Cabrera may be superstitious about this thing. Grandy took the helmet off himself and dropped it before entering the scrum, so Asdrubal, denied his duty, withdrew from the pack and went down a-crabbing his way between the feets to recover it.

Lagares and Cabrera give us a nice little demo.

It seems like a new tradition I've seen over the last few. When a Met hits a KABOOM!, the first teammate he meets at the dugout, he bows his head and the teammate respectfully removes his helmet and then tosses it to the wind in celebration.

David Wright looks like he's going to cause a few retirements before he packs it in himself.

Broken wrist, at least 3-4 weeks for a team that was struggling with him So the fielding crash between Gordon & 3B Mike Moustakas which broke Gordon's wrist has now claimed another victim. Moustakas, who was previously thought to have just a sore knee, in fact has a torn ACL and will likely miss the remainder of the season. THAT was one costly foul ball (especially since the crash knocked the ball loose and they didn't even get the out). Puts me in mind of the Wright/Davis collision, a seemingly mild crash that ended up costing the team months of both of them. From one perspective neither was ever the same either.

Everybody please join me in playing a sad trombone for David Thompson, Columbia third baseman and organized baseball RBI leader, landing on the disabled list for the Fireflies. But people... people! Check out the machine-like effectiveness of P.J. Conlon, leading the circuit in wins, ERA, and winning percentage, natch, third in WHIP and looking like he's high-stepping his way into prospect status. If he makes it, he'll be the first major leaguer born in Ireland since 1946, and the first born in the north of Ireland since the 19th century.

A Jay Horwitz sighting on the field.

He could have done any number of things. My thinking is stick with the guy pitching well, but...

A poor demonstration of baseball skill there.

Some nice Little League fun when the fielder falls down, gets up, finds the ball, and still gets the out because the batter fell down at the same time.

And yet... alas..

Howell is the type of pitcher Campbell is here to hit.

I don't know if Joe Schultz is passing the strategy around, but everybody in the league is busting Granderson inside.

My doctor says it's perfectly natural.

Hey Ron Darling, that George Foster homer that preceded the Ray Knight fight was a grand salami.

Great to get into the bullpen early in the first game of a series though.

Lagares is getting the job done.

Why is Walker and not Granderson making that throw? Why is Wright fielding the ball 11 feet in front of the bag? Why are the bases suddenly loaded with no outs?

Any particular reason Tom Goodwin feels like he needs to photobomb this interview?

He sticks his face in his open glove as part of his motion. Not saying he's cheating, but I don't know how he gets away with that.

What a wonderful start for a beautiful Friday night game.

Perhaps, but he's, you know, supposed to be a grown-up.
