  1. Me and the missus are doing a rather extensive road trip this month. We're going to northern Michigan to spend a week at a resort with friends. But we're going the distance via Dyersville, Iowa. We booked a night in the Field of Dreams house. Ridiculously expensive but what the hey, you only live once. I actually visited the field in 1992, before all the hoohah, when it was still just a minor tourist destination. Got a picture of myself in the corn, played catch with a few people, bought a t-shirt, and that was it. This time we'll actually be in the house. Rocking on the porch swing. Sitting on the stairs while we describe a dream about Fenway Park. Having breakfast in the kitchen. Looking out our bedroom window at the field. I worry that it won't match my anticipation, that it's gone corporate. But I'm ridiculously excited. Fortunately I'll have the SNY app. And if I hear any voices, well, I won't mention it down at the feed store.
  2. While they were playing the trumpet solo for the third time, we were hoping that Diaz wouldn't get distracted. We needn't have worried. That was intense.
  3. 1-2-3 for Ottavino. Timmy Trumpet warming in the bullpen.
  4. Zimmo went as apeshit as anybody in the stadium after that catch.
  5. Jake has seemed to weaken in the 6th inning every time.
  6. Don't like all these long fly balls off of Jake.
  7. Anderson looks like he's going to give them fits.
  8. Oh well. He showed some promise and I imagine he'll be a big part of the plans for 2023.
  9. Coors Light, the official beer of gross sweaty guys sticking their head in the beer cooler.
  10. This just is not a competitive bullpen come playoff time.
  11. McCann is the definition of schneid. He needs to be gone next year. Pouring in NJ right now, so they're running out of time here.
  12. A thin line of thunderstorms is heading for Citi. Not sure when it'll get there as it's in eastern PA now. So it could complicate matters at some point in the proceedings.
  13. He's looked pretty overmatched all year. Hope they saved all these runs for the Dodgers.
  14. The long-term plan seems to be getting rid of the leagues altogether, at least as they're currently constituted, and reshuffling to regional divisions where the Mets and Yankees would play each other more, not less. Unfortunately.
  15. The Fat Man makes an appearance.
  16. Edgy MD wrote: It's like the Rox got the magic runner on second an inning early. My wife just left the room, dammit. Get her back. I can't take much more of this.
  17. Well, Diaz on for the 9th, and a chance to walk this off. Rockies are making the Mets work way too hard.
  18. Shoulda taken those revised mid-game DraftKings odds.
  19. Givens was a trade-deadline error by Eppler. Just brutal.
  20. Boy, the wheels fell off Bassitt quickly.
  21. One more win and they clinch a .500 season.
