Right out of the Angel Hernandez playbook.

2-0 SuckinUmps, looks like 3 might be coming up shortly.

[Edgy MD]

Bastardo hung that one out to dry.

[Zvon]

@KeithOlbermann
Another umpire who thinks the pregame ceremonies were for him. Adam Hamari has no business in a ballpark without a ticket #DeleteYourCareer

I just saw this. Ya can't do what Thor did these days. Utley crushes us.

[ashie62]

Too bad Backman can't manage from here on.

[Zvon]

I don't care what the rules are (they don't), I'm protesting this game.

[Zvon]

yea, I guess I'm still a little upset.

lil' bit

Resolved: just fucking hit utley already, damnit.

[Edgy MD]

Well, if that was retaliation, it couldn't have backfired any more utterly.

[Frayed Knot]

Not sure it's possible to write a worse script for tonight.

No more warnings needed? Then they're fuckin' up my game.

[Fman99]

Seriously, fuck you, Face Buttley.

[ashie62]

This is an embarrassing game for the Mets at this point.

In a fight, make sure you can finish what you start.

We got punked by one guy. Chase Utley.

Later.

Yeah, that would certainly change things. We'd probably have 10 or 15 hits by now if that were the case.

[Guest cooby]

Wait. You are saying they ejected syndergaard?

In the 2nd inning for NOT hitting a batter.

Yeah just do it now

[Fman99]

Also, Antonio Bastardo stinks.

[Guest cooby]

Should they play under protest? Or don't they do that anymore?

Do we get to vote on where he gets hit?

[Lefty Specialist]

Bastardo has been pretty awful this year. I know they were in a bit of a bind pitching-wise, but they need to bury him for a while.

[Edgy MD]

PUT IN HARVEY!

[Frayed Knot]

In the meantime, in (almost) six games with the Dodgers this season we have just 3 runs and 9 hits off their bullpen in 17-1/3 innings - all of the runs and most of the hits came last night.

While the Dodgers have scored 12 runs off the Mets pen is just the last 7 innings.

[Edgy MD]

Dodgers running players out there wearing 14 and 31.

Mets honor Dodgers players better than the Dodgers do.

[Zvon]

They wanna spruce up baseball? Make it so fans can throw umpires out of the game if they make an obviously horrible call.

This game may as well be the worst. Get the worst behind us. One loss is just a loss.

Hey, imagine if they came back....

I'd bust another brain cell.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

such bullshit.

[Edgy MD]

Who called for this replay?

[Edgy MD]

Don't swing at the first pitch. Don't swing at the first pitch. Don't swing at the first pitch.
