Who pitches who pitches who pitches who pitches the bottom of the eighth?

[Marshmallowmilkshake]

Pouring it on!



I've been at a work event and sneaking peeks at the phone.

[Centerfield]

He's going with Maton.



I ask you. If you don't bring in the lefty to face Schwarber and Harper, why even carry him?

[Lefty Specialist]

8th and 9th inning Mets are fun Mets.

[Benjamin Grimm]

He had Maton up for the twi-run lead, but yeah, he should switch to a lefty now.

[Batty31]

Aren't you all glad now I shut the game off!

[Centerfield]

GREAT CALL BLUE!!!!

[Edgy MD]

Let us take a moment to recall that no small part of what kept that inning alive was Lindor somehow hitting a ball that bounced in front of the plate.

[Edgy MD]

Also please do yourself a favor and listen to how totally out of this game the crowd is.

Whew. 3 outs to get.

[ashie62]

Maton pulls it out



He's not my favorite reliever but he got it done

[Centerfield]

Phew.

[Frayed Knot]

And so it's AT LEAST a four run lead in bottom 9th facing 6-7-8 in the Philly lineup.

[Centerfield]

I wonder if Diaz is not available. Let's score 8 just in case.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Hopefully they can avoid using Diaz.

[Cowtipper]

This is fun.

[Edgy MD]

Hopefully a 6-1 lead sits Diaz down.

[Marshmallowmilkshake]

Another four or five runs and you can almost think about bringing Ottavino in for the ninth!

Let's get some smokin' hot Ottavino action NOW!!!!

[whippoorwill]

I don't see why that call at second was changed

[Edgy MD]

Better yet, STANEK ME!!!!

[Centerfield]

Let's go Stanek.

[Lefty Specialist]

He bobbled the ball on the tag.



And Stanek on for the 9th. Let's go Metsies.

[whippoorwill]

No he just bobbled it a little. Looked to me like it landed back in his glove
