I shoulda worked from home today but goddamn I can't wait to get home and watch the last couple innings of that

Various TV and radio calls on the Lindor HR, and for some reason Chris Russo too

Glorious audio montage, though “are you kidding me?” needs to be retired by everybody.

It's impressive how few of those calls treated the ball as looking like a homer off the bat. Most of the announcers treat it like a likely out right up until the time Taylor jumps on the wall. Keith seemed far more convinced that it was going than Gary did.

I think Ron recognizes first.

I believe i have voted in every game ,something i set out to do ,thanks for all the effort and time this takes BG

[Benjamin Grimm]

Thank you, but as I've said many times, I have this so automated that it takes probably less than 15 minutes per month. It feels like stolen valor when someone thanks me for my time and effort. But it's appreciated nonetheless.

Can anyone identify the two players pictured in this photo?

Alvarez and Reid-Foley ?

[Edgy MD]

In another lifetime, somebody shared some research that concluded that Ron Hodges had the biggest regular season hit — in fact, the biggest regular-season play, offensively or defensively — in Mets history, in terms of advancing the team's pennant chances.



Does Lindor's ninth-inning homer in this game surpass that, or does the expanded playoff field almost make it impossible to surpass?
