Ello. Now go and get some Bo Peep in your Lord Freds for your bottles and glasses and Bristols, my china plates. And don't give me no Eartha Kitt, mates. This one's a Liz Hurley.

I 'ope 'he me's win 'oday, bu' knowin 'hem, 'hey'll probably blah i' an' embarrass 'hemselves on 'he in'erna'ional stage.

[Edgy MD]

McNeil!!

[Lefty Specialist]

Ha! They're booing Mr & Mrs Met and giving a thunderous ovation to the Phanatic.

[ashie62]

It is frustrating that there is a daily struggle to shoehorn either Baty or Vientos into the lineup. Pick one already and get plane tickets for the other



Wouldn't mind seeing Manchester City at this hour

[Lefty Specialist]

Fewer people today and an even more-Philly crowd. Lotta red.

[metirish]

Michael Kay doing the game , this just got worse



ESPN with a stupid narrated intro

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

What a disappointment

[kcmets]

Why do I have this sinking feeling that Taijuan is going to ride

into at least the seventh inning with a no-no going?

[Edgy MD]

Taijuan in 2024 is sort of the soft, tender underbelly of this first-place team. Even as he gets the Mets easily in the first as he just did, he usually folds his cards pretty early in games.



Kinda sorta like Sean Manaea did last inning.

[Edgy MD]

Keith Raad just described Winnie Churchill as "The Prime Minister of London during World War II."



Ralph Kiner lives.

[ashie62]

Michael Kay



No

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Today's gonna suck innit?

[ashie62]

Big jam for Quintana

[kcmets]

I'm muted. Listening to some Buzzcocks records.



(see what I did there?)

[metirish]

Going to Suck balls, Guv

Held Philly to one

[Edgy MD]

Fat, drunk, and watching strike three is no way to go through life, Son.

[Lefty Specialist]

Tajuan not looking soft-underbellyish. Quintana is, though.

[Edgy MD]

I'm following via radio, but the idea of Michael Kay and Chase Utley sounds kind of hilarious.

[Lefty Specialist]

Quintana just sucks. Can't even trade him.

[Gwreck]

Feels like this is the real inflection point of the game here.

[Gwreck]

Also feels like there is a real dearth of Major League quality hitters in this lineup.

[Lefty Specialist]

Also feels like they have one foot on the plane. Lifeless.

[Lefty Specialist]

Pulling Walker after 79 pitches is silly, but I'll take it.
