2016/04/05 IGT Game #2: Mets at Royals (Gay Dame)

[Edgy MD]

This coach-clocking business isn't working for me.

[Zvon]

Yea, give him ALL sliders!

[Zvon]

[bigpurple:2nmky5zw]YEAAAAAAAAA![/bigpurple:2nmky5zw]

[Edgy MD]

Humility, Kendrys.

[Zvon]

So I didn't yell at d'Arnaud, just gave him a snooty look.

Yeah, a dropped third strike, two potential GiDP balls not turned on weak grounders, a soft single, and a (partial) pitch-around walk followed up by an inning-ending 3-pitch K.
Just falling apart out there.

[ashie62]

Whatever it was he is out of it!

[Edgy MD]

Yeah, whatever it was.

[Zvon]

That's all for Thor. Man, what a pitcher we have here. And next up in NY should be deGrom, who I think is even better. These are the days folks.

[Zvon]

If I see another clip of the Royals jumping around celebrating last years WS win I'm going to have to cancel my subscription.

Let's see what Henderson can do for us out of the pen.

[Edgy MD]

Jim Henderson, seventh-inning guy.

[Zvon]

OOO, I think I'm gonna like Henderson. Dispatches them in order with 2 K's. Nice snap to his slider. Nice rise to his heat.

[Zvon]

So the gold in the Royals uni is just for this series. They will go back to blue right after.

Cabrera looked especially bad there at the plate.

Still 2-0 Mets.

[Guest cooby classic]

Home now...thanks for updates!

[Zvon]

Familia gets the ninth with a 2 run lead. What happens here is very important.

[Zvon]

Heart of the order too.

K's Cain. Niiiiiice. 1 out.

[Zvon]

Whoa, Walker almost boots a grounder but recovers. 2 out.

[Edgy MD]

ONE AND ONE!!

That wouldn't have been a boot. That's smothering a tough hop, Glenn Hubbard-style.

[TransMonk]

Syndergaard = Amazing

I'm satisfied with a two game split against the World Champs but not looking forward to two baseball-less days.

[Guest themetfairy]

Neil Walker - American Hero!

[Zvon]

Morales dribbles to d'Arnaud, and that ends it. Mets win! Familia looking good.

[Lefty Specialist]

That sound you hear is thousands of Mets fans stepping back from the ledge.

Syndergaarrrrrrd, aye, he be special.

[Guest cooby classic]

Hoooooray!

[ashie62]

I'll take Walker over Muffy.

Like Edgy said, he surrounded that ball so even if he flubbed it he had it in front of him. With Muff, 50/50 that woulda been a man on first.
Walkers quick to the ball too, good hands with the bat. And nary a worry on DPs. I will always miss Murphy but I do think things will at least even out there.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Exciting times when Syndergaard goes. I'm more thrilled watching him than Hovvey.

Best case scenario -- a rivalry develops.

[Guest d'Kong76]

He's the mane man!! Joy to watch.

[Guest cooby classic]

So.....when's the next game?

[Frayed Knot]

THOUGHTS!!!!

- That big Viking is going to be a sum'bitch this year (and quite possibly for a while after that as well)

- It's a home-run, Mr. Walker, it's a home-run.

- Nice penning from Hendu, Reed, and Familyman. 9-up/9-down
