(And I think it's documented somewhere on this forum.) I had this strong sense that they were playing over their heads, and unfortunately I was right.

    The Mets lost the first two games they played in Puerto Rico (the two that I attended) but then won the third game, after we had returned home. It was a weird experience. It was a Marlins home game, with Billy Marlin on site, and a countdown to the new stadium in Miami, but it was totally a Mets crowd. No seventh-inning stretch, at all. When I'm at a game, I sometimes like to stand up before everyone else for the 7th-inning stretch and gesture for everyone to rise, and when they do I feel like they were all heeding my command. I did that in San Juan and nobody stood up. Nobody! And I know that there were a lot of people there from the mainland who made the trip, but somehow they knew that there's no seventh-inning stretch in Puerto Rico but no one told me.

    I was at the two games that came after that date, in San Juan, Puerto Rico. As that graph shows, about a week later the wheels came off and the season unraveled.

    I like how the graph I posted above has automatically adjusted itself.

    I suspect that my first thought upon waking up tomorrow morning will be to wonder how the Nationals did in San Francisco tonight. (Joel McHale is telling me that my phone is old and weird. Of all the nerve!) I just got advertised at!

    Even less suspense.
  8. Benjamin Grimm
    Now it's 8 to 3. Doesn't look like this game will have too much suspense.

    Noah batted for himself in the 6th, so I guess he'll take the mound for the 7th. He's thrown 89 pitches.
  10. Benjamin Grimm
    Nice job by Murphy catching that throw from Flores to complete the double play.
  11. Benjamin Grimm
    Today is Kelly Johnson Day!

    Noah: 79 pitches through 5 innings. I'm thinking that he'll go 6 and then turn it over to the bullpen.
  13. Benjamin Grimm
    That was nice!
  14. Benjamin Grimm
    Syndergaard has thrown 62 pitches through 4 innings. He should be able to go 6, maybe 7 with a little luck.
  15. Benjamin Grimm
    And he does it! A double to right-center.
  16. Benjamin Grimm
    Infield pop up. Oh well. It's up to Kelly Johnson to get the rib eye steak.
  17. Benjamin Grimm
    They were playing back to concede the run. Not sure there was anything Murphy could do. Uribe batting with Cespedes on third, one out.
  18. Benjamin Grimm
    I'm thinking/hoping he'll settle in. 32 pitches in the first two innings isn't great, but not too bad either.
  19. Benjamin Grimm
    Another double! 3-2 Mets! Now if Noah can refrain from giving up two homers each inning, we should be fine.
  20. Benjamin Grimm
    Uribe ties it up with a weird double!
  21. Benjamin Grimm
    Murphy gets us one back quickly.
  22. Benjamin Grimm
    I blame the parakeet.
