With the Mets and Pirates now separated by just half a game in the standings, today's game is the battle for the ninth best record in the NL. With tremendous playoff implications!



What a stupid shitshow.

[batmagadanleadoff]

The most HR's the Pirates ever hit in a single game was seven. You'd figure ol' Ralph Kiner must've hit one of those seven. Or if not Kiner, then surely Willie Stargell or Dave Parker. But no. The Pirates set that record yesterday against these Mets.

I wish I could find a direct quote, but I'll have to wing it -

"thasa baseball!"

Bailey Falter Quarters

[kcmets]

Second and third with no out in the first.



Ya just knew they'd strand 'em.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

That was a pretty shitty inning 😕

[Edgy MD]

Peterson has recorded the first out without giving up a homer.

[ashie62]

7 batters 4 hits



No runs



Tyrod crushed that ball

[kcmets]

Not so amusing E-1, I think it's gonna be one of those days...

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Who can fail to execute less

[Edgy MD]

Falter has been tapdancing on a landmine this whole game, but he's pitching a shutout.



Loaded for Alonso now. Dear me, Mets — capitalize.

[Edgy MD]

Do it for the married couple, Mets.

[kcmets]

Falter lifted, no freakin' idea what is going on haha...

[Edgy MD]

With 2-0 and the bags loaded, he swings at ball three.

[Edgy MD]

And he swings at ball five, too.

[Edgy MD]

At least Alonso saw one strike. Vientos chased everything.

[Edgy MD]

Thank goodness for the mighty Luís Torrens.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

I have a bad case of Torrens Syndrome

[Benjamin Grimm]

RBIs are better than LOBs.

[metirish]

Wow ,let's go

Luís Torrens, Professional Hitter

Torrens asking if we ever predicted a Dark Horse Met for 2024. If not, he submits himself as a nominee.

[metirish]

Gary is talking about Ron and Kevin Elster as a great pick-off tandem , what ever happened to Elster that was a member here ?

Thanks, Ben



Anyway, we have a game here

[MFS62]

That guy with two last names hit one out.

The score is now 3-2, Mets.

Later

[kcmets]

Alonso not exactly looking like he wants to make Boras wealthier.
