  1. Cubs tack-on via an error (3B), line-out, Error (1B), FO, passed ball, K But at least we're not just handing it to them.
  2. UNFUCKINGBELIEVEABLE!!! And that error has got to be on Minter. The flip hit him in the glove.
  3. It's like they invent a different way to screw up on a daily basis.
  4. His delivery is a cross-fire hurricane.
  5. Torrens for Baty is interesting, but Luis does tend to make contact and he can't hit into a GiDP ... and he takes a walk.
  6. I was just about to type 'and yet again another inning with two runners on despite nothing even resembling hard contact' when an inning-ending GiDP occurs.
  7. Good news: Mets = 4 HRs tonight Bad news: Mets = five hits tonight
  8. Where's Bob Davidson when we need him?
  9. And yet another multi-run inning, this one on a bloop double followed by a misjudged fly and a non-turned DP
  10. In the previous eight games [CIN x 3, PHI x 3, CHC x 2, so not including this ongoing contest] the Mets have given up runs in 24 different innings. 8 of those were one run innings (not surprisingly, these all came in the two NYM wins). In the other 15 innings where the opposition scored they scored at least twice for a total of 60 runs. There were five 2 run innings, five 3 run innings, two 4 run innings, also one 5-spot, one 6-spot, and an eight run frame.
  11. It's gotten to the point where they can never make just ONE mistake, but instead wind up making two or three in a row. As a result there have been very few one run innings against and a while lotta crooked numbers. And here the Cubs have three in, have knocked out the pitcher, still have no one out, and haven't hit a ball solidly all inning.
  12. Nice shot by Ewing, btw, and he also drove two to the warning track in the early game. Just hope these aren't signs of him getting too HR happy.
  13. Two HRs/three RBIs in one inning!! The Mets haven't lost a game where that happened since .... ummm, shortly after lunchtime
  14. I just had to post the Phils' top of the 9th in Washington from Tuesday night. The Nats led by 2 and reliever Brad Lord K'd the first two hitters of the inning and was 2-2 on Trea Turner so the Phils were down to their last strike with bases empty. But then: Single - 2R HR - Single - Single - 3R HR - Walk <Paxton Schultz replaces Brad Lord> Single - 2-Run Double - Walk - RBI Single - and finally the 3rd out. So the inning that started 8-6 Nats wound up 14 -9 Phils.
  15. Cubs get two on in top 1 without getting a ball out of the infield. But two outs now., so can Manaea avoid the two-out NYM ins? oe: And he does!! Took him a million pitches [three full counts in five batters] but he escaped unscathed otherwise.
  16. This team may seriously not win a single game for the rest of the season.
  17. Except that often lately, that point comes in the 1st inning.
  18. Opposing runs scored with two outs: - Friday v Philly: 2 of 3 - Saturday vs PHI: 10 of 15 - Sunday/PHI: 0/6 - Tuesday/Cubs: 6/9 - Today: 6/6 So that's 24 of the last 39 have come after two were out. (37% is MLB average). And in this series not only is it 12-of-15 but 8 of them have come only came after two outs and no one on. Similar to the (lack of) clutch hitting from the Mets in the first half of last year, numbers like these are simply incomprehensible particularly since they're Not just limited to the recent small sample cite from the most recent five games.
  19. First two runners on, no runs get even close to scoring due to GiDP. Lather. Rinse. Repeat.
  20. And continuing the trend I've been talking about lately: six runs today, all scored/knocked-in after two are out.
  21. Second straight game with three straight Chicago hits starting with two outs and none on. Last night the final two Cubs runs of the game came on a Double - Double - Double in the 8th inning. Today it's Single - Double - HR in a four pitch sequence.
  22. McLean's career-to-date WHIP is a very nice 1.07 If that stat was amended to WHHBPIP [W+H+HBP/IP] I think it might north of 1.57
  23. Inning #1) Leadoff double = nothing Inning #2) 1st & 2nd/no outs = nothing Only the Ewing FO moved a runner. The other ABs with runners on were K, K, GiDP, K
  24. Brilliant strategy by the Cubs dropping the foul pop for the inevitable GiDP they knew was in the offing.
