Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT (May 6)

Johnny Lunchbucket May 06 2019 08:17 PM

Paddack already looking like he's going to throw a no hitter

nymr83 May 06 2019 08:18 PM IGT 5/6 - NO RESPECT!

No Respect for the reigning CY Young award winner that is. The Mets are even money with deGrom on the mound!

So this Paddack guy's haircut: Intentional, or the result of some sort of industrial accident?

Edgy MD May 06 2019 08:21 PM Re: IGT, 5/6: They Go to San Diego

Mets eat it in order in the first, striking out twice. Some guy named deGrom takes the mound for the Mets.

Frayed Knot May 06 2019 08:24 PM Re: IGT, 5/6: They Go to San Diego

Should I start an IGT too? I feel like I'd be the only one if I don't.

Edgy MD May 06 2019 08:28 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

Frazier breaks up the perfect game! And it isn't even Tuesday!!

Johnny Lunchbucket May 06 2019 08:30 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

More like RETCH-a-varria, amirite?!?!!

Edgy MD May 06 2019 08:31 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

That was a shite at-bat. "I'm-a gonna chase the pitches that even Rosario won't chase!"

Frayed Knot May 06 2019 08:31 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

I got a good idea: Until further notice, lay off the high fastball

Fman99 May 06 2019 08:37 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

I'm already friggin zapped. Stupid curved planet.

The dream of the '90s is alive in MLB hair. This Paddack is... a bit of a Clemensy redass, isn't he?

LWFS May 06 2019 09:09 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

How the hell are we through five innings with 9 Ks... at 55 pitches for Peppermint Fratty over here? Make him work, at least, you dummies.

Frayed Knot May 06 2019 09:10 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

Well if you're going to try and stay up through a west coast start, having them 1/2 way through the game in under an hour is a nice start.

LWFS May 06 2019 09:12 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

Fair point. And hey, the other team scored, so it'll likely be over shortly.

nymr83 May 06 2019 09:13 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

now deGrom will need TWO solo shots to win this game.

Edgy MD May 06 2019 09:15 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

This infield is wicked fast.

Johnny Lunchbucket May 06 2019 09:59 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

We really need to be able to score again.

Johnny Lunchbucket May 06 2019 10:01 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

Go to Syracuse, Brandon

Frayed Knot May 06 2019 10:06 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

So this -- Alonso vs Stamen -- is pretty much our chance tonight, huh?

Edgy MD May 06 2019 10:10 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

Even against a performance like this, McNeil gets two hits. More Mets need to look at what he's doing right.

Johnny Lunchbucket May 06 2019 10:18 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

Well this has been a waste of time

Edgy MD May 06 2019 10:35 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT

Getting arsed by Josh Hader is one thing. These guys throw Craig Stammen out the there to finish up, an the Mets can't touh him?

While one streak, the losing, reaches four, another snaps. Enough circumstances converged to put me to sleep before first pitch and not wake me until after last pitch, telecast ensuing in front of me notwithstanding. First Mets game I've missed in its entirety since July 29, 2010. The streak was 1,388 regular-season games (plus 15 postseason contests). The record was 669-719 (plus 8-7). If only the sound of Met lumber had shaken me from my slumber.

Yeah I immediately wanted to see him step into a set bear trap.

I feel like this streak is worthy of a thread split. Yeoman's work my friend.



Can you clarify the streak?



Obviously, attending in person and watching on TV count. How about listening by radio? Checking Gamecast at work? Checking the score by phone?

I feel like this streak is worthy of a thread split. Yeoman's work my friend. Can you clarify the streak? Obviously, attending in person and watching on TV count. How about listening by radio? Checking Gamecast at work? Checking the score by phone? At the game; watching on TV; and/or listening on radio. I guess a live, ongoing accounting via Gamecast would be legit in this day and age, but it never came down to that as my only option during the period in question. Getting the score intermittently via a third-party source, as in "Mets 3 Nats 2 T-5" flashing on my phone, wouldn't be enough, though it would also be better than nothing. I'd liken that kind of update to calls to Sportsphone when I was in college or peering at the ESPN crawl from the edge of an airport bar while waiting to board a flight, and though that sort of grasping for in-progress details is an inevitable part of the fan experience, I never thought of those instances as consuming the game live. Basically, if I could say "I caught at least part of the game," it counted (usually it was most or all of the game). On May 6, 2019, I couldn't say it.

Centerfield May 07 2019 04:53 PM Re: Should we even bother to have an IGT IGT (May 6)

That's a pretty amazing streak. There have already been two games this year where I was caught up in something and realized that I had missed the game. Checked the score after and saw they lost both.
