That messed-up entrance lighting is ... messed up!

And now we're definitely going to need support.

Fitty-eight pitches through four. He practically struck out Soler three times in one trip to the plate. Great show so far, but let's get him some supportage.

Don't hit into double-plays.

And nine up and nine down for Severino.

Narváez not only just got the Mets first hit, it was the first hit from the catcher position since Álvarez hurt hisself. Nice hustle.

Joey Wendle back in the lineup and Harrison Bader getting a rest, as the Mets stack the lineup with lefties. Giants try to do the same, only not as drastically.

I'm at the point where I'm close to typing names of people that don't exist, but kind of sound like that guy from that team. The worst is when I spend twenty minutes on ... that Expos pitcher ... you know the one ... he mostly started ... and he kind of stood out because the Expos disappeared before Japanese players became more ubiquitous ... and it was a less polysyllabic name ... Oh something ... but that can't be right ... Oh is more of a Chinese name ... but it kind of sounded like that ... or kind of like a Japanese emperor or famous general ... maybe like Tojo? ... AND I'M THINKING OF TOMO OHKA!! And then after all that ... I find out he's already been named. Frus-ter-a-ting.

Hunter always struck me as thin-skinned.

I don't know about youse, but I was shocked to see how much Jung Hoo Lee's game was modeled on Ichiro's. Also, his ears are kind of elf-like.

Well, they found some offense, anyhow, and burned the Giants' closer in the deal.

This is Bizzaro World. The Giants dee is choking, but Wilmer is rock solid on every play.

Make him throw a strike, Alonso!

Did we get a cricket hit on a bounce?

A nine-pitch walk for Nimmo is the way to get started though.

Swinging first pitch, still.

I realize Keith sees meaning in mechanical execution, but I don't like celebrating good contact without good outcomes.

And there's Lindor taking a walk on four pitches. The worm turns!

Things have been kinda ill since Nimmo uncharacteristically swung at the first pitch of the game last night. Has this been two straight nights without a single walk?

Mac Suzuki!! [FIMG=350]https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b9/Mac_Suzuki.JPG[/FIMG]

Our road greys look satin-y with this nu fabric.

The Mets decided not to sign Conforto? I thought I remembered him turning down a QO.

Jung Hoo Lee wears Ichiro's digits well.

=Cowtipper post_id=153080 time=1713838486 user_id=166] Alvarez gets hurt and the Mets turn for the worse, apparently.
