He did look blocked, but the ball went so high out of Duda's glove. At least they took care of that expediently.

Don't mind me. I'm going to be cranky until after we come back.

HA! Marlins entire infield SUCKS!

[Edgy MD]

The thing is, the Marlins' team is twice the Mets' quality in defense.

Just, you know, not tonight.

What insanity makes that a hit?

The old no one touched it excuse.

[Zvon]

Jeeeeze. Yea, let them practice catching popups.

[Edgy MD]

Reed has earned some beer tonight.

[Edgy MD]

Take the first strike, Mets.

[Edgy MD]

And Flores listens not.

[Edgy MD]

And Flores swings 2-0.

Glub.

[Edgy MD]

Well, at least Cespedes is taking.

[Edgy MD]

Familia coming in for the eighth.

Who gets the ninth? Laggy or Wecky?

He's been hitting the ball hard all night.

De Aza with a very putrid swing there. Defensive to say the least.

[Zvon]

ha. Stanton puts his face guard back on to face Familia.

[Edgy MD]

They still have Blevins and Hendu, but I'd figured if either of them were available, they wouldn't be using Familia here.

[Guest d'Kong76]

9-4-6 see that all the time

[Edgy MD]

Even Ichiro is stinking up the show tonight.

[Edgy MD]

Hey, Blevins gave up a baserunner!

[Guest d'Kong76]

[Zvon]

That sucked. And they aren't going to replay that last out?

I'll wait until things get a little warmer before I start to worry.
But I think it's safe to say we aren't going to be running away with this thing.

Mets lost, I was sad.

It's going to be balmy in Cleveland this weekend.

BG - for future voting, would it be possible to group the pitchers together, either before or after the hitters?

This was the first game this season in which my eye really had to jump around to piece together who pitched when.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I've made it so that the pitchers' rows display in pink, so they'll be easier to spot. (That was a quick and easy change.) I may eventually get around to reordering the rows, but it's not currently in my plans. The voting form is intended to be used alongside a box score, not in place of one.

That will work - thanks!

[Guest themetfairy]

And it's helpful. If the pitchers had been pink earlier I would have thrown Familia half a point, but I overlooked him this morning. It'll be good for me going forward to have that visual clue.

It's Schaefer Voting Time!
