    5-1 Braves in bottom 6th ... make that 6-1 On the other hand, Chris Sale looks done for the night so maybe LAD gets to the bullpen.

    Nope

    So sorry. Longoria IS the Rays all-time HR hitter but his total clocks in at 261, nine higher than Straw/Mets TEAM PLAYER HRs #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 #8 #9 #10 #11 #12 #13 #14 #15 #16 #17 #18 #19 #20 #21 #22 #23 #24 #25 #26 #27 RAYS Evan Longoria261 #28 METSDarryl Strawberry 252 #29 #30

    This will be a multi-question quiz but done one Q at a time One paired guess (Franchise/Player) at a time. 3 points for correct team, 5 more for correct player. Phase 1: For which two franchises does their leading career HR hitter have fewer HRs than Darryl Strawberry's 252 for the Mets? TEAM PLAYER HRs #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 #8 #9 #10 #11 #12 #13 #14 #15 #16 #17 #18 #19 #20 #21 #22 #23 #24 #25 #26 #27 #28 METSDarryl Strawberry 252 #29 #30

    Bad, bad loss.
  7. Frayed Knot
    Without the tack-on run the fast guy would be the tying run.
  8. Frayed Knot
    Two outs / bases empty in bottom 6th with a three run lead ... and three NYM pitchers combine to retire three of the next nine batters.

    In the Yanx/Sawx game today, Gerrit Cole* opted to IW Rafael Devers with no one on and one out in the 4th inning. The move backfired as a walk, double and single followed and the Sox scored three and went on to win 7-1 That Devers had been 13/39 with 8 HRs!! in his career against Cole was the source of the strategy. I still think it was a bad idea. Cole also plunked Devers in another AB which didn't make the Sox happy. Nor did the three other HBPs * or Aaron Boone but it appeared to be Cole's call

    Slightly earlier start times for our rival games on this Saturday night: 7:20 - Dodgers at Braves; 8:10 - Brewers at DBacks; and 9:05 - Padres at Giants September records to date NYM 9-2 ATL 6-5 SDP 6-4 ARZ 6-5

    Surprised Vientos didn't break on contact, but gets in anyway. We're relying on the kindness of strangers again.

    Luis Arraez [[CROSSOUT]MIN, FLA[/CROSSOUT] SDP] has gone over a month (Aug 10) / 28 games / 124 plate appearances / and seen 445 pitches since his last K. The longest K-less streaks in the expansion era belong to: - Dave Cash, 223 PA w/the 1976 Phillies - Nellie Fox, 185 PAs, '62 White Sox - Bill Buckner, 184, '72 Dodgers - Greg Gross, 173 PAs, '79-'80 Phillies - Tony Gwynn (you knew this was coming, right?), 170, '95 Padres I mean all them, except Gwynn, were pre-Ronald Reagan.

    Aaron Judge hadn't HR'd in 16 days except now he just hit a GS to put the Yanx up 5-4 in the 7th after they trailed 4-0 entering the inning. EGG-Zactly what you don't want to do with a lead: Walk, Walk, Single, Walk (1 R), Grand Slam (4 Runs) Still 5-2 Braves, bottom 8th

    Hey, if you're going to serve up 9th inning 3R HRs then tonight is the time to do it. A shutout would have been nice, though.
  17. Frayed Knot
    C'mon Kody, your father threw broken bats harder than that!!
  18. Frayed Knot
    3 hits, 2 Ks, and zero walks for Q thru 6 And while there have been a few loud outs, two of the three hits are weak IF grounders.
  19. Frayed Knot
    I'm real good at boycotting companies I've never heard of.
  20. Frayed Knot
    OK Quintana, no walks or other gifts. Just like that ... you've got gloves behind you.
  21. Frayed Knot
    And unlike some of our recent run scoring innings, tonight we haven't had to, like Blanche Dubois, rely on the courtesy of strangers [bBs, HBPs, Es, etc.]
  22. Frayed Knot
    85+ pitches for Nola and still only one out in the 5th
  23. Frayed Knot
    Two marquee match-ups for MLB tonight: Braves/Dodgers, Yanx/Sawx ... both on Apple+ I'm sure MLB is quite happy about that. But how many eyeballs are they losing just when attention should be rising? I don't know if there are logo'd helmets in those games but yaneverknow.
  24. Frayed Knot
    MLB is so proud of this move that they've kept word of it off their own website. Not a peep on mlb.com
  25. Frayed Knot
    The Mets have been no-hit in 12 of the last 13 innings. On the other hand, they've given up just two runs over that time.
