Starting late here. Mets just went up 3-1 on a two-run homer by José Reyes.

Amed Rosario already two walks into his day.

Austin Jackson looks like he could be José Reyes' more serious brother.

Wei-Yin Chen's batting form makes Bartolo Colón look like David Wright.

Funny how you can associate names. When I saw "Chen (L)" pitching, I thought, "Wow! Bruce Chen has GOT to be as old as Bartolo Colon".

Frazier saves the lead as Keith gets a reappearance of the Lou Brock graphic.

Kapowie by Conforto.

Mets lead 4-2 with only 4 hits.

12 innings pitched for the Marlins pen so far this series: Mets have 2 runs (the Plawecki 2-RBI single in Game 1) on just 4 hits off that crew

Is Sierra using Kate Bush for walkup music?

Gary talked about the Phillies sending down Zach Eflin (who the Mets will see on Thursday) to give them an extra player on the bench: http://www.philly.com/philly/sports/phi ... 80811.html (there is a longer look in The Athletic but that's behind a paywall). As fans, we would appreciate the Mets thinking this way (a day off, send a SP down so you have another player on the bench or another reliever) but we forget that the major leaguer loses money and service time.

Screw you Mattingly and the umps that enable his non-stop BS. The only manager that bitches about calls in spring training.

Gary & Keith seem to forget that Mattingly always gets multiple challenges per game.

And, the obligatory leadoff hit by the opposition in the bottom of the ninth inning.

Damn, that was nice. Not sure why Jose punched himself in the head twice to celebrate.

Duh, cuz it was only two outs.
He reserves the rare triple punch for triple plays.

Definitely a lot of CAHNfidence in throws coming across the diamond from Frazier.
Haven't necessarily had that from recent 3Bmen: Flores, Reyes, etc, and brief glimpses of Wright

Yup, taking two back-to-back series, though the sweep was well within reach.

Only during games in Houston when he has to run uphill.

That's right.
Depending on how you want to look at it, tomorrow is either a series by itself or the completion of a shortened 1-1 series.

I believe this is the first isolated Subway Series game in the 22-year history of the monstrosity. Four previous rainouts were made up amid a succeeding set (2000, 2003, 2008, each two-stadium ordeals) or day-nighted into an ongoing set (2004).
