  1. Stat cited as the Inning closed there: this was the first 'clean' inning for the Mets since the 4th inning in game 3 So, iow, no clean innings for the last 13!!!!! for NYM pitching.
  2. FOX just (very briefly) flashed up a stat showing that the Dodgers have had 2x as many ABs as the Mets w/RiSP and 4x as many hits. If that don't 'splain this series I'm not sure that anything else will
  3. Whose turn is it to get stranded this inning?
  4. I think LA has more hits with runners on tonight than we have in the entire series.
  5. Benjamin Grimm wrote: I noticed that too. I at least was able to rewind on my Tivo and watch it again. But yes, Fox dropped the ball there. Saying that they dropped the ball implies that they ever meant to carry it in the first place.
  6. Leadoff batter on, NYM run expectancy trends downward as a result.
  7. Back to the inning ending batter interference on the stolen base attempt, can you imagine a scenario where SNY never shows a replay and has no discussion as to whether it was the proper call or not? Of course you can't. But FOX cut right to their commercial(s) and never mentioned it again.
  8. We can't even get our fly outs in the right order.
  9. Not scoring when starting from bases loaded/no outs should be recorded as nine runners LOB
  10. If they had grooved fastballs to Ohtani in everyone of his ABs he would have scored fewer runs than he has watching four pitches each a foot outside.
  11. Another thing about these high walk/multiple pitching change games is the pace of them: two hours in and just barely starting the 6th. Throw in the later start and increased commercial time and I'm going to have a tough time surviving.
  12. Our leadoff [CROSSOUT]walks[/CROSSOUT] HBP not only doesn't score, he doesn't even move.
  13. The Cleveland closer, Emmanuel Clase, pitched 74 innings this season giving up 5 ER, 39 hits, and 2 HRs. Tonight he comes with 2 out and one on in the 8th and goes HR, HR, 1B before finally ending the inning.
  14. And Boone has the 'Bitching at Umpires' lead about 7 - Zip so far. He somehow got the umps to have a six-man confab in order to discuss a time violation on Juan Soto (it made the count 0-1). He then bitched about it all the way to the dugout and after that when they didn't reverse the decision. I have no idea what specifically the umps were discussing although I hope it was their post-game dinner plans.
  15. I usually don't have a problem dismissing those games where they suck at hitting, pitching and fielding all at the same time. But when it's this time of year and it happens twice in a three game span it's a bit more concerning.
  16. Usually the first game of each series and the first home game of the series for each city gets the prime time slot, so this just looks like a big ol' FU from the networks towards Cleveland (although it reverses tomorrow so it all comes out in the wash).
  17. Has a LAD hitter looked at a single strike three pitch tonight? ... cuz we've looked at about ten of them.
  18. This 'UNIVERSAL BASIC GUYS ' show looks like 'Must Miss' TV
  19. Oh good ... it had been several innings without a leadoff walk and I was starting to go into withdrawal.
  20. Now Alvarez is both flailing AND looking. That's his second backwards K of the game.
  21. Frayed Knot wrote: Good AB there by JDM Walk is the best possible outcome. Maybe. But my point was that he looked in control the whole AB and took several outside pitches he's (and half the team) been flailing at.
  22. Mets have been blanked in 21 of the 24 innings so far. All 9 in 1st game, 6 of 9 in 2nd, all 6 in this one.
  23. Sometimes it's what you do with two outs and we ain't done shyeeet tonight.
