I was thinking that too. It looked like Lagares' hand may have reached under the catcher's leg and tapped the plate before the glove came down on his back. I hope we find out on what basis the call was overturned.

    They should all be in the starting lineup on the same day, and Mayor deBlasio can throw out the first pitch.

    Eric Young to the DL with a hamstring injury. Matt den Dekker gets the call.

    CBSsports.com wrote: IF Dilson Herrera, Mets: Acquired from the Pirates as the player to be named later in last August's Marlin Byrd/John Buck trade, the 20-year-old Herrera went into Friday's game leading the minor leagues with 67 hits. He is hitting .328/.368/.436 with three home runs and 11 stolen bases at High Class-A this season, showing off his ability to hit to all fields and an advanced approach at the plate. Herrera played second base exclusively while with the Pirates, but the Mets have given him some time at shortstop and the early returns are positive. Most players to be named later are fringe prospects. Herrera is legit and his excellent start to the season as well as the continued development of his skills have him climbing the prospect ranks this year. He is still two years away from helping the Mets, give or take.

    I think Hank Aaron had lost a home run to a rainout. That got some attention, as I recall, as he was chasing Babe Ruth's home run record.

    Those search results include a link to Burt Reynolds' IMDB page. No surprise; that page is a hotspot of Jose Reyes debate.

    I really liked Cloverfield, and District 9 was cool. I thought Wall-E was awful. I loved Rise of the Planet of the Apes, and I agree that X-Men: First Class is the best of the X-films. (I hope Days of Future Past keeps the mojo going.) Avatar was okay, I guess, but a bit too pretentious (and too lengthy) for me. I would have guessed that Hellboy and Unbreakable were 20th Century films. They seem like a long time ago.

    Voting for Tuesday night's loss to the Dodgers at Citi Field will close some time over the weekend, but not before 10 a.m. on Saturday. Schaefer POTG 5/20/14 - Dodgers 9, Mets 4

    After the weird infield-fly double play, as SNY was going to a commercial, they showed a clip of Daniel Murphy shouting to Flores. You can easily read his lips: "Tag him! Tag him! Tag him! Tag him!" Reminded me of my days coaching my daughter's softball team. "Step on the base! Step on the base!" Meanwhile the kid is looking at you dumbfounded, as if you're shouting "Split the atom! Split the atom!"

    I like that Cyclops' dad was romantically involved with a giant female skunk.

    Well, there was Ike Davis in the second half of 2012.

    Keith Hernandez, Tom Herr, Garry Templeton, Joe Torre. Best Mets-Phillies starting rotation.

Yes, it's more than a little nutty to say that it's impossible for the home team to win in a particular ballpark when it's evidently possible for the visiting team to win in that same park.
