* Except that now I gotta start out with an edit here since I started this thread prior to them scoring tonight in the 3rd. So this should all read through the 2nd inning tonight ...
Over their last 23 innings -- beginning with the frame after upping their lead to 10-5 in the 6th inning on Friday [and going through Monday's 2nd inning] -- the NYM 'Noffense' has scored just one run
- This despite having 35 base runners during that span
- In only four of those 23 innings were they retired 1-2-3
- they had one baserunner in a frame six times
- they had two baserunners eight times
- they had the bases loaded three different times ... which included the one time they scored, btw that came via a Sac Fly, not a hit.
- So think about that for a second: having two or three runners on base was more common than none or one (11 to 10). That's unusual even when you're scoring often!
- There were 11 ABs with a runner on 3rd during this span with, obviously, only one of them scoring. Five of those 11 ABs came with <2 outs, six others after two were down
There are probably some more (ugly) factoids I could dig up about this stretch ... but for now the good thing about all this is that since this suckitude ended while I was creating this thread, I'm going to claim
credit for ending the drought.
