Double play! Fkn A!

Okay. Closing time.

>>>>>>>KELLY!!!!

It's back. That was wacky. Was that way for the entire inning, came back on commercial. This is regular TV, not MLBtv tonight.

shit. Fox has gone black screen on me. Both reg & hi def are just a blank black screen. All other channels work. damn

Conforto would have run that out. Did deAza hit his own foot w/the bat? Tonight, worse than useless. It might be early yet tho.

Grandy with the leather and we are in extras!

My wish was to see Wright & Reyes playing together for the Mets again so I'm half happy. If by some miracle Wright returns this season AND we make it to the big show, win or lose, that would be a storybook ending for me, a better one if we win. Of course I only expect Reyes to be a bit player, but that's a pretty good chip to have in your pile.

Go stub your toe de Aza! I wanted a shot of Nimmo in MLB Mets dress so of course they are wearing throwbacks. The Royal Giants ones. They're nice tho.

WOWZERS!

IT'S THE LAST FREAKIN' OUT OF THE GAME, what are you going to do, SAVE IT for another time?!? lol. It's like they are wind up toys anymore. Wow, what a play by Loney to end the game. And at the plate as well. That kaBOOM was gone off the bat. But that play...that alone was worth his acquisition. That was beyond awesome. Last out, the win and Fammy's new record breaker on the line. Crucial. Yea,Wilmer got all cross wristed, but I'll give him credit for doing good after he fucked up. Credit to lil d' too for telling him the proper thing to do next. I was okay with Matz facing Fkn Frdy Frmn. If he can't rise to such occasions, especially only 5 innings in with a nice lead, we gots to know. What a freaky Friday game. Good win. Important win. Gratz 2 Fammy.

Now 5-5 with the Braves on the year. Unacceptable. But there's always a thorn. There's always a shitty team that sticks it to you. That's not an excuse when you get to 5-5 after starting the season 5-1 And in the five they've lost they've blown leads in three of them and been one-hit in the other two. Youch. That's pretty depressing. Hey, you guyz are supposed to try & cheer me up, not make it worse. Metro-meter: [=#FF4000]\ ]. In the orange-red! A new low for 2016.

But the 'I can't tell' response is exactly why it shouldn't be overturned. No need to get all Thomas Paine-y on me. I'm aware of the rule. The guess that it was going to get overturned was logical because since the introduction of replay it seems that too many folks weren't aware of the 'clear and convincing' evidence part of the equation. Like I said, that seems to have been getting better lately (by chance or by design I'm not sure) but too often they've just been replacing live guesswork with grainy video guesswork. Now all they have to do is actually stick to the policy where one wrong challenge actually means you don't get another and then teams would stop challenging every bang-bang play in the 1st inning knowing that a wrong guess won't come back to bite them. I think as far as the "getting it right" thing the umps have become a bit obsessive. I don't understand why because it works against the goal.

Ugh. Ow. This one really hurt. It's game one of this series and I have the same feeling I had after the sweep, which was as low as I go. If not for the Royal mini-sweep I might have gone lower on my Meto-meter. Not good.

Time to answer right back. Because that's what championship caliber teams do Also if lil d' is going to throw to 2nd like his last two all the time I will stop worrying about our catcher. Hitting as well would be nice and he has been making some decent contact. He'll start running into a few at the plate.

gah, fk me. Reed. It would be nice if these guys came thru every time but that's a lot to ask. 4-3 Natives

He did, and I expected one of them to say Bonny didn't expect a close play. He slide in reaction to lil d', not the ball. He had no freakin idea where the ball was,lol. Again, what a throw.

FFF! grrrrr Blevins going in the 8th hoping to keep his blank inning run intact. FFF on 1st. He did something, got there. I'm not going into details on him anymore. Maybe I jinx him or something. Big K by Blevins. 1 out.

I agree that a juicy argument would have been nice there. Just so we could sit back a bit. They should allow 23 seconds for arguing. If he stops b4 the times up, he can't be tossed.

It was a terrible slide but I don't think Bonicfacio expected the ball to be involved.

OUT ON REVIEW!! AWESOME!! What a throw. Braves are getting tossed.

Big purple OMG! What a throw by Conforto! OUT AT THE PLATE!!! I didn't think he had a chance. lil d' hangs in there and blocks the plate. It will be reviewed. Im thinkin 50/50

Ohhhhhhhh, shit. Almost a great catch by Conforto, but he couldn't corral it. Gil walked the lead off guy. Luckily Conforto kept the ball from going past him on the diving effort and we have 1st & 2nd, no out.
