IGT - NLDS Game 1 - Mets at Dodgers - 10/9/15, 9:45 PM EDT

Clippard hangs another one. He's just not as sharp with the location as he was in August.

FAMILIA IN

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Yuk. Thats 3 guys who hit it hard this inning so far

[Centerfield]

GO GET FAMILIA.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Jeurys coming in to face the tying run at the plate. Going for the four-out save.

[Gwreck]

Whatever. Adrian Gonzalez is the best hitter in this lineup, it was just a single (nice job by Cespedes to hold him to that). I would have left Clippard in to face Turner.

[Lefty Specialist]

Note to Terry: Addison Reed in the 8th tomorrow.

[Frayed Knot]

Gotta double switch somebody, no? The 9th spot is due up this inning.
Not sure who though. Duda & d'Arnaud mad the final outs.

[TransMonk]

So, is Familia going to bat in the bottom of the 8th? Must be double switch somewhere, right?

You could put Plawecki in for d'Arnaud.

[Edgy MD]

It's a Familia affair!

[Benjamin Grimm]

Duda out. Johnson to second, Murphy to first.

[Elster88]

Terry not fucking around he's going to the duke

Clippard is a fly ball pitcher who's given up two hard-hit balls and has made a bunch of mistakes up/middle-in over the last few weeks. Gimme Familia.

[Fman99]

Yeah Turner, sit down! Eight in the books.

[Piggiestomatoes]

Sit down you Leprechaun looking MF'er.

[Valadius]

Nice out!

[Centerfield]

Ok. Let's score 15 and I will start to feel comfortable.

Guys get hit, it happens. But if you look at where the catcher is setting up, Clippard is missing his spots and that's why he's getting knocked around.

[Elster88]

Now that the crisis has passed. I really think Clippard got burned out when Terry went to him every day when he was doing so well. Could still be feeling the effect?

[TransMonk]

MORE RUNS, PLEASE!

I thought of the double switch but started to blank when thinking of potential combos.

[crossout]8-9-1[/crossout] 7-8-9 coming up for the Mets.
[crossout]5-6-7[/crossout] 6-7-8 for the Dodgers in the bottom half.

I hail Murphy's glove.

Everything you ever learned, yo learned from Dave Hudgens, Turner.

[Edgy MD]

You had dirt from Yankee Stadium at the birth of both of your children? Really?

How does that work?

[TransMonk]

They used the same three "Let's Go, Mets!" kids in the 9th as they did earlier in the game.

Bad form, TBS.

[Fman99]

Yeah, a two run lead is good, but, hey, how about a 3-4 run lead?

I was wondering where all those All-Star jerseys were coming from.

[Lefty Specialist]

Fasten your seatbelts.

[Centerfield]

Ok. Let's finish this.

[Frayed Knot]

Ethier - Ellis - Ederson due up.
Just no E's on the Mets side I hope.

Clippard's BEEN overdue for a correctIon-- velocity drop this year, coupled with weirdly low HR rates for a flyball guy-- for the last two seasons or so.
