And it's nice that that kid is is saluting the disembodied heads of his heroes. It's like no one can see them but him. Bobby: "Mom -- Jerry, Jerry and Tom are talking to me again! They're, like, right here!" Mom: "That's nice, Bobby. Eat your ice cream." Jerry: "Don't worry, Bobby. She can't see us. We're just an hallucination from the thin air up here in the last row of the upper deck. Have some more Yoo Hoo. Let's Go, Mets!" lmao. This is just classic. If 2011 didn't include the best logo known to man and the universe to offset the DOMINO'S FIELD LOGO I would have gone with '69. Yea, it's only on the scoreboard, and the '69 does have the logo as well, but that beautiful image of Shea get's me. The disembodied heads look so creepy. If they decapitated the entire team and floated 'em it may have come across better. Picture those old Topps team cards for the Chicago Cubs. For a number of years it was only just their heads pictured. [fimg=300]https://pulpephemera.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/1971-topps-chicago-cubs-team-502.jpg[/fimg]

I'll go so far as to say that it's my favorite Mets yearbook cover of the 70s and perhaps, my all time non-illustrated Mets yearbook cover favorite. I'll have to give that last claim some more thought. Me three. It encapsulates the essential.

I started viewing the game during the 6th inning. I watched it from the start but it was impossible to not hear that they won before I got anywhere near the 9th. Lots of good stuff in this game. Answering right back twice! Matz looked better. Rendon tossed for no reason. Nats manager right after him. Robles gives up a bomb, yet gets the win. Fammy was flawless. We are looking good.

Mine should arrive tomorrow. Kinda stoked. JoePs work also reminded me of this thing I did for Wright back in '15. I can use this again! I love when that happens [fimg=400]https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/GOqYf6-Xr9yGt9-apSY8DNwgWHSB85sWDzjoPRtvSTV0O6rqGIWq94MsXGm6lByJKMUY2CMcAM2YEPvI6Vqv0ZASxT-l0oNin6F90nIi9r8arNQ8XzEv66QRYag7piAxH5rb20UjiNin_2FsiHcpSxQQ6RYw9MwcNoaiWZrIlVyjNpLP5hN6MaQlBTt6fyswjXWl3MeHNUdgWfnEG-YxwX0WeA-gh00DyzNgEN_YVs5s8_TXBpQjIhR-FPzdNvQlb2lKaz05UemDAw2e3q8a-yQ5O7SYuc1_YSOIoIBX2jNmfbSRmWayKp14IosF5RMl1k0RoDkJhmuxBLwn3d0gVfctdJ9Fs6YtDQ8pySXyGBFgBzdyfpNdY6TC6iEJ9ZYToHVNN8msu2iirYEgEsN0ZZf0GIcRrubH47534oG14DF7MAJHoN5OuujhYRD3ir2tnBtUtBul5UoywhKtKkBlfI1O0ms53Fuz-iVqvYmks5smd-OH7rePwbMklEXCrN_p_yrnNybAF3_7f56_Orhku-jSm_6YFfSboKWiL4qMBzYwx2FNUaXxzxsZT5Gct29A6wV_pE_7LKKl2Xb01d-HkBuRrD9fdrzc05AOQIwr=w548-h396-no[/fimg]

Via SNY: Things you should know about today's game... 1) Jay Bruce's seventh-inning grand slam broke open a 4-2 game. The blast came immediately after Jacob deGrom worked out of a bases loaded, no-out situation in the bottom of the sixth. Bruce narrowly missed a homer in the second inning when he doubled off the right-field wall. He scored the Mets' first run on Stephen Strasburg's balk with two outs in the second. 2) Michael Conforto played his first game since injuring his shoulder last Aug. 24 and slugged a tie-breaking two-run homer in the fourth off Strasburg. The 25-year-old also walked and finished 1-for-4 with two runs scored. Yoenis Cespedes homered for the second straight day for his third long ball of the season. 3) DeGrom (2-00 allowed two runs -- one earned -- on four hits and three walks in six innings. He struck out five and managed to retire three straight batters in the sixth after loading the bases with nobody out. 4) Five Mets relievers combined for three scoreless innings and six strikeouts. News and notes... The Mets' 5-1 start is their best since the 2006 squad won eight of their first nine games. New York entered Thursday with a 56-93 (.376) record against the Nationals since the start of 2010. DeGrom improved to 19-8 with a 1.97 ERA in 40 daytime starts. That is the lowest ERA by any pitcher (min. 200 innings) since 1913. He has won five of six decisions while posting a 2.76 ERA in seven career starts at Nationals Park. Since joining the Mets in 2015, Cespedes is hitting .302 with seven doubles, six homers, 13 RBIs and 20 runs scored in 31 games against the Nationals. New York struck out 11 batters Thursday, giving them five double-digit strikeout performances through six games. Seven of the Mets' eight runs were scored with two outs. Of their 30 runs scored this season, 18 have come with two outs. Phillip Evans was optioned to Triple-A Las Vegas to make room for Conforto. Evans was hitless in three at-bats.

Lugo gets the 9th......

A thing of beauty.
