!"

[Edgy MD]

Vientos shows we can chase against Ruíz, too.

[Edgy MD]

McNeil concurs on that subject.

[Edgy MD]

With two lefties to open the ninth (On edit: THREE! FOUR!!), I'd be tempted to start the inning with Diekman.



Also, Nido for defense?

[MFS62]

Is it time for a trumpet-worthy performance, or just a kazoo?

Later

[Frayed Knot]

And so it begins.

[Frayed Knot]

Eh, keeping the GiDP in play wasn't important anyway.

[metirish]

Bleh , pathetic

[Frayed Knot]

Eh, keeping the GiDP in play wasn't important anyway.

[Frayed Knot]

Clown Car rules time.

[kcmets]

On to ghost-runner innings. Yay...

[Frayed Knot]

Game over!
