IGT 7/2 Mets @ Nats Time to Strut

[Cowtipper]

John Gibbons would be a better manager than Mendoza. Look at Gibbons in that dugout. Just the way he stands demands respect.

[Cowtipper]

Wood's head looks like one of those Play-Doh extruders.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Lookin shabby out thrre

[Edgy MD]

The scorer finally credited the Mets with an error instead of an infield hit.

[Frayed Knot]

Now six grounders not turned into outs.

Four IF hits not turned plus two errors!!

They still do that on the radio 📻 ⚾️ 🎤

[kcmets]

More ghost-runner bullshit coming...

[Cowtipper]

Butto is a good pitcher.

[Frayed Knot]

Tied after nine, so baseball rules end and some other games' rules take over.

[Edgy MD]

I'm going to open a bunting boot camp.

No one will attend.

[Frayed Knot]

If only Lindor could have hit it to Lindor then Lindor would have been safe.

[Edgy MD]

What a game for Harry Potter!

[Frayed Knot]

I kind of missed the start of this whole OMG thing.

Are other elements of the Periodic Table going to be featured also or are Oxygen and Magnesium going to hog all the attention?

[Frayed Knot]

I'm surprised the Nats didn't challenge the Gamel slide.

That's one where micro-analysis might have shown him to be out.

Tack on, tack on and let's tack on some more....

NYM 'Win %' now up to 61%

i think it's a song.

Why not let Butto pitch a third inning and save some bullpen arms?

He's been a starter and the extra inning shouldn't be a problem.

Later

[Frayed Knot]

Not sure.





First eleven extra inning games/16 innings = 9 runs scored

Last two extra inning games/2 innings = 11 runs scored



Ya just neverknow.

You open up your camp and I'll open up mine.

[Lefty Specialist]

Boy, let's play extra innings every day. Last two games they scored 5 runs in regulation and 11 runs in the 10th.

[kcmets]

Shame it's fake extra innings, but I'm still so happy and peed...

[Edgy MD]

Texas up 7–0 on the Pads in the eighth. If the Rangers close that one out, then the Mets pull back within a game of the Wild Card.

[Fman99]

Missed it all for a good reason (attending a Syracuse Mets game in which they lost 16-4 but we got to see a position player pitch and some fireworks)

[Centerfield]

Hey. Did you guys see bmfc1 sitting behind the plate?

[ashie62]

Keep the IGT mojo going

[Lefty Specialist]

14-4 in the Grimace Era.

My point being that few if any ML'ers are even remotely interested in learning how to bunt.

They should be, but they're not.

[Edgy MD]

Indeed. I'm just really committed to offering my self up to potential humiliation and ruin in a quixotic gesture for a righteous cause.
