Mets ITG 2/22, 1:05 pm - Mets @ Yankees

[Cowtipper]

Mets at Yankees. Good guys vs. bad guys.

Justin Hagenman v. Luis Gil.

Discuss.

[Cowtipper]

Mets are up 1-0! Jared Young hit a home run!

[metsmarathon]

i'm spoiled. i want all the spring training games on the telly. not some ******** yankee app.

just give me a live webcam. i'll be happy enough.

[Edgy MD]

Bat Torrens third, find out that he can hit like a #3 hitter.

Same with batting Young fourth.

Seriously, though, this is a day-after-clinching lineup that they sent up to Tampa.

[metirish]

I'm watching this on MLB Network, it's only the YES feed?

[Edgy MD]

We've got Mike Bauman bringing knuckle curves for the Mets.

And hey, that's Amed Rosario up there for the Yankz.

[metsmarathon]

Yeah and only out of networkily on the mlb network

[Edgy MD]

Carson Benge is not bringing his Benginess.

[Edgy MD]

Second homer on the day for Luis Torrens!

All hail Mr. February!!

[Edgy MD]

Mets have pulled the plug on the Carson Benge experiment, replacing him with Ji Hwan Bae.

[Edgy MD]

Second homer on the day for Luis Torrens!

All hail Mr. February!!

 

Gameday now backing up and telling me that second homer was Hayden Senger, pinch-hitting for Torrens.

Fake news! Alternative facts!

[Edgy MD]

Yankees' new DH is Jorbit Vivas, which is an NPC name if I ever saw one.

[Edgy MD]

A three-run homer by JT Schwartz puts the Mets in the catbird seat with a 6-1 lead!

Go, Ambiguously Metly Mets!!

[Edgy MD]

Kenedy Corona homers for the Yanks in the bottom of the eighth and they get those three runs back.

Get Kimbrel up!!

[Cowtipper]

Brian Metoyer seems like he's been in the Mets system forever.

[Cowtipper]

That's former Mets prospect Kenedy Corona, by the way. He was traded for ... someone, but I don't remember who.

[Cowtipper]

It was Jake Marisnick. With Blake Taylor. Who the Mets probably shouldn't have gotten rid of.

[Edgy MD]

Kenedy Corona went in the easy-to-forget Jake Marisnick deal.

Zack Short, also scoring on that homer, gave the 2024 Mets 12 highly futile trips to the plate.

But Ji Hwan Bae has led off the ninth with a double and all is good with the world.

[Edgy MD]

Get Gerber out of there!!

[Edgy MD]

Carlos Guzman — 27 and on his third organization — on for the save!!

[Cowtipper]

Carlos Guzman has been on the periphery of my radar for a couple years now.

[Cowtipper]

It's getting dicey!

[Edgy MD]

One-out walk to Garret Martin, who I believe used to produce the Beatles! Tying runs on!!

[Edgy MD]

Down goes Short!!

One Yankee left to get!!

[Edgy MD]

Ernesto Martinez, Jr. grounds out!! They're pouring onto the field!!! OH, IT'S MAYHEM!!!!

[Cowtipper]

And he was got. Mets win, 6-4.

Homers by Jared Young, Luis Torrens, Hayden Senger and JT Schwartz highlight the day. Schwartz is a multipositional talent that doesn't have much going for him offensively, but he has played every position except catcher and centerfield in his minor league career.
