Two in a row, four in a row, 10 in a row, or 100 in a row — they all start with one in a row. That was a cool one.

Liked to puff his cheeks while pitching.

Also, his first big league inning in Detroit allowed him a part in all three outs on defense, starting a nifty double-play and hustling over to cover first for the third out. [media=youtube]O1ztF9wz49c[/media]

So excited were we by the (technical) re-acquisition of Chris Flexen that we never took the time to honor Zach Muckenhirn on the way out the figurative door. Unfortunate! Zach had the peculiar record of appearing in three games on behalf of the Mets cause — one each in Detroit, Washington, and Pittsburgh. So while he was once (and may yet again be, I pray) a New York Met, he was never a New York New York Met — never appearing in a game while rockin' the pinstripes, or even the Friday Night Black. That is lamentable. Post your Muckenmemories here! [FIMG=600]https://cdn.mlbtraderumors.com/files/2023/07/zach-muckenhirn-new-york-mets-1024x683.jpg[/FIMG]

The first Phillie/Dodger to pop into my head was Face Buttley. I typed his name in but it didn't come up. Stupid wonky game.

Yeah. Hate and hate. "Your voice sounds familiar. Do I know you?" 　"Just call me ... The Captain." "Oh, I know! You're that guy who we had to get rid of before our team could be any good!!"

I was feeling lucky, so I headed on over to Wordle after the win and shot a birdie. Maybe I need to get me some scratch cards. Also worth noting: This wasn't just a game the Mets came out on top of. They played pretty sharp, tight baseball wire to wire, against a first-place team.

WOWwowWOWwowWOW!!!

Ass-ist to Robertson.

Evan Longoria is a guy who gets pinch-hit for these days?

This is still a terrific lineup in a tight ballpark that we need Robertson to retire.

Let's give partial credit on that walk to Canha.

Getting Canha up against the lefty here is the reason Buck didn't pinch-hit for him two innings ago.

If the Mets don't get a run here, we have a complete game from Senga ready to go into the books. I'd rather Senga does NOT throw a complete game or get a Loss. Looks like you get your druthers!

Do it again, Francisco.

We'll get that back.

Yes he did. Senga, meanwhile, has the fastball down the middle turning the 'Backs into deer in the headlights.

The 2023 version of Senga is working for me.

That's not a crazy thought. I was suspecting they were waiting for somebody to be cleared by the trainer.
