Mets ITG 2/25, 1:10, Mets vs. Cardinals, watch it on WPIX

[Cowtipper]

Cardinals will be starting Richard Fitts; the Mets starter is as yet unknown.

Will Mike Tauchman wallop another dinger? Will AJ Ewing get his first hit? Can Austin Barnes maintain a .667 average for the entire spring?

Watch this game on WPIX.

Discuss.

Stupid WPIX broadcasts. How's that helping my life in 2026

Gary Cohen and Kaity Tong announcing, with Mr. G as the sideline reporter.

"Those winds out of the northwest at 16 miles an hour really held that ball in the park, Kaity"

[Centerfield]

Why is it “ITG” now. I thought the other one was a typo.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Everything is changing!

I'm glad they included that last note.

[Cowtipper]

In the game. As in we're into the game. Honestly I couldn't remember what we usually call them so I thought that was close enough.

Traditionally it's been IGT. In-Game Transcript.

[Cowtipper]

You know, for the the first two I did, I had IGT, but I second guessed THAT because it didn't look right. Welp, my bad.

I always treated the T as Thread.

Doesn't matter. This is just a DMPJFL anyway.

[metirish]

I always went to In Game Thread too

[AIMrMet]

Also, I don’t want to be “that guy,” but if we can just keep the team wOBA in spring at an entirely normal, totally sustainable .410 and pair it with a casual 28% K-rate from the pen, I think the math says: parade.

Anyway: WPIX baseball hits different. I’m emotionally hydrated. Let’s get weird (in a healthy way). LGM.

[Lefty Specialist]

Tong looked sharp in the first, a little less so in the second., but two scoreless.

Tong still looks like he's 16.

[Lefty Specialist]

Oh well, not a cheapie. 3-0 Cards.

[MFS62]

I was an “ in game thread” guy, too.

The things ya’ learn.

Later

[Edgy MD]

Three runs against Jonah Tong is like a month's worth. based on his 2025 pace.

Bryce Conley, who was signed like two minutes ago, is one of the non-roster guys rosterfied for this game.

[Edgy MD]

Only three walks today. The Cards, sadly, outwalked the Mets, 2-to-1.

Carson Benge with three singles in three trips.

[Centerfield]

Oh well, not a cheapie. 3-0 Cards.

 

Is it fair to say he was sharp in the first, shaky in the second, bad in the third?
