IGT 8/8/2020: MIA@NYM: Meet the Pete-rsons

David Peterson (LHP, https://www.mlb.com/player/david-peterson-656849) goes for the Mets against TBD for the Marlins. The Mets struggled against TBD last night so I don't know why tonight will be any different. And if you're still annoyed with last night's loss, this won't cheer you up:

I shudder at the though that maybe he does make everyone around him better.

I prefer to think that he is the luckiest mo-fo on the face of the Earth.

He has a long way to go to catch up to Donald Trump in that department

An actual 2-run rally after two were out and none on!

That may be a first of the season for us ... even as we've given up our share.

OK Larry David fans, a little info as to the joke about improper bowing?

I think tonight's strike zone is more erratic than last night's.

Re: IGT 8/8/2020: MIA@NYM: Meet the Pete-rsons

I believe the bowing was very indirectly related to catchphrase 'not that there's anything wrong with it." I believe Keith giggled at the mention of bending over

Not enough strikes being called



I like the defense Billy Hamilton brings to CF

Season 7, IIRC. He gets into a thing with a New York Japanese restaurant manager who neglects to fasten his soup lid tight enough. The manager apologizes and bows to seal it... only it's a not-very-deep one. When he replicates TGE gesture to a Japanese tourist he accidentally offends, the man is annoyed. He tells Larry a bow of that depth is "a joke, an insult... worse than NO bow."



Practically handing the other team tying-run-on opportunities? Maybe worse.

OK, I think it's time to end using Familia.

Gizzelley, on the other hand, is looking nasty at the moment.

Gary's implication was that the bowing story was a lot dirtier than that. "We have to wait until between innings to tell you Keith ... we're not on HBO"

Why the hell doesn't Billy Hamilton not just choke up and Baltimore chop EVERYTHING?

Re: IGT 8/8/2020: MIA@NYM: Meet the Pete-rsons

Agreed on Billy Hamilton, but my calls for a return to that sort of ball has been quixotic, to say the least.



Nice to see the 3-4-5 hitters all homer in the same game. It must feel good to see it shake out like it was drawn up on the lineup card.



Also nice to see Gselly back after a year in the woods and bringing the good stuff.
