IGT 9/30/2018: MIA @ NYM -- Let's Play 162

Syndergaard vs. Alcantara to put a capper on a season in the crapper, yet this whole Mets baseball every day thing will be missed as soon as it hits us that it's not here. So I'd suggest enjoying whatever is left to enjoy.

First pitch 3:10 PM. Last pitch far too soon.

Trivia question answer: Aaron Heilman.

Nine ballz through six innings for Syndergaard.

God bless Closing Day.

Mets not only winning the game (a 1-0 thriller heading for the 7th) but, seeing as how this game is furthest along of all the simultaneously starting games, they're also 'winning' the race to finish the season first.

The Mets appear to have a tall blonde version of Greg Maddux going today.

"The Mets had the more rest than any team going into 2019 (Miami, their opponents in game 162 still had to fly home) and the Mets used that time to rejuvenate, recuperate, and reassess every facet of their franchise, all of which lead to a World Series Championship."

What was the time on that replay review? Seemed like four or five minutes.
Why is it that the (supposed) rules of procedure always seem to get suspended when Mattingly is managing?

Technically, Mattingly isn't managing today, but yeah, that was a long time.

Meanwhile, Syndergaard heading out to the mound looking for a complete-game 1-0 win on closing day.

Who does he think he is? Terry Leach?

Noah ties for the NL lead in complete games with 2.

So other than the part from the middle of April thru the end of June, Mrs. Lincoln, how did you enjoy the season?

That June was deadly. If they had played .500 in June (and everything else stayed the same) the Mets would have had 85 wins.

We were there! Short Center and his school sang the anthem before the game. Saw metfairy briefly and met Greg in person for the first time.

Not a bad way to end the season.
