Eaton Evans

Not exactly the NLCS, but did Adam Eaton earn villain status (if not Utley-level) for his hard slide into Phil Evans?

I'm (ridiculously) blacked out of Mets-Nats games, so I didn't see it. I'd like to say I saw the Mets showing a nu fire against the Braves last night. Maybe if I squinted harder.

I thought it was pretty kosher, the booth did too (in case you want a more
professional and unbiased opinion)...

Mickey seemed to think he had cause to complain.

I believe they reviewed it, if he further beefed afterward I guess just
sticking up for your guy. If he didn't, it would be a 'thing' for a week the
way things are going.

Re: Eaton Evans

I thought Adam Eaton's slide was clean and legal. Middle infielders need to protect themselves and avoid incoming slides as much as possible. Evans made zero attempt to avoid the slide he had to know was coming.

Re: Eaton Evans

The only other opponent to earn Utley -like status was Roger, the fat coward, bat-tossing, motherfucker, Clemens for a dangerous act that should have gone punished.
This wasn't even close.
It was solid, hard-nosed, old school baseball we sometimes wish the Mets would play.

Seemed like cricket to me. Hard cricket, but still... above board.
