IGT Tues 6/3 10:10 PM Mets @ Dodgers

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

You could tell Zimmo won the footrace by the way Kershaw spun to try and get the real 3rd out

[Edgy MD]

And Kershaw is chased!

[Frayed Knot]

Nimmo by a half-a-foot nets a run.





Now how do you set the runners if Pete was trying to score from second on the play? He wasn't, but he could have been.

Lol.

Good point. In a bang-bang play, the principal actors know who won.

I also want to save a thought in that area for Freddy Freeman. He is a smart fielder with good hands, but he moves around like a late-stage Bill Buckner and he has for a while now. He looks like he arrived at the park after working a full shift herding cows on horseback.

[Frayed Knot]

If Megill can get through this inning unscathed it'll be more than decent outing considering the start.



9 - 1- 2 due up and he's already taken care of #9

[Edgy MD]

Magillicutty is seemingly getting stronger.



Of course, the first-inning rally all happened after striking out Ohtani.

[Edgy MD]

There it is. He is pitcher of record on the long side, and may even have enough left to come out for the sixth.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Turning in

[Edgy MD]

Stay until Megilly gives up the ball.

[Edgy MD]

And he goes a sweet six and gets a Bravo! from Keith.

[Gwreck]

That's a real nice bounceback after the craptacular first inning. Well done by Megill.

[Frayed Knot]

This Casparius guy in ghosting NYM haters so far.

[Edgy MD]

Heckuva time to go to Waddy.

[Edgy MD]

But The Mighty Wad has become a man.

[Edgy MD]

Nimmo isn't the first Met to swing a sledgehammer in lieu of a bat.

That jumped away from Alvarez like his glove had a pop-o-matic in it.

[Frayed Knot]

Is everyone on the Dodgers hitting over .400 w/RiSP for the season?

[Edgy MD]

Reed Garrett, All-Star.

[Frayed Knot]

Book 'em Garrett!!

Retires 3-4-5 in the lineup after 2nd & 3rd and no outs!!!!

Everyone but Ohtani, I think.



But that just makes that inning by Garrett all the more remarkable.

[kcmets]

Reed Garrett, professionally keeping me awake.

In fairness to Freddie, he's been playing with leg issues most of the season and even going back to last year.

But I guess you could say the same thing with Buckner back in the day. FFF does turn 36 in September

[Edgy MD]

I figgered.



Apart from Buckner, the other guy he reminds me of is late-stage Kirk Gibson.



With the Dodgers going to the lefty, do you stick with Baty as the pinch-hitter, or go to Torrens?

[Edgy MD]

Torrens it is!

[Edgy MD]

Strap in.

[Edgy MD]

Man, Brazzy worked as hard as anybody last night.

[Frayed Knot]

And so we go from trying to avoid extra innings to praying for them.
