First things first, and that's scoring the go-ahead run. Pow.

Gary has been mis-reading a lot of deep flies lately, and I'm glad he was wrong about that one.



Fo' to one!

[Frayed Knot]

Mets score multiple runs after getting the anti-leadoff batter on.

Nope!

[Bob Alpacadaca]

Lindor is amazing.

[Edgy MD]

Yes he is. And it's like he's getting better as the season goes on.



That's a 1-2-3 inning for Tylor. All the balls were hit hard, but fortunately one was hit right at Vientos, and two were within the vicinity of Lindor, so, piece of cake.



Throwing strikes sometimes works out.

[Edgy MD]

Bagheads are the worst.

[kcmets]

Bagheads where you can see the guy's whole face?



That's not bagheadin'...

[Centerfield]

Like I was saying. Megill consistently solid.

[kcmets]

Megilll not suckin' so much striking out the side in the fifth.

[kcmets]

Hah, you beat me...

[Centerfield]

Come on guys. Don't get complacent. Tack on.

Bader is killing this team

[Fman99]

Watching an illegal stream and casting it to my TV in a format best described as "piss poor." Because WPIX, because fuck the out of town fans.

[Gwreck]

At least Bader is rightfully losing playing time with Winker and Marte around.



Agree that Alvarez is really bad lately.

[Edgy MD]

Otto suddenly defending a lead in the late innings again.

[Edgy MD]

Bagheads where you can see the guy's whole face? That's not bagheadin'...

What's killing me is that he's sitting next to perhaps the loveliest young woman in Chicago, and she's got a sad face on because the Sox are losing, and instead of paying attention to her, he's ignoring her and acting all, "Hey, look at me being the worst cliche of a sports dork!"



Priorities, man.

[Fman99]

On my TV they're just blurry idiots rooting for a loser

You don't get analysis like this anywhere else. Exactly right Edge.

[Edgy MD]

Looks like they're trying to get four innings out of four guys tonight.



I don't like hoping that four different guys have it. I guess Stanek is next. He hasn't appeared in a week.

[Edgy MD]

How did Benintendi quit on that duck snort broken-bat hit? Dive, man.

I have a screen shot of him sluggin' a beer. We can use this later

in the series for mocking purposes if mocking is warranted...

[kcmets]

Alvarez with the nearly warning track power!!

[Edgy MD]

Did you see Vientos caught that popup and mimed falling into the net like Taylor?

[Edgy MD]

Gosh, Robert got off a weak throw, but as least he got rid of it slowly.

[Centerfield]

Ok. Not Diaz. Right?

[kcmets]

Diaz -- 1, 2, 3....



I'm so happy I could pee!!!

[The Hot Corner]

Why Diaz now. This is his fourth straight game over a 5 days span. If Stanek or Young can't be trusted to get 3 outs against the worst hitting team in MLB, then when can they be used? Are they hoping that Diaz will work through his problems and gain confidence? I don't quite get it.
