IGT 09/17 - Nationals @ Mets

[Frayed Knot]

Braves fail to score in top 8

[Benjamin Grimm]

I think [bIGPURPLE]Spencer Steer[/bIGPURPLE] deserves some big purple.

[Cowtipper]

I forgot about Brazoban.

So that Alvarez doesn't have to get one of those.

[Cowtipper]

Diamondbacks are losing 3-0.

[Edgy MD]

So, Torrens was going to be yesterday's emergency secondbaseman. Is Iglesias tonight's emergency catcher?

[Cowtipper]

Going into the top of the ninth in Cincinnati. Shut 'em down, Cincy!

Acc to Gary, the other Alvarez would next in line to don the tools of ignorance.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I just switched to the Braves Reds game to watch the top of the ninth.

[Cowtipper]

One out in Cincy.

[Benjamin Grimm]

It's nice to be rooting for Edwin's brother.



Nice catch of a foul ball for the first out.

[Frayed Knot]

7 - 8 -9 for the Braves vs that other Diaz brother.



And Whit Merrifield fouls out to RF - one out



A PH appearance by Jerred Kelenic

[Cowtipper]

Acuna's a future superstar! This kid, wowza!

[Edgy MD]

Good God!! We've got the best Acuña!!!

[Frayed Knot]

Kelenic K's!!

[Cowtipper]

Two outs in Cincy!!!!1

[Frayed Knot]

Orlando Arcia for the game.

Paul Lynde for the block.

[Frayed Knot]

Base hit Arcia.

Michael Harris II coming up.

PR in at first as the tying run.

[Frayed Knot]

Stolen base so the tying run in scoring position, 3-1 count

[Cowtipper]

Braves down to their last strike!

[Cowtipper]

Steeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-rike three!



Braves looz!

[Frayed Knot]

3 - 2 ... annnnnnnnd, HE STRUCK HIM OUT!!!

[Cowtipper]

Once the Mets win, the magic number to lock up that last Wild Card spot will be down to 10!

Kelenic!!! As if this evening hadn't already been broadly breaking right, we even grab a tiny point on the Robinson Canó trade scorecard.



Everything is coming up Millhouse!!!

I mean he's merely 164 HRs and one MVP behind but ... sure, why not.

[whippoorwill]

Now THIS is a good IGT

[Cowtipper]

Mets win.



Magic number officially 10.



11 games left.



Could theoretically be a 94-win team.

[metirish]

The luck of the Irish , I won't be starting the IGT tomorrow, tradition be damned

[Gwreck]

Colorado expands the lead on Arizona, up 5-1 now, end 6.
