Quality wallop by Bader.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

I had to google "Todd from Breaking Bad" and I'm certain that I've seen every single BB episode at least half a dozen times. Boy did I love that show. I'm getting old.

We just finished a start to end re-watch. Glad we did it, experiencing it week to week on cable TV wasn't ideal since we didn't see everything.

[MFS62]

Peterson has thrown 42 pitches through 4.

Herz has thrown 74 pitches through 4.



I would have thought that with a name like Her(t)z he'd have electric stuff.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I just figured he'd be better than a guy named Avis.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Todd might have been the most depraved of all BB characters. Kid killer, cop-killer, slave keeper, nazi or nazi sympathizer. But he had a soft spot for Lydia

He had a soft spot for Walter White, too. But that dude was one stone-cold heartless monster.

[kcmets]

Triples are fun!

[Cowtipper]

I second that.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Yeah Walt was the worst. Just how bad he was was more difficult for me to pick up till this last rewatch

Yeah, but I was agreeing with you about Todd/Plemons being the stone-cold psychopath.

[Edgy MD]

We may have to do a Jesse Plemons/Breaking Bad split.

Mark Vientos, Mets representative to the all star game.



Stranger things have happened

[Frayed Knot]

Good thing that none of these failed tack-on run situations have come back to bite us recently.

[Frayed Knot]

Couple of fortunate hits to lead off the 8th.

Now we'll see how good they are at stranding them.

[Edgy MD]

We're running out of time for McNeedles to blow up this game off the bench.



They need a lefty bat for an RBI here and ... they go to DJ Stewart. Booooo!

[Frayed Knot]

PH'ing DJ Stewart for Nido [1st & 3rd / one out] cuz we all know a three run lead just doesn't cut it.

[Edgy MD]

And being a much better bet for a strikeout than McNeil, and a much better bet for a double-play, they nonetheless go to him, and he hits into an inning-ending double-play.

[MFS62]

Gee, McNeil could have done that.

They showed us.

That Pete call on the pop up was so loud I heard it ... and not through my TV!!

[Edgy MD]

So, who do you see getting the ninth tonight?. Reid-Foley?



I think I'm leaning that way, but Mendoza's thoughts are a mystery to me.

[Edgy MD]

Looks like he's looking to go back to Reed Garrett.

[Frayed Knot]

Long HR from Pete to make it 6-2

Our win pct just nudged over 55%

[Edgy MD]

The opponent throwing up and in to Pete Alonso may be what we needed.

[MFS62]

If you think you could have predicted it, raise your hand.

And so it begins.

[Edgy MD]

Garrett walking the leadoff hitter = NOT what I needed.

[MFS62]

The next two batters are hitting .200 and .160. Based on what has been happening lately, that sounds dangerous.
