Yes folks, we have to play tonight -- IGT 7/24/18

Game 2 vs the Padres. Lefties all around: Matz vs rookie Eric Lauer -- 16 ML starts; 77.2 IP; 5-6; 4.87; 1.67 WHiP!, but better lately. Has never faced the Mets so I'm going to assume that he's never taken a no-hitter into the 6th inning either.

I'd like to see Mesoraco as a Met next season

Citi Field getting buzzed by air traffic like ol' Shea. Padre pitcher seems to throw hard.

Bautista not very swingy.

Obviously I screwed up by announcing Matz as the starter instead of Wheeler. The oddity was that I was checking my facts when I had a weather-related internet interruption and I thought this post had died before ever being born. Meanwhile, on that Bautista catch, there was some chick in one of those seats behind the netting that missed the entire play even as it was happening 15 feet in front of her. Not quite sure what she was looking at instead.

Ron: "Now we see the repercussions of the replay that no one though of when they put the rule in" [u:tub6i5mv]I[/u:tub6i5mv] thought of them, Ron, and was constantly told that such 'what-if' calls would never happen and/or that they wouldn't matter, and that if I could just get my head out of the 1870s I'd enjoy all the 'progress' that the game is making.

Way to screw both teams on one play, replay review umps.

Let's hear it for the Conforto revival!

1963 batboy Paul Lozito in the house, and breaking down on camera.

Two-out hitting. Tack-on runs. Not sure who it is wearing Mets uniforms tonight, but let's bring 'em back tomorrow.

Keith is correct about the beginning of that '84 season: 9 straight on the road to open the season and 14 of the first 17 They hit Cincy, Atlanta, Houston, and Chicago all before the home opener. And then after 3 vs Expos at Shea, it was off to Philly (3) & Montreal (2)

Fifteen Padres in a row. Anybody they get for Wheelie better have some Griffey DNA.

Or don't trade him.

Phil Hughes doesn't look like he's missed many meals in the last few years.

Let's shut this circus down, guys.

seawolf17 Jul 25 2018 01:38 AM Re: Yes folks, we have to play tonight -- IGT 7/24/18

How about we not find out who our new closer is tonight? Just win this fucker.

d'Kong76 Jul 25 2018 01:41 AM Re: Yes folks, we have to play tonight -- IGT 7/24/18

Wow, books at 9:42.

Edgy MD Jul 25 2018 01:42 AM Re: Yes folks, we have to play tonight -- IGT 7/24/18

Way to finish, McNeil.

Gary discussed the reality that the Mets have two guys atop the bullpen pyramid who are 1A and 1B, almost suggesting it's a problem that they're both former starters who have demonstrated an ability to effectively go multiple innings.
