Turner leads off with a homer. I can see why nobody cared to start a thread.

Good to see Conforto back in center.

C'mon, guyz! Big game!

Game leadoff HRs? -- Check!
Hitting into GiDPs after getting 2-on with one out? -- Check!
Getting smoked by backup catchers? -- Check!

Completely forgot about this game and then checked the score. In some ways, it's like the off-season has already started.

Ron: "You have to make that throw 99% of the time"

Me: And Met infielders make that throw about 60% of the time

At least this upcoming GiDP (runners on 1st & 3rd) will result in a run.

Check!




Mets have had two runners on base four separate times in the last game and a half and have GiDP'd in the next at bat in every one of them!

Another bad throw to 1st (Reyes) on a routine grounder, only this time with the pitcher (half) running there was enough time to make it not matter.

Well, the GiDP streak was broken.
Still had to offer up an out in order to plate a run, but it's progress.

After the Sac Fly, Dusty challenged Cespedes leaving 3rd too early, considered challenging the slide at the plate, and I think he asked about challenging each of the pitches during the AB which
led to the Sac Fly but was told he couldn't.

So we broke the streak temporarily but now it's 5 times in 6 opportunities.
I don't think you could duplicate that if trying to do so.

Not content to merely go 0-7 w/RiSP, they've managed to make 10 outs in those situations with 3 their GiDPs and have just one ball out of the infield (Flores's Sac Fly).

Seaweed picked a bad time to surrender that Jack. I felt we still had a shot

Good afternoon for Cespedes, anyway. He looks better than he has since April.

Keith is coming off knee surgery, the machine feeds a wrap that covers his repaired hinge.

Either that or he just likes to keep his cool.
