What a weird half inning for the Mets here. Not that I'm complaining.

That's four K's (two pair of two) in two different RiSP situations with the guys you wanted up:

-- Nimmo & McNeil w/2nd & 3rd/one-out;

-- then McNeil & Alonso w/sacks loaded/one-out



Coulda busted the game wide open in either/or

Sweet save by the Wheelman.



Let's get him some support. Maybe learn all about that scoring-without-a-homer thing.

So I've had this pet peeve all season long but I've been keeping my mouth shut about it -- until now! Could youse IGT starters post the time of the start of the game going forward in what little remains of this season?



Thanks. Jeez, I thought this was a night time start.

Re: IGT 9/21 The Wheels of the Bus go round and round

Kimbrel has been REALLY bad for the Cubs this year.

Back to back HRs (on back to back pitches) to the Cards to start the 9th (and then a walk)

9-8 Cards, still batting (in a game that's already well over 4 hours old btw)

Finally a caught stealing bails him out.



Cubs coming up for their half of the 9th

Ok, now that we know our plan for not announcing start times has served its purpose, this is the point where we intentionally start posting incorrect times just to screw BatMags up.



I did post this on the secret part of the forum where he can't read it, right?

You think II didnt already think of that? Youse probably PM each others with the right start time so no one else misses the game.

That last pitch was not a strike and McNeil got screwed on the check-swing. Mickey does nothing except PH for a player who gets on about 1/2 of the time. 8 games left for Mickey.

Did you guys see the interview with Gelbs? My son and brother were on TV we were told. Maybe my sister in law too.

Humble. Gracious. Friendly. Everything you'd expect them to be. After our initial greetings we left them alone figuring they want to enjoy the game but they kept striking up conversation with us. Talked to my son when he saw he was keeping score. Asked if he played. Let that sink in. I'm talking to Pete Alonso's dad and he's asking about my son's baseball team. His mother was sweet and handed out orange pom poms. We all went ga ga over the baby sitting one row in front of us. With the exception of the play on the field we had the time of our lives.

I hope you handed him your card. I'm sure his son will be needing an attorney or two this off-season.
