Fall in love with Frankie: 6/24 IGT

[ashie62]

BOOO

[Centerfield]

The guy with the .500 OPS.



Awful baseball.

[Frayed Knot]

Tie game and now the GOOD hitters are coming up.

Nick Allen, 3-3 on the night, is a .220 hitter.

[Centerfield]

Throw fucking strikes

[Edgy MD]

What a gift from the first-base umpie!

[Marshmallowmilkshake]

Brutal.

[ashie62]

Geez, bullpen almost empty

[ashie62]

Boooo

[Edgy MD]

The Mets have issued plenty of walks all season long.



It just took this long to catch up with them.



That hook of Frankie hurts so much.

[ashie62]

Frankie gets most of the Schaefer

[metirish]

Terrible

[Edgy MD]

Eleventh batter of the inning. Let's start him off with a ball.

[Frayed Knot]

Five runs, Three hits (2 out of the infield), 52 pitches (essentially 3-1/2 innings worth)

[Centerfield]

Fire everyone.

[Frayed Knot]

btw, the next run we score off the Braves bullpen this year will be our first.

[Centerfield]

Watch two strikes. Flail at a pitch in the dirt.

[Frayed Knot]

Top-6: They start four pitch walk

B-6: We start three pitch K

[Centerfield]

After a half season of games, this team's history suggests they won't come back in this game.

[Edgy MD]

Richard Lovelady — the opposite of scary.

[Centerfield]

Mendoza said when the Mets fall behind they start chasing.



No fight or grit to this team at all.

Or ten of eleven, with twelve of thirteen looking very likely.

That was strike three on Baty, but I like seeing him get a little lit up.

[kcmets]

The June Swoon continuueess...

Yeahbut, that strike two (on ball four) swing was tough to watch.

It's indicative of the terrible approach by this team. Swinging at ball 4 in the dirt when all you're trying to do is get on base is exactly the type of shit approach that this team has had all year long.

[metirish]

Who cares about rehab assignment results anyway?



Frankie Montas was everything the Mets could have hoped for tonight—and more.



Gelbs can be very annoying, five innings , relax

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Obviously a rough time at the park with the heat and all the ducking. Booed on 4 or 5 separate occasions.



I'm maddest at Mendy. Going into the prevent defense in the 6th inning sent a message that he believed the team wouldn't score anymore and it became a game of trying not to lose. That's loser baseball.



Put Lindor on the DL already, he's worthless since the hbp.



All that said had a good time suffering with our regular seat neighbors-- and 2 girls who sung along with all the music beautifully.



Afterward a packed and sweaty 7 Super Express arrived at 74th Street (where I transfer) on the wrong track and sat there for 10 minutes while the local passed it by. Deboarded at 61st and caught a local 7 back to 74th only to find the R trains were "delayed" so took an E to Queens Plaza and walked home. If I make all the transfers smoothly it's less than 20 minutes. This one took about 90 minutes.

[metirish]

Damn, that makes it suck even more

[MFS62]

I wasn't in love with Frankie, but now I'm kinda' like.

Later

[G-Fafif]

On a night so hot, I'm surprised the trains work at all. Mine were tetchy, but eventually got me https://www.faithandfearinflushing.com/2025/06/25/good-hang-with-frankie-montas/the glimpse of Dicky Lovelady I didn't know I'd been needing.
