[Fman99]

Today's game starts at 7:35. No word yet on who else may have been injured since yesterday. Gsellman vs Teheran are the scheduled starters.

Gsellman and Teheran. Thats a mismatch for us.

My guess is Gsellman

[Chad ochoseis]

Fun fact - in 413 plate appearances against Teheran over his career, which isn't a small sample size at all, the Mets have hit .197/.273/.284.

[Benjamin Grimm]

So only slightly worse than they do against everyone else.

[metirish]

Finally get to see the Braves new digs......

We'll need more innings. I say, we should consider calling up "Paulfael Gilconlon," and have four guys check into the clubhouse on each other's shoulders, all under a big trenchcoat.

[G-Fafif]

The walking not notably wounded

Conforto LF
Cabrera SS
Bruce RF
Walker 2B
Granderson CF
Reyes 3B
d'Arnaud C
T. Rivera 1B
Gsellman P

Time to put on my helmet and carry on.

Conforto says "Be optimistic!"

CONFORTO-Boom!

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Them some gigantic seats behind home plate. Other than that any park Gsellman pitches in in the first inning sucks.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

This game is cruising along rather briskly. Tied at 1 on a pair of matching leadoff home runs.

[Benjamin Grimm]

And Walker singles in Cabrera to break the tie.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Mets open the 4th with 3 straight hits to retake the lead. Runners on the corners with no out. The black hole" is at the plate.

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

Nice inning happening here. Bases loaded, no out, Reyes up, 1 in

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Granderson draws a wlk to load the bases for Reyes. Still no outs.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Gotta cash in a few more here.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

The Mets need one more clean hit.

[Chad ochoseis]

And they get one! Sherlock being conservative tonight.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

That will do. Now maybe Gsellman can help himself. Nice try, but no cigar.

[Benjamin Grimm]

Let's see Conforto break this thing open...

[Guest John Cougar Lunchbucket]

We're almost a quarter of the way to 23

[Guest d'Kong76]

6-1! Kick the extra point or go for two?

Hah, ya beat me!

[Benjamin Grimm]

Maybe Teheran should get an MRI.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Gsellman working to give back some runs. Runners at 2nd and 3rd with no outs.

[Frayed Knot]

I mentioned this the other day, but our pitchers have been great at give-back innings this year, and by great I mean lousy.
Give them some runs and they can't seem to put up a Zero in the next half-inning.
And here we have Gsellman going 2-for-2 in give-backs so far tonight.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

FC and grounder up the middle scores 2 runs. Runner on 1st with one out. Time to put a stop to this.

6-4-3 DP shuts it down.
