NCLS Game 4 10/17/24 IGT Dodgers vs Mets 8:08

[Edgy MD]

I realize it's a bench burn, but I'd pull back Winkie and send Tyrone Taylor up to face Banda.

[Lefty Specialist]

Well, looks like the pixie dust has run out.

[Frayed Knot]

We can't even get our fly outs in the right order.

Let me count the ways.

[Centerfield]

Iglesias killed us there. All momentum lost.



How long can you keep running him out there.

[batmagadanleadoff]

Everybody killed us. Can't get it done with just Vientos hitting.

Mrs Lefty said, "They're playing like it's May again."

[Benjamin Grimm]

I hope they're saving Peterson to start tomorrow.

When it's cold outside, they've got the month of May.

A while ago, I never would have dreamt that the season would come down to hoping Peterson could start.

[Frayed Knot]

Back to the inning ending batter interference on the stolen base attempt, can you imagine a scenario where SNY never shows a replay and has no discussion as to whether it was the proper call or not?

Of course you can't. But FOX cut right to their commercial(s) and never mentioned it again.

[batmagadanleadoff]

Vientos will hit a solo HR to make it 7-3. Yay.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I noticed that too. I at least was able to rewind on my Tivo and watch it again. But yes, Fox dropped the ball there.

[Frayed Knot]

Leadoff batter on, NYM run expectancy trends downward as a result.

[Edgy MD]

Marte is the tying run.

[Edgy MD]

"American Pie" as walkup music is KEEELING me.

Frayed Knot wrote: Another thing about these high walk/multiple pitching change games is the pace of them: two hours in and just barely starting the 6th. Throw in the later start and increased commercial time and I'm going to have a tough time surviving.

So are the Mets.

Alonso having sea bass for dinner, since he's been fishing all night.

Saying that they dropped the ball implies that they ever meant to carry it in the first place.

[Bob Alpacadaca]

We don't look like the same team that played the Phillies.

Ka-PoW!

[Centerfield]

Turned the game off. I can't stomach watching it.



Sometime later I'll think back and enjoy this team for what it was. But not tonight.

[batmagadanleadoff]

Maybe if the Dodgers keep on scoring so many runs, they'll be too tired to play a good game tomorrow.



That's all I've got.

[Frayed Knot]

I think LA has more hits with runners on tonight than we have in the entire series.

[Edgy MD]

Well, Danny Young got a taste.

[batmagadanleadoff]

Do you think that Grimace gets his fries box filled to the top when he orders large fries?

[Edgy MD]

Bases loaded for Ohtani.



Fight, fight, fight for your dignity.

[Frayed Knot]

Whose turn is it to get stranded this inning?

[Edgy MD]

#dignity

[batmagadanleadoff]

The Mets could tie this game with grand slams this and next inning.
