Nimmo is hot (How hot? He's 1982-Phoebe-Cates hot) right now. So yes, please Mickey, do bat him sixth.

batting ahead of Reyes, so he'll not get a signle pitch worth swinging at. Heck, I bet he gets hit twice.

The stream I am pulling down doesn't show that, it's just the video. But the announcers themselves are pretty bad.

Also, I am all done with FB. It's all memes and whining and nonsense. I don't want it any more. The longer I go without it the less it bothers me. I'm really not missing much. I keep up with folks on Twitter and Instagram, and, you know, real life interactions. And the CPF!

The Phillies throwback uniforms look great. The odd part is that they are -- were? -- road uniforms and the game is in Philly.

Watching Mark Leiter, Jr., I'm remembering some ambitious MoFo poster who wanted to start a new tradition, so that every time Al Leiter started, the crowd would greet him by all lighting cigarette lighters together.

Love that phielding support the Phillie pitchers are getting.

Letting Oswalt bat makes me think Mickey might keep him in for at least another inning.

Conforto was Roman Quinn's first batter, so for a few minutes there, the poor Phillies dude had an infinite ERA.

Re: DH G1 IGT 08/16 - Mets at Phillies - BOC (not that one)

So this is now 33 runs in less than 24 hours and less than two full games (16 innings).
Did they score that many in all of June?



Answer: Yes they did, they actually scored 89 runs during the [u:1iy9e7tm]26 games[/u:1iy9e7tm] played in the month of June (3.42 RS/G).
On the other hand, it took them until [u:1iy9e7tm]their 15th game[/u:1iy9e7tm] of the month [u:1iy9e7tm]on June 18th[/u:1iy9e7tm] to pass the 33 mark which they did by laying a 12-spot on the Rox - and, yes, it was in Coors.
Take away that four game series in Coors, where they tallied 12, 8, 8, and 4 runs, and the June vs last 24 hours ratio of runs scored is just 57 to 33

My wife is all, "Too bad it's against the Phiillies. It oughta be against the Nats."

The Phils are higher up in the standings, but she has a point. The Mets owe this hurting to Washington.
