IGT 5/24: NYM In The House of Monk @ MIL 8:10pm ET

Haven't started an IGT yet this season. Let's do this. Brewers coming off their own Arizona sweep, interestingly enough.

Steven Matz (1-3, 4.42) vs Zach Davies (2-3, 4.24), in a starting pitcher rematch of the April 13 game: http://ultimatemets.com/gamedetail.php?gameno=9041

We were 11-1 after that game, and then everything started to fall apart. Maybe this series can turn the karma back around?

I believe in your IGT karma. Let's do this! (I am working a late shift and may be able to tune into a couple of innings via audio in between sessions).

I don't if we known thine enemy, but reliever Josh "Player" Hader has a 17.8 K/9 over 29.1 innings. He strikes out 2 of every 3 guys! Wannabe hitters are batting .086 against him. With Jeremy Jeffress and his equally freakish 0.35 ERA and Corey Knebel closing things out, if they're ahead after, like 5 innings, we're prob fucked. Lets go Mets!

A Matz game where the Mets don't fall behind early. I'M PUMPED!

1. I realize there are no outs, but I'd've sent Rosario.

2. Can we get a ruling on a nickname for Nimmo. I'm thinking The Destroyer or something.

Drooby gets the knockout punch.

No chance. Roasrio held up to make sure the ball would clear the RF and then the ball came off the wall and right back to Yelich.





Cabrera finally gets the Mets a NiSP, that a hit with Nimmo in scoring position. Hell, nobody else gets as far as 2nd on this team so we might as well call it that.

It seems like whenever something good is happening, Nimmo is involved!

And even when something good almost but doesn't quite happen.

Funny. Yellich looks weird in a Brewer uniform and in right field.

I just mean to confess that I was feeling desperate. Good on the Mets for playing it safe and cashing in.

Five-pitch inning for Matz.

This is looking like it could be a game, guys.

Re: IGT 5/24: NYM In The House of Monk @ MIL 8:10pm ET

That five pitch inning gets Matz back to 'average' for pitches/inning (75 thru 5) so he could be good for six or even seven!!

You cannot get Brandon Nimmo out these days.

Two-strike curves out of the zone so as to be waved over and/or brushing its bottom edge to induce grounders... THIS is a Matz I can get behind.

And hey! 6 innings!

I thought Matz might get in trouble there but he is through 6 without damage!

now for the terror of the bullpen

Can't do audio at work, too much else going on. Following via ESPN gameday, which is a pretty weak way to watch a ballgame.

Only four hits by the Crew thru six and of those I remember two bloops plus an infield single.
There were a couple loud outs thrown in here and there but even those were more long-ish fly outs than hard-hit liners.

Re: IGT 5/24: NYM In The House of Monk @ MIL 8:10pm ET

Yeah, the long fly that Cain hit was the only mistake I saw.

And the Mets getting to the vaunted Brew bullpen in Game One. Big.

Five runs in one game, is that allowed?

Rosario could reach and set up Nimmo with the bases loaded.

Eight consecutive times on base by Nim.

What a terrific game. As complete a victory as I can remember.

Maybe Matz can get some consistency.

Still can’t believe Nimmo is a real person. What are the chances the Mets could produce a home grown player that is even more “Aw shucks”-y than David Wright.
