[Benjamin Grimm]

Today's game features a matchup between two starting pitchers who started postseason games for the Mets last season.



Has this ever happened before? Yes! Five times!



In 2000, Masato Yoshii, now with the Rockies, faced Rick Reed twice. In 2001, Mike Hampton, also a Rockie, one with well-educated children, faced Reed once and Al Leiter once. And also in 2001, Bobby Jones of the Padres faced Reed once.

[Frayed Knot]

It seems rather odd that there are two ML players named Max Muncy, particularly that they're playing simultaneously.

I mean, it's not a name like Bobby Jones, Bob Miller, or Luis Castillo. I think we need sportswriter Max Mercy to investigate this.

[whippoorwill]

Is Yoshii the one that hopped?

[Frayed Knot]

No, Matsato Yoshii was a pitcher.

You're thinking of OF'er Tsuyoshi Shinjo

That's pretty funny lol...

[ashie62]

Lindor and Soto both get on base

E4

[Frayed Knot]

The SACletics keep handing the Mets walks and errors and Met bats keep handing them back.

Other than running up the pitch count on Severino, that was a waste of a half inning.

[ashie62]

Vientos looked lost while whiffing



Baty caught looking



Ughhhh

[ashie62]

Baty and Acuna looked great on that DP



Baty at 3b today, maybe that alone gets him going

[kcmets]

Nimms, professional baseball player....

[Frayed Knot]

Coming into the game today, the Mets have 18 hits and 35 RBIs in 117 ABs w/RiSP this season.

Pete has five of those hits [1 single, 1 double, 3 HRs] and 14 of the RBIs

[kcmets]

VIentos, professional whiffer and belly itcher....

Haha! Yep I remember someone nicknamed him ‘Hop'



I was a little surprised to see Alonso in the lineup today

[Frayed Knot]

That FO to deep RF got an audible 'Uh-Oh' from me off the bat.

But then it wound up about three feet short of an HR.

[Frayed Knot]

All right, a two-out hit!! ... except that they saved it for the one inning where no one was on base.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Send Vientos to Binghamton.

[kcmets]

Torrens, professional RBI producer...

Baty too?

Think they can make a one-run lead hold up for four more innings?

I think we have reason to be a lot more confident in the bullpen than the offense?

Maybe. I feel like Vientos is beating himself; one of the things Vientos was good at last year was not getting distracted by anything. He looks defeated before he gets up now.

[Edgy MD]

Taylor didn't slide there because his upper butt was still barking from that HbP.

[Edgy MD]

Think they can make a two-run lead hold up for three more innings?

[Frayed Knot]

Vientos with the R"B"I

[Marshmallowmilkshake]

Three, now. Murdoch wasn't even close on some of those.
